Safety

• Store dishwasher detergent and rinse agents out of the reach of children.

WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or serious injury when using your dishwasher, follow

basic precautions including the following:

Please read all safety instructions before using your new Electrolux dishwasher.

Read all instructions before using your dishwasher.

Use your dishwasher only as instructed in this Use and Care Manual.

This manual does not cover every possible • condition and situation that may occur. Use

common sense and caution when installing, • operating and maintaining any appliance.

National Sanitation Foundation (NSF)certified residential dishwashers are not intended for

licensed food establishments. Such establishments require a higher dishwasher

water temperature to meet commercial sanitization requirements.

DISHWASHER MUST BEELECTRICALLY GROUNDED. Read the Installation Instructions for details.

This dishwasher is designed to operate on regular house current (120 V.60 Hz). Use a circuit equipped with a 15 ampere fuse or circuit breaker. Use a 20 ampere fuse or

circuit breaker if dishwasher is connected with a food waste disposer.

Do not operate dishwasher unless all enclosure panels are in their proper place as explained in the Installation Instructions provided with your dishwasher.

Toavoid entrapment and/or suffocation. remove the door to the washing compartment

when removing an old dishwasher from service or discarding it,

Keep children away from the front of the dishwasher so that they are not accidentally hit by the door during loading and unloading or if door should unexpectedly open. The weight of the door can cause injury.

Use only detergents and rinse agents recommended for use in a dishwasher.

Do not abuse, sit on, or stand on the door or dish rack of the dishwasher.

Do not wash plastic items unless marked

"dishwasher safe" or the ec_uivalent. Check with manufacturer for recommendations, if not

marked. Items that are not dishwasher safe may melt.

Tostart, press START/CANCEL touchpad and close door. (SeeStart/Cancel, page 8.)

Your dishwasher uses energy efficient motors for the wash and drain portions of the cycle you select. Each cycle has a series of water fills and drains for

washing and rinsing dishes. As each cycle begins, you may or may not hear the drain motor. You may also hear the splashing water as it enters the tub and the spray arms as they rotate and circulate

water. The wash motor often pulsates throughout the cycle, which varies water pressure and

optimizes performance.

Preparing & Loading Dishes

i i

D SH PREPA TmON

Scrape away large pieces of food, bone, pits, toothpicks, etc. The wash system will remove

remaining food particles. Gently scrape away burned-on food with a non-scratch utensil or let

dish soak before washing (see Figure 1). Empty liquids from glasses and cups.

Foods containing vegetable oil and/or chemical additives such as mustard, mayonnaise, vinegar,

lemon juice or tomato-based products may cause discoloration of stainless steel and plastics if

allowed to sit for a long period of time. Unless the dishwasher is to be operated at once, it is best to

rinse off these food soils.

• Load racks so that large items do not prevent the detergent dispenser from

opening.

• Check manufacturer's recommendations

before washing items in question.

• If the dishwasher drains into a food disposal,

be sure disposal is completely empty

before starting dishwasher.

Load glasses in top rack. Damage may occur

if placed in bottom rack unless Stemware

Cycle is selected.

Damage may occur if delicate items touch

each other during dishwasher operation.

Long-handled knives and utensils can be

placed in the top rack's versa tray.

Be sure nothing protrudes through the bottom

of the rack to block rotation of middle spray

arm.

• Load items with open ends facing down for better cleaning and draining.

10 Preparing & Loading Dishes

Features in your dishwasher's model may

vary in appearance from illustrations in this

manual.

LOADING THE BOSOM RACK

Our adjust rack space allows you to put items up to 15" in the bottom rack.

The bottom rack is designed for plates, saucers.

bowls, and cookware.

•Large items should be placed along the edge so they do not block the middle

spray arm rotation.

•For best results, place bowls.

casseroles.and sauce pans with

soiled surface facing down or

toward the center. Tilt slightly for better

drainage.

•Make sure tall items do not block middle

spray arm rotation.

•Be sure pan handles do not

protrude through the bottom of the rack

and block the lower spray arm rotation.

Fold-down Tines

The fold-down tines in the lower rack make easy loading for those extra large and hard-to-fit items. The tines may be left up for normal use or folded down for more flexible loading.

