AMOUNT OF DETERGENT TO USE

The amount of detergent needed can vary due to

differences in water hardness. To determine the water

hardness in your area, contact your local water utility or

area water softening company. The harder the water,

the more detergent you may need. Refer to the chart

RECOMMENDED DETERGENT AMOUNTS

WATER HARDNESS

Soft

(0-3 grains per gallon)

Medium

(4-8 grains per gallon)

Hard

(9+ grains*)

NOTE

: We recommend that you do not add prewash detergent for the Quick or Light wash programs.

* 12 grains and higher is extremely hard water and

detergent alone may not be enough. You may need to

use a water softener to maximize the performance of

your dishwasher. Also, in areas with extremely hard

water (9+) you may need to wash at lower temperatures

to prevent hard water deposits from forming in tank and

wash system.

In hard water areas, both the dishes and the machine

can develop a white or gray film after a while. This can

To remove hard water spots, try the following:

1. Run dishes through a normal wash program.

2. Remove all metal dishware, such as cutlery, pans,

etc., from the dishwasher.

3. Do not add detergent.

RINSE AID DISPENSER

The rinse aid is released during the final rinse to prevent

water from forming droplets on your dishes that can

leave spots and streaks. It also improves drying by

allowing water to "sheet" off the dishes.

ASKO dishwashers are designed to use liquid rinse

aids. The rinse aid dispenser is located inside the door

next to the detergent dispenser. (See illustration on page

4.) To fill the dispenser, open the cap and pour the rinse

aid into the dispenser until the level indicator turns

completely black. The dispenser holds about four

ounces of liquid rinse aid.

Be careful not to overfill the dispenser, because this

could cause oversudsing. Wipe away any spills with a

damp cloth. Don't forget to replace the cap before you

close the dishwasher door.

If you have soft water, rinse aid may cause a white film to

develop on your dishes. You may not need rinse aid.

two tablespoons of citric acid. If the water is very hard,

use a rinse aid that contains citric acid.

Different brands of dishwasher detergent have different

amounts of phosphorous for softening water. If you have

hard water and use a detergent with less than 8.7%

phosphorous content, you may need to use more

detergent or use a detergent with more than 8.7%

phosphorous content.

4. Pour two cups of vinegar into a bowl and set the

bowl face up on the bottom rack of the dishwasher.

5. Run the dishes through a Normal wash program.

If this doesn't work, try the same process with 1/4 cup of

citric acid crystals (available at most drug stores) instead

of vinegar.

To open the dispenser, turn the cap to the "open"

(left) arrow and lift it out.

Pour the rinse aid into the dispenser, being careful

not to overfill.

Replace the cap by inserting it aligned with "open"

arrow and turning it to the closed (right) arrow.
