To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or injury to persons when using this dishwasher,
comply with the warnings listed below. Failure to comply with these Important Safety
Information and warnings could result in property damage, serious personal injury, or death.
For your safety
• 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.
• NSF certified residential dishwashers
are not intended for licensed food
establishments.
• DISHWASHER MUST BE
ELECTRICALLY GROUNDED. This
appliance must be connected to
a ground 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 this appliance. Read the Installation
Instructions for details.
• This dishwasher is designed to operate
on regular house current (120V, 60Hz).
Use a circuit equipped with a 15 ampere
fuse or circuit breaker. Use a 20 ampere
fuse if dishwasher is connected with a
food disposer.
• Do not operate dishwasher unless all
enclosure panels are in their proper
place.
• Use only detergents and rinse agents
recommended for use in a dishwasher.
• Store dishwasher detergent and rinse
agents out of the reach of children.
• If the dishwasher drains into a food

completely empty before running
dishwasher.
• Do not wash plastic items unless
marked: “Dishwasher Safe” or
equivalent. Check with manufacturer
for recommendations, if not marked.
Items that are not marked dishwasher
safe may melt and create a potential fire
hazard.
• When loading items to be washed:
– Locate sharp items and knives so that
they are not likely to damage the door
seal or tub.
– Load sharp items and knives with the
handles up to reduce the risk of cuttype injuries.
• Do not tamper with controls.

Important Safety Information
• Use care unloading the dishware when
the SANITIZE option has been selected.
Contents may be hot to the touch
immediately after the end of cycle.
• Under certain conditions, hydrogen
gas may be produced in a hot water
system that has not been used for
2 weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS
IS EXPLOSIVE. If hot water system
has not been used for such a period,
before using dishwasher, turn on all
hot water faucets and let water flow
from each for several minutes. This will
release any accumulated hydrogen gas.
HYDROGEN GAS IS FLAMMABLE. Do
not smoke or use an open flame during
this time.
• Do not store or use combustible
materials, gasoline or other flammable
vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this
or any other appliance.
• Disconnect electrical power to
dishwasher before servicing.
• Repairs should be done by a qualified
technician.
Child safety
• This appliance is not intended for use by
persons (including children) with reduced
physical, sensory or mental capabilities,
or lack of experience and knowledge,
unless they have been given supervision
or instruction concerning use of the
appliance by a person responsible for
their safety.
• Close supervision of children is necessary
when the appliance is used near children.
As children grow, teach them the proper,
safe use of all appliances.
• DO NOT allow children to play in or on
the dishwasher
• DO NOT allow children to abuse, sit,
stand or play on door or racks of a
dishwasher.
• Destroy the carton, plastic bag and other
packing materials after the appliance
is unpacked. Children might use them
for play. Cartons covered with rugs,
bedspreads or plastic sheets can
become airtight chambers.
• Keep dishwasher products out of
children’s reach. To prevent personal
injury, observe all warnings on product
labels.
• To avoid entrapment and/or suffocation,
remove door or door latch mechanism
from any dishwasher that is discarded or
not in use.
• Failure to comply with these warnings
could result in serious personal injuries.
Risk of child entrapment
Child entrapment and suffocation are
not problems of the past. Junked or
abandoned appliances are still dangerous
– even if they will sit for “just a few days”.
If you are getting rid of your old appliance,
please follow the instructions below to help
prevent accidents.
We strongly encourage responsible
appliance recycling/disposal methods.
Contact your State/Provence Energy
Office, Local Electric and Water Utilities or
Conservation Program Office or visit www.
energystar.gov/recycle for more information
on recycling your old washer or dryer.
Before you throw away your old
appliance:
• Remove doors or door latch.
• Remove the electric power cord
• Secure all hoses and drain pipes to
prevent water from leaking out and
creating a slip hazard.
WARNING
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock or
injury when using your dishwasher, follow all
the preceding precautions.
Features
Cup Shelf
Your dishwasher cleans by spraying a mixture of hot water and detergent through the
spray arms against soiled surfaces. First, the dishwasher drains for a few seconds to
remove soils dropped while loading, then fills with water covering the filter area. Water is
then pumped through the spray arms. Soil particles go through and across the filter and
down the drain as the water is pumped out. This series of steps are repeated as needed.
The number of water fills varies with the cycle being used.

Smart wash system
This dishwasher has a Smart Wash
System. It can determine the type of cycle
required and automatically adjust the cycle
to clean the dishes more efficiently. When a
partial load of lightly soiled dishes is placed
in the unit, a wash cycle similar to a short
wash will automatically be performed.
When a full load of heavily soiled dishes is
placed in the unit, a heavy wash cycle will
automatically be performed.
Features may
vary according to
model
Multiple filter system
This dishwasher has a multiple Filter
System. In the System there are three
mesh filters. It can separate soiled water
and clean water in different chambers.
The multiple filter system helps to get
better performance with less water and
less energy.
