		LOADING RACKS for the DISHWASHER 
Put silverware vertically in the pockets of the small silverware rack.
Put this rack on top of a simple (full size) rack.  The racks with
pegs are for dishes.  Cups and mugs will fit although the spot where
the peg hits might not get clean.  Some bowls will fit in the racks
made for plates but medium size bowls will take up the space for 2
plates.  Both surfaces of dishes must be exposed so don't try putting
on a second layer (of say bowls) over a first layer (of say cups).
All bowls and cups must be placed upside-down to keep water from
collecting in them.

			GREEN RINSE LIQUID
If the green rinse liquid in the bottle on top of the dishwasher isn't
very green anymore (compare to a new bottle), it's time to replace it.
The green liquid is used up by injecting clear (fresh) water into the
bottle as the dishwasher operates so that the level of liquid in the
bottle never changes (only the color does).  To remove the old bottle,
hold it up, push up on the white plastic ring (by the top of the
bottle), and gently pull the bottle down.  To put in a new bottle,
remove the cap, insert the hose, and push both the bottle and the
white plastic ring up as far as they will go.  While pushing the
bottle up, pull the white plastic ring down until it firmly rests on
the top part of the bottle.  Then test to see if the bottle will
easily pull down a little ways.  If it does you have not done the
above correctly.   Repeat, but this time push and pull a little
harder.

			DETERGENT
You are supposed to use only commercial dishwasher detergent available
from some restaurant supply stores or wholesale grocers.  It's much
stronger than the dishwasher detergent sold in markets for home use.
The later should not be used (but it is better than using no detergent
at all).  Beware, most "wholesale" grocers sell mainly to the public
and don't carry any commercial detergent.
