DISHWASHERSAFETY
Your safety and the safety of others are very important.
We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety
messages.
This is the safety alert symbol. This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.
All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word "DANGER" or "WARNING."
These words mean:
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't immediately
follow instructions.
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't follow instructions.
All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can happen if the instructions are not followed.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: When using the dishwasher, follow basic precautions, including the following:
m Read all instructions before using the dishwasher. m Use the dishwasher only for its intended function.
m Use only detergents or rinse agents recommended for use
in a dishwasher, and keep them out of the reach of children.
m When loading items to be washed:
1) Locate sharp items so that they are not likely to damage the door seal; and
2) Load sharp knives with the handles up to reduce the risk of cut-type injuries.
m 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.
m Do not touch the heating element during or immediately
after use.
m Do not operate the dishwasher unless all enclosure panels
are properly in place.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
m Do not tamper with controls. m Do not abuse, sit on, or stand on the door, lid, or dish racks
of the dishwasher.
m To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to play in
or on the dishwasher.
m 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. If the hot water
system has not been used for such a period, before using the dishwasher 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 flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame during this time.
m Remove the door or lid to the washing compartment
when removing an old dishwasher from service or
discarding it.
Tip Over Hazard
Do not use dishwasher until completely installed. Do not push down on open door.
Doing so can result in serious injury or cuts.
Electrical Shock Hazard
Electrically ground dishwasher. Connect ground wire to green ground connector in
terminal box.
Do not use an extension cord. Failure to follow these instructions can result in death,
fire, or electrical shock.
GROUNDING iNSTRUCTiONS
For a grounded, cord-connected dishwasher:
The dishwasher 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. The dishwasher 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.
WARNING: Improper connection of the
equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or
service representative if you are in doubt whether the dishwasher is properly grounded. Do not modify the
plug provided with the dishwasher; if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician.
For a permanently connected dishwasher:
The dishwasher must be connected to a grounded 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.
SAVE THESE iNSTRUCTiONS
Install where dishwasher is sheltered from the elements. Avoid possible rupture of fill valve from freezing. Such
ruptures are not covered by the warranty. See "Storing" section for winter storage information.
Install and level dishwasher on a floor that will hold the weight, and in an area suitable for its size and use.
Remove all shipping plugs from hoses and connectors (such as the cap on the drain outlet) before installing. See Installation Instructions for complete information.

START-UPGUIDE
Before using your dishwasher, remove all packaging materials. Read this entire Use and Care Guide. You will find important safety information and useful operating tips.
g Hew
1.
Scrape large food soil and hard items (toothpicks or bones) from dishes.
2.
Properly load the dishwasher. (See "Dishwasher Loading.") Make sure nothing keeps the spray arm(s) from spinning freely.
3.
Add detergent and check the rinse aid dispenser. Add rinse aid if needed. (See "Dishwasher Use.")
DISHWASHERLOADING
Remove leftover food, bones, toothpicks and other hard items from the dishes. It is not necessary to rinse the dishes before putting them into the dishwasher. The wash module removes food particles from the water. The module contains a chopping device which will reduce the size of food items.
NOTE: If hard items such as fruit seeds, nuts, and eggshells enter the wash module, you might hear chopping, grinding, crunching, or buzzing sounds. These sounds are normal when hard items enter the module. To avoid damage to the dishwasher, do not let metallic items (such as pot handle screws) get into the wash module.
It is important for the water spray to reach all soiled surfaces.
Load dishes so they are not stacked or overlapping, if possible. For best drying, water must be able to drain from all
surfaces. Make sure pot lids and handles, pizza pans, cookie sheets,
etc., do not interfere with the spray arm rotation. Run a rinse cycle to keep dishes moist if you do not plan to
wash them soon. Foods such as eggs, rice, pasta, spinach, and cooked cereals may be hard to remove if they are left to dry over a period of time.
4.
Push door firmly closed. The door latches automatically. Run hot water at the sink nearest your dishwasher until the water is hot. (See "Dishwasher Efficiency Tips.") Turn off water.
5. Select the desired cycle. (See "Dishwasher Use.")
6. Select the desired option. (See "Option Selections.")
D%
7. Press the START/RESUME button.
Quiet operating tips
To avoid thumping/clattering noises during operation:
Make sure lightweight load items are secured in the racks.
