detergent cup.
The window next to the dispenser cap indicates when
the rinse aid reservoir needs to be refilled. When the
level of rinse aid is below the indicator marks and the
window is nearly dear, it is time to refill the dispenser.
Check the dispenser monthJy.

the "MAX" setting for hard water. Set the lever anywhere
between these amounts as needed to get the best results.
