Detergent brands have varying amounts of phos
phates. Phosphate is a water softening ingredi
ent in detergents which can help prevent hard
w^ater minerals from, form.ing spots or film.s on
dishes, glasses, etc. You m.ay need to increase
detergent when the phosphate content is low
(8.7% or less) and the water is hard (10 grains
or more). Read the detergent package label di
rectly under the pouring spout, to find the phos
phate content.
* Extremely Hard (15 grains and up). Water softener is
recommended: detergent alone may not be enough. In
extreme conditions, lime may build up over time in the
water valve, causing it to stick open and possibly flood
if a water softener is not used.
IMPORTANT: Do not put detergent into the
dispenser until you’re ready to wash dishes.
Fresh, dry detergent is necessary for best wash
ing results. REMEMBER: Use only detergents
designed for automatic dishwashers.
