Important Safety Instructions
This symbol will help alert you to such
dangers as personal injury, burns, fire and
electrical shock.
To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or
injury when using your dishwasher, follow
basic precautions including the following:
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.
• 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 if
dishwasher is connected with a food waste
disposer.
• Do not operate dishwasher unless all
enclosure panels are in their proper place.
• To avoid entrapment and/or suffocation,
remove door or door latch mechanism from
any dishwasher that is discarded or not in
use.
• Keep young children and infants away from
dishwasher when it is operating.
• Do not let children abuse, sit, stand or play
on door or racks of a dishwasher.
Use only detergents and rinse agents
recommended for use in a dishwasher.
Store dishwasher detergent and rinse
agents out of the reach of children.
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 and create a potential fire
hazard.
• If the dishwasher drains into a food
disposer, make sure disposer is completely
empty before running dishwasher.
• Disconnect electrical power to dishwasher
before servicing.
• Repairs should be done by a qualified
technician.
Do not tamper with controls.
Do not touch the heating element during or
immediately after use.
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 cut-type
injuries.
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.

Dishwasher Features
Your dishwasher cleans by spraying a mixture of hot water and detergent through the spray arms
against soiled surfaces. First, the dishwasher fills with water covering the filter area. Water is then
pumped through the filter and spray arms. Soil particles go down the drain as the water is pumped out
and replaced with clean water. The number of water fills will vary with the cycle being used.

InformationmRead Before
Operating Your Dishwasher!
Normal Operating
Sounds
This dishwasher does not sound like most
dishwashers--IT'S QUIETER.
Your Precision Wash System® dishwasher
uses energy efficient motors for the wash
and drain portions of the cycle you select.
Each cycle has a series of water fills and
drains for washing and rinsing dishes. As
each cycle begins, you may-or may not-
hear the drain motor.
The next sound you will hear is the
splashing water as it enters the tub. Then the
lower arm rotates and circulates water. This
is followed by a pause and a slightly different
sound as the middle arm sprays water. If you
listen closely, you will hear the change in
sound as the wash action switches from one
arm to the other.
PLEASE BE ADVISED: If you compare
this dishwasher to previous models, you
may be surprised at what you DON'T
hear!

approximately 140°F (60°C). This will speed
drying and reduce spotting. HI-TEMP RINSE ON
option can be used with any cycle except RINSE
HOLD.
To turn off option, select HI-TEMP RINSE OFF.
Operating
Preparing and
Instructions (continued)
Heat Dry Option
HEAT DRY ON option provides faster drying since
the heating element is on during the drying portion
of cycle.
The HEAT DRY option in combination with rinse
aid will give you excellent drying results. The
energy to use HEAT DRY costs pennies per cycle.
You may turn off the HEAT DRY option, however
you will have items in your dish load that will not be
dry at the end of the cycle.
With either option, you may see water vapor
coming from vent during the washing and/or drying
portion of cycle. On some models, the vent is
closed during washing to hold moisture and sound
inside and then opens for drying.
The drying option may be changed at any time
during the cycle and affects only the drying period.
Status Indicator Lights
(available select models)
Loading Dishes
Dish Preparation
Scrape away large pieces of food, bones, pits,
toothpicks, etc. The continuous filtered wash
system will remove remaining food particles.
Burned-on foods should be loosened before
loading. Empty liquids from glasses and cups.
Foods such as mustard, mayonnaise, vinegar,
lemon juice and tomato based products may
cause discoloration of stainless steel and
plastics if allowed to sit for a long period of
time. Unless the dishwasher is to be operated
at once, it is best to rinse off these food soils.
• Load racks so that large items do not
prevent the detergent dispenser from
opening.
• Check manufacturer's recommendations
before washing items in question.
• If the dishwasher drains into a food
disposer, be sure disposer is completely
empty before starting dishwasher.
When DELAY START option is selected, the
Delay Start light will glow as timer counts
down to begin cycle.
The WASHING LIGHT comes on at the
beginning of the cycle and remains on until the
end of the main wash.
CLEAN light comes on when a cycle is
complete. To turn it off, turn dial slightly until
light goes off.

