Good
Dishwashing
Starts with HOT Water
To get dishes
clean
and dry, you need hot water. For good washin
g
and
drying,
the entering water must be
at
least
120°F.
To prevent dish damage, inlet water should not exceed
150°F.
How to Test Water Temperature
Check
your water temperatur
e
with
a
candy
or
meat
thermometer. Turn on the hot water
faucet
nearest
the
dishwasher. Put the thermometer in
a
glass and
let
the water run continuously into the glass until the
temperature stops rising. If the water temperatur
e
is
below
120°F.,
adjust your water heater.
Helpful hints:
lf
outside temperatures are
unusua]]y
low,
or if your water travels a long distance from water
heater to dishwasher, you may need to set your water
heater’s thermostat up.
Ifyou
have not used hot
wa(er
for some time,
the
water in the pipes
will
be
cold.
Turn
on the
hot
water faucet at the sink and allow it to run
until the water is hot. Then start the dishwasher, If
you’
ve
recently done laundry or run hot water for
showers, give your water heater time to recover before
operating the dishwasher.
To
improve washability if the water is less than
120°F.
and you cannot adjust your water heater: Select a
longer cycle
and
fill both detergent cups at least
hali-
full with detergent.
How to Use a Rinse Agent
The rinse agent makes water
flow
off dishes
quicker than usual. This lessens water spottin
g
and makes drying faster, too.
For best
dishwashing
performance, use of a rinse
agent
such as
JET-DRY
brand is recommended.
Rinse agents come in either
liquid
or solid form.
Your dishwasher uses the liquid form.
How to fill the rinse agent dispenser.
Unscrew the cap. Note the FULL
!-
,1,111,1,
s,
line
on
the top of the cap. Add
liquid rinse agent until it just
reaches the top of the FULL line.

ounces. This should last about
3 months. Fill as needed.
If you accidentall
y
spill: Wipe up the rinse
agent with a damp
