Safety and warnings 3 US CA

Your DishDrawer has been carefully designed to operate safely during normal dishwashing procedures. Please keep the following guidelines in mind when you are using your DishDrawer®. Please read all instructions before operating the DishDrawer®.

Important safety precautions

The information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire or explosion or to prevent property damage, personal injury or loss of life.

Use the DishDrawer® only for its intended function as described in this User Guide.

Use only detergents or rinse agent recommended for use in a domestic Dishwasher and keep them out of reach of children. Check that the detergent dispenser is empty after the completion of each wash program.

When loading items to be washed, locate sharp items so that they are not likely to damage the lid seal and load sharp knives with the handles up to reduce the risk of cut type injuries.

Do not touch the heater plate during or immediately after use.

Do not operate your DishDrawer® unless all the enclosure panels are properly in place. Do not tamper with the controls.

Do not abuse, sit on, stand in or on the drawer or dish rack of the DishDrawer®.

The cup racks are designed to support cups, glasses and kitchen utensils. When the cup racks are in the DishDrawer® do not lean on or use the cup racks to support your body weight.

To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to play in or on the DishDrawer®.

Under certain conditions hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot water heater system that has not been used for two weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water system has not been used for such a period, before using the dishwasher, turn on all hot water taps and let the water flow from each for several minutes. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. As gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame during this time.

Remove the door to the washing compartment when removing an old dishwasher from service or discarding it.

Dishwasher detergents are alkaline. They can be dangerous if swallowed. Avoid contact with skin and eyes, keep children and infirm person(s) away from the dishwasher when the drawer is opened.

US CA 4 Safety and warnings

Important safety precautions

Installation

This DishDrawer® must be installed and located in accordance with the Installation Instructions before it is used. If you did not receive Installation Instruction sheets with your DishDrawer®, you can order them by calling your Authorized Service Agent or from the DCS by Fisher & Paykel website, www.dcsappliances.com.

Installation and service must be performed by a qualified technician.

If the power supply cord is damaged, it must be replaced by a dealer or Authorized Service Center or a similar qualified trades person in order to avoid a hazard.

Ensure the DishDrawer® is secured to adjacent cabinetry using the brackets provided. Failure to do so may result in an unstable product, which may cause damage or injury.

Do not operate this appliance if it is damaged, malfunctioning, partially disassembled or has missing or broken parts, including a damaged power supply cord or plug.

Do not store or use gas, or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of the DishDrawer®. Connect to a properly rated, protected and sized power supply circuit to avoid electrical overload. Make sure that the power supply cord is located so that it will not be stepped on, tripped over or otherwise subject to damage or stress.

Do not install or store the DishDrawer® where it will be exposed to temperatures below freezing or exposed to weather.

Do not use an extension cord or a portable electrical outlet device (e.g. multi-socket outlet box) to connect the DishDrawer® to the power supply.

This appliance must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is installed and grounded

in accordance with all local codes and ordinances. Improper connection of the equipmentgrounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service representative if you are in doubt as to whether the appliance is properly grounded.

Maintenance

Do not repair or replace any part of the appliance or attempt any servicing unless specifically recommended in this User Guide. We recommend that you call an Authorized Service Agent. Keep the floor around your appliance clean and dry to reduce the possibility of slipping. Keep the area around/underneath your appliance free from the accumulation of combustible materials, such as lint, paper, rags and chemicals.

When cleaning the underside of the filter plate, care must be taken on the sharp outer edge to avoid the risk of cut type injuries.

Important safety precautions

Important!

Under no circumstances should you open the drawer while the DishDrawer® is in operation.

Operational

Always press the button to pause and wait until you hear the three additional beeps before opening the drawer.

The DishDrawer® must be used with the motor assembly, filter plate, drain filter and spray arm in place.

When disconnecting the appliance grasp the plug rather than the power supply cord or junction of cord to avoid damage.

Take care when loading the DishDrawer® not to load dishware items so they prevent the lid from properly sealing with the drawer. Items should be placed so they do not protrude above and/or forced into the drawer, otherwise a service call may result.

Household appliances are not intended to be played with by children. Children or persons with a disability which limits their ability to use the appliance, should have a responsible person instruct them in its use. The instructor should be satisfied that they can then use the appliance without danger to themselves or their surroundings.

Close supervision is necessary if this appliance is used by or near children. Do not allow children to play inside, on or with this appliance or any discarded appliance.

If a Dishwasher cleaner is used, we would strongly recommend a wash program with detergent should be run immediately afterward, to prevent any damage to the DishDrawer®.

The DishDrawer® is designed for washing normal household utensils. Items that are contaminated by petrol, paint, steel or iron debris, corrosive, acidic or alkaline chemicals are not to be washed in the DishDrawer®.

If the DishDrawer® is not being used for long periods of time, turn the electricity and water supply to the DishDrawer® off.

