Using the dishwasher.
Check the Water Temperature
Use Jet-Dry ® or Cascade Crystal Clear ® Rinse Agent
Jet-Dry ® or Cascade Crystal Clear ® rinse agents remove spots and prevent new film buildup on
your dishes, glasses, flatware, cookware and plastic.
Filling the Dispenser
The rinse agent dispenser holds 100 ml (3.5 fl. oz.) of rinse agent. Under
normal conditions, this will last approximately one month. Try to keep it
full, but do not overfill.
Make sure the dishwasher door is fully open.
Turn the dispenser cap to the left and lift it out.
Add rinse agent until the indicator window looks full.
Clean up any spilled rinse agent with a damp cloth.
Replace the dispenser cap.
Rinse Aid Setting
The amount of rinse agent released into the final wash can be adjusted.
The factory setting is at the midpoint. If there are rings of calcium (hard
water) spots on dishes, try a higher setting. If you see foam in the
dishwasher, move the indicator to a lower setting.
To adjust the setting
Remove the dispenser cap; then turn the adjuster counterclockwise to
increase the amount of rinse agent, clockwise to reduce the amount of rinse agent.

The entering water should be at least 120°F
and not more than 150°F, for effective cleaning
and to prevent dish damage. Check the water
temperature with a candy or meat thermometer. Turn on the hot water faucet nearest the
dishwasher, place the thermometer in a glass
and let the water run continuously into the
glass until the temperature stops rising.