Preparing and Loading Dishes (continued)
Loading the Bottom Rack
Features and appearance of racks and
silverware basket may vary from your model.
Make sure tall items do not block spray arm
rotation.
Place plates and platters so that they do not
touch.
Place bowls, casseroles and sauce pans with
the soiled surface facing down or toward the
center. Tilt slightly for better drainage.
Be sure pan handles do not protrude through
the bottom of the rack and block the spray arm
rotation.
Loading the Silverware
Basket
Mix spoons, forks and knives to prevent
nesting. Mixing items gives better cleaning and
drying.
For safety, load sharp knives and forks with
handles up.
Be sure nothing protrudes through bottom of
basket or rack to block the spray arm.
Do not mix silver and stainless to avoid
damaging the silver finish.
Adding a Dish
To add or remove items after wash cycle
starts:
• Unlatch door and wait a few seconds until
wash action stops before opening.
• Add the item and wait a few seconds to
allow cold air to slowly expand inside
dishwasher.
• Close door firmly to latch and resume cycle.
Dishwasher Dispenser & Detergents
Filling the Detergent Dispenser
The detergent dispenser has one covered and one
uncovered cup. Detergent in the uncovered cup falls
into the dishwasher when the door is closed. The
covered cup opens automatically to release
detergent.
• Use only fresh automatic dishwashing
detergent. Other detergents will cause
oversudsing.
When using automatic dishwashing detergent
close.
Add detergent just before starting cycle.
Store detergent in a cool, dry location. Moist
or caked detergent will not dissolve properly.
Pr!T o] #I
The use of industrial grade detergent can
damage the heating coil and other parts of the
dishwasher leading to damage to the unit and
surrounding property. Use only household grade
automatic dishwasher detergents.
How much Detergent to use
The amount of detergent to use depends on the
water hardness. Water hardness is measured in
grains per gallon. 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. Your
local water company, water softener company or
county extension agent can tell you the water
hardness in your area.

Factors Affecting
Dispenser &
Detergents (continued)
Rinse Aid
Rinse aid greatly improves drying and
reduces water spots and filming. Water
"sheets" off dishes rather than forming water
droplets that cling and leave spots.
A 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. The indicator will be
dark when full and will show clear when it is
time to refill.
To add liquid rinse aid, turn dispenser cap 1/4
turn counterclockwise and lift out. Pour in rinse
aid until liquid touches the indicated fill level.
Replace cap.
Do not overfill since this can cause
oversudsing. Wipe up any spills with a damp
cloth.
The dispenser holds enough for 35 to 140
washes, depending on setting.
Dispenser Opening
Indicator
Performance
Water Pressure
The hot water line to dishwasher must provide
water pressure between 20 and 120 psi.
Low water pressure may occur when laundry
or showers are in operation. Wait until water
use is reduced before starting dishwasher.
Water Temperature
Hot water is needed for best dishwashing and
drying results. Water entering dishwasher
should be at least 120°F (49°C) to give
satisfactory results.
To check water temperature entering
dishwasher:
• Turn on hot water faucet nearest
dishwasher for several minutes to clear cool
water from pipes.
• Hold a candy or meat thermometer in
stream of water to check the temperature.
• If temperature is below 120°F (49°C), have
a qualified person raise the hot water heater
thermostat setting.
Important: Before starting a cycle, run hot
water to clear cool water from pipe.

Care and Cleaning
Burn Hazard
Allow heating element to cool
before cleaning the interior.
Failure to do so can result in
burns.
Outside--Occasionally wipe with a mild
nonabrasive detergent and water. Rinse and
dry.
Models with Stainless Steel Door--
Clean outer door with warm soapy water and a
dishcloth or sponge. Rinse with clean water
and a dry cloth. Do not use harsh cleaners.
Inside--The inside of the dishwasher is self-
cleaning with normal use. If needed, clean
around the tub gasket area with a damp cloth.
Care of Drain Air Gap
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 countertop and can
be inspected by removing the cover. This is not
part of your dishwasher and is not covered by
warranty.
Property Damage Hazard
Freezing temperatures may cause water
lines to rupture. Be sure all supply lines to
and circulating lines within dishwasher are
protected.
Failure to do so could result in property
damage.