US CA 10 Caring for your dinnerware

The combination of high temperatures and dishwasher detergent may cause damage to some items if they are washed in a dishwasher. Remember, if in any doubt about any aspect

concerning items washed in the DishDrawer®, follow the instructions from the manufacturer of the items, or wash the item by hand.

Cutlery & silverware

All cutlery and silverware should be rinsed immediately after use to prevent tarnishing caused by some foods. The Rinse wash program is useful for this. Silver items should not come into contact with stainless steel, e.g. other cutlery. Mixing these items can cause staining. Remove silver cutlery from the DishDrawer® and hand dry it immediately after the program has finished if needed.

Aluminum

Aluminum can be dulled by dishwasher detergent. The degree of change depends on the quality of the product.

Other metals

Iron and cast iron objects can rust and stain other items. Copper, pewter and brass tend to stain.

Woodware

Wooden items are generally sensitive to heat and water. Regular use in a dishwasher may cause deterioration over time. If in doubt, wash by hand.

Glassware

Most everyday glassware is dishwasher safe. Crystal, very fine and antique glassware may etch that is, become opaque. You may prefer to wash these items by hand.

Plastic

Some plastic may change shape or color with hot water. Check manufacturer’s instructions about washing plastic items. Washable plastic items should be weighed down so they do not flip over and fill with water or fall through the basket during the wash.

Decorated items

Most modern china patterns are dishwasher safe. Antique items, those with a pattern painted over the glaze, gold rims or hand painted china may be more sensitive to machine washing. If in doubt, wash by hand.

Glued items

Certain adhesives are softened or dissolved in machine washing. If in doubt, wash by hand.

Vacation time

If the DishDrawer® is not going to be used for some time, we recommend you ensure the baskets are empty. Leave the inside of the DishDrawer® clean. Leave the drawers ajar to allow air to circulate. Turn off both the power and water supply to the DishDrawer®.

Dishwasher standards test 11 US CA

The DishDrawer®s are tested to various standards for both wash and dry performance.

US CA 12 Accessories

The inserts and racks can be added or removed to suit your individual needs. If you have the double DishDrawer® model, some of the accessories are interchangeable between the two drawers. For example you can combine the two Mega Racks into one drawer and wash all cups and glasses, leaving the other drawer for plates and larger items.

a. basket

The basket holds some of the accessories in place and keeps dishes away from the spray arm.

b. Drain filter access panel

The drain filter access panel is designed to snap onto the basket over the drain filter. This prevents objects from touching the base of the DishDrawer® and stopping the rotation of the spray arm, while still giving access to the drain filter.

c. Mega rack

The Mega rack is designed to hold glasses, cups and small plates.

d. Plate insert

The plate insert supports plates and bowls.

How to install the Mega rack

To install the Mega rack, place the outer legs of the rack on top of the basket, and clip the Mega rack to the side of the basket. When the Mega rack is correctly installed it should not feel loose in the basket.

Accessories 13 US CA

Cup racks

Cups, glasses and kitchen utensils can be placed on the left and right hand side of the cup racks.

For best performance ensure there are no large items below, blocking the wash water from reaching the cup racks.

Wine glasses can be supported on the cup racks if used in conjunction with the Mega rack.

There are stops on the cup rack to prevent cups from touching the DishDrawer® wall. This will maximize the dry and wash performance.

Cutlery basket

Cutlery, small kitchen utensils and some plastic lids are best placed into the cutlery basket.

For best wash performance, we recommend loading cutlery with handles pointing down and sharp utensils with their handles facing up, to reduce the risk of injury.

Mix spoons, knives and forks within each section, to stop cutlery from nesting together and to ensure the water circulates freely.

Keep stainless steel from touching silver cutlery to avoid staining.

Small items, like plastic lids, can be placed under the antinesting grid. This will prevent them from being displaced by wash water and falling to the bottom, where they may stop the spray arm rotation.

US CA 14 Loading

Wash water for the DishDrawer® comes from the spray arm which is situated inside the base of the drawer. The spray arm rotates, providing wash water to all areas of the wash compartment so care needs to be taken when loading dishes to ensure there is enough space for the water to reach all areas, particularly the cup racks. If there are any items blocking the spray arm path or the wash water, then the performance will be reduced.

How to load your DishDrawer®

Note: The basket and its inserts are not designed to be lifted out of the DishDrawer® while loaded with dishes.

Fisher & Paykel DD224P5, DD124P5 User Manual

Loading 15 US CA

How NOT to load your DishDrawer®

Overcrowded and wash water will not reach some of the dinnerware.

Cups, glasses and bowls must have their openings facing down.

Ensure dishware items are not forced into or protrude out of the drawer as it may prevent the lid from properly sealing which could result in a service call. Locate sharp items safely to prevent injuring the user and damaging the lid assembly.

