Personally, I wouldn't recommend using CLR in the dishwasher unless you live in an area with extremely hard water and don't have a water softener. If this is the case, Jelmar (the manufacturer of CLR) recommends using 1/2 cup CLR once the empty dishwasher is at least half filled with water.

Pour half a cupful in the base, (no dishes) and let it run a short cycle. This will help to clear the jets.
