How much detergent to use

The amount of detergent to use depends on the soil level of 
your dishes, hardness of your water, and the type of 
detergent. If you use too little, dishes will not be clean. If you 
use too much in soft water, glassware will etch.

Water hardness can change over a period of time. Find out 
your water’s hardness by asking your Sears Sales Associate, 
local water department, water softener company, or county 
extension agent.

NOTE: Fill amounts shown are for standard powdered detergent. Amounts may vary if you use liquid or concentrated powdered 
detergent. Tablet detergents should be placed in the main wash section of the detergent dispenser with the cover closed. Follow 
instructions on the package when using liquid dishwasher detergent, concentrated powdered detergent or tablet detergent.

Rinse Aid Dispenser

IMPORTANT: Your dishwasher is designed to use a liquid rinse aid. The use of rinse aids greatly improves drying by allowing water to 
drain from the dishes after the final rinse. They also keep water from forming droplets that can dry as spots or streaks. Do not use a 
solid or bar-type rinse aid.

Filling the dispenser

The rinse aid dispenser holds 5 oz (150 mL) of rinse aid. Under 
normal conditions, this will last for about 1 to 3 months. 

1. Make sure the dishwasher door is fully open.

2. Turn the dispenser knob to “Open” and lift it out.

3. Pour rinse aid into the opening until the indicator points to 

“Full.” Take care not to overfill. (When the rinse aid indicator 
drops to the “Add” level, add more rinse aid.)

4. Clean up any spilled rinse aid with a damp cloth.

5. Place the knob back into the opening and turn to the “Lock” 

position. 

Rinse aid setting

The amount of rinse aid released into the final rinse can be 
adjusted. For most water conditions, the factory setting of 2 will 
give good results. If you have hard water or notice rings or 
calcium spots on your glasses or dishes, try a higher setting.

To adjust the setting

1. Remove the dispenser knob. 

2. Turn the arrow adjuster inside the dispenser to the desired 

setting by either using your fingers or inserting a flat-blade 
screwdriver into the center of the arrow and turning.

3. Replace the dispenser knob.
