Filling The Detergent Dispenser
1. USE AUTOMATIC DISHWASHING
DETERGENTS ONLY. Never use soap,
hand dishwashing detergent, laundry
detergent or laundry enzyme products.
They will produce excessive suds and
slow down the wash arm action which
could cause flooding.
2. Add detergent to the dispenser
immediately before starting. Detergent
exposed to moisture over a period of time
may become caked and ineffective. An
open box of detergent should stay fresh
for about one month.
3. Fill the dispenser with the proper amount
of detergent, and close the compartment.
Fill the Main Wash compartment for the
Light/China Wash Cycle when the
dinnerware is lightly soiled.
Add detergent to both the Prewash and
Main Wash compartments for the Light/
China Wash Cycle, the Normal Wash Cycle
and the Pots/Pans Cycle when dishes are
heavily soiled.
How Much Detergent To Use
Personal Injury Hazard
Dishwasher detergents and rinse
agents can be harmful if taken
internally. Store these products out
of children's reach.
ALWAYS use at least one tablespoon of
automatic dishwashing detergent in Main
Wash compartment because there are
ingredients in detergent to help protect your
dinnerware. The amount of detergent
needed depends on the amount of food soil
on the dishes and the hardness of water. If
you have hard water, you will have to use
more detergent than if you have soft water.
Excessive amounts of detergent combined
with soft water may cause etching of glass.
Contact your local water utility, area water
softening company or state university
extension agent to determine whether your
water is hard or soft.
