DISHWASHER USE

PROPER USE OF DETERGENT

Use only detergent specifically made for use in dishwashers. Cascade, Cascade Complete
and Electrasol Automatic dishwashing detergents, and Jet-Dry and Cascade Crystal Clear
rinse agents have been approved for use in all GE dishwashers. Keep your detergent fresh
and dry. Don't put powder detergent into the dispenser until you're ready to wash dishes.
All wash cycles except RINSE ONLY require detergent in the main and pre-wash cup.

Detergent Dispenser

The detergent dispenser has 2 sections. The small Pre-Wash section empties detergent
into dishwasher when you close the door.
The larger Main Wash section automatically empties detergent into dishwasher during the
wash. (See the "Cycle Selection Charts")
• Use automatic dishwashing detergent only. Other detergents can produce excessive
suds that can overflow out of the dishwasher and reduce washer performance.
• Add detergent just before starting a cycle.
• Store tightly closed detergent in a cool, dry place. Fresh automatic dishwasher
detergent results in better cleaning.
NOTE: Do not use detergent with a rinse cycle.
