How much detergent to use The amount of detergent to use depends on the hardness of your water. If too liile is used, dishes won’t be clean. However, if too much is used in soft water, glassware will begin to etch.
On some models: 1. Press the flexible clear top of the Fill Indicator Cap to draw rinse agent into cap. NOTE: You may need to press cap two or three times to remove all of the air bubbles from the cap. 2. When rinse agent does not show in cap, even after pressing flexible cap several times, dispenser needs refilling.
Water temperature tips Hot water dissolves and activates the diihwashing detergent. Hot water also dissolves grease on dishes and helps dry glasses spot-free. Use the Hi-Temp option if you keep your water heater at a low setting. For best dishwashing results, water must be at least 120°F (49°C) as it enters the dishwasher.
Special tips on dishwasher use If you have any doubts about washing a particular piece of dishware, check with the manufac- turer to see if it is dishwasher safe. NOTE: It is the user’s responsibility to determine if dishware should be washed in a dishwasher.
