Run a Rinse Only cycle at least once
every two to three days
or twice a day until a full load is
accumulated.
Chipping of Dishes Improper loading
Load dishes and glasses so that they
are stable and do not strike together
from washing action. Moving racks in
and out smoothly will also minimize
chipping.
NOTE:
Some types of china and glass-
ware are too delicate for automatic
dishwashing and should be hand-
washed; for example: antiques,
feather-edged crystal and similar types.
Removing spots and film
Keep the rinse agent dispenser filled with a
liquid rinse agent. A rinse
agent prevents water from
forming droplets and drying as
spots or streaks.
To remove spots and film
on dishes and glasses, or hard water film/
lime buildup on the interior of the dish-
washer, you may use white vinegar with the
following procedure:
1.
Load clean dishes and glasses in dish-
washer (see pages 13-15). Do not load
silverware or other metals in the
dishwasher.
2. Put two cups of household vinegar (in a
glass or dishwasher safe measuring cup)
standing upright in the bottom rack.
3. Close and latch the door.
4. Select the Normal Wash cycle and
No Heat Dry option. Do not use detergent.
Allow the dishwasher to complete the
entire cycle.
NOTE:
This cleaning procedure is intended
for occasional use only. Vinegar is an acid.
Excessive use may damage your dishwasher.
