LG Dishwasher - Adding detergent Show Script [Title] LG Dishwasher - Adding detergent [Narrator]
  • Adding detergent to the dispenser

  • The amount of detergent needed depends on the cycle, load size, and soil level of dishes.

  • Put detergent into the detergent compartment before starting any cycle, except the Rinse cycle.

  • Push the button on the dispenser lid to open the cover.

  • Add dishwashing detergent to the main wash compartment until the level is between the lines marked 15 and 25.

  • Push the detergent lid to slide the lid closed until it clicks.

  • If a prewash is desired, fill the recessed prewash compartment area in the lid with detergent.

  • Caution for detergent

  • To avoid damaging the dishwasher, do not pull up on the dispenser to close the dishwasher door.

  • Use only detergent intended for dishwashers.

  • Incorrect detergent may cause the dishwasher to fill with suds during operation.

  • Never use dish soap in the dishwasher.

  • Too much detergent can leave a film on dishes and in the dishwasher resulting in poor wash performance.

  • Some dishwasher detergent tablets may become struck in the dispenser due to their excessive size.

  • Tablets can be placed onto the base of the wash tub next to the filter before starting the cycle.

  • Detergent tablets are not recommended for use in the Express cycle.

  • If the detergent tablets are used, it may cause detergent residue on dishes due to the relatively low rinse temperatures.
