Using the dishwasher.
Use Cascade Crystal Clear
®
Rinse Agent
Cascade Crystal Clear ® rinse agent removes spots and prevents new film buildup on your dishes, glasses,
flatware, cookware and plastic.
Filling the Dispenser
The rinse agent dispenser holds 3.5 oz. of rinse agent. Under normal conditions,
this will last approximately one month. Try to keep it full, but do not overfill.
1
Make sure the dishwasher door is fully open.
2
Turn the dispenser cap to the left and lift it out.
3
Add rinse agent until the indicator window looks full.
4
Clean up any spilled rinse agent with a damp cloth.
5
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 observe foam
in the final rinse, try a lower setting.
To adjust the setting
Remove the dispenser cap; then turn the adjuster counterclockwise
to increase the amount of rinse agent or clockwise to reduce the amount
of rinse agent dispensed.
Check the Water Temperature
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.