Fold tines down for ease in loading large pots or pans.

ADJUSTING HEIGHT

The top rack height can be easily adjusted to accommodate loading taller dishes in either rack.

Height should be adjusted without dishes in the racks.

10 place settings standard loading pattern

14 place settings standard loading pattern

Toaccommodate taller dishes in the bottom rack, there are 3 positions available:

To raise the rack to the middle or upper position, simply lift the rack. The lever is spring loaded to engage the middle or upper position. To lower the rack to the middle or lower position, push lever with thumbs and push downward simutaneously. Releasing the lever will allow the middle position to be engaged. Toensure ease of adjustment when adjusting the rack, ensure that the rack

remains level from front to back with both sides at the same height.

Preparing & Loading Dishes

LOADMNGTHE SILVERWARE

Load the silverware basket while it is inthe bottom rack or take the basket out for loading on a counter

or table.

• Place small items like baby bottle caps, jar lids, corn cob holders, etc., in a

covered section. Close the cover to hold

small items in place.

• Be sure nothing protrudes through bottom

of basket or rack to block the lower spray

arm.

• Do not mix silver and stainless items to

avoid damaging the silver finish.

CAUTION

TO AVOID CUT INJURY: Load sharp items (knives, skewers, etc.) pointing down.

Failure to do so may result in injury.

When covers are up, mix non-sharp items in each section of the basket with some pointing up and some down to avoid nesting. Water spray cannot

reach nested items.

Knife Basket

The knife basket can be used for large knives.

Versa Tray

The versa tray can be used in the upper rack to hold spatulas, large spoons and other large

utensils.

ADDmNG A DMSH

RLLING THE DETERGENT D SPENSER USE

The detergent dispenser has one main wash and one pre-wash cup. The covered cups open automatically to release detergent.

Use only automatic dishwashing detergent.

Other detergents will cause oversudsing.

When using automatic dishwashing detergent tabs, place one tab in main wash

cups and close.

Add detergent just before starting cycle. Store detergent in a cool, dry location.

Moist or caked detergent will not dissolve

properly.

The amount of detergent to use depends on the water hardness. Water hardness is measured in

grains pergallon (gpg). "Hard water" contains large

amounts, 9-12 grains per gallon (GPG), of minerals. Harder water will require more detergent and may also result in deposits on dishware and unit internal

surfaces.

Using too little detergent can result in poor cleaning and hard water filming or spotting. Using too much detergent in soft water can cause a permanent film called "etching." (See Etching, page 19.)

Your local water company, water softener company or county extension agent can tell you the water hardness in your area.

RINSE AmD

Rinse aid greatly improves drying and reduces waterspots and filming. It causes the water to

"sheet" off of dishes rather than form water droplets that cling and leave spots.

The rinse aid dispenser, located next to the detergent cup, automatically releases a measured amount of rinse aid during the last rinse. Ifspotting and poor drying are problems, increase the amount of rinse aid dispensed by rotating the dial to a higher number. The dial is located under the dispenser cap.

If the rinse aid is low, LOW RINSE displays at the beginning and end of the cycle, indicating tha it is

time to refill.

To add liquid rinse aid:

1 Turn dispenser cap 1/4 turn counterclockwise

and lift out.

Pour in rinse aid until liquid reaches the flat surface marked MAX in the Rinse Aid

dispenser. Do not overfill since this can cause oversudsing.

3 Replace cap. 4

Wipe up any spills with a damp cloth.

The dispenser holds enough for 35 to 140 washes, depending on setting.

Factors Affecting Performance

WATER PRESSURE

Hot water is needed for best dishwashing and drying results. Water entering the dishwasher should be at least 120°F (49°C) to give satisfactory results.

To check water temperature entering the dishwasher:

1 Turn on hot water faucet nearest dishwasher

for several minutes to clear cool water from pipes.

2 Hold a candy or meat thermometer in stream

of water to check the temperature.

3 If temperature is below 120°F (49°C), have a

qualified person raise the water heater thermostat setting.

The hot water line to the dishwasher must provide water pressure between 20 and 90 pounds per square inch (psi).

Low water pressure may occur when laundry or showers are in operation. Wait until water use is reduced before starting dishwasher.

