Factors Affecting Performance - Kenmore 587.1522 Guide D'utilisation Et D'entretien

Factors Aff ecting Performance
Rinse Aid
Rinse aid greatly improves drying, reduces
water spots, fi lming, and lubricates wash
arm bearing for proper rotation. With
it water "sheets" off dishes rather than
forming water droplets that cling and
leave spots.
A dispenser, located next to the detergent
cup, automatically releases a measured
amount of rinse aid during the last
rinse. If spotting and poor drying are
problems, increase the amount of rinse aid
dispensed by rotating the dial to a higher
number. The dial is located under the
dispenser cap. The indicator will be dark
when full and will show clear when it is
time to refi ll.
To add liquid rinse aid, turn dispenser cap
1/4 turn counterclockwise and lift out.
Pour in rinse aid until liquid touches the
indicated fi ll level Replace cap.
Do not overfi ll since this can cause
oversudsing. Wipe up any spills with a
damp cloth.
The dispenser holds enough for 35 to 140
washes, depending on setting.

Water Pressure
The hot water line to dishwasher must
provide water pressure between 20 and
120 psi.
Low Water pressure may occur when
laundry or showers are in operation. If
you experience poor wash performance
you may need to wait until water use is
reduced before starting dishwasher.
Water Temperature
Hot water is needed for best dishwashing
and drying results. Water entering
dishwasher should be at least 120
to give satisfactory results.
To check water temperature entering
dishwasher:

* IMPORTANT
Before starting a cycle, run hot water to
clear cool water from pipe.

The HEAT DRY option in combination
with rinse aid will enhance drying
performance. The energy required to use
the HEAT DRY option costs pennies per
Adjustable
cycle. You may choose not to select the
Setting
HEAT DRY option; however you will have
items in your dish load that will not be
completely dry at the end of the cycle.

Turn on hot water faucet nearest
dishwasher for several minutes to
clear cool water from pipes.
Hold a candy or meat thermometer
in the water stream to check the
temperature.
If temperature is below 120
have a qualifi ed person raise the hot
