LOADING THE DISHWASHER
The dishwasher is designed to receive a standard “4 piece”
plate setting consisting of the following:
- 4 Dinner Plates
- 4 Bread & Butter Plates
- 4 Fruite Bowls
- 4 Cups and Saucers
- 4 Dinner Forks
- 4 Dinner Knives
- 4 Salad Forks
- 4 Teaspoons
- 2 Serving Spoons
- 1 Serving Fork
NOTE: For ease of loading/unloading large size
dinner plates from the dish rack it may be necessary
to (temporarily) remove the silverware basket. When
loading/unloading is complete, return the silverware
basket to it’s original position.
Preparing Your Dishes For Washing
- Scrape off all solid food particles from the dishes.
- Remove excessive quantities of oil or grease.
- Empty any liquids from glasses and cups.
- All dishes should be thoroughly rinsed before being placed
inside the dishwasher.
- Arrange all items with recessed or curved sections on a
slant to drain water away.
- Cups, pots, glasses etc. should be placed upside down.
NOTE: Dishes with dried-on foods are more diffi cult to
wash and may not come clean in a normal wash cycle.
Your dishwasher is not a “waste disposal unit”,
clean off large particles of food sediments before
placing dishes in your dishwasher.
USING THE RIGHT DETERGENT
Use only detergent specifi cally made for use in dishwashers,
as other types will cause over-sudsing. If your detergent
is old and/or lumpy, throw it away. Old detergent loses it’s
washing power. Lumpy detergent won’t dissolve. The amount
of detergent you use depends if your water is “hard” or “soft”.
The recessed detergent area is located on the inside door
panel and will hold approximately 7 grams of detergent.
NOTE: Hard water requires more detergent to get dishes
clean. Soft water requires less detergent to get dishes
clean.
USING A RINSING AGENT
You can help prevent unsightly spots on dishes and glassware
and reduce drying time by using a rinse agent. A rinse agent is
specially formulated to rinse away food and detergent residues
that can be left behind on your dishes. Used regularly, a rinse
agent will automatically provide you with cleaner dishes every
time you wash.
- First add the rinse agent into the Rinse Agent Measuring
Container that came with your dishwasher.
- To fi ll the rinse agent dispenser, unscrew the dispenser cap
located on the inside back wall of the washing tub. Use the
Measuring Container to slowly add the rinse agent into the
dispenser until it just reaches the bottom of the fi lling cap
inside of the dispenser opening. Replace the cap. The dis-
penser automatically releases approx. 90 cc of the rinse
agent into the fi nal rinse water at the end of the wash
cycle.
