Introduction

Congratulations on your new Equator dishwasher. In addition to its award winning design, this is a highly sophisticated engineered product that will give you many years of satisfaction. Please spend a few moments to read te Owners Manual. This will show you ways to best utilize your valuable purchase.

Here are 10 of the best reasons for buying your dishwasher

1. Energy, Water, Sewage and Detergent Savings.

Your dishwasher uses only about 5 gallons of water in a Normal load (compared with 11-14 gallons in regular dishwashers). The water saving also results in energy savings since there is less water to be heated. Less water requires less detergent to be used, and also results in a reduced sewage bill.

2. Water Heating to 162 F (72 C).

The water is heated to 162 F in the Pots and Pans wash. Hotter water breaks down the detergent better and provide for a better wash. At this temperature, the dishes are sterilized.

3. Upper Flexible Rack

The upper rack can be raised or lowered with a simple pull of the rack. This is a unique patent pending innovation that makes using full size plates in both upper and lower racks easy to do.

4. 1/2 Load Wash

With the press of a button, only the top rack can be used if requir ed. The dishwasher can be run without waiting to be filled, and cuts down the use of a water that is used. When the upper rack is lowered, full size dinner plates can be washed. The silverware basket is designed to also fit in the top rack. This feature is ideal for small families that want to do their dishwashing in smaller loads.

5. Concealed Water Heater

The water heater has been concealed below the tub. This is especially useful when plastic items fall from the rack onto the tub floor. There is no risk of any burnt items from the heating element.

6. Internal leak detection

Your dishwasher is equipped with a mechanism that detects the slightest water leak within thre drum, which automatically cuts off the water supply.

7. Extra quiet

Your dishwasher is extremely quiet and the noise level and the quietness has been measur ed at 38 dBA for acoustic pressure and 50 dBA for acoustic energy. This is due to the single piece molded door, fiberglass insulation and an additional rubber based inner lining on 5 sides of the dishwasher (excluding the bottom). In fact, you may need to put your ear to the dishwasher to hear it running! It is ideal for operating at night.

8. Six Wash optios

There are 6 wash options to cover all the requirrements. These include Rinse & Hold, Pots and Pans, Normal, Economy, China/Crysta and Fast Wash (about 20 minutes)

9. 3 level wash

In addition to the upper and lower spray arm, water is sprayed from a multi-directional sprinkler located at the top of the dishwasher. The 3 level wash system sprays water in 5 directions and provides for greater wash efficiency.

10. Rack features

The lower basket offers collapsible plate tines on the left side. This is ideal for washing pots and pans. All movable parts are marked in gray color. The upper rack features movable supports and a knife holder. There is also a 4-position holder to support glasses of different sizes as well as bowls. There is also a convenient knife holder which offers safety in placing knives for washing.

Important Safety Instructions

WARNING- When using your dishwasher, follow these basic safety precautions to reduce risk of fire,

electric shock and/or injury to person(s), including the following:

• Read all instructions before using the dishwasher.

• Use the dishwasher only for its intended function.

• Use only detergent or wetting agents recommended for use in a dishwasher and keep them out of reach of children.

• When loading items to be washed:

• Locate sharp items so that they are not likely to damage the door seal; and

• Load sharp knives with the handles up to reduce the risk of cut-type injuries.

• 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.

• Do not touch the heating element during or immediately after use.

• Do not operate your dishwasher unless all enclosure panels are properly in place.

• Do not tamper with controls.

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

• To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to play in or on a dishwasher.

• 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 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.

• Remove the door to the washing compartment when removing an old dishwasher from service or discarding it.
