Your Part in Cleaning Dishes

Using the detergent dispenser

• Use automatic dishwashing detergent only. Other

detergents are too mild and much too sudsy.

• Add detergent just before starting cycle.

• Store tightly closed detergent in a cool, dry place.

Fresh automatic dishwasher detergent results in

better cleaning.

Filling the detergent dispenser

The detergent dispenser Q has one section with a cover

and one without. Push the cover down firmly until it latch

es. Detergent in the open section falls into the dishwasher

when closing the door. The covered section opens auto

matically for the main wash. It is normal for the cover to

open partially when dispensing detergent.

NOTE: Use both sections for cycles with two washes.

Use only the covered section for cycles with one wash.

See the cycles chart for more details.

dishes won’t be clean. If you use too much in soft water, glassware will etch.

department.
