You’ll find two detergent
dispensers on the inside door 
your dishwasher. 
There are two
because some cycles use two
washes.

See “Detergent Usage Guide” 
(Be sure 

 Cycle Indicator Dial is

at OFF position before adding
detergent. Otherwise, the detergent
cup will not close and latch properly.)

Close the main cup.

NOTE: Detergent cup may be
opened manually with no harm.

Turn handle counterclockwise
until it releases. A snapping sound
is normal when it opens.

How to prepare the dishes
for washing

If this is your first dishwasher, or
if you’re replacing a much older
model, you may wonder how much
preparation your dishes need.
Actually very little. Pre-rinsing of

 food soils is not necessary.

With common sense and a little
practice 

 soon know what

foods to remove. Here are some
guidelines:

1. Scrape off bones, seeds, skins,

toothpicks and other hard solids. It
is also best to remove hard shelled
vegetables, meat trimmings, leafy
vegetables and crusts. Remove
excessive quantities of oil or grease.

2. Remove 

 quantities of any

food. Your dishwasher has a built-in
soft food disposer that pulverizes
soft food bits and flushes them
away. It can handle small amounts
of soft foods, but large amounts will
be difficult to handle.

Detergent Usage Guide 

(powder or liquid)

3. Try to remove food scraps and
place dishes in dishwasher before
soil has a chance to dry and become
hard. Dishes with dried-on soil are
more difficult to wash 

 may not

come clean in the NORMAL
WASH cycle. Remember to use
your RINSE & HOLD cycle for

small “holding” loads.

Note: The foods mentioned above
are examples only. Other foods not
mentioned may also need to be
removed from your dishes. You 

 want to consider removing

r

foods such as mustard, mayonnaise,

 lemon juice and other foods

that can cause discoloration of
stainless steel if allowed to remain
on dishes for a long period of time.

When using the POTS & PANS
cycle, less 
preparation is required
before loading. The 

 & PANS

cycle can wash heavily soiled
dishes and 

remove dried-on and

baked-on soils from pots, pans 

casseroles. Items with burned-on
soils may not come clean, and the
dishwasher cannot remove burn
marks or restore fading caused by
overheating during cooking.
