Dishwasher Efficiency Tips; Detergent And Rinse Aid; Add Detergent - Kenmore Ultra Wash 665.1454 Series Use & Care Manual

Cleaning
IMPORTANT: Do not use wire brush, scouring pad, etc., as they
may damage the filters.
Rinse filter under running water until most soils are removed.
If you have hard-to-remove soils or calcium deposits from
hard water, a soft brush may be required.
Filter Reinstallation
1. Noting the previous illustrations, place the lower filter under the locating tabs in
the bottom of the dishwasher, so the round opening for the upper filter assembly
lines up with the round opening in the bottom of the tub.
2. Insert the upper filter assembly into the circular opening in the lower filter.
3. Slowly rotate the filter clockwise until it drops into place. Continue to rotate until
the filter is locked into place. If the filter is not fully seated (still turns freely),
continue to turn the filter clockwise until it drops and locks into place.
NOTE: The upper filter assembly arrow does not have to align with the arrow in
the lower filter as long as the filter is locked.
IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to dishwasher, do not operate your dishwasher without the Ultra Wash™
installed. Be sure the lower filter is securely in place and the upper filter assembly is locked into place. If the upper filter
assembly turns freely, it is not locked into place.
Hot water dissolves and activates the dishwasher detergent. Hot water also dissolves grease on dishes and helps glasses dry
spot-free. For best dishwashing results, water should be 120°F (49°C) as it enters the dishwasher. Loads may not wash as well
if the water temperature is too low.
Additional efficiency tips
To save water, energy, and time, only scrape dishes. Do not rinse dishes before putting them into the dishwasher.
■
Use a delay feature to run your dishwasher during off-peak hours. Local utility providers recommend avoiding heavy
■
usage of energy at certain times of day.
During the summer, run your dishwasher at night. This reduces daytime heat buildup in the kitchen.
■
Use a rinse aid to improve drying.

DISHWASHER EFFICIENCY TIPS

DETERGENT AND RINSE AID

To replace upper filter assembly
Premeasured Detergents
High quality premeasured tablets and packs are recommended
for improved performance.
Quality tablets and packs have 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. They are suitable for all hardness
and soil levels. Also, by using a rinse aid, you can minimize
repeat buildup of white film (not all packs and tablets contain
rinse aid). Always place premeasured detergents in the main
compartment and slide the lid closed.
NOTE: Follow instructions on the package when using other
dishwasher detergent types. See the complete owner's manual
for more details about powders, liquids, and gels.
