Using the dishwasher.
12
Check the Water Temperature
The entering water must be at least 120°F. and not more than
150°F., for effective cleaning and to prevent dish damage. Check
the water temperature with a candy or meat thermometer. Turn on
the hot water faucet nearest the dishwasher, place the thermometer
in a glass and let the water run continuously into the glass until the
temperature stops rising. Adjust your water heater, if needed.
Using a Rinse Agent
A rinse agent,such as
JET-DRY
, makes water flow off the dishes
quickly thereby reducing water spotting.
Fill the rinse agent dispenser
until it reaches the bottom of lip
inside the opening. Replace cap.
To check if rinse agent is needed,
remove the cap and look into the
dispenser. On some models, the
dispenser can be checked by
pressing the clear center of the
fill cap 2 or 3 times. If rinse agent
fills the center of the fill cap, you
have enough.
A full dispenser should last about 3 months.
If rinse agent spills, wipe it up immediately. It can keep your detergent
from working.
