Checking for Correct Chemical Concentration

Detergent - 0.192 oz. per gallon of wash water (1.5
ml per liter).
Rinse aid - 0.038 oz. per gallon of rinse water (0.3
ml per liter).
If the detergent setting is too low, the ware will not
be adequately cleaned. In some cases, this can
be corrected by simply selecting a longer cycle
time (using the Cycle Select II, Extended or Cycle
Select III, Heavy buttons), but the detergent
concentration may also need to be adjusted.
If the rinse aid setting is too low, spotting or
streaking may occur on the ware.
If too much of either chemical is added, the extra
chemicals will be wasted. This is often difficult to
detect except by determining how long your
chemical supplies last. If the chemicals are being
exhausted quickly, you may need to have the
chemical concentration adjusted.