The filter is self-cleaning. A glass trap located
in the center of the
filter is designed to
collect pieces of
broken glass, straws,
bones and pits. To
remove items in
glass trap, grasp
handle, lift out, empty
and replace.
Note: Hard water may cause lime deposit
buildup on the interior of the dishwasher. For
cleaning instructions see "Removing Spots
and Film" section.
Overfill Protector--keeps dishwasher
from overfilling and is located in the left front
corner of the tub.
• Clean occasionally with household cleaner
containing vinegar or bleach to dissolve any
buildup.
• Overfill Protector
should move up and
down freely about one
inch. If it does not
move, lift and clean
underneath.
Winterizing
A dishwasher left in an unheated place should
be protected from freezing. Have a qualified
person do the following:
To Disconnect Service:
1. Turn off electrical power to the dishwasher
at the supply source by removing fuses or
tripping circuit breaker.
2. Shut off water supply.
3. Place a pan under the inlet valve.
Disconnect water line from inlet valve and
drain into pan.
4. Disconnect drain line from pump and drain
water into pan.
Note: See Installation Instructions for more
details.
To Restore Service:
1. Reconnect the water, drain, and electrical
power supply.
2. Turn on water and electrical power supply.
3. Fill both detergent cups and run
dishwasher through a NORMAL cycle.
4. Check connections to make sure they do
not leak.
Note: See Installation Instructions for more
details.
11
Solutions to Common Dishwashing Problems
Before calling for service, review this list. It
may save you both time and expense. This
list includes common experiences that are
not the result of defective workmanship or
material in your dishwasher.
Food Soils Left on Dishes
Choose another cycle for longer washing
time.
• Check rack loading section for proper
loading--avoid nesting items.
° Home water pressure may be too low--
should be 20 to 120 pounds per square
inch (psi).
° Check incoming water temperature. It
should be at least 120°F (49°C). (See
Factors Affecting Performance.)
• Select HI-TEMP WASH option.
° Check water hardness. For extremely hard
water, it may be necessary to install a water
softener. (See Detergent Chart.)
• Use fresh detergent.
• Check to make sure funnel in top rack is not
blocked.
Make sure items are not blocking the spray
arms, preventing them from rotating.
Dishes not Dry
• Select heat dry option.
° Make sure the rinse aid dispenser is filled.
• Increase the amount of rinse aid. (See
Rinse Aid.)
• Check the incoming water temperature. Be
sure it is at least 120°F (49°C).
° Check for proper loading--avoid nesting
items.
Glassware/Flatware Spotted or
Cloudy
• Check water hardness. For extremely hard
water, it may be necessary to install a water
softener. (See Detergent Chart.)
• Water temperature may be low. Avoid
extremely low or high temperatures. (See
Factors Affecting Performance.)
• Avoid overloading and improper loading.
(See Preparing and Loading Dishes.)
° Use fresh detergent. Old detergent is
ineffective.
• Make sure rinse aid dispenser is filled.
• Check to see that proper amount of
detergent is being used for cycle selected.
Also, check phosphate level. (See
Detergent Dispenser.)
• Home water pressure may be too low--it
should be 20 to 120 pounds per square
inch (psi).
Dishware Chipped
• Load with care and do not overload. (See
Preparing and Loading Dishes.)
° Place delicate items in top rack.
° Place glasses securely against pins and
not over pins.
• Load items so they are secure and don't jar
loose when moving racks in and out. Move
racks in and out slowly.
• Make sure tall glasses and stemware will
clear top of tub when rack is pushed in.
° Fine antique china and crystal should be
hand-washed.
° Plastic items may need to be towel dried.
° Cups with a concave bottom will collect
water.
12
Solutions to Common Dishwashing Problems
(continued)
Dishware Stained or Discolored
• Tea and coffee can stain cups. Remove the
stains by hand washing in a solution of 1/2
cup (120 ml) bleach and one quart (1 L) of
warm water. Rinse thoroughly.
• Iron deposits in water can cause a yellow or
brown film. A special filter installed in the
water supply line will correct this problem.
(See Removing Spots and Film.)
• Aluminum utensils can leave gray/black
marks when they rub against other items.
Load properly.
