E n e r g y U s e
The yellow energy guide label that came on your
unit tells how much energy it would use in one year
and how it compares to others that are available.
The energy is based on the Normal cycles
response to tests that apply soils and dishware that
simulate the average use. Eight place settings of
dishware and some serving pieces are used during
the test. The total energy is based on running
the average number of cycles per year, applying
typical soil levels to the dishware and half the time,
selecting the option of using extra energy to more
fully dry the dishware. Actual energy and water use
will depend upon the cycle and options you select.
This unit uses an in-line water heating element
that is located under the tub. There is no exposed
heater that plasticware might come in contact
with or that is accessible to touch. The heat is
taken to the dishware through the heated water.
For this reason, plastic dishware may be placed
where it best fi ts in either the top or bottom
rack. Temperatures are uniform throughout the
dishwasher.
If the user prefers to save energy and dry the
dishes by hand they select air dry instead of
heated dry. Air dry is still an option. If you prefer to
spend slightly more energy to get the dishes drier
then turn the air dry option off. In response the
wash and rinse temperatures in the cycle will be
increased.
This will help the cleaning and it will also get the
dishwasher hotter. When the fi nal drain removes
all standing water, the extra heat stored in the
dishware will act to evaporate the remaining water.
Your unit provides a selection of cycles. In general,
the more water used by a cycle and the hotter the
temperatures it reaches the more energy that it
uses. Several cycles, such as the Normal cycle will
change their response based on soil level, options
selected, and ambient conditions. The Normal
cycle is good for all around use. Other cycles are
focused toward special use like the Heavy cycle
that is designed for heavily solid cookware.
N o
r m a l O p e r a t i n g S o u n d s
Your dishwasher uses energy effi cient motors
for the wash and dr
select. Each cycle has a series of water fi lls 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 of 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.

N o r m a l O p e r a t i n g L i g h t s
Your dishwasher pad lights when either the Cycle
or Option desired is selected. All cycle and option
pads have a white back light when the pads are
deselected and turn blue when selected. In Delay

pads are turned off.
NOTE
Your unit has DishSenseTM
is used to understand how heavily soiled the
dish load is so the cycle can be automatically
adjusted to the appropriate response. This
helps to prevent energy waste. The sensor is
calibrated at the end of the cycle. For the fi rst
cycle after power is applied (when fi rst installed
or after a power failure) the sensor will not be
calibrated and so cannot determine the soil
load. Therefore, your unit will provide a response
suitable for heavy soils on the fi rst run after power
is restored. This will assure that whatever is
loaded will be cleaned. Energy use during this
fi rst run may be higher than would be typical.

Solutions to Common Problems
Glassware/Flatware Spotted or Cloud
• Check water hardness. For extremely hard
water, it may be necessary to install a water
softener. (See Detergent Chart).
• Water temperature may be low. Avoid
extremely low or high temperatures. (See
Factors Affecting Performance.
• Avoid overloading and improper loading. (See
Preparing and Loading Dishes).
• Use fresh detergent. Old detergent is
ineffective.
• Make sure rinse aid dispenser is fi lled.
• Check to see that proper amount of detergent
is being used for cycle selected. Also, check
phosphate level. (See Detergent Dispenser.)
• Home water pressure may be too low - it
should be 20 to 120 pounds per square inch
(psi).
Dishware Chipped
• Load with care and do not overload. (See
Preparing and Loading Dishes).
• 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.
Water in Bottom of Tub
• Water left in the tub bottom after the cycle is
complete is not normal. If water remains in the
bottom of the tub, the dishwasher may not be
draining properly. (See Dishwasher Does not
Drain Properly).
Dishware Stained or Discolored
• 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 (1L) of warm
water. Rinse thoroughly.
• Iron deposits in water can cause a yellow or
brown fi lm. A special fi lter installed in the
water supply line will correct this problem. (See
Removing Spots and Film).
y
• 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 Only cycle or
rinse by hand if not operating dishwasher at
once.
• Mixing stainless steel and silver utensils in
silverware basket can cause pitting of the
stainless steel blades. Avoid mixing stainless
steel and silver.
Cycle Takes a Long Time
• Is cycle in a water heating delay?
• Has the delay start option been selected?
• Has the sanitize option been selected?
Normal Sounds You Will Hear
• Normal sounds include water fi ll, water
circulation and motor sounds.
Dishwasher Leaks
• Use only fresh detergent designed for
automatic dishwashers. Measure detergent
carefully. Try a different brand.
Etching
• Using too much detergent especially in soft or
softened water causes damage that looks like
a fi lm but cannot be removed.
• Adjust the amount of detergent based on the
water hardness. (Check Detergent Chart).
• Lower the water temperature.
Detergent Left in Dispenser Cup
• Detergent may be old. Discard and use fresh
detergent.
• Be sure the dish load doesn’t block spray from
entering the detergent cup.
• Check to see if cycle has been completed.
• Make sure items do not prevent the detergent
dispenser from opening.

Vapor at Vent
• W
ater vapor escapes from the vent during the
drying part of cycle. This is normal.
• Spilled rinse aid can cause foam and lead to
overfl owing. Wipe up any spills with a damp
cloth.
• Check to see that dishwasher is level. (See
Installation Instructions).
Dishwasher Won’t Run or Fill (error code i10)
• Check to see if circuit breaker is tripped or if a
fuse is blown.
• Check to see if the water supply is turned on
and the pressure of the water supply is not too
low. (Contact your local water company).
• Check to see if the water tap is open and is not
clogged.
• Check to see if cycle is set correctly. (See
Operating Instructions).
• Check to see if the dishwasher is not set for
Delay Start.
• Check and insure the door is closed and
latched.
• Check to see if the fi lter in the inlet hose is not
clogged and is free of kinks and bends.
Dishwasher Does Not Drain Properly (error

Dishwasher has an Odor
• Soiled dishes left in dishwasher too long can
create an odor. Use Rinse cycle.
• There will be a “new” smell when fi rst installed.
This is normal.
• Check to see if unit is draining properly. (See
Dishwasher Does Not Drain Properly).
Stains on Tub Interior
• Washing large amounts of dishware with
tomato based soil can cause a pink/orange
appearance. This will not affect performance
and will gradually fade over time. Pre-rinsing
or using the Rinse cycle will reduce the
chance of staining. Using no heat dry option
will lessen staining.
Removing Spots and Film
Hard water can cause lime deposit buildup on the
interior of the dishwasher
may also get spots and fi lm for a number of
reasons. (See Glassware/Flatware Spotted or
Cloudy section). To remove buildup, and fi lm,
clean using the following instructions:
1. Load clean dishes and glasses in normal
manner. Do not load any metal utensils or
silverware.
2. Do not add detergent.
3. Select the NORMAL WASH cycle. Press
START pad. Close and latch the door.
4. Allow dishwasher to run until it starts the
second water fi ll (approximately 10 minutes).
5. Unlatch an and open door and pour 2 cups of
white vinegar into the bottom of dishwasher.
6. Close and latch door and allow cycle to fi nish.
