Welcome to our help center blog, where we’re here to make dishwashing a breeze! In this guide, we’ll show you how to use your dishwasher and sink disposal at Wander St. George Island like a pro so you can tick that off from your to-do list and quickly head back to the beach!

How to operate the dishwasher

Add in the detergent

To add detergent, follow these simple steps:

1. Open the door and push the dispenser cover latch downwards and open it. The dishwashing pods are located under the sink.

2. To close the detergent lid, gently push it until it slides and clicks into place.

3. If you want to prewash, add detergent to the recessed compartment on the lid.

Important tip: Make sure to use only dishwasher detergent to prevent suds.

Select a cycle and let's start washing

1. Once you have loaded your dishes, make sure to turn on the dishwasher by pressing the On/Off button.

2. Select the desired cycle that suits your load and how dirty it is.

3. Press the Start button and close the door to start the cycle.

4. Once the dishwasher cycle is complete, you will hear a chime. The display will show 0, indicating that it's time to collect the dishes.

How to use the sink disposal

1. Start with cold water: Before turning on the sink disposal, run cold water through the sink. This helps keep the disposal cool during operation.

2. Clear the sink: Make sure the sink is clear of any large food scraps or debris that could cause clogs or damage to the disposal.

3. Turn on the water: Once the sink is clear, turn on the cold water to a moderate flow.

4. Start the disposal: With the water running, turn on the sink disposal.

5. Feed the food scraps: Gradually feed small amounts of food scraps into the disposal. Avoid overloading it with a large quantity of food at once, as this can cause clogs or strain the motor.

6. Allow the disposal to finish: After you have fed all the food scraps into the disposal, let it run for a few extra seconds to ensure all the waste is properly ground up and flushed away.

7. Turn off the disposal: Once the disposal has finished grinding the food scraps, turn off the unit. Allow the water to run for a few more seconds to help flush away any remaining waste.

8. Rinse and clean: After turning off the disposal, continue running the water for a few more seconds to rinse the sink and drain.

Remember to avoid putting non-food items, grease, oil, or fibrous materials (such as celery or corn husks) into the sink disposal, as they can cause clogs or damage to the unit.
