I put dishwasher soap in my rinse aid dispenser?

lyban · Oct 7, 2008

I hope I have the right forum for this question.
Tonight I wanted to add some rinse aid to my dispenser in the dishwasher and I stupidly picked up the bottle of Dawn dishwashing detergent. I filled the dispenser.
I am now running a load thru the washer with lots of suds.
What should I do after. Will this take 40 or 50 washes to get rid of this or is there another way to do it.
Thanks for any advice.

soap

Since it is injected into the rinse cycle, it depends on when it happens whether it will then be rinsed off or stay on the dishes

Just a thought...

My buddy bought a dishwasher that I think someone must have done something like that too. My buddy put some De-foamer in, and ran a load. I just called him, and he said that you can get that De-foamer where ever you rent carpet cleaning machines.

Why not just take the dispenser cap off and use a syringe to "suck " out the solution.
Been there, done that

Remember that the Jet Dry always dispenses in the LAST rinse, so whatever goes in at this time will dry on your dishes...

I would take the front off the machine, disconnect the dispenser, remove it and try to rinse it all out in the sink. Then reinstall and refill with Jet Dry.

I have done that before

I made that mistake before.....

it can make soap literally explode out of the front of
the unit...

lots of bubbles.

wipe up what ever you can and then simply
run the thing about a dozen times

defoamer

I am not sure you want to eat off plates with carpet cleaner defoamer on them.

How drunk were you when you grabbed that big soap bottle and confused it for one of those tiny Jet-Dry bottles.

Atleast it wasn't the other big bottle.

I put dishwasher soap in my rinse aid dispenser?
