Rinse Aid
Rinse aid greatly improves drying and
reduces water spots. With it water "sheets"
off dishes rather than forming water droplets
that cling and leave spots.
A dispenser, located next to the detergent cup,
automatically releases a measured amount of
rinse aid during the last rinse. If spotting and
poor drying are problems, increase the amount
of rinse aid dispensed by rotating the dial to a
higher number. The dial is located under the
dispenser cap. The indicator will be dark when
full and will show clear when it is time to refill.
To add liquid rinse aid, turn dispense cap 1/4
turn counterclockwise and lift out. Pour in
rinse aid until liquid touches the indicated fill
level Replace cap.
Do not overfill since this can cause
oversudsing. Wipe up any spills with a damp
cloth.
The dispenser holds enough for 35 to 140
washes, depending on the dial setting.

FACTORS AFFECTING PERFORMANCE
Indicator
Adjustable Setting
Water Pressure
The hot water line to dishwasher must provide
water pressure between 20 and 120 psi.
Low Water pressure may occur when laundry
or showers are in operation. If you experi-
ence poor wash performance you may need to
wait until water use is reduced before starting
dishwasher.
Water Temperature
Hot water is needed for best dishwashing and
drying results. Water entering dishwasher
should be at least 120° F (49° C) to give
satisfactory results.
To check water temperature entering dish-
washer:
•
Turn on hot water faucet nearest dish-
washer for several minutes to clear cool
water from pipes.
•
Hold a candy or meat thermometer in
the water stream to check the tempera-
ture.
•
If temperature is below 120° F (49° C),
have a qualified person raise the hot
water heater thermostat setting.
IMPORTANT
Before starting a cycle, run hot water
to clear cool water from pipe.
The HEAT DRY option in combination
with rinse aid will enhance drying perfor-
mance. The energy required to use the
HEAT DRY option costs pennies per cycle.
You may choose not to select the HEAT
DRY option; however you will have items
in your dish load that will not be com-
pletely dry at the end of the cycle.
