Use only detergent specifically made for use in
dishwashers. Cascade
® , Cascade Complete ® and
Electrasol ® Automatic Dishwashing Detergents have
been approved for use in all Monogram Dishwashers.
Keep your powdered detergent fresh and dry. Don’t put
detergent into the dispenser until you’re ready to wash
dishes.
All wash cycles except RINSE ONLY require detergent.
The amount of detergent to use depends on whether
your water is hard or soft.
Protect your dishes and dishwasher by contacting your
water department and asking how hard your water is.
Twelve or more grains is extremely hard water. A water
softener is recommended. Without it, lime can build
up in the water valve, which could stick while open and
cause flooding. Too much detergent with soft water
can cause a permanent cloudiness of glassware,
called etching.
The detergent cup has indicator lines to help you.
Use the right amount of detergent. As a guide:
For Soft water (water hardness <4 Grains Per Gallon,
GPG), fill cup to the first line.
For Medium water (4–8 GPG), fill cup to the second
line.
For Medium hard water (8–12 GPG), fill cup.
For Extremely hard water (>12 GPG), fill both cups.
To fill the dispenser, if the dispenser is closed,
open the cover by depressing the cover latch.
Add detergent to the Main Wash section, as per
guidelines. Fill the Pre-wash section if water is
extremely hard. Then close the dispenser cover.
It is normal for the cover to open partially when
dispensing detergent.
Do not use hand dish detergent.
NOTE: Using a detergent
that is not specifically designed
for dishwashers will cause the
dishwasher to fill with suds.
During operation, these suds
will spill out of the dishwasher
vents, covering the kitchen floor and making the
floor wet.
Because so many detergent containers look alike,
store the dishwasher detergent in a separate space
from all other cleaners. Show anyone who may use the
dishwasher the correct detergent and where it is stored.
While there will be no lasting damage to the dishwasher,
your dishes will not get clean using a dishwashing
detergent that is not formulated to work with
dishwashers.
Drying Fan
(on some models)
Top Control Panel
models are equipped
with a drying fan to
assist in drying dishes
by pulling air through
the tub after the wash
cycle.
If the Heated Dry option is selected, then the drying
fan will run during the drying portion of the cycle and
up to 2 hours after the CLEAN light is on, depending
on the selected wash cycle. If the Heated Dry option is
not used, then the CLEAN light will come on at the end
of the final rinse and the fan will run up to 4 hours,
depending on the selected wash cycle.
If the Rinse Only wash cycle is selected, the Heated Dry
option is automatically turned off and the drying fan
will run for 4 hours.
If the drying fan is running and the CLEAN light is on,
the drying fan can be turned off by opening the door
and pressing any key on the keypad.
