IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING THE APPLIANCE

SAFETY INFORMATION

WARNING

Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a water heater that has not been used for two or more weeks.

HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE.

If the hot water has not been used for two or more weeks, prevent the possibility of damage or injury by turning on all hot water faucets and allowing them to run for several minutes. Do this before using any electrical appliance connected to the hot water system. This simple procedure will allow any built-up hydrogen gas to escape. Since the gas is flammable, do not smoke, use an open flame, or use the appliance during this process.

WARNING

PROPER DISPOSAL OF THE DISHWASHER

Junked or abandoned dishwashers are dangerous…even if they will sit for “just a few days.” If you are getting rid of your dishwasher, please follow the instructions below to help prevent accidents.

Do not allow children to play with, on, or inside this or any discarded appliance.

Take off the door of the washing compartment or remove the latch by removing the two

screws from the latch receiver inside the tub (as shown).

CAUTION

During or after wash cycle, contents may be hot to

the touch. Use care before handling.

Close supervision is necessary if this appliance is

used by or near children. Do not allow children to play around the dishwasher when closing the door, closing the upper rack, or while vertically adjusting the upper rack due to the possibility of small fingers being pinched.

WATER HEATER SAFETY

RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT

TO PREVENT MINOR INJURY AND PROPERTY DAMAGE

Non-Dishware Items: Do not wash items such as

electronic air cleaner filters, furnace filters and paint brushes in your dishwasher. Damage to the dishwasher and discoloration or staining of the dishwasher may result.

Load light-weight, plastic items so they do not

become dislodged and drop to the bottom of the dishwasher—they might come into contact with the heating element and be damaged.

Two screws

CAUTION

This appliance must be supplied with 120V, 60 Hz,

above specifications, it is recommended that a licensed electrician install an approved outlet.

Your dishwasher circuit should not be used for any

other appliance while the dishwasher is in operation as the dishwasher requires the full capacity of the circuit.

range: 1 hour 50 minutes - 2 hours 10 minutes.

Heavy This cycle is meant for heavily soiled dishes, cookware, pots, or pans with dried-on or baked-on

soils. Everyday dishes are safe to be used in this cycle. *Time: 2 hours 31 minutes.

Normal This cycle is meant for daily, regular, or typical use to completely wash a full load of normally

soiled dishes and is designed to conserve both water and energy. *Time range: 1 hour 15 minutes - 1 hour 50 minutes. NOTE: Normal was used to rate the energy efficiency of this dishwasher.

This option is for normally soiled dishes, optimizes wash performance while conserving energy.

This option increases the temperature to help clean heavily soiled dishes and will increase the cycle time by 20 to 50 minutes. Option may be turned On or Off during the wash cycle. This option will also improve dry performance on the Normal cycle.

This option raises the water temperature in the final rinse to sanitize your dishware but may increase cycle time by 60 minutes. The cycle length will vary depending on the temperature of your inlet water. NOTE: This option is monitored for sanitization requirements. If the cycle is interrupted during or after the main wash portion or if the incoming water temperature is so low that adequate water heating cannot be achieved, the sanitizing conditions may not be met. In these cases, the Sanitized or Cycle Sanitized light will not illuminate at the end of the cycle. Utilizing this option will modify the cycle to meet the requirements of Section 6, NSF 184 for soil removal and sanitization efficacy. NOTE: NSF certified residential dishwashers are not intended for licensed food establishments.

Turns on the option for faster drying. This option may add up to 85 minutes to the cycle time. On models with the hidden heater feature, this option boosts the temperature of the dishwasher during the final rinse portion of the cycle then utilizes a fan to circulate air to dry the dishes. This very efficient fan may run for an additional 90 minutes after the cycle is complete to maximize drying performance. Fan operation will end if the door is opened during this 90 minute period. This option is not available with the Rinse cycle.
