Detergent And Rinse Aid; Detergent - Kenmore ULTRACLEAN 665.1470 Series Use & Care Manual

Detergent

NOTE: If you do not plan to run a wash cycle soon, run a rinse
cycle. Do not use detergent.
Use automatic dishwasher detergent only. Add powder,
liquid or tablet detergent just before starting a cycle.
Fresh automatic dishwasher detergent results in better
cleaning. Store tightly closed detergent container in a cool,
dry place.
Premeasured Detergents
Many detergents now come in premeasured forms (gel packs,
tablets, or powder packs). These forms are suitable for all
hardness and soil levels. Always place premeasured detergents
in main compartment of the dispenser and slide lid to close.
To close lid
Place selected detergent in
the dispenser. Place finger,
as shown, and slide lid
closed. Press firmly until
it clicks.
Using high quality dishwasher detergent tablets or packs has
been proven better than powder, liquid or gel detergents at
reducing filming on dishes. Using tablets and packs over time
will start to reduce or eliminate white film. Also, by using a rinse
aid, you can minimize repeat buildup of white film.

IMPORTANT: Extremely hard water mineral deposits (15 grains
per U.S. gallon or more) can cause damage to your dishwasher
and make it difficult to achieve good results. A water softener is
recommended to avoid damage and achieve good results. You
may bring your water samples to Sears to check hardness level.
NOTE: Follow instructions on the package when using other
dishwasher detergent types.
