Dishwasher Dispenser
........ & Detergents (continued)
Rinse Aid
Rinse aid greatly
improves
drying
and reduces
water
spots and filming.
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. On models with
a STATUS
window,
LO will appear at the end of
the cycle indicating
that it is time to refill.
To add liquid rinse aid, turn dispenser
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 setting.
Factors Affecting
Performance
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.
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
dishwasher:
•
Turn on hot water faucet
nearest
dishwasher
for several
minutes
to clear cool water from
pipes.
•
Hold a candy or meat thermometer
in stream
of
water to check the temperature.
•
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.
