How to Fill Up the Cascade in a GE Monogram Dishwasher

Cascade is a dishwasher-detergent and rinse-aid brand suitable for use in GE Monogram and other modern dishwashers. The detergent compartment of a Monogram dishwasher needs replenishing at the start of each cycle, while the rinse aid lasts approximately a month. Without detergent or rinse aid, dishes and glassware will not be cleaned properly, causing spots or film to appear. Make a habit of refilling your detergent and rinse-aid compartments on a regular basis.

Instructions

    • 1

      Open the dishwasher door as wide as it will go, so the detergent and rinse-aid compartments are parallel with the floor.

    • 2

      Slide the latch over the large square detergent compartment to flip open the lid. Twist the cap off the rinse-aid holder.

    • 3

      Pour rinse aid into the compartment with the circular lid until the plastic indicator window shows full.

    • 4

      Add a detergent tablet or pour the appropriate amount of detergent into the rectangular compartment. Check the label of your detergent for the right amounts.

    • 5

      Close the detergent cover until it latches shut. Replace the rinse aid cover and turn until it locks into position. The dishwasher is ready to run.
