DISHWASHER USE Detergent Dispenser The detergent dispenser has 2 sections. The smaller Pre-Wash section empties detergent into the dishwasher when you close the door. I. 2. 3. 4. How much detergent to use • The amount of detergent to use depends on the hardness of your water and the type of detergent. If you use too tittle, dishes won't be clean. If you use too much in soft water, glassware will etch. • Water hardness can change over a period of time.
Rinse Aid Dispenser Dishwasher Efficiency Tips Rinse aids prevent water from forming droplets that can dry as spots or streaks. They also improve drying by allowing water to drain off of the dishes during the final rinse by releasing a small amount of the rinse aid into the rinse water. Your dishwasher is designed to use a liquid rinse aid. Do not use a solid or bar-type. Hot water dissolves and activates the dishwashing detergent.
