Factors affecting performance
Using rinse aid
Rinse aid greatly improves drying and reduces water spots and filming.
Without rinse aid, your dishes and dishwasher interior will have excessive
moisture. In addition, the heated dry option will not perform as well
without rinse aid. The rinse aid dispenser, located next to the detergent
cup, automatically releases a measured amount of rinse aid during the last
rinse.
If spotting and poor drying is a problem, increase the amount of rinse aid
dispensed by rotating the dial to a higher number. The dial is located
under the dispenser cap.
If the rinse aid is low, the rinse aid light turns on at the beginning and end
of the cycle indicating that it is time to refill. Refer to “Filling the rinse aid
dispenser” on page 20.
Water temperature
Hot water is required for optimum dishwashing and drying results. Water
entering the dishwasher should be at least 120° F (49° C) to achieve
satisfactory results.
To check water temperature entering dishwasher:
1 Turn on the hot water faucet near the dishwasher and let it run for
several minutes.
2 Hold a thermometer (a candy or meat thermometer will work) in the
water stream to check the temperature. If temperature is below 120° F
(49° C), have a qualified person raise the hot water heater thermostat
setting.
Heat dry function
The heat dry function, when used with a rinse aid, enhances drying
performance. If you do not choose the heat dry function, items in your
load that will not be completely dry at the end of the cycle.
Water pressure
For optimum performance, the hot water supply line for your dishwasher
must provide water pressure of at least 20 psi and not more than 120 psi.
You may experience low water pressure during high-demand periods,
such as when laundry or showers are in use while you are washing the
dishes. To eliminate this problem, wait until hot water demand is reduced
before starting the dishwasher.
Important
To make sure that the water entering the dishwasher is hot, run
hot water from the nearest hot water faucet to clear cool water
from the pipe before starting the cycle.
