NOTE: It is normal for cover to open partially
when dispensing detergent. The cover will
open fully when the door is opened.
How much detergent to use
The amount of detergent to use depends on
the hardness of your water. If too little is
used, dishes won?t be clean. However, if too
much is used in soft water, glassware will
begin to etch. Hard-third step
Medium-second step
l HARD-Fill one or both sections to the top Soft-first step
of the third step (3 tablespoons) if water
hardness is 8 or more grains per gallon, or
136 or more parts per million.
. MEDIUM-Fill one or both sections to the
top of the second step (2 tablespoons) if
water hardness is 5 to 7 grains per gallon,
or 85 to 119 parts per million.
l SOFT-Fill one or both sections to the top
of the first step (1 tablespoon) if water
hardness is 0 to 4 grains per gallon, or 0 to
68 parts per million.
Find out your water?s hardness by asking
your local water department, water softener
company or county extension agent.
Using the rinse agent dispenser
Rinse agent dispenser
Keep the rinse agent dispenser filled with a
liquid rinse agent. A rinse agent greatly
improves the drying of dishes by helping
water flow off them during the last rinse. A
rinse agent also keeps water from forming
droplets and drying as spots.
Release of a small amount of rinse agent
into the rinse water is automatic in the final
rinse of each cycle. For best drying results,
check the dispenser periodically to see if it
needs refilling.
