Using the dishwasher.

Checkthe WaterTemperature

The entering water must be at least 120°E and not more than

t50°E, for effective cleaning and to prevent dish damage_ Check

the water temperature with a candy or meat thermometer. Turn on

the hot water faucet nearest the dishwasher, place the thermometer

in a glass and let the water run continuously into the glass until the

temperature stops rising. Adjust your water' heater, if needed°

Usinga RinseAgent

A rinse agent, such as JET-DRY, makes water flow off the dishes

quicldy thereby reducing water spotting.

Fill the rinse agent dispenser' ...... . ..... :: . / .

inside the opening. Replace cap.

remove the cap and look into the _

dispenser; On some models, the _--_")_ :_

dispenser can be checked by

pressing the clear center of the _ • .....

fill cap 2 or3 dines. If rinse agent

fills the center of the fill cap, you

have enough.

A full dispenser should last about 3 months,

If rinse agent spills, wipe #up immediately. It can keep your detergent

fromworking.

t2

ProperUseof Detergent

Use only detergent specifically made for use in dishwashers, Keep

your detergent fresh and dry, Don't put powder detergent into the

dispenser until you're ready to wash dishes.

The anaount of detergent to use depends on whether your water is

hard or soft. With hard water, you need extra detergent,, With soft

water; you need less detergent.

Protect your dishes and dishwasher by contacting your water

department and asking how hard your water is. Twelve or more

grains is extremely hard water, A water softener is recommended.

Without it, lime can build up in the water' valve, which could stick

while open and cause flooding, Too much detergent with soft water

can cause a permanent cloudiness of glassware, called etchin9

You'll find two detergent dispensers on the OpenCup

inside door of your dishwasher. All wash cycles

require detergent in the main cup, Wash cycles

with two washes will also use the open cup_

Be sure the Dia! is at OFFposidon before

adding detergent° Otherwise, the detergent

cup will not close and latch properly° Add

detergent then close the main cup°

MainCup

NOTE:To open detergent cup aft,er it has

been closed, simply turn the detergent cup :::::

handle counter-clockwise until it releases_ ;

A snapping sound may be heard. :: l :'15:::}

ForgettoAdd a Dish?

A forgotten dish can be added any time before the main wash.

For best dishwashing results, follow these loading guidelines. Features and

appearance of racks and silverware baskets may vary from your model

The upper' rack. is for glasses, cups and saucers.

Cups and glasses fit best along the sides, This is

also a secure place for dishwasher-safe plasdcso A

cup shelf (on some models) may be placed in the

LowerRack

When bading the lower rack, do not load largeplatters or

trays in the front right comer Theymay prevent detergent

from circulating during the wash cycle.

The lower rack is best used for plates, saucers,

and cookware. Large items such as broiler pans

and racks should go along the sides. Load

platters, pots and bowls along the sides, in

corners, or in the back. The soiled side of items

should face the center of the rack°

Fold<lown fingers (on some models) provide

flexibility for extra large and hard-to-fit items,

Silverware Basket

Put flat, rare in the removable basket Mth fork

and knife handles Lip tO protect your hands_

Place spoons in the basket with handles dowaao

Mix knives, forks and spoons so they don't nest

together. Distribute evenly. Small plastic items,

such as measuring spoons and lids from small

containers, should go in the bottom of the

silverware basket with silverware on top.

To increase the flexibility of the lower rack., the

silverware basket may be split. Grasp the basket

at opposite corners and slide apart. The basket

sections should be placed in the lower rack by

hanging them on the top hoop°

A security cell cover (on

some models) hinged in

Does YourDishwasherHave anAk Gap?

An air gap protects your dishwasher against water

backing up into it ifa drain clogs, The air gap is not

a part of the dishwasher. It is not covered by your

The air gap is easy to clean.
