Sensor System

To get dishes clean and dry you

need hot water. To help you get

water of the proper temperature,

your dishwasher has a water heating

feature that automatically senses

the temperature of the water in the

wash cycle and heats it, if necessary,

to the proper temperature. This

water heating feature may allow

you to turn down your household

water heater and save energy if

you’re willing to let the dishwasher

run a little longer while it heats

water to the proper temperature.

For good washing and drying, the

entering water must beat least

120°F.

To prevent dish damage,

inlet water

should

not exceed

150°F.

How to test water temperature:

Check your water temperature

inside your dishwasher with a

candy or meat thermometer.

Let the dishwasher run through

one fill and pump out cycle, then

let the dishwasher fill with water

the second time.

When you hear the water stop

filling, unlatch the door and slowly

open it.

Measure the temperature of the

water in the bottom of the tub this

way:

Remove the silverware basket and

place a candy or meat thermometer

in the water towards the middle of

the tub. If the temperature is less

than

120°F,

you will not get good

washing results. Higher water

temperature is needed to dissolve

grease and activate powder

detergents.

Helpful

hinb:

If outside

temperatures are unusually low, or

if your water travels a long distance

from water heater to dishwasher,

you may need to set your water

heater’s thermostat up. If you have

not used hot water for some time,

the water in the pipes

will

be cold.

Turn on the hot water faucet at the

sink and

allow

it to run

until

the

water is hot. Then start the

dishwasher. If you’ve recently done

laundry or run hot water for

showers, give your water heater

time to recover before operating the

dishwasher.

To improve washability if the water

is less than

120°F

and you cannot

adjust your water heater: Select a

longer cycle and fill both detergent

cups at least half-full with detergent.

How to use a rinse

Went.

A rinse agent makes water flow

off dishes quicker than usual. This

lessens water spotting and makes

drying faster, too.

For best

dishwashing

performance,

use of a rinse agent such as JET-

DRY brand is recommended.

Rinse agents come in either liquid

or solid form. Your dishwasher’s

dispenser uses the liquid form.

How to fill the rinse agent

dispenser.

Unscrew the cap. Add

the liquid rinse agent until it just

reaches the bottom of the lip inside

the dispenser opening. Replace the

cap. The dispenser automatically

releases the rinse agent into the

final rinse water.

If you

accidenblly

spill:

Wipe

up the rinse agent with a damp

cloth.

Don’t leave the spill in the

dishwasher. It can keep your

detergent from working.

If you can’t find any rinse agent,

write:

BENCKISER CONSUMER

PRODU~S,

INC.

(“JET DRY”)

411 W. Putnam Ave.

Greenwich,

06830

Your dishwasher’s rinse agent

container holds

4’/z

ounces. This

should

last

about 3 months. Fill

as needed. Do not overfill.

How to choose and use

dete~ent.

Rrst,

use

only

powder or liquid

dete~ents

specifically made for

use in dishwashers. Other types

will cause

oversudsing.

Second, check the phosphate

content.

Phosphate helps prevent

hard-water materials from forming

spots or film on your dishes. If

your water is hard (7 grains or

more), your detergent has to work

harder. Detergents with a higher

phosphate level will probably work

better. If the phosphate content is

low (8.7% or less), you’ll have to

use extra detergent with hard water.

Your water department can tell

you how hard your water is. So

can your county extension agent.

Or your area’s water softener

company. Just call and ask them

how many “grains of hardness”

there are in your water.

How much detergent should you

use?

That depends. Is your water

“hard” or “soft”? With hard water,

you need extra detergent to get

dishes clean. With soft water, you

need less detergent.

Too much detergent with soft water

not only wastes money, it can be

harmful. It can cause a permanent

cloudiness of glassware, called

“etching.” An outside layer of glass

is etched away! Of course, this

takes some time. But why take a

chance when it’s easy to find out

the hardness of your water.
