Warning! - To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to

persons, always exercise basic safety precautions, including the

following:

Read all instructions before using the appliance.

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;

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.

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

7. Do not operate the dishwasher unless all enclosure panels are properly in place.

8. Do not tamper with controls.

9. Do not abuse, sit on, or stand on the door, lid, or dish racks of the dishwasher.

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

11. 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.

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

the dishwasher.

Date of purchase

Staple your receipt to your manual. You will need it to obtain warranty service.

BEFORE USING YOUR DISHWASHER

Tip Over Hazard

. Do not use dishwasher until completely installed. . Do not push down on open door, doing so can

result in serious injury or cuts.

Electrical Shock Hazard

. Electrically ground dishwasher. . Connect ground wire to green ground connector in

terminal box. . Do not use an extension cord. . Failure to follow these instructions can result in

death, fire, or electrical shock.

. Install where dishwasher is protected from the elements. Protect against

freezing to avoid possible rupture of fill valve. Such ruptures are not covered by the warranty. See "Storing" in the "Dishwasher Care" section for winter storage

information.

. Install and level dishwasher on a floor that will hold the weight and in an area

suitable for its size and use.

. Remove all shipping plugs from hoses and connectors(such as the cap on the

drain outlet) before installing. See Installation Instructions for complete information.

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. 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.

USINGYOUR NEW DISHWASHER

1. Rinse aid is essential for good drying. Be sure to fill the dispenser before you use your new dishwasher. Each filling will last about 1 to 3 months depending on your usage.

2. Scrape leftover food and hard items ( toothpicks or bones ) from dishes. You do not need to pre-rinse your dishes.

3. Properly load the dishwasher. ( See" Dishwasher Loading") Load dishes with space in between so water will reach the soiled surfaces. Make sure nothing prevents the spray arm(s) from spinning freely..

4. Add detergent. Always use a quality brand detergent. ( See "Dishwasher Use")

5. Close the door.

6. Press the desired cycle and option selections. The dishwasher starts filling when you press a cycle. You can select options as the machine fills. ( See

"Dishwasher Use")

NOTE: If the dishwasher is not started before closing the

door, the cycle and options will not run.

LOADING SUGGESTIONS

, Remove leftover food, bones, toothpicks and other hard items from the dishes.

Toconserve water and energy and save time, it is not necessary to rinse dishes before putting them into the dishwasher. The wash module removes food particles from the water. The module contains a chopping device which will

reduce the size of food items.

NOTE:

, It is important for the water spray to reach all soiled surfaces. , Load dishes so they are not stacked or overlapping if possible. For best drying

, Load heavy pots and pans carefully. Heavy items can dent the stainless steel

, Make sure pot lids and handles, pizza pans, cookie sheets, etc., do not

* Conserve water, energy and save time spent hand-rinsing by running a rinse

If hard items such as fruit seeds, nuts, and eggshells enter the wash module, you might hear chopping, grinding, crunching, or buzzing

sounds. These sounds are normal when hard items enter the module. Do

not let metallic items ( such as pot handle screws ) get into the wash module. Damage can occur.

cycle to keep dishes moist if you do not plan to wash them soon. Foods such as eggs, rice, pasta, spinach and cooked cereals may be hard to remove if they are left to dry over a period of time.

QUIET OPERATING TiPS Toavoid thumping/clattering noises during operation:

, Make sure lightweight load items are secured in the racks. , Make sure pot lids and handles, pizza pans, cookie sheets, etc., do not touch

interior walls or interfere with the rotation of the spray arm.

, Load dishes so they do not touch one another.

NOTE: For built-in models, keep sink drain plugs closed during dishwasher

operation to prevent noise transfer through drains.

LOADING TOP RACK The top rack is designed for cups, glasses and smaller items, Many items, up to

9 in. ( 22 cm ), fit in the top rack. ( See recommended loading patterns shown ) NOTE: The features on your dishwasher rack may vary from the drawings shown.

12 PlaceSetting

. Place items so open ends face down for cleaning and draining. . Load glasses and cups in top rack only. The bottom rack is not designed for

glasses and cups. Damage can occur.

. Place cups and glasses in the rows between tines. Placing them over the tines

can lead to breakage and water spots.

Cup and Glass Load

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

dishwasher operation. Damage may occur.

. Load plastic items in the top rack only. Only plastic items marked "dishwasher

safe" are recommended.

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

cycle.

. To avoid chipping, do not let stemware touch other items. Small bowls, pans

and other utensils can be placed in the top rack. Load bowls in the center section for best stability.

