GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
This appliance must be grounded to
a metal, permanent wiring system or
an equipment grounding conductor
must be run with the circuit
conductors and connected to the
equipment grounding terminal or
lead on the dishwasher. See the
Installation Instructions included with
this dishwasher for more information
on electrical requirements.
9 WARNING
RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK!
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.
Improper connection of the
equipment-grounding conductor
can result in risk of electric
shock. Check with a qualified
electrician if you are in doubt
whether the appliance is
properly grounded.
Safe Operation
Use this dishwasher only for its
intended function, which is the
washing of household dishware and
kitchenware rated as dishwasher
safe.
Use only detergents or rinsing agents
recommended for use in a
dishwasher, and keep them out of
the reach of children.
9 CAUTION
When loading items to be
washed:
■ Locate sharp items so they
are not likely to damage the
door seal.
■ Load knives and other sharp
utensils with their HANDLES
UP to reduce the risk of
cut-type injuries.
■ Do not wash plastic items
unless they are marked
“dishwasher safe” or the
equivalent. For plastic items
not so marked, check the
manufacturer’s
recommendations.
■ Do not operate your
dishwasher unless all
enclosure panels are in
place.
■ Do not tamper with or
override controls and
interlocks.
Do not abuse, sit or stand on the
door or dish racks of the dishwasher.
9 WARNING
RISK OF INJURY!
To avoid risk of injury, always
use caution when opening the
door during or following a wash
cycle as hot water or steam
may escape. Do not fully open
the door until water noises have
stopped and steam has
subsided.
NSF/ANSI 184 Certified residential
dishwashers are not intended for
licensed food establishments.

Child Safety
To reduce risk of injury, do not allow
children to play in or on the
dishwasher.
When children become old enough
to operate the appliance, it is the
responsibility of the parents/legal

Proper Care and Maintenance
9 WARNING
RISK OF EXPLOSION!
Under certain conditions,
hydrogen gas may be produced
in a hot water system that has
not been used for two weeks or
more. Hydrogen gas is
explosive. Before using a
dishwasher that is connected to
a hot water system that has
been unused for two weeks or
longer, turn on all hot water
faucets and let the water flow
from each for several minutes.
This will release any
accumulated hydrogen gas. As
the gas is explosive, do not
smoke or use an open flame
during this time.
Remove the dishwasher door to the
washing compartment when
removing an old dishwasher for
service or discarding.
To avoid floor damage and possible
mold growth, do not allow wet areas
to remain around or under the
dishwasher.
To avoid dishwasher damage, do not
allow water to remain in your
dishwasher systems through
extended periods of freezing
temperatures. Freezing temperatures
can damage the water fill valve and
potentially other components of your
dishwasher.
NOTICE
It is highly recommended for the end
user to become familiar with the
procedure to shut off the incoming
water supply and the procedure to
shut off the incoming power supply.
See the Installation Instructions or
contact your installer for more
information.

Loading the racks
For best dishwashing results,
observe the following when loading
the dishwasher:
■ Do not pre-wash items with
loosely attached food soil.
■ Remove all food particles, bones,
toothpicks and excessive grease.
■ Pre-treat items having burned-on,
baked-on or starchy soils.
■ Load dishes in the dishwasher
racks so the insides of bowls,
pots and pans are facing the
spray arms.
■ Avoid nesting and contact points
between dishes.
■ Separate items of dissimilar
metals. Use care to not block
movement of the spray arms.
■ Only wash household dishware
and kitchenware rated as
dishwasher-safe.
Refer to the Dishware Materials
section for more information
about dishware suitability.
NOTICE
To avoid dishwasher damage, do not
load the dishwasher with paper
products, plastic bags, packing
materials or anything other than
normal, dishwasher safe dishware
and kitchenware.
Loading the upper rack
Ensure items do not protrude through
the bottom of the racks and block the
spray arms.
Note: When pushing the upper
rack 12 into the dishwasher, push it
until it stops against the back of the
tub so the upper rack spray
arm 1: connects to the water
supply at the back of the tub. Do not
push racks in using the door.
Loading the lower rack
Place large items in the lower
rack 9". Load pots, pans and bowls
upside down. Do not block the vent
hole 1J with tall baking sheets.

