Second, check the phosphate

hard-water materials from forming

your water is hard (7 grains or

A rinse agent makes water flow off
dishes quicker than usual. This
lessens water spotting and makes
drying faster, too.
How to test water temperature:
Check the water temperature
inside your dishwasher with a
candy or meat thermometer.
Let the dishwasher run through
one fill and pump out cycle, then
let the dishwasher fill with water
the second time.
For best
performance, use of a rinse
agent such as JET-DRY brand is
recommended.
Your water department can tell
you how hard your water is. So
can your county extension agent.
Or your area’s water softener
company. Just call and ask them
how many “grains” of hardness is
in your water.
When you hear the water stop
filling, unlatch the door and slowly
open it.
Rinse agents come in either liquid
or solid form. Your dishwasher
uses the solid form.
Measure the temperature of the
water in the bottom of the tub this
way:
If you can’t find any rinse agent,
write:
How much detergent should you
use? That depends. Is your water
“hard” or “soft”? With hard water,
you need extra detergent to get
dishes clean. With soft water, you
need less detergent.

How to prepare the

You’ll find two detergent
If this is your first dishwasher, or
if you’re replacing a much older
model, you may wonder how much
pre-preparation your dishes need.
Actually very little. Pre-rinsing of
normal food soils is not necessary.
With common sense and a little
practice you’ll soon know what
foods to remove. Here are some
guidelines:
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 and may
not come clean in the NORMAL

Note: The foods mentioned above

not mentioned may also need to be
removed from your dishes. You
may also want to consider removing
foods such as mustard, mayonnaise,
vinegar, lemon juice and other foods
that can cause discoloration of
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.

cup will not close and
latch properly.)
2. Remove large quantities of any
food. Your dishwasher has a built-in
soft food disposer that pulverizes
food bits and flushes them away.
It can handle small amounts of
soft foods, but large amounts will
be difficult to handle.
When using the
