. DO NOT tamper with controls.

If hot water has not been used recently (usually two weeks or longer), hydrogen gases may build up in the water heater and the hot water pipes. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. To prevent injury or damage, before using your dishwasher, turn on all hot water faucets and allow water to run for several minutes. This will allow gases to escape. Do not smoke or use any open flame near the faucet while it is open.

Disconnect electrical power to the dishwasher before attempting to service.

DO NOT store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance. The fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion.

Energy Saving Tips

You can help save energy if you:

1. Wash full loads. Running a half-filled dishwasher uses the same amount of electricity and hot water as a fully loaded machine.

2. If your model has the Light Wash Cycle, use it whenever possible. The cycle uses less hot water and energy than the Normal Wash Cycle.

3. Air dry dishes when you don’t need a rapid drying cycle. Allow longer drying times (overnight). Use a rinse agent to improve drying.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

4. Load correctly for best washing results. Incorrect loading may cause poor

washing and the need to rewash all or part of the load.

5. Do not pre-rinse normally soiled dishes.

Use the recommended amount of detergent for good washing results without hand rinsing.

6. Use your dishwasher during off-peak hours. Local utilities recommend this to avoid heavy usage of energy at certain

times of day.

7. Kitchen cleanup can be done quickly and

efficiently through the use of your dishwasher. Most appliance parts that can fit in the dishwasher can be cleaned by it. Burned-on soil, however, should be cleaned by hand.

To add a dish after starting (for models with more than one cycle)

1. To be sure the added item is washed and rinsed, make sure the Cycle Control Knob has not passed LIGHT WASH.

2. Lift up on the door latch to unlatch door and stop the cycle. Don’t open the door until the spray arm stops spinning.

3. Open the door and add the dish.

4. Close the door. Do not latch it. Wait 30 seconds for air in the dishwasher to warm up. This helps reduce the amount of moisture that can come from the vent when restarting the cycle.

5. Press the door to latch it. The dishwasher will start from where it stopped.

Changing a setting (for models with more than one cycle)

You can change a setting anytime during any cycle.

1. Lift up on the door latch to unlatch the door and stop the cycle.

2. Turn the Cycle Control Knob clockwise to the cycle you want.

Be sure the detergent dispensers are

filled properly for the new cycle. When changing the dial from LIGHT WASH to NORMAL WASH or POTS & PANS, detergent is released. Reload covered section of dispenser before starting Normal Wash or Pots & Pans Cycles (see page 6).

Press door firmly to latch it. The dishwasher will automatically start the new cycle.

Proper Loading

Preparation for loading It is not necessary to rinse dishes before

putting them into the dishwasher. Just remove large pieces and quantities of food and bones. The filtering system helps keep

food particles out of the wash water. Small

particles are flushed away as water is

pumped out. Larger particles are trapped on the filter screen system. Refer to “Dishwasher care and cleaning” on page 6 for filter screen cleaning instructions.

Always load dishes so soiled surfaces are

reached by spray from rotating spray arm. Water must be able to drain off completely for best drying results. Be careful to separate items so spray can reach all surfaces.

Top rack loading

The top rack is designed for cups, glasses and smaller items.

Cup and glass load

Place so open ends face down for cleaning and draining.

Load glasses in top rack only. Bottom rack is not designed for glasses. Damage may occur.

Mixed load

Load plastic items only in the top rack.

Only plastic items marked “Dishwasher

Safe” are recommended. Plastic items

can melt in the bottom rack.

Load plastic items so the force of the spray does not move them during the cycle.

Utensil load

Small bowls, pans and other utensils can be placed in the top rack.

Extra-capacity fold down shelf (on some models )

Extra shelves on the right and left side of the top rack can be folded down over short items (cups, juice glasses, cereal bowls, etc.) to hold extra items.

NOTE: To avoid chipping, do not let stemware touch other items.

Bottom rack loading

Items with cooked-on or dried-on food should be loaded in the bottom rack with soiled surfaces facing inward to the spray.

Mixed load

Make sure pot handles and other items do not stop rotation of spray arm. Spray arm must move freely.

Load items so they do not block or cover

the spray tower. Securely place heavily soiled cookware

face down in rack.

Dish load

Place plates, soup bowls, etc., between prongs and facing the spray.

9 Do not place items directly over spray

tower.

Utensil load 9 Load cookie sheets, cake pans and other

items at sides or back. Loading items in front may keep water spray from reaching detergent dispenser.

NOTE:

Do not load glasses, cups or plastic items in the bottom rack.

. When lower rack is removed, replace with

bumpers in front.

Place items in the rows between prongs, Placing them over the prongs can lead to

breakage.

Be sure lightweight items are held firmly

in place.

China, crystal and other delicate items must not touch each other during

dishwasher operation. Damage may

occur.