Check the bottom of the cutlery basket to ensure sharp or pointed items have not come through as they may stop spray arm rotation.

The plates are nesting together and wash water may not get through.

Ensure cutlery are not nesting or stuck together. They need to be evenly spread out.

Ensure cutlery has not fallen through the basket and stopped the spray arm from rotating.

The large bowl is blocking wash water reaching the cup racks.

Large utensils should be on cup racks so they do not become dislodged and stop the spray arm from rotating.

Sharp or pointed items must be placed horizontally or with sharp edges/points facing down to avoid risk of injury.

US CA 16 Detergent dispenser

Important!

Only use powdered detergent recommended for domestic automatic dishwashers in the detergent dispenser.

Dishwasher detergents are strongly alkaline and can be dangerous if swallowed. Avoid contact with skin and eyes.

Keep children and infirm persons away from the DishDrawer® when the drawer is open.

Hard water situations

If you live in a hard water situation, we recommend the installation of a household water softener to improve the water quality, detergent effectiveness and prevent the build-up of calcium deposits on dishes and in the DishDrawer®.

Certain brands of dishwasher detergent contain varying quantities of phosphates, which help soften water. We suggest

you use a detergent with high phosphate content to improve the wash. The detergent compartments need to be completely FULL and rinse agent is used with its setting fixed at 5.

We recommend the use of a dishwasher cleaner/descaler whenever you notice a build-up of calcium deposits in your DishDrawer®.

After you have used the dishwasher cleaner/descaler you must run another wash program with detergent to prevent damage to the DishDrawer®.

Soft water situations

If you live in an area of naturally soft water or your household water is softened, avoid using too much detergent in your

DishDrawer®. An excess amount of detergent is very aggressive on glassware and may cause irreversible etching.

Etching is a chemical deterioration that occurs on the surface of glassware when it is subjected to high temperatures, too

much detergent and/or soft water situations. Etching is caused by a combination of very hot water, which causes the detergent to become very aggressive, but because the water is soft, there are no water hardness mineral ions for the detergent to bind to,

so it extracts mineral ions directly from the glass.

Etching looks like rainbow-colored film, as the glass is subjected to further washing the surface will eventually appear opaque. This type of etching is irreversible.

To prevent further etching from occurring on glassware, use less detergent (follow the recommended detergent quantities in the User Guide for soft water situations), and ensure the dishwasher is not overloaded, so water can reach all the dishes during the wash.

US CA 18 Rinse agent dispenser

We highly recommend the regular use of liquid rinse agent to give the best drying results. Rinse agent gives a streak free, sparkling clean look to glass and chinaware, in addition it

prevents metal from tarnishing. The rinse agent dispenser is on the inside of each drawer, located underneath the detergent dispenser. The dispenser holds approximately 1.7 fl oz (50 ml) of rinse agent.

Filling the rinse agent dispenser

1Turn the plug counter-clockwise and remove.

2 Pour the rinse agent into the circular opening.

3Take care not to spill rinse agent into the

DishDrawer®. Any spillages must be wiped up to prevent excess foaming. Failure to wipe rinse agent spillages may result in a service call which will not be covered by warranty.

4Fit the plug back into the original position.

How much rinse agent to use

The regulator may need adjusting to suit your water conditions. The lowest setting is ‘1’ and the highest is ‘5’. Refer to Option Adjustments section to adjust the rinse agent setting. If there is excessive foam at the end of the wash, reduce the setting. If dishes are wet or streaky after drying, increase the setting.

Rinse agent indicator light

If the rinse agent indicator light is red, refill the dispenser. If the rinse agent indicator light is dimly lit or not lit at all, there is enough rinse agent for the wash.

Note:

Lighter colored rinse agents will not dim the indicator light as effectively as darker colored rinse agents.

When the rinse agent is being dispensed, you may notice some unusual noises during the wash, this is normal.

Option adjustments 19 US CA

The following options can be adjusted to suit your preferences.

Rinse Agent setting

Reduce the Rinse agent setting if there is excess foam after a wash program. Increase the Rinse agent setting if dishes are wet or streaky after a wash program.

Auto Power setting

By default, DishDrawer® will automatically turn on whenever the drawer is opened. Washing will not start until the drawer is closed and the button has been pressed. If you do not want the DishDrawer® to turn on automatically, this feature can be turned off.

End of Wash Program Beeps

By default, DishDrawer® will beep six times at the end of a wash program. This feature can be turned off.

Closed Drawer option

The Closed Drawer option will lock the DishDrawer® when the drawer is closed. When you wish to open the drawer, press the button. When the drawer is fully closed again, the lid will automatically seal and lock after 30 seconds. If the Lock feature is used in conjunction with the Closed Drawer Option, pressing the button will not unlock the drawer. The Lock feature must be turned off to enable DishDrawer® to be opened.

Note: this option is highly recommended if the DishDrawer is to be used in motor homes.
