this dishwasher uses less water so you need to use less detergent. With soft water, 1 tablespoon (15ml) of detergent will clean most loads. the detergent dispenser cup has
lines that measure detergent to 1 tablespoon (15ml) and 1.75 tablespoons (25ml). 3 tablespoons (45ml) of detergent will completely ill the detergent dispenser cup.
ATTENTION
To avoid dishware damage, do not use too much detergent if your water supply is soft. Using too much detergent in soft water may cause etching in glassware.

Care and Maintenance
Maintenance Tasks
Certain areas of your dishwasher require occasional maintenance. the maintenance tasks are easy to do and will ensure continued superior performance from your dishwasher.
these tasks are:
• Winterizing Your Dishwasher
• Wiping up Spills and Splash-out
• Clean the Stainless Steel Inner Door and Tub
• Check/Clean the Spray Arm Nozzles
• Check/Clean the Filter System
• Clean the Exterior Door Panel
• Clean the Door Gasket
Winterizing Your Dishwasher
if your dishwasher will be unused for an extended period of time in a location that experiences freezing temperatures (e.g., in a holiday home or through a vacation period), have your dishwasher winterized by an authorized service center.
ATTENTION

3.remove the spray arm as shown in figure 26.
4.look for obstruction in the spray nozzles.
5.If the spray nozzles need cleaning, lush them under running water.
To reinstall the top spray arm:
1.return the top spray arm to its installed position.
2.return the locking nut to its installed position and turn it 1/8 turn clockwise.
3.return the top rack to the top rack roller guides.
14

Wash Cycle Information
To save energy, this dishwasher has a “Smart Control” that automatically adjust the cycle based on soil loads and incoming water temperature. The “Smart Control” makes decisions that can cause the cycle time and water usage to adjust intermittently.
the cycle times listed in the use and Care manual are based on normal soil loads and 120°f incoming water and will vary based
on your actual conditions.
See the Available Cycles Chart to determine the cycles available for your speciic model.
on select models, the Half load feature will reduce the water consumption by approximately 30 percent in the power scrub plus, regular, and auto Wash cycles.
on select models, the eCo feature will reduce energy consumption by approximately 10-25 percent depending on cycle chosen. if additional drying heat is selected, the cycle will be extended by approximately 20 minutes.
if the unit is out of rinse agent, the OPTIDRY™ feature will automatically extend the cycle time by approximately 10 minutes. if pre soak is selected, the cycle will be extended by approximately 15 minutes.
THE NSF SYMBOL
A dishwasher or a dishwasher cycle that has the NSF symbol has been certiied by the NSF International to meet very strict
requirements of wash time and water temperature to ensure dishware and kitchenware sanitization. these requirements are explained in the document NSF/ANSI 184, Residential Dishwashers. More information on NSF Certiication is available at the
nsf website, http://www.nsfconsumer.org/home/appliances.asp.
Your dishwasher is NSF certiied. The dishwasher cycles that are NSF certiied are shown in the chart above. When these cycles are complete, the “Sanitized” indicator on your dishwasher control panel will illuminate.
NOTE: If your household water supply is too hot, your dishwasher’s heating time may be reduced and the “Sanitized” light or symbol may not illuminate. Your Dishwasher installation Manual has information on the recommended temperature for your household hot water supply.

Self Help
Dishwashers may occasionally exhibit problems that are unrelated to a malfunction of the dishwasher itself. the following information may help you with a dishwasher problem without your having to call a repair person.
Dishes do not dry
The rinse agent dispenser may be empty. Check the rinse-aid dispenser and reill it if necessary. Dishware drying can be accelerated and
enhanced by opening the dishwasher door slightly and propping it open with the top rack.
Indicator light(s) do not come on
a fuse may have blown or a circuit breaker tripped. Check the fuse or circuit breaker at your fuse box/breaker box and replace the fuse or reset the breaker if necessary.
Dishwasher does not start
the dishwasher door may not be properly shut. Make certain the dishwasher door is shut and latched.
Dishwasher runs a long time
if the dishwasher completes the cycle, but the run time seems exceptionally long, it may be due to cold incoming water. Before starting the dishwasher, open the hot water faucet at the sink nearest the dishwasher. run the water until it runs hot, then turn off the water and start the dishwasher.
Machine cycle does not advance to rinse
NOTE: the installation Manual that came with your dishwasher will help you with the following instructions. the water supply line may be shut off. Check the water supply valve and open it if it’s shut.
White spots left on dishes
More rinse agent is needed. Go to the adding Detergent and rinse agent section of this manual for instructions on increasing the amount of rinse agent dispensed.
Water not pumped from dishwasher
Make certain the drain hose isn’t kinked, clogged, or improperly installed. Make certain a portion of the drain hose is at least 20 inches above the dishwasher’s enclosure loor (see the Installation Manual). Filters may be clogged. Make certain the ilter system isn’t clogged
(see the Care and Maintenance section of this manual). the kitchen sink drain may be clogged; you may need a plumber rather than a serviceman for the dishwasher. if an air gap is installed at sink, it may be clogged.
Detergent dispenser cover will not shut
You may not be correctly shutting the detergent dispenser cover, or a cycle was not inished and should be cancelled. Go to the Adding
Detergent and rinse agent section of this manual for instructions on shutting the detergent dispenser cover. Go to the operating the Dishwasher section of this manual for instructions on canceling a cycle.
Streaks on glassware
too much rinse agent is being dispensed. Go to the adding Detergent and rinse agent section of this manual for instructions on decreasing the amount of rinse agent dispensed.
Rattling noises
utensils may not be properly arranged.
Suds in dishwasher
You may have used the wrong type of dishwashing detergent. use only automatic dishwasher detergents.
Unsatisfactory washing results
• Incorrect amount of detergent.
• Utensils incorrectly arranged or rack overloaded.
• Spray arm rotation blocked by utensils.
• Spray arm nozzles need cleaning.
• Filters not properly itted into position.
• Unsuitable cycle selected.
