Rinse Aid
To achieve proper drying, always use a liquid rinse aid, even if your detergent
contains a rinse aid or drying additive.
Note: The dishwasher indicates low rinse aid by turning on the Refill Rinse Aid LED
in the display. If this light is on, you need to refill the rinse aid dispenser by follow-
ing the directions below.
Adding Rinse Aid
Add liquid rinse aid to the dispenser until the reservoir is full (see
Figure 5
).
Wipe up any excess rinse aid that may puddle when the dispenser reservoir is
full. The indicator light will go out a few moments after the dishwasher door is
shut.
See
page 12
for how to adjust the amount of rinse aid dispensed.
Dishware Materials
Note: Before using your dishwasher for the first time, check the information in this section. Some items are
not dishwasher safe and should be hand washed; others require special loading.
Recommended
Aluminum:
Colored anodized aluminum may fade over time. Minerals in your water may cause the alu-
minum to darken or spot. This can usually be removed with a soap-filled steel wool pad.
China, Crystal, Stoneware:
Some hand-painted utensils may discolor, fade or spot. Hand wash these
utensils. Position fragile glassware so that it will not fall over or come in contact with other utensils
during the wash cycle.
Glass:
Milk glasses may discolor or become yellow.
Non-stick Coatings:
Apply a light coating of vegetable oil to non-stick surfaces after drying.
Plastics:
Make sure the plasticware is dishwasher safe.
Stainless Steel, Sterling Silver and Silver Plates:
Load these so they do not come in contact with
other metals.
Not Recommended
Acrylic:
Crazing, small cracks throughout the acrylic, may occur.
Adhesive-Joined Pieces:
Adhesives that join materials such as plastic, wood, bone, steel, copper, tin,
etc. may loosen.
Bone-Handled Utensils:
Handles may separate.
Iron:
Iron will rust. Hand wash and dry immediately.
Non-Dishware Items:
Your dishwasher is intended for use in cleaning ONLY standard household dish-
ware and kitchenware.
Pewter, Brass, Bronze:
These items will tarnish. Hand wash and dry immediately.
Tin:
Tin will stain. Hand wash and dry immediately.
Wood:
Wooden bowls, wooden utensils and utensils with wooden handles can crack, warp and lose
their finish.
Loading the Dishwasher
Do not pre-wash items with loosely attached soiling. Remove all food particles, bones, toothpicks and
excessive grease. Items having burned-on, baked-on or starchy soils may require some pretreatment.
Refer to the Dishware Materials section for more information about dishware suitability.
Load only dishwasher safe items into the dishwasher. Load dishes in the dishwasher racks so the
insides of bowls, pots and pans are facing the spray arms. Avoid nesting and contact points between
dishes. Separate items of dissimilar metals.
