Your safety and the safety of others are very important.

We have provided many important safety messages in this Quick Reference Guide and on your appliance. Always read and obey
all safety messages.

This is the safety alert symbol.
This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.

All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word "DANGER" or "WARNING."

These words mean:

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't immediately
follow instructions.

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't follow

instructions.

All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can
happen if the instructions are not followed.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: When using the dishwasher, follow basic precautions, including the following:

[] Read all instructions before using the dishwasher. [] Do not tamper with controls.
[] Use the dishwasher only for its intended function.
[] Use only detergents or rinse agents recommended for use in

a dishwasher, and keep them out of the reach of children.

[] When loading items to be washed:

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

2) 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 the dishwasher unless all enclosure panels

are properly in place.

[] Do not abuse, sit on, or stand on the door, lid, or dish racks

of the dishwasher.

[] To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to play in

or on the 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 from each 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 or lid to the washing compartment

when removing an old dishwasher from service or
discarding it.

GROUNDING iNSTRUCTiONS

For a grounded, cord-connected dishwasher:

The dishwasher must be grounded. In the event of a
malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of
electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for
electric current. The dishwasher is equipped with a cord
having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding

plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet

that is installed and grounded in accordance with all local
codes and ordinances.

WARNING: Improper connection of the equipment-

grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock.

SAVE THESE iNSTRUCTiONS

Do not use dishwasher until completely installed.
Do not push down on open door.
Doing so can result in serious injury or cuts.

Check with a qualified electrician or service representative

if you are in doubt whether the dishwasher is properly
grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the
dishwasher; if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet

installed by a qualified electrician.

For a permanently connected dishwasher:
The dishwasher must be connected to a grounded 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
the dishwasher.

Make sure nothing keeps spray arm from
spinning freely. It is important for the water
spray to reach all soiled surfaces.

• Make sure that when the dishwasher door is closed no items
are blocking the detergent dispenser.

• Items should be loaded with soiled surfaces facing down and
inward to the spray as shown. This will improve cleaning and
drying results.

• Avoid overlapping items like bowls or plates that may trap food.

• Place plastics, small plates and glasses in the upper rack.
Wash only plastic items marked "dishwasher safe."

To avoid thumping/clattering noises during operation, load

dishes so they do not touch one another. Make sure lightweight
load items are secured in the racks.

When loading silverware, always place sharp
items pointing down and avoid "nesting" as

shown.

STEP 2

Add Detergent

NOTE: If you do not plan to run a wash cycle soon, run a rinse

cycle. Do not use detergent.

• Use automatic dishwashing detergent only. Add powder, liquid
or tablet detergent just before starting a cycle.

• Fresh automatic dishwasher detergent results in better
cleaning. Store tightly closed detergent container in a cool, dry

place.

A B C D

A. Cover
B. Main Wash section

• The amount of detergent to use depends on:
How much soil remains on the items - Heavily soiled loads

require more detergent.

The hardness of the water - If you use too little in hard water,

dishes won't be clean. If you use too much in soft water,
glassware will etch.

Soft to Medium Water (0-6 grains per U.S. gallon)
[typical water softener water and some city water]

Medium to Hard Water (7-12 grains per U.S. gallon)
[well water and some city water]

• Depending on your water hardness, fill the Main Wash section
of the dispenser as shown. Fill the Pre-Wash section to the

level shown, if needed.

NOTE: Fill amounts shown are for standard powdered detergent.
Follow instructions on the package when using other dishwasher

detergent.

Add Rinse Aid

• Your dishwasher is designed to use rinse aid for good drying
performance. Without rinse aid your dishes and dishwasher
interior will have excessive moisture. The heat dry option will
not perform as well without rinse aid.

• Rinse aid keeps water from forming droplets that can dry as
spots or streaks. They also improve drying by allowing water to
drain off of the dishes during the final rinse.

• Rinse aid helps to reduce excess moisture on the dish racks
and interior of your dishwasher.

• Check the center of the fill
indicator cap. Clear means

it needs filling. _ oR

Select a Cycle (cycles vary by model)

Normal - Use for normal food soil.

The energy usage label is based on

this cycle.
Rinse Only - (no options apply to

this cycle) Do not use detergent. A
rinse keeps food from drying on your dishes and reduces odor

buildup in your dishwasher until you are ready to wash a full load.
Plate Warmer- Use to warm serving dishes or dinner plates.

• A high temperature option boosts the water temperature high
enough to enhance cleaning.

• A delayed start option offers the choice to start the dishwasher
automatically at a later time.

• A heated dry option should be used for best drying of dishes.

• A no heat dry option can be used to save energy.

• A reset option allows you to change option settings anytime
during a cycle.

Start or Resume a Cycle

Run hot water at the sink nearest your dishwasher until the
water is hot. Turn off water.

Push door firmly closed. The door latches automatically. Turn
the cycle control knob to the desired cycle to start.

You can add an item anytime before the main wash starts. Lift
up the door latch to stop the cycle. Open the door slowly and
add the item. Close the door firmly until it latches. The
dishwasher resumes the cycle.

A white vinegar rinse may remove white spots and film. Vinegar is
an acid, and using it too often could damage your dishwasher.

Put 2 cups (500 mL) white vinegar in a glass or dishwasher-safe

measuring cup on the bottom rack. Run the dishwasher through a
complete washing cycle using an air-dry or an energy-saving dry

option. Do not use detergent. Vinegar will mix with the wash water.

Storing the Dishwasher

If you will not be using the dishwasher during the summer, turn off
the water and power supply to the dishwasher. In the winter, if the

dishwasher could be exposed to near freezing temperatures or is
left in a seasonal dwelling such as a second home or vacation

home, avoid water damage by having your dishwasher winterized
by authorized service personnel.

This dishwasher is equipped with an optical sensor wash that
detects water temperature, soil and detergent amount. Wash

cycles are adjusted based on what is sensed.
IMPORTANT: The very first wash cycle after installation in your

home will be adjusted to include an additional 2 rinses. This
cycle must not be interrupted for proper sensor adjustment. If

this adjustment cycle is canceled or stopped before the Clean
light comes on at the end of the cycle, the next wash cycle will

repeat this sensor adjustment.

• Water remains inthe dishwasher
Is the cycle complete?

• Detergent remains in the covered section of the dispenser
Is the cycle complete?

Is the detergent lump-free? Replace detergent if necessary.

• White residue on the front of the access panel
Was too much detergent used?

Is the brand of detergent making excess foam? Try a different
brand to reduce foaming and eliminate buildup.

• Odor in the dishwasher
Are dishes washed only every 2 or 3 days? Run a rinse cycle

once or twice a day until you have a full load.
Does the dishwasher have a new plastic smell? Run a vinegar

rinse as described in "Dishwasher Care."

• Condensation on the kitchen counter (built-in models)
Is the dishwasher aligned with the countertop? Moisture from

the vent in the dishwasher console can form on the counter.
Refer to the Installation Instructions for more information.
