Using the rinse agent dispenser
A rinse agent prevents water from forming
droplets that can dry as spots or streaks. It
also improves drying by allowing water to
drain off the dishes during the final rinse by
releasing a small amount of the rinse agent
into the rinse water. Your dishwasher is
designed to use a liquid rinse agent. Do not
use a solid or bar-type rinse agent.
Filling the dispenser
The rinse agent dispenser holds 5.2 fluid
ounces of rinse agent. Under normal
conditions, this will last for about three
months. You do not have to wait until the
dispenser is empty to refill it. Try to keep it
full, but be careful not to overfill it.
!. Make sure the dishwasher door is
fully open.
2. Turn the dispenser knob to Open and lift
it out.
3. Add rinse agent until the indicator window
looks full. If you overfill, the excess rinse
agent may overflow the dispenser and
cause oversudsing during the wash cycle.
4. Clean up any spilled rinse agent with a
damp cloth.
5. Replace the dispenser knob and turn it
to Closed.

calcium (hard water) spots on dishes, try a
higher setting (4, 5, or 6).
