Hot water dissolves and activates the dishwasher detergent. Hot water also dissolves grease on dishes and helps glasses dry spot-free.
For best dishwashing results, water should be 120°F (49°C) as it enters the dishwasher. Loads may not wash as well if the water
temperature is too low.
Additional efficiency tips
• To save water, energy and time, only scrape dishes. Do not rinse dishes before putting them into the dishwasher.
• Use a delay feature to run your dishwasher during off-peak hours. Local utility providers recommend avoiding heavy
usage of energy at certain times of day.
• During the summer, run your dishwasher at night. This reduces daytime heat buildup in the kitchen.
• Use a rinse aid to improve drying.
