Can I use any detergent in my Kenmore dishwasher?
No, it is recommended to use only dishwasher detergent in your Kenmore dishwasher. Using any other detergent, such as dish soap or laundry detergent, can cause excessive sudsing and may damage the dishwasher. Dishwasher detergents are specifically formulated to effectively clean and remove food residues, while also being compatible with the dishwasher's components. Using the wrong detergent can result in poor cleaning performance and potential damage to the dishwasher's pump, spray arm, and filters. It is important to follow the manufacturer's instructions and use only dishwasher detergent to maintain optimal performance and longevity of your Kenmore dishwasher.