• Certain high acid foods can cause
discoloration of stainless steel and plastics if
allowed to sit for a long period. Use the
Rinse/Hold cycle or rinse by hand if not
operating dishwasher at once.
• Mixing stainless steel and silver utensils in
silverware basket can cause pitting of the
stainless steel blades. Avoid mixing stainless
steel and silver.
Etching
• Using too much detergent in soft or softened
water causes this film that cannot be
removed.
• Adjust the amount of detergent based on the
water hardness. (Check Detergent Chart.)
• Lower the water temperature.
• Use the Heat Dry Off option.
Detergent Left in Cups
Detergent may be old. Discard and use fresh
detergent.
Be sure water action can reach the
dispenser.
Check to see if cycle has been completed.
Make sure items do not prevent the detergent
dispenser from opening.
Dishwasher Leaks
• Use onlyfresh detergent designed for
automatic dishwashers. Measure detergent
carefully. Try a different brand.
• Spilled rinse aid can cause foam and lead to
overflowing. Wipe up any spills with a damp
cloth.
Check to see that dishwasher is level. (See
Installation Instructions.)
Normal Sounds You Will Hear
Normal sounds include water fill, water
circulation and motor sounds.
• There is a noticeable change in sound when
the wash action switches between the lower
and middle spray arm. This is normal since
each spray arm has its own sound.
• It is normal for dishwasher to pause (no
sound) when the wash action is switching
between the lower and middle spray arms.
Water in Bottom of Tub
Water left in bottom of tub after cycle is
complete is not normal. If water remains in
the bottom of the tub, dishwasher may not be
draining properly. (See Dishwasher Does
Not Drain Properly.)
Vapor at Vent
• Water vapor escapes from the vent during
the washing and/or drying part of cycle. This
is normal.
Dishwasher Won't Run
• Check to see if circuit breaker is tripped or if
a fuse is blown.
• Make sure water supply is turned on.
• Check to see if cycle is set correctly. (See
Operating Instructions.)
• Is dishwasher set for delay start option?
• Make sure door is closed and latched.
13
Solutions to Common Dishwashing Problems
(continued)
Dishwasher Does
Not Drain
Properly
If unit is hooked up to a food waste disposer,
make sure the disposer is empty.
• Check to see if the knockout plug has been
removed from inside the food waste
disposer inlet.
• Check to see if drain hose is kinked.
• Make sure cycle is complete, not in a pause.
Cycle Takes a Long Time
• Is cycle in a water heating delay?
• Has the delay start option been selected?
• Has the sanitize option been selected?
Dishwasher Won't Fill
• Iswatersupplyturned on?
• Check your home circuit breaker orfuse box.
• Check inlet hose for a kink.
• Does overfill protector move up and down
freely? (See Overfill Protector section.)
Dishwasher Has an Odor
• Soiled dishes left in dishwasher too long can
create an odor. Rinse dishes if not running
dishwasher at once.
• There will be a "new" smell when first
installed. This is normal.
Washing large amounts of dishware with
tomato based soil can cause a pink/orange
appearance. This will not affect performance
and will gradually fade over time. Pre-rinsing
will reduce the chance of staining. Using
HEAT DRY OFF option will lessen staining.
Removing Spots and Film
Hard water can cause lime deposit buildup on
the interior of the dishwasher. Dishes and
glasses may also get spots and film for a
number of reasons. (See Glassware/Flatware
Spotted or Cloudy section.) To remove buildup,
spots and film, clean using the following
instructions:
.
Load clean dishes and glasses in normal
manner. Do not load any metal utensils or
silverware.
2. Do not add detergent.
3. Select the POTS & PANS/HEAVY WASH
cycle. Close and latch door.
4. Allow dishwasher to run for 25 minutes to
reach the main wash portion of cycle.
5. Unlatch and open door and pour 2 cups of
white vinegar into the bottom of dishwasher.
6. Close and latch door and allow cycle to
finish.
Note: If these conditions persist, a home water
softener should be considered.
• Check to see if unit is draining properly. (See
Dishwasher Does Not Drain Properly.)
Stains on Tub Interior
To customize your dishwasher to match your cabinets:
• You will need a trim kit.
• See Step 10 of Installation Instructions that came with your dishwasher for more information.
