SmartBoostTM Clean
•
When using automatic dishwashing
detergent tabs, place one tab in main
wash cup and close.
This dishwasher includes the
SmartBoostTM Clean system. SmartBoostTM
Clean features a separate spray arm
that directly sprays the detergent
compartment which aids in dissolving
detergent faster. This reduces detergent
residue left on the dishes and in the dish
compartment.
•
•
Add detergent just before starting
cycle.
Store detergent in a cool, dry
location. Moist or caked detergent
may not dissolve properly.

The detergent dispenser has one covered

open the main wash detergent cup.
CAUTION
2. Add the recommended amount of
detergent to the main wash cup.

household grade automatic dishwasher
detergent.
3. Slide the main wash cover back over
the main wash cup to close.

How much detergent to use
The amount of detergent to use depends
on the water hardness. Water hardness is
measured in grains per gallon. Using too
little detergent can result in poor cleaning
and hard water filming or spotting. Using
too much detergent in soft water can
cause etching to some glassware which
is surface damage that appears like a film
but cannot be wiped off. Your local water
company, water softener company or
county extension agent can tell you the
water hardness in your area.
