important Safety instructions
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 BE ELECTRICALLY 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 young children and infants a safe distance away from the dishwasher when it is in operation.
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.
Store dishwasher detergent and rinse agents out of the reach of children.
Safety 3
Do not wash plastic items unless marked "dishwasher safe" or the equivalent. Check
with manufacturer for recommendations, if not marked. Items that are not dishwasher safe
may melt.
If the dishwasher drains into a food disposal, make sure disposal is completely empty before running dishwasher.
Disconnect electrical power to dishwasher before servicing.
Repairs should be done by a qualified Electrolux professional.
Do not tamper with controls.
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.
When loading and unloading items:
Locate sharp items and knives so that they are not likely to damage the tub or
door seal
Load sharp items and knives with the handles up to reduce the risk of cut-type
injuries. Alternatively, place sharp items and knives in the utensil shelf located in
thee pp er rack.
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 ISEXPLOSIVE. 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.

ENERGY OPTION SELECTIONS
Hi-Temp Wash
When HI-TEMP option is selected, the dishwasher heats water in the main wash to approximately
140°F (60°C). HI-TEMP ON will be displayed. This increase in water temperature helps
dishwasher detergent remove food, grease and soil from dishes more effectively and aids in drying.
HI-TEMP option can only be used with AUTO,
HEAVY and NORMAL cycles. When HI-TEMP option is selected, the icon will light
up and remain on until the door is closed.
Sanitize
To sanitize your dishes and glassware, select the SANITIZE option. SANITIZE ON will be displayed when selected, the light surrounding the icon will turn red until the START key is pressed or the door is closed. This option heats the water temperature in the final rinse to 157°F (69.4°C) and maintains that temperature for 7 minutes. SANITIZE is available in Auto, Heavy, and Normal cycles. Only these sanitization cycles have been designed to meet NSF requirements.
The cycle time will be extended until the proper water temperature is reached. Washing action will
continue during the water heating delay. For best results, the incoming water temperature should be at least 120°F (49°C).
If the SANITIZE option is selected, SANITIZED will be displayed at the end of the cycle. The sanitization criteria may not be satisfied if there is an interruption of the cycle, a power failure occurs, or if the incoming water temperature is below 120°F (49°C). Sanitize will not display at the end of the cycle if the NSF requirements for sanitization are not
reached.

Dishwasher Dispenser & Detergents
RLUNG THE DETERGENT
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 automaticdishwashing
detergent tabs, place one tab in main wash
cup and close.
Add detergent just before starting cycle.
Store detergent in a cool, dry location.
Moist or caked detergent will not dissolve
properly.
HOW MUCH DETERGENT TO
USE
The amount of detergent to use depends on the water hardness. Water hardness is measured in
grains pergallon (gpg). "Hard water" contains large
amounts of harsh minerals in granulated form, above 10-11 grains per gallon (gpg), which can
affect water quality. 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.

Other suggestions:
Try adding more detergent at the beginning of the main wash portion of the cycle.
As a rule, use 1 teaspoon for each grain above 12. Unlatch the door, open slowly and add detergent to the bottom of the tub.
Close the door to latch and the dishwasher will continue through the cycle.
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. If spotting 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.
To add liquid rinse aid:
1 Turn dispenser cap 1/4 turn counterclockwise
and lift out.
2 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.
If the rinse aid is low, LOW RINSE displays at the beginning and end of the cycle on the EIDW6305 model. Ifthe rinse aid is low, the LOW RINSE LED is illuminated at the beginning and end of the cycle on the EIDW6105 model indicating that it is time to
refill.

WATERTEMPERATURE WATERPRESSURE iiiiiii:::
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 Iftemperature 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.
iiiiiiiiiiiiiiii
Occasionally wipe the outside surfaces of your dishwasher with a mild nonabrasive detergent and water. Rinse and dry.
Stainless Steel Door
Clean the stainless steel door and handle with hot, soapy water and a dishcloth. Rinse with clean
water and a cloth. Do not use harsh scrubbing cleaners. Use only kitchen cleaners made especially for cleaning stainless steel.
Remove spots on the door and tub with a damp,
nonabrasive cloth.
Care of Glass Trap Filter
Your dishwasher is equipped with a state of the art wash system. Periodically, the Glass Trap Filter and Large Food Particle Trap may need to be cleaned to maximize wash performance.
The Glass Trap Filter is located in the center of the Large Food Particle Trap. The Glass Trap Filter is designed to collect pieces of broken glass, straws, bones and pits. To remove items in the Glass Trap Filter, grasp the handle, lift out, empty and replace.
ap
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.
A dishwasher left in an unheated place should be protected from freezing. Have a qualified person do the following:
