Detergent And Rinse Aid; Detergent - Kenmore 722.1435 Series Use & Care Manual

Detergent

Add dishwashing detergent to the main wash compartment
until the level is between the lines marked 15 and 25.
• Fill to over the 25 line for hard water or heavily soiled
loads.
• Fill to the 15 line for soft water or lightly soiled loads.
NOTE: Do not use detergent if running a rinse cycle.
■ Use automatic dishwasher detergent only. Add powdered,
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. Slide the lid
closed until it clicks.
High quality dishwasher detergent tablets or packs have
been proven to be better than powdered, liquid, or gel
detergents at reducing filming on dishes. Use of tablets and
packs will start to reduce or eliminate white film on dishes
over time. The rinse aid contained in the tablets or packs
also minimizes buildup of film caused by excess detergent.
