NOTE
For very hard water, detergent alone may not be enough. A water softener is recommended to improve
water quality and dishwashing performance. Try adding more detergent at the beginning of the main
wash portion of the cycle. As a rule, use 1 teaspoon for each grain above 12. Unlatch the door, open
slowly add detergent to the bottom of the tub. Close the door to latch and the diswasher will continue
through the cycle.
