DISHWASHER DISPENSER & DETERGENTS
Filing the Detergent Dispenser
The detergent dispenser has two detergent
cups. The smaller one is for addition to the
pre-wash and the larger is for release to the
main wash.
Use only fresh automatic dishwashing
detergent. Other detergents may cause
oversudsing.
When using automatic dishwashing
detergent tablets or packets, use only
one tablet or packet, place in the main
wash cup and close.
Add detergent just before starting cycle.
Store detergent in a cool, dry location
and discard any that becomes moist or
caked.
If the cover is closed on the Main Wash Cup
open by pressing the Cover Latch.

As a rule, use 1 teaspoon for each grain above 12. For very hard water, detergent alone
may not be enough and then a water softener is recommended to improve water quality and
dishwashing performance. However, when - using automatic dishwashing detergent tablets or
packets simply place one in the main wash cup.

How much Detergent to use

The amount of detergent to use depends
on the water hardness. Water hardness is
measured in grains per gallon. Using too little
detergent can result in poor cleaning and hard
water filming or spotting. Using too much
detergent in soft water can cause etching
to some glassware which is surface damage
that appears like a film but cannot be wiped
off. Your local water company, water softener
company or county extension agent can tell
you the water hardness in your area.
CAUTION
The use of industrial grade detergent can
damage the heating coil and other parts of
the dishwasher leading to damage to the
unit and surrounding property. Use only
household grade automatic dishwasher
detergents.
