SOLUTION
Follow loading instructions.
Use the High Temp Wash option. Do not use
the Low Energy Rinse option. If needed, turn
home water heater up to ensure water entering
dishwasher is 120°F (49°C) minimum. See the
“To check water temperature” section.
NOTE:
In some cases, loads may not dry as well
when using the High Temp Wash option.
Use recommended dishwasher detergents
only. See the “Using the Dispensers” section.
Never use less than one tablespoon per load.
Detergent must be fresh to be effective.
Always store detergent tightly closed in a
cool, dry place.
Use fresh detergent only. Do not allow detergent
to sit for several hours in a wet dispenser. Check
dispenser for caked detergent. Clean dispenser
when caked detergent is present.
Home water pressure should be 20 to 120 pounds
per square inch (psi) (138 to 838 kPa) for proper
dishwasher fill. A booster pump on the water
supply may be necessary if pressure is too low.
Never use soap or laundry detergents. Use
recommended dishwasher detergents only.
Use rinse agent to help prevent spotting and
filming. To remove hard water film, see
“Removing spots and film” at the end of
this section.
Use the High Temp Wash option. Do not
use the Low Energy Rinse option. If needed, turn
home water heater up to ensure water entering
dishwasher is 120°F (49°C) minimum. See the
“To check water temperature” section.
NOTE:
In some cases, loads may not dry as well
when using the High Temp Wash option.
