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.
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.
