Add Rinse Aid
■
Your dishwasher is designed to use rinse aid for good drying
performance. Without rinse aid, your dishes and dishwasher interior
will have excessive moisture. The heating and drying options will
not perform as well without rinse aid.
■
Rinse aid keeps water from forming droplets that can dry as spots
or streaks. It also improves drying by allowing water to drain off of
dishes after final rinse.
■
To add rinse aid, open the dispenser lid by gently pushing in the
center of the lid with your thumb while lifting up on the edge.
■
Pour rinse aid into the opening until the indicator level shows that it
is full.
■
Close dispenser by pushing down gently on the lid.
NOTE:
For most water conditions, the factory setting
will give good results.
If you are experiencing poor drying performance,
you may want to try a higher setting. Turn the arrow
adjuster to a higher setting to increase the amount
of rinse aid.
5.
Select a Cycle
Efficient dishwashers run longer to save water and energy, just as
driving a car slower saves on gas. Typical cycle time is approximately
2
¹⁄₂
hours but can take less or more time to complete depending on
selections.
6.
Select Options
You can customize your cycles by pressing the options desired. If you
change your mind, press the option again to turn off the option. Not all
options are available for every cycle. If an invalid option is selected for a
given cycle, the lights will flash.
7.
Start or Resume a Cycle
NOTE:
Run hot water at sink nearest your dishwasher until water is hot.
Turn off water.
■
If Start/Resume button is located on top of door, push door firmly
closed within 3 seconds of pressing START/RESUME. If door is not
closed within 3 seconds, the Start button LED will flash, an audible
tone will be heard, and cycle will not start.
IMPORTANT:
If anyone opens the door (such as, for adding a dish,
even during the Delay Hours option), the Start/Resume button must be
pressed each time.
■
If the Start/Resume button is located on front of door, push door
firmly closed. The door latches automatically. Select wash cycle and
options and then press START/RESUME or press START/RESUME
to repeat the same cycle and options as in previous wash cycle.
This information covers several different models. Your dishwasher may not have all of the cycles and options described.
