Important Safety Instructions WARNING When using your dishwasher, follow basic precautions, including the following: For your Safety • Use your dishwasher only as instructed in this Use and Care Manual. • This Manual does not cover every possible condition and situation that may occur. Use common sense and caution when installing, operating and maintaining any appliance. • NSF certified residential dishwashers are not intended for licensed food establishments.
Feature Overview How your dishwasher cleans Your dishwasher cleans by spraying a mixture of hot water and detergent through the spray arms against soiled surfaces. First, the dishwasher drains for a few seconds to remove soils dropped while loading, then fills with water covering the filter area. Water is then pumped through the spray arms. Soil particles go through and across the filter and down the drain as the water is pumped out. This series of steps are repeated as needed.
Operating Instructions Energy Use Normal Operating Sounds The yellow energy guide label that came on your unit tells how much energy it would use in one year and how it compares to others that are available. The energy is based on the Normal cycles response to tests that apply soils and dishware that simulate the average use. Eight place settings of dishware and some serving pieces are used during the test.
Operating Instructions Wa s h C y c l e S e l e c t i o n s Eco Cycle times are approximate and vary by options selected. Hot water is necessary to activate dishwasher detergent and melt fatty food soils. An automatic sensor checks the water temperature for the main wash of each cycle. When HI-TEMP is selected, the sensor checks for an even higher temperature. Run hot water in a faucet nearest the dishwasher until water is hot before starting.
Operating Instructions Energy Option Selections Hi-Temp When HI-TEMP option is selected, the dishwasher heats water in the main wash to approximately 1400F (600C). This increase in water temperature helps dishwasher detergent remove food, grease and soil from dishes more effectively and aids in drying. HITEMP option can only be used with AUTO, HEAVY, NORMAL and UPPER cycles. Sanitize To sanitize your dishes and glassware, select the SANITIZE option.
Operating Instructions Opening the door while the appliance operates If you open the door while a cycle is running or delay is counting down, the appliance stops. The LEDs of selected cycle and options are illuminated. The status window displays the remaining cycle time or delay time and then displays ‘Press Start’. To resume, press START pad and close the dishwasher door immediately. The status window displays ‘Close door’ after the START pad is pressed.

Preparing & Loading Dishes NOTE Racks and Features in your dishwasher model may vary in appearance from illustrations in this manual. Dish Preparation Scrape away large pieces of food, bones, pits, toothpicks, etc. The continuously filtered wash fluid will remove remaining food particles. Burned-on foods should be loosened before loading. Empty liquids from glasses and cups.
Preparing & Loading Dishes Flex Wash The Flex Wash system gives you the ability to wash the inside areas of baby bottles, narrow glassware and other items. To turn this feature on turn these clips to have them pointing upward (B). To turn off just slide them back down toward the rack (A). See image below.
Preparing & Loading Dishes Fold-down Tines Upper Rack The fold-down tines in the top and bottom racks makes it easy to load those extra large and hardto-fit items. The tines may be left up for normal use or folded down for more flexible loading. The Stemware holder is used to securely hold your wine glasses in place for the best wash. To properly secure you glass simply press the stem of the glass into the center of the Cupshelf the plastic pieces will secure around the stem to hold the glass in place.

Preparing & Loading Dishes Loading the Silverware Basket CAUTION TO AVOID CUT INJURY: Load sharp items (knives, skewers, etc.) pointing down. Failure to do so may result in injury. When covers are up, mix items in each section of the basket with some pointing up and some down to avoid nesting. Water spray cannot reach nested items. Features and appearance of racks and silverware basket may vary from your model.
Dishwasher Dispenser & Detergents Filing the Detergent Dispenser How much Detergent to use The detergent dispenser has one covered cup. The covered cup opens automatically to release detergent. The amount of detergent to use depends on the water hardness. Water hardness is measured in grains per gallon. Using too little detergent can result in poor cleaning and hard water filming or spotting.
Dishwasher Dispenser & Detergents Dosage of detergent Place a single detergent tablet or packet into the detergent dispenser compartment. Detergent Usage Chart Water Hardness Amount (teaspoons) Dispenser cup level: Soft Water (0-3 grains) Medium Hard Water (4-8 grains) 4 teaspoons 6 teaspoons First Line Second Line Hard Water (9-12 grains) 8 teaspoons Full NOTE For very hard water, detergent alone may not be enough.
Dishwasher Dispenser & Detergents Rinse Aid Rinse aid greatly improves drying, reduces water spots, filming, and lubricates wash arm bearing for proper rotation. With it water “sheets” off dishes rather than forming water droplets that cling and leave spots. A dispenser, located next to the detergent cup, automatically releases a measured amount of rinse aid during the last rinse. If spotting and poor drying are problems, increase the amount of rinse aid dispensed.
Care & Cleaning Outside - Occasionally wipe with a mild nonabrasive detergent and water. Rinse and dry. Care of Drain Air Gap If a drain air gap was installed for your built-in dishwasher, check to make sure it is clean so the dishwasher will drain properly. A drain air gap is usually mounted on the counter top and can be inspected by removing the cover. This is not part of your dishwasher and is not covered by warranty.
Solutions to Common Problems Winterizing NOTE To achieve the best results from your dishwasher, visit www.dishwashingexpert.com for general tips regarding the performance and operation of your dishwasher. A dishwasher left in an unheated place should be protected from freezing. Have a qualified person do the following. To Disconnect Service: 1. Turn off electrical power to the dishwasher at the supply source by removing fuses or tripping circuit breaker. 2. Shut off water supply.
Solutions to Common Problems Glassware/Flatware Spotted or Cloudy • Check water hardness. For extremely hard water, it may be necessary to install a water softener. (See Detergent Chart). • Water temperature may be low. Avoid extremely low or high temperatures. (See Factors Affecting Performance. • Avoid overloading and improper loading. (See Preparing and Loading Dishes). • Use fresh detergent. Old detergent is ineffective. • Make sure rinse aid dispenser is filled.
Solutions to Common Problems Vapor at Vent Dishwasher has an Odor • Water vapor escapes from the vent during the drying part of cycle. This is normal. • Soiled dishes left in dishwasher too long can create an odor. Use Rinse cycle. • Spilled rinse aid can cause foam and lead to overflowing. Wipe up any spills with a damp cloth. • There will be a “new” smell when first installed. This is normal. • • Check to see that dishwasher is level. (See Installation Instructions).
