CARE AND CLEANING
Detergent Usage Chart
Dosage of detergent
Place a single detergent tablet or packet into the detergent dispenser compartment.
NOTE
For very hard water, detergent alone may not be enough. A water softener is
recommended to improve water quality and dishwashing performance. Try adding
more detergent at the beginning of the main wash portion of the cycle. As a rule,
use 1 teaspoon for each grain above 12. Unlatch the door, open slowly and add
detergent to the bottom of the tub. Close the door to latch and the dishwasher will
continue through the cycle.
