NOTE: If you do not plan to run a wash cycle soon, run a rinse 
cycle. Do not use detergent.

■

Use automatic dishwasher detergent only. Add tablet, powder 
or liquid detergent just before starting a cycle.

■

Fresh automatic 
dishwasher 
detergent results in 
better cleaning. 
Store tightly closed 
detergent container 
in a cool, dry place.

Many detergents now come in premeasured forms (gel packs, 
tablets, or powder packs). These forms are suitable for all hardness 
and soil levels. Always place premeasured detergents in the main 
compartment and close the lid. 

Using dishwasher detergent tablets and packs have been proven 
better than powder, liquid or gel detergents to reduce filming on 
your dishes. By using these tablets and packs, over time this will 
start to reduce or eliminate white film. Also, by using a rinse aid you 
can minimize repeat buildup of white film.

■

The amount of detergent to use depends on: 

How much soil remains on the items - Heavily soiled loads 
require more detergent.

The hardness of the water - If you use too little in hard water, 
dishes won't be clean. If you use too much in soft water, 
glassware will etch.

Soft to Medium Water (0-6 grains per U.S. gallon) 
[typical water softener water and some city water] 
Medium to Hard Water (7-12 grains per U.S. gallon)
[well water and some city water]

■

Depending on your water hardness, fill the Main Wash section 
of the dispenser as shown. Fill the Pre-Wash section to the 
level shown, if needed. 

NOTE: Fill amounts shown 
are for standard powdered 
detergent. Follow 
instructions on the package 
when using other dishwasher 
detergent types.  

■

Your dishwasher is designed to use rinse aid for good drying 
performance. Without rinse aid your dishes and dishwasher 
interior will have excessive moisture. The heat dry option will 
not perform as well without rinse aid.

■

Rinse aid keeps water from forming droplets that can 
dry as spots or streaks. They also improve drying by 
allowing water to drain off of the dishes after the final 
rinse.

■

Rinse aid helps to reduce excess moisture on the dish 
racks and interior of your dishwasher.

■

Check the rinse aid indicator. Add rinse aid when indicator 
drops to “Add” level.

■

To add rinse aid, turn the dispenser cap 
to “Refill” and lift off. Pour rinse aid into 
the opening until the indicator level is at 
“Full.” Replace the dispenser cap and 
turn to “Lock.” Make sure cap is fully 
locked. 

NOTE: For most water conditions, the 
factory setting of 2 will give good 
results. If you have hard water or notice 
rings or spots, try a higher setting. Turn 
the arrow adjuster inside the dispenser 
by either using your fingers or inserting 
a flat-blade screwdriver into the center 
of the arrow and turning. 

See “Cycle and Option Descriptions” charts in the following 
section.

Efficient dishwashers run longer to save water and energy, just like 
driving a car slower saves on gas. Typical cycle time is 
approximately 2 1/2 hours, but can take less or more time to 
complete depending on selections.

See “Cycle and Option Descriptions” charts in the following 
section.

You can customize your cycles by pressing the options desired. If 
you change your mind, press the option again to turn off the option. 
Not all options are available for every cycle. If an invalid option is 
selected for a given cycle, the lights will flash.

■

When loading silverware, always place sharp items pointing 
down. Mix items in each section of the basket with some 
pointing up and some down to avoid nesting. Spray cannot 
reach nested items.