Make sure pot lids and handles, pizza pans, cookie sheets, etc., do not touch interior walls or interfere with the rotation of
the spray arm.
Load dishes so they do not touch one another.
NOTE: For built-in models, keep sink drain plugs closed during dishwasher operation to avoid noise transfer through drains.
The top rack is designed for cups, glasses, and smaller items.
(See recommended loading patterns shown.) NOTE: The features on your dishwasher rack may vary from the
drawings shown.
qo : til} h
You can stop your dishwasher anytime during a cycle.
1. Open the door slightly.
2. Wait for the spraying action to stop. Then open the door all the way, if needed.
3. Close the door to continue the cycle.
4. Press the START/RESUME button.
6
Cup and glass load
Mixed load
Place items so open ends face down for cleaning and draining.
Load glasses in top rack only. The bottom rack is not designed for glasses. Damage can occur.
Place cups and glasses in the rows between tines. Placing them over the tines can lead to breakage.
China, crystal, and other delicate items must not touch each other during dishwasher operation. Damage may occur.
Load plastic items in the top rack only. Only plastic items marked "dishwasher safe" are recommended.
Load plastic items so the force of the spray does not move them during the cycle.
To avoid chipping, do not let stemware touch other items.
Small bowls, pans, and other utensils can be placed in the top rack. Load bowls in the center section for best stability.
Adjustable 3-position top rack
You can raise or lower the top rack to fit tall items in either the top or bottom rack. Two adjusters are located on each side of the top
rack. Each adjuster has 3 preset positions. The high and low positions are marked on the adjuster.
To adjust the top rack
1. Hold the top rack with one hand near the adjuster.
To move a clip
1. Pull the clip up and off the tine.
2. Reposition the clip on another tine.
The bottom rack is designed for plates, pans, casseroles, and
utensils. Items with cooked-on or dried-on food should be loaded with soiled surfaces facing inward to the spray. (See
recommended loading patterns shown.) NOTE: The features on your dishwasher rack may vary from the
drawings shown.
Mixed load
Do not load glasses, cups, or plastic items in the bottom rack. Load small items in the bottom rack only if they are secured in place.
Load plates, soup bowls, etc., between tines and facing inward to the spray.
Overlap the edges of plates for large loads.
Load soup, cereal, and serving bowls in the rack in a variety of ways depending upon their size and shape. Load bowls securely between the rows of tines. Do not nest bowls because the spray will not reach all surfaces.
2. With the other hand, pull out the top of the adjuster.
3. Raise or lower the rack to one of the preset positions.
4. Release the adjuster. Repeat the steps for the remaining adjusters as needed. The
4 adjusters can be raised or lowered separately or together. The top rack does not have to be level.
Light item clips
The light-item clips hold lightweight plastic items such as cups, lids, or bowls in place during washing. You can move a clip anywhere in the rack.
!
Utensil load
Load cookie sheets, cake pans, and other large items at the sides and back. Loading such items in front can keep the water spray from reaching the detergent dispenser and
silverware basket.
Secure heavily soiled cookware face down in the rack.
Make sure pot handles and other items do not stop rotation of the spray arm(s). The spray arm(s) must move freely.
Do not load items between the bottom rack and the side of the dishwasher tub. You can block the water inlet opening.
NOTE: If you have removed the bottom rack for unloading or cleaning, replace it with the bumpers in front.

Filling the dispenser
1. If the dispenser cover is closed, open the cover by pushing the cover latch.
2. Fill the Main Wash section with detergent. See "How much detergent to use."
3. Fill the Pre-Wash section if needed. (See "Cycle Selection Charts.")
4. Close the dispenser cover.
The cover will open during the cycle to dispense the detergent.
How much detergent to use
The amount of detergent to use depends on the hardness of your water and the type of detergent. If you use too little,
dishes won't be clean. If you use too much in soft water, glassware will etch.
Water hardness can change over a period of time. Find out your water's hardness by asking your local water department, water softener company, or county extension agent.
Where to fill
NOTES:
Do not load silver or silver-plated silverware with stainless steel. These metals can be damaged by contact with each other during washing.
Some foods (such as salt, vinegar, milk products, fruit juices, etc.) can pit or corrode silverware. Run a rinse cycle if you do not have a full load to wash immediately.
