  • Fill with rinse aid: Pour rinse aid into the cup until it reaches the fill line.
  • Close the cap: Securely close the rinse aid compartment to prevent leaks.
  • Refill as needed: Depending on your dishwasher and how often you run it, you might need to refill every few weeks.

    • Tips for Best Results

    • Use the rinse aid recommended by your dishwasher’s manufacturer.
    • Adjust the rinse aid dispenser setting if your dishwasher allows, based on your water hardness. More rinse aid is usually needed for hard water.
    • Regularly check the rinse aid level so you don’t run out mid-cycle.

    What If Your Dishwasher Has a Different Small Cup?

    Some dishwashers may also have small compartments for pre-wash detergent or special cleaning agents, so if your cup looks different or is located elsewhere, check your user manual to be sure.

    Final Thoughts

    That small cup in the corner of your dishwasher is a simple but essential part of keeping your dishes spotless and sparkling. By using rinse aid properly, you’ll reduce spots, improve drying, and enjoy beautifully clean dishes every time.

    Next time you load your dishwasher, take a moment to fill that little cup—it really makes a difference!