Remove spots on the door, rack handle and tub with adamp, nonabrasive cloth.

Care of Drain Air Gap

Care & Cleaning

If a drain air gap was installed for your built-in dishwasher, check to make sure it is clean so the

dishwasher will drain properly. A drain air gap is usually mounted on the sink at the countertop and can be inspected by removing the cover. This is not part of your dishwasher and is not covered by warranty.

Freezing temperatures may cause water lines to rupture, Be sure all supply lines

to and circulating lines within dishwasher

result in property damage.

A dishwasher left in an unheated place should be protected from freezing. Have a qualified Derson do the following:

To Disconnect Service:

Turn off electrical power to the dishwasher at the supply source by removing fuses or tripping circuit breaker.

Shut off water supply.

Place a Danunder the inlet valve. Disconnect water line from inlet valve and drain into pan.

4 Disconnect drain line and drain water into

pan.

To Restore Service:

1 Reconnect the water, drain, and electrical

power supply.

2 Turn on water and electrical Dower supply. 3 Fi both detergent cups and run dishwasher

through a COOKWARE cycle.

See Installation Instructions for more details.

Solutions to Common Problems

D SHES NOT DRY

Before calling for service, review this list. It may save you both time and expense. This list includes common experiences that are

not the result of defective workmanship or material in your dishwasher.

FOOD SOMLSLEFT ON

D SHES

Check incoming water temperature. (See Getting Started. page 5.) It should be at least

120°F (49°C). (See Factors Affecting

Performance, page 15.) Choose another cycle for longer washing

time. Check rack loading section for proper

loading avoid nesting items. Home water pressure may be too low

should be 20 to 90 pounds per square inch (psi).

Check water hardness. For extremely hard water, it may be necessary to install a water

softener. (See Detergent Usage Guide. Dage

13.)

Use fresh detergent. Make sure items are not blocking any of the

spray arms, preventing them from rotating.

• Make sure the rinse aid dispenser is filled.

• Increase the amount of rinse aid (See Rinse Aid, page 14).

• Checkthe incoming water temperature. Be sure it is at least 120°F (49°C).

• Check for proper loading--avoid nesting items.

Plastic items may need to be towel dried. Less water evaporates from plastic items

when cycle is complete because they do not retain as much heat as glass or metal items.

Cups with a concave bottom will collect water.

DUSHWARECH PPED

Load with care and do not overload. (See Preparing and Loading Dishes, pages 9-11 .)

Place delicate items in top rack. Place glasses securely against pins and not

over pins. Load items so they are secure and don't jar

loose when moving racks in and out. Move racks in and out slowly.

Make sure tall glasses and stemware will clear top of tub when rack is pushed in.

It is recommeded to wash fine antique china and crystal by hand.

D SP Y NOT MNOPERATMNG

• Hold down SANITIZE touchpad for 8seconds to reset unit to Normal Operating Mode.

Solutions to Common Problems

13.)

Water temperature may be low. Avoid extremely low or high temperatures. (See Factors Affecting Performance, page 15.)

Avoid overloading and improper loading. (See Preparing and Loading Dishes, pages 9-11 .)

Use fresh detergent. Old detergent is ineffective.

Make sure rinse aid dispenser is filled. Check to see that proper amount of detergent

is being used for cycle selected. (See Detergent Dispenser, pages 12-14.)

Home water pressure may be too low--it should be 20 to 90 pounds per square inch (psi).

D_SNWARE STAmNEDOR

Tea and coffee can stain cups. Remove the stains by hand washing in a solution of 1/2 cup (120 ml) bleach and one quart (1 L)of warm water. Rinse thoroughly.

Iron deposits in water can cause a yellow or brown film. A water filter installed in-line with

your water supply will correct this problem. Aluminum utensils can leave gray/black

marks when they rub against other items. Load properly.

Certain high acid foods can cause discoloration of stainless steel and plastics if allowed to sit for a long period. Use the Rinse cycle or rinse by hand if not operating

dishwasher at once. Mixing stainless steel and silver utensils in

silverware basket can cause pitting on the stainless steel utensils. Avoid mixing

stainless steel and silver.