Unload or remove the basket before unloading the racks to avoid spilling water droplets onto the silverware.
DISHWASHERUSE
The detergent dispenser has 2 sections. The Pre-Wash section empties detergent into the dishwasher when you close the door.

A. Cover B. Main Washsection C. Coverlatch D. Pre-Washsection
The larger Main Wash section automatically empties detergent into the dishwasher during the main wash. (See "Cycle Selection Charts.")
Use automatic dishwashing detergent only. Other detergents can produce excessive suds that can overflow out of the dishwasher and reduce washing performance.
Add detergent just before starting a cycle.
Store tightly closed detergent in a cool, dry place. Fresh automatic dishwasher detergent results in better cleaning.
NOTE: Do not use detergent if you have selected a rinse cycle.

Rinse aids keep water from forming droplets that can dry as spots or streaks. They also improve drying by allowing water to drain off of the dishes during the final rinse by releasing a small
amount of the rinse aid into the rinse water. Your dishwasher is designed to use a liquid rinse aid. Do not use a solid or bar-type
rinse aid.
Checking the dispenser
Check the center of the fill indicator cap. Clear means it needs filling.
Or you can remove the fill indicator cap. If an "E" is visible, the dispenser is empty.
Filling the dispenser
The rinse aid dispenser holds 6 oz (175 mL) of rinse aid. Under normal conditions, this will last for about 3 months. You do not
have to wait until the dispenser is empty to refill it. Try to keep it full, but be sure not to overfill it.
1. Make sure the dishwasher door is completely open.
2. Remove the fill indicator cap.
3. Add rinse aid. Fill to the smallest opening in the lower part of the dispenser. Overfilling can cause the rinse aid to leak out, and could cause oversudsing.
2. Place a candy or meat thermometer in a glass measuring cup.
/
3.
Check the temperature on the thermometer as the water is running into the cup.
Additional efficiency tips
To save water and energy and time, do not rinse dishes before putting them into the dishwasher.
Use a low energy, quick, or short cycle whenever possible. These cycles use less hot water and energy than a normal cycle.
Use a delay feature (on some models) to run your dishwasher during oft-peak hours. Local utilities recommend avoiding heavy usage of energy at certain times of day.
During the summer, run your dishwasher at night. This reduces daytime heat buildup in the kitchen.
Use the energy-saving dry option whenever possible. Allow longer drying times (overnight) when using these options. Use a rinse aid to improve drying.
Use cycles or options that add extra heat to the wash or rinse portion of the cycle only when needed.
Run your dishwasher with full loads. Run a rinse cycle after meals until the dishwasher is full.
If your home is equipped with a water softener, you may want to avoid starting the dishwasher during the regeneration of
the softener, since this may contribute to poor wash performance.
4. Clean up any spilled rinse aid with a damp cloth.
5. Replace the fill indicator cap. Close tightly.
Hot water dissolves and activates the dishwashing detergent. Hot water also dissolves grease on dishes and helps glasses dry spot-free. For best dishwashing results, water should be 120°F (49°C) as it enters the dishwasher. Loads may not wash as well if the water temperature is too low. Water that is too hot can make some soils harder to remove and cause certain detergent ingredients not to function. If your water heater is located far from the dishwasher, it may be necessary to run the hot water at the
faucet closest to the dishwasher to minimize the amount of cold water in the water line.
To check water temperature
1. Run hot water at the faucet closest to your dishwasher for at least 1 minute.
E_"___ "'_'_'_"_ _'_"_' _' _"_eco_"_'s __°__'_"%_"_'g......
Select the wash cycle and options desired. Or press START/ RESUME to use the same cycle and options as in the previous cycle.
NOTE: If the last cycle you completed was a rinse cycle, the dishwasher will run the last full wash cycle and options that you selected when you press Start/Resume.
A "O" shows what steps are in each cycle. Temperatures indicate where extra heat is added. The control
pauses as the water heats. Water usage is shown in U.S. gallons/liters. Cycle time includes dry time. An asterisk ( * ) by the cycle time
indicates the cycle time might be longer depending on the temperature of the water entering the dishwasher. The cooler the water, the longer the cycle time. If the water is already hot enough, the cycle time will be as shown.
