•
HOT WATER –
Your dishwasher
needs hot water for best results.
Water entering the dishwasher
should be at least 120°F
. but your
dishwasher performs
BETTER
with
HIGHER
water temperatures not to
exceed 150°F.
•
WATER HARDNESS –
The
hardness of the water plays an
important part in how well your
dishwasher cleans. In areas where
water is very hard (12 grains or
more), it may be necessary to install
a water softener. If you do not know
the hardness of your water supply,
contact your local water department.
• DETERGENTS –
Only use
detergents labeled for use in
automatic dishwashers.
Never use laundry detergents or
liquid soaps…that will cause
oversudsing and leaks. The amount
of detergent you use depends on the
water hardness and the amount of
soil on your dishes. In most cases,
detergent amounts should be
increased for hard water and heavy
soil.
•
Jet Dry
®
Rinse Agent
should always
be used:
– to reduce water spotting
– to improve drying.
Refill the Rinse Agent once per
month.
•
FOR BEST RESULTS –
The cycles
and the options you choose have an
effect on the results you get. Please,
see the Operating Instructions and
Tips for more information.
