How much Detergent to use
The amount of detergent to use depends
on the water hardness. Water hardness is
measured in grains per gallon. Using too
little detergent can result in poor cleaning
and hard water filming or spotting. Using
too much detergent in soft water can
cause etching to some glassware which
is surface damage that appears like a film
but cannot be wiped o. Your local water
company, water softener company or
county extension agent can tell you the
water hardness in your area.
Filling the Detergent Dispenser
The detergent dispenser has two deter-
gent cups. The smaller one is for addi-
tion to the pre-wash and the larger is for
release to the main wash.
• Use only fresh automatic dishwashing
detergent. Other detergents may
cause oversudsing.
• When using automatic dishwashing
detergent tabs, place one tab in main
wash cup and close.
• Add detergent just before starting
cycle.
• Store detergent in a cool, dry
location. Moist or caked detergent
may not dissolve properly.
As a rule, use 1 teaspoon for each grain above 12. For very hard water, detergent alone
may not be enough and then a water softener is recommended to improve water
quality and dishwashing performance.
