IMPORTANT

Before starting a cycle, run hot water to clear 

cool water from pipe.

Rinse Aid

Rinse aid greatly improves drying, reduces 

water spots, filming. 

With it water “sheets” off 

dishes rather than forming water droplets that 

cling and leave spots.
A dispenser, located next to the detergent cup, 

automatically releases a measured amount of 

rinse aid during the last rinse.

 

If spotting and poor 

drying are problems, increase the amount of rinse 

aid dispensed.

 

The indicator will be dark when full 

and will show clear when it is time to refill.

To add liquid rinse aid:

1.  Lift up the rinse aid cover to open.
2.  Fill the rinse aid dispenser with liquid rinse aid 

until the liquid reaches the indicated fill level. 

DO NOT overfill.

3. 

Press the rinse aid cover down firmly to close.

4.  Wipe up any spills with a damp cloth.

FACTORS AFFECTING PERFORMANCE

Water Pressure 

The hot water line to dishwasher must provide 

water pressure between 20 and 120 psi.
Low water pressure may occur when laundry 

or showers are in operation.

 

If you experience 

poor wash performance you may need to wait 

until water use is reduced before starting the 

dishwasher.

How to adjust the rinse aid dosage

Press and hold the RINSE ONLY and DELAY START 

pad for 5 seconds until the status window shows 

rinse aid level.

 

Pressing the DELAY START pad 

increases the increment level (L0-L6).
Once the rinse-aid level reaches L6, the status 

window will start back at level L0.
Pressing the START button or just pausing for a 

few seconds confirms the rinse aid level setting: 

the status window shows the duration of the 

cycle.

 

Water Temperature

Hot water is needed for best dishwashing and 

drying results.

 

Water entering dishwasher should 

be at least 120°F (49°C) to give satisfactory 

results.
To check water temperature entering dishwasher:

•  Turn on hot water faucet nearest dishwasher 

for several minutes to clear cool water from 

pipes.

•  Hold a candy or meat thermometer in the 

water stream to check the temperature.

•  If temperature is below 120°F (49°C), have 

a qualified person raise the hot water heater 

thermostat setting.

Rinse Aid 

Cover

The dispenser holds enough for 11 to 66 washes, 

depending on setting.

NOTA

The HEAT DRY option in combination with 

rinse aid will enhance drying performance. The 

energy required to use the HEAT DRY option 

costs pennies per cycle. You may choose not to 

select the HEAT DRY option; however you will 

have items in your dish load that will not be 

completely dry at the end of the cycle.
