Your dishwasher cleans by spraying a mixture of hot water and detergent through the spray arms against soiled surfaces. First, the dishwasher drains for a few seconds to remove soils dropped while loading, then fills with water covering the filter area. Water is then pumped through the spray arms. Soil particles go through and across the filter and down the drain as the water is pumped out. This series of steps are repeated as needed. The number of water fills varies with the cycle being used.

Filling the Detergent Dispenser How much Detergent to use The detergent dispenser has a main wash cup where you will add your detergent or detergent tab. 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.
Dosage of detergent Place a single detergent tablet or packet into the detergent dispenser compartment. Detergent Usage Chart Water Hardness Soft Water (0-3 grains) Medium Hard Water (4-8 grains) Amount (teaspoons) 4teaspoons 6teaspoons Dispensercup level: First Line Second Line Hard Water (9-12 grains) 8teaspoons Full For very hard water, detergent alone may not be enough. A water softener is recommended to improve water quality and dishwashing performance.
Rinse Aid How to adjust the rinse aid dosage Rinse aid greatly improves drying, reduces water spots, filming. With it water "sheets" off dishes rather than forming water droplets that cling and leave spots. Press and hold the RINSE ONLY and DELAY START 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 dispensed.
