Using Rinse Agent Dispenser
Rinse agent dispenser
Keep the rinse agent dispenser filled with a liquid
rinse agent such as Jet-Dry.” A rinse agent
greatly improves the drying of dishes by
helping water flow off of them during the
last rinse. A rinse agent also keeps water from
forming droplets and drying as spots. A small
amount of rinse agent is automatically released
into the rinse water during the final rinse of each
cycle.
For best drying results, check the
dispenser periodically to see if it needs
refilling.
To check dispenser
The center of the Fill Indicator Cap will be clear
when dispenser needs refilling. An “E" will also
be visible inside the dispenser when the cap is
removed and the dispenser is empty.
On some models:
1. Press the flexible clear top of the Fill Indicator
Cap to draw rinse agent into cap.
NOTE: You may need to press cap two or
three times to remove all of the air bubbles
from the cap.
2. When rinse agent does not show in cap, even
after pressing flexible cap several times,
dispenser needs refilling.
To fill dispenser
The dispenser will hold 6 ounces of rinse agent.
Under normal conditions, this will last about 3
months. You do not have to wait until the dispenser
is empty to refill it, but do not overfill it.
Make sure the dishwasher door is fully open
before removing the Fill Indicator Cap. Do not fill
past the smallest opening in the lower part of the
dispenser. If you overfill, excess rinse agent can
come out. This will not harm the dishwasher, but
could cause over-sudsing. Clean up any spilled
rinse agent with a damp cloth. Replace the Fill
Indicator Cap and keep it tightly closed.
NOTE: Because your dishwasher is designed to
use a liquid rinse agent, you do not need to use a
solid or bar-type rinse agent.
