Amoun t o f Detergent to Us e
IF THE WATE R ISN'T TOO HA RD, Y OU M AY A LSO PREV ENT THE FORM ATION OF DEPOSITS BY ADDING DETERGENT.
The amount o f de tergent needed can vary due to differe nce s in water hardness. To determine t he water hardness in your ar ea ,
contact your l oca l water uti lity or area w ater softeni ng company. The harder the water , the mo re deter gent you may nee d.
Remember, you should adjust the amount of detergent you use by small amounts until you find the correct amount.
Proper Use of Detergent
Removing Hard Water Spots
To remove hard water spots, try the following:
Run d i shes thr ough a norma l w ash pr ogr am.
Remov e al l me tal di shw are , s uch as cutle ry , pans , e tc. ,

citric acid crystals inste ad of vinegar.
Use only detergent specifically made for use in dishwashers.
Keep your detergent fresh and dry. Don't put powder detergent
into the dispenser until You're ready to wash dishes.
RINSE AID DISPENSER
The rinse aid is released during the final rinse to prevent water
from forming droplets on your dishes that can leave spots and
streaks. It also improves drying by allowing water to "sheet" off
the dis hes .
Your dishwas hers are designed to use liquid rinse aids. The
rinse aid dispenser is located inside the door next to the
detergent dispenser. To fill the dispenser, open the cap and
pour the rinse aid into the dispenser until the level indicator
turns completely black. The dispenser holds about 100 ml of
liquid rinse aid.
Be careful not to overfill the dispenser, because this could
cause ov er sudsi ng. Wi pe away any spills wi th a da mp cloth.
Don't forget to replace the cap before you close the dishwasher
door.

How to Drain Excess Water
From Unicouple Hoses
If the sink is 34 or higher from the floor, the excesswater in Unicouple hoses
cannot be drained directly into the sink. It will be necessary to drain excess
water from hoses into a bowl or su itable container that is heldoutside and lower
than the sink.
Cold Water Connection
Connect the col d water supply hose to a thr ea ded 3/4(inc h) connector and make sure that it is
fastened tightly in place.
If the water pipes are ne w or hav e not bee n us ed for an extende d pe riod of time, let the water
run to make sure that the water is clear and free of impurities. If thi s precaution is not taken,
there is a risk tha t the water inl et can get blocked and damage the appliance.
Hot Water Connection
The water sup ply to the applia nce can also be connected to the house hot water line
(centralized system, heating system),as long as it doe s not exc ee d a temperature of 60 C.
In this cas e, t he wash cycle ti me will be shortene d by about 15 minutes and the wash
efficiency sli g htly reduced.
The connectio n must be made to the hot water line following the same procedures as those
for the connection to the cold water line.
