Using the rinse agent dispenser
Keep the rinse agent dispenser filled with a
liquid rinse agent. A rinse agent greatly
improves dish drying by helping water
flow off during the last rinse. A rinse
agent also keeps water from forming
droplets and drying as spots or streaks.
A small amount of rinse agent automatically
releases into the rinse water during the final
rinse of each cycle. For best drying
results, check dispenser periodically to
see if it needs filling.
To check dispenser:
•
Check center of Fill Indicator Cap. Clear
means it needs filling.
OR
•
Remove Fill Indicator Cap. An “E” is visible
when dispenser is empty.
To fill dispenser:
The rinse agent dispenser holds 6 ounces
(175 mL). Under normal conditions, this
lasts about 3 months.
1. Open dishwasher door completely.
2. Remove Fill Indicator Cap.
3. Add rinse agent. Fill to smallest opening
in lower part of dispenser only. Overfilling
may cause rinse agent to leak out. This
will not harm the dishwasher, but could
cause oversudsing.
4. Clean up any spilled rinse agent with
a damp cloth.
5. Replace Fill Indicator Cap. Keep it
closed tightly.
NOTE: You do not have to wait until the
dispenser is empty before refilling, but do
not overfill it. Your dishwasher is designed
to use a liquid rinse agent. You do not need
to use a solid or bar-type rinse agent.
