FRIGIDAIRE FGHD2472PW User Manual
Pump Assembly
The pump assembly is driven by a synchronous
motor. The motor drives a pump which supplies
100 percent filtered water
Draining is accomplished by using a small
separate synchronous drain pump mounted to
the side of the sump. The drain pump is
connected to the main pump by a small rubber
hose. The drain check valve is located at the
discharge end of the drain pump. The drain hose
is attached by a clamp to the discharge end of
the drain pump.
Heater
Refer to the cycle chart on the reverse side to
determine when the heater is on during the
wash cycle. The heater cycles ON and OFF for
brief periods during the drying cycle.
The drain hose must have a loop at a
height of 32 inches
in order to insure proper
minimum
drainage.
Voltage checks of the heater should be made in
the dry portion of the service test mode.

Standard Dry Air Flow
The heated, moist air leaving the dishwasher
through the lower vent causes drier air to be
drawn into the unit by way of intake vents located
at the side of the tub.
Detergent and Rinse Aid Dispenser
The detergent and rinse aid dispenser is a one
piece component consisting of a molded
detergent cup and a built-in rinse aid dispenser.
The detergent cup has a spring loaded cover
and the rinse aid dispenser has a removable
cover.
Liquid rinse aid is added to the dispenser up to
the fill line indicator. The amount of rinse aid
released can be adjusted by turning the arrow
indicator from one, being the least amount, to
four, being the greatest amount.
The water on the dishes is evaporated into drier
air and the venting process continues. The
heating element is turned ON and OFF during the
entire drying cycle.
To replace dispenser:
• shut off electricity to dishwasher,
• remove outer door panel assembly,
• disconnect wiring to the actuator,
• remove the six screws,
• remove the dispenser,
