IMPORTANT
Before starting a cycle, run hot water to
clear cool water from pipe.
Rinse Aid
Rinse aid greatly improves drying, reduc-
es water spots, filming. With it water
“sheets” o dishes rather than forming
water droplets that cling and leave spots.
A dispenser, located next to the detergent
cup, automatically releases a measured
amount of rinse aid during the last rinse.
If spotting and poor drying are problems,
increase the amount of rinse aid dis-
pensed. The indicator will be dark when
full and will show clear when it is time to
refill.
Do not overfill since this can cause over-
sudsing. Wipe up any spills with a damp
cloth.
The dispenser holds enough for 11 to 66
washes, depending on setting.
To add liquid rinse aid, open the cover.
Pour in rinse aid until liquid touches the
indicated fill level. Close the cover.
Water Pressure
The hot water line to dishwasher must
provide water pressure between 20 and
120 psi.
Low water pressure may occur when
laundry or showers are in operation. If
you experience poor wash performance
you may need to wait until water use is
reduced before starting the dishwasher.
The HEAT DRY option in combination
with rinse aid will enhance drying
performance. The energy required to use
the HEAT DRY option costs pennies per
cycle. You may choose not to select the
HEAT DRY option; however you will have
items in your dish load that will not be
completely dry at the end of the cycle.