Loading the silverware
basket
Place knives and sharp utensils with
their handles up and forks and
spoons with their handles down. If
large or oddly-shaped items are
loaded in the silverware basket, be
sure they do not nest together.
9 WARNING
RISK OF INJURY!
The sharp points and edges of
knives and other sharp utensils
can cause serious injury. Load
knives and other sharp utensils
with edges down. Do not allow
children to handle or play near
knives and sharp utensils.
The Double Flex silverware basket
This basket splits along its length,
resulting in two halves that may be
placed in a variety of positions in the
lower rack 9", greatly increasing
the lower rack’s loading versatility.
The basket snaps together either
side by side or back to back.
To split the Double Flex silverware
basket:
Grasp the basket and slide the two
halves in opposite directions and
then pull the two halves apart.
Side by side
Back to back
To assemble the Double Flex
silverware basket:
Hold the two halves side by side or
back to back, so that the tab on one
basket can slip into the notch on the
other basket. Push the two halves in
opposite directions until they click.
Loading the Dishwasher en-us
17
Note: The silverware basket lid may
also be folded downward in order to
leave the basket open.
This dishwasher is equipped with a
silverware drawer that should
accommodate most silverware
loading needs.
However, if you are washing while the
silverware drawer has been removed,
or with excess silverware, a
silverware basket is also included.
When loading the silverware basket
you should avoid excessive contact
points and nesting of similar items
(allowing two spons to rest inside
one another).
A good way to avoid excessive
contact points is to load the
silverware basket with the lids
closed, inserting each piece of
silverware into one of the individual
slots as shown.
Unloading the dishwasher
When unloading the dishwasher, to
prevent water from dripping onto dry
dishes, unload the lower
rack 9" first. Next, unload the
silverware basket 1j followed by
the upper rack 12, and then the
third rack (if equipped).
Note: Dishes are more likely to chip
when unloading before cooling.
Adjusting the height of the
rack
If required, the height of the upper
rack 12 can be adjusted to create
more space for taller utensils either in
the upper or lower rack.

Use only detergent specifically
designed for dishwashers. For best
results, use fresh powdered
dishwashing detergent or detergent
tabs.
NOTICE
To avoid dishwasher damage:
■ Do not use hand dishwashing
products in your dishwasher.
■ Do not use too much detergent if
your water is soft. Using too much
detergent with soft water may
cause etching in glassware and
fine china.
This dishwasher uses less water than
most, therefore, less detergent is
required. With soft water,
1 tablespoon (15 ml) of detergent
will clean most loads. The detergent
dispenser cup has lines that measure
detergent to 1 tablespoon (15 ml)
and 1.75 tablespoons (25 ml).
3 tablespoons (45 ml) of detergent
will completely fill the detergent
dispenser.
Note: If you do not know the
hardness of your water supply, use
15 ml of detergent. Increase the
amount if necessary to the least
amount required to get your
kitchenware clean.
Use the measuring lines in the
detergent dispenser cup as a guide
to measure the amount of detergent
recommended in the following table.

Dishwasher Cycle Options
Delay
Allows you to delay the start time of
your dishwasher up to 24 hours.
Half Load
Can reduce water consumption when
washing small, lightly soiled loads
that fill approximately half of the
dishwasher’s capacity.
Delicate
This option’s reduced time and
temperature are best for lightly soiled
items with easy to remove food soils.
The option also reduces the
likelihood of cloudy glasses. Rinse
aid is recommended for the high
gloss drying function (even when
using combination detergents).
Sanitize
Increases the temperatures and
retains them for an extra long time to
obtain a defined disinfecting
performance. Continuous use of this
function increases the hygiene status.
This additional option is ideal for
cleaning items such as chopping
boards and baby bottles.
Using the Sanitize option may also
improve drying. The cycle time and
energy usage may be increased.
Extra Dry
Used in combination with a wash
cycle (except Rinse), the Extra Dry
option raises the temperature and
extends the drying time to further
enhance drying results and provide a
brilliant shine. The energy usage may
be increased.
ExtraScrub
This option increases pressure and
temperature in the lower rack for
intensive cleaning.

Wash Cycle Information
To save energy, this dishwasher has
EcoSense where the sensors in the
dishwasher automatically adjust the
cycle length, temperature and water
changes based on the amount of
food soil and the incoming water
temperature. The “Smart Control”
makes decisions that can cause the
cycle time and water usage to adjust
intermittently. Wash cycle times are
based on 120°F (49° C) water
supply. If your household water
supply is different than 120°F
(49° C), your dishwasher’s cycle
times may be impacted.

9 WARNING
RISK OF INJURY!
To avoid risk of injury, always
use caution when opening the
door during or following a wash
cycle as hot water or steam
may escape. Do not fully open
the door until water noises have
stopped and steam has
subsided.
Protection against
unintentional operation
Your dishwasher is equipped with a
function that helps to prevent
unintentional operation (e.g. by
children).
After setting the dishwasher, the
dishwasher door has to be closed
within 4 seconds, otherwise the
operation will be paused. There will
be a signal on the control panel
advising you to press the Start button
again and close the door.
This function will be activated when:
■ pressing Start to begin a wash
cycle
■ setting Delay time and pressing
Start
■ opening the door while Delay time
is active
■ opening the door during a wash
cycle.
Note: This function cannot be
deactivated.
Operating the touch buttons
Buttons are sensitive and should be
touched gently. Avoid any grease or
food particles resting on the buttons
as they could activate the
dishwasher.
Wiping and cleaning can also
activate the dishwasher. For best
results, use bare, clean hands when
touching the buttons.
To clean the touch buttons wipe them
with a dry or slightly damp cloth.
AquaSensor
AquaSensor
The AquaSensor is an optical
measuring device which measures
the cleanliness of the rinse water.
The AquaSensor is used according
to the wash cycle. If the AquaSensor
is active, “clean” rinse water can be
transferred to the next rinse and
water consumption can be reduced
by 0.8–1-5 gal (3–6 liters). If the
rinse water is not yet clear, the water
is drained and is replaced with fresh
water. In the automatic wash cycles
the temperature and running time
can also be adjusted to the degree of
soiling.
