The following table describes the fees and expenses that may be incurred when you buy and hold shares of the fund.

Shareholder Fees Caption [Text] rr_ShareholderFeesCaption

Shareholder fees

(fees paid directly from your investment) rr_ShareholderFeeOther none
Operating Expenses Caption [Text] rr_OperatingExpensesCaption

Annual Operating Expenses

(expenses that you pay each year as a % of the value of your investment)

Portfolio Turnover [Heading] rr_PortfolioTurnoverHeading Portfolio Turnover
Portfolio Turnover [Text Block] rr_PortfolioTurnoverTextBlock

The fund pays transaction costs, such as commissions, when it buys and sells securities (or "turns over" its portfolio). A higher portfolio turnover rate may indicate higher transaction costs and may result in higher taxes when fund shares are held in a taxable account. These costs, which are not reflected in annual operating expenses or in the example, affect the fund's performance. During the most recent fiscal year, the fund's portfolio turnover rate was 30% of the average value of its portfolio.

Portfolio Turnover, Rate rr_PortfolioTurnoverRate 30.00%
Expense Example Narrative [Text Block] rr_ExpenseExampleNarrativeTextBlock

This example helps compare the cost of investing in the fund with the cost of investing in other funds.

Let's say, hypothetically, that the annual return for shares of the fund is 5% and that your shareholder fees and the annual operating expenses for shares of the fund are exactly as described in the fee table. This example illustrates the effect of fees and expenses, but is not meant to suggest actual or expected fees and expenses or returns, all of which may vary. For every $10,000 you invested, here's how much you would pay in total expenses if you sell all of your shares at the end of each time period indicated:
