etc.) can pit or corrode silverware. Run a rinse cycle if you do

DISHWASHER USE
The detergent dispenser has 2 sections. The smaller Pre-Wash
section empties detergent into the dishwasher when you close
the door.
1. Cover latch
2. Main Wash section
3. Pre-Wash section
4. Cover
The larger Main Wash section automatically empties detergent
into the dishwasher during the wash. (See the "Cycle Selection
Charts.")
• Use automatic dishwashing detergent only. Other detergents
can produce excessive suds that can overflow out of the
dishwasher and reduce washing performance.
• Add detergent just before starting cycle.
• Store tightly closed detergent in a cool, dry place. Fresh
automatic dishwasher detergent results in better cleaning.
NOTE: Do not use detergent if you have selected a rinse cycle.
2. Fill the Main Wash section with detergent. See the following
section "How much detergent to use."
3. Fill the Pre-Wash section, if needed. (See "Cycle Selection
Charts.")
4. Close the dispenser cover.
The cover will open during the cycle to dispense the
detergent.
How much detergent to use
• The amount of detergent to use depends on the hardness of
your water and the type of detergent. If you use too little,
dishes won't be clean. If you use too much in soft water,
glassware will etch.
• Water hardness can change over a period of time. Find out
your water's hardness by asking your local water department,
water softener company, or county extension agent.
