ProperUseof Detergent
Use only detergent specifically made fro" use
in dishwashers, Cascade ®,Cascade Complete '_
and Electrasol ®Amomatic Dishwashing
Detergents have been approved for use in
all GE dishwashers. Keep yore" detergent
ti'esh and dry. Don't put powder detergent into
the dispenser until you're ready to wash dishes.
The alnount of detergent to use depends on
whether your water is hard or soft. With hard
water, you need extra detergent. With soft
water; you need less detergent.

how hard wmr water is. Twelve or more grains
is extremely hard water. A water softener is
recommended. _4]thout it, lime can build up
in the water valve, which could stick while

with soft water can cause a permanent
cloudiness of glassware, called otching.

to fill with suds. During operation, these suds will
spill out of tile dishwasher vents, coveting tile
kitchen floor and making tile floor wet.
Because so many detergent containers look alike,
