Detergent
Use only detergent specically designed for dishwashers.
For best results, use fresh powdered dishwashing
detergent.
ATTENTION
To avoid dishwasher damage, do not use hand
dishwashing products in your dishwasher.
To avoid dishwasher damage, do not use too much
detergent if your water is soft. Using too much detergent
in soft water may cause etching in glassware.
The dishwasher uses less water so you need to use less
detergent. With soft water, 1 tbsp. (15ml) of detergent will
clean most loads. The detergent dispenser cup has lines
that measure detergent to:
14
1 tablespoon (15ml) AND•
1.75 tablespoons (25ml)•
3 tablespoons (45ml) of detergent will completely ll the
detergent dispenser cup.
NOTE: If you do not know the hardness of your water
supply, use 15ml of detergent. Increase the amount,
if necessary, to the least amount required to get your
kitchenware clean.
Use the measuring lines in the detergent dispenser
cup as a guide to measure the amount of detergent
recommended in the Tables below.
3 TBS MA X
2 TBS (2 5 ML)
1 TBS (1 5 ML)
Rinse Agent
To achieve proper drying, always use a liquid rinse agent,
even if your detergent contains a rinse agent or drying
additive.
NOTE: The dishwasher indicates low rinse agent by the
Rinse Agent Indicator Light.
Add liquid rinse agent to the dispenser until the rinse
agent reservoir is full. Wipe up any excess rinse agent that
puddles when the dispenser reservoir is full.
After lling the rinse agent dispenser, the indicator light
will go out in a few minutes after the dishwasher door is
shut.

NOTE: To save energy, this dishwasher has a “Smart Control”
that automatically adjusts the cycle based on soil loads and
incoming water temperature. The “Smart Control” makes
decisions that can cause the cycle time and water usage to
adjust intermittently. The cycle times listed in the Use and Care
manual are based on normal soil loads and 120°F incoming
water and will vary based on your actual conditions.
See the Cycles and Options Charts to determine the cycles
available for your specic model.