SURE=HOLD • UTILITY SHELF Fold down the extra shelf on the left or right side of the top rack to hold additional

cups, stemware or long items such as utensils and spatulas.

can be damaged by contact with each other during washing.

, Some foods ( such as salt, vinegar, milk products, fruit juices, etc. ), can pit or

corrode silverware. Run a rinse cycle if you do not have a full load to wash immediately.

PROPER USE OF DETERGENT

Use only detergent specifically made for use in dishwasher. Cascade, Cascade Complete and Electrasol Automatic Dishwashing Detergents have been approved for use in all Haler dishwasher. Keep your detergent fresh and dry. Don't put

powder detergent into the dispenser until you're ready to wash dishes.

All wash cyclesexcept RINSEONLY require detergent in the main and pre-wash cup.

Detergent Dispenser The detergent dispenser has 2 sections, the small Pre-Wash section empties detergent into dishwasher when you close the door.

The larger Main wash section automatically empties detergent into the dishwasher during the wash ( See the "cycle Selection Charts" )

, Use automatic dishwashing detergent only. Other detergents can produce

excessive suds that can overflow out of the dishwasher and reduce washing

performance. * Add detergent just before starting a cycle. , Store tightly closed detergent in a cool, dry place. Fresh automatic dishwasher

detergent results in better cleaning.

NOTE: Do not use detergent with a rinse cycle.

Filling the dispenser

1. If the dispenser over is closed, open the cover by pushing the cover latch.

1. Cover latch

2. Main Wash section

3. Pre-Wash section

4. Cover

2. FilltheMainWashsectionwithdetergent.See"Howmuch detergenttouse."

3. FillthePre-Washsection,ifneeded.

4. Closethedispensercover.

It is normal for the cover to open partially when dispensing detergent.

NOTE: Use both sections for cycles with 2 washes. Use only the main wash

section for cycles with 1 wash, See the "Cycle Selection Charts" for more details.

How much detergent to use

, The amount of detergent to use depends on the hardness of your water and

the type of detergent. If you use too little, dishes won't be clean. If you use too much in soft water, glassware will etch.

, Different brands of dishwasher detergent have different amounts of

phosphorous for softening water. If you have hard water and use a detergent with a phosphorous content of less than 8.7%, you might need to use more detergent, or use a detergent with a phosphorous content higher than 8.7%.

Water Hardness

Amount of Detergent

Soft to Medium Hard Water

0 to 6 grains per gallon

Medium to hard water

7 to 12 grains per gallon

Very Hard Water 13 grains per gallon and above

NOTE: It might be necessary to use the Baked on Cookware cycle, or a normal cycle with Hi- Temp Scrub, for best wash performance with very

hand water.

For normally soiled loads

• Partially fill the Main Wash section to the 20 gram

• Completely fill the Pre-Wash section

NOTE: Fill the Pre-Wash section halfway if dishes are pre-rinsed or the water is very soft(0 to

3.2/12 2 grains per gallon)

For heavily soiled loads

• Partially fill the Main Wash section to the 30 gram

• Completely fill the Pre-Wash section

For normal and heavily soiled loads

• Partially fill the Main Wash section to the 3%

• Completely fill the Pre-Wash section

For normally and heavily soiled loads

• Completely fill the main wash section

• Completely fill the Pre-Wash section

• Turn the rinse aid dispenser to a higher setting. See "Rinse Aid Dispenser " later in this section

NOTE: Fill amounts shown are for standard powdered detergent. Amounts may vary if you use liquid or concentrated powdered detergent. Follow instruction on the package when using liquid dishwasher

detergent or concentrated powdered detergent.

If you use detergent tablets, use one whole tablet in the Main Wash section only for all loads and water hardness levels.

RINSE AID DISPENSER Rinse aids prevent 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 by releasing a small amount of the rinse aid into the rinse water. Your dishwasher is designed to use a liquid rinse aid. Do not use a solid or bar-type.

FILLING THE DISPENSER

The rinse aid dispenser holds 4.8 oz ( 145ml ) of rinse aid. Under normal conditions, this will last for about three months. Rinse aid is released through an opening in the dispenser. You do not to wait until the dispenser is empty to refill it. Try to keep it full, but be careful not to overfill it.

1. Make sure the dishwasher door is fully open.

2. Open the dispenser by pushing the cover latch.

yu®t c

3. Add rinse aid until the indicator window looks full.

4. Clean up any spilled rinse aid with a damp cloth.

5. Close the cover.

RINSE AID SETTING The amount of rinse aid released into the final wash can be adjusted. The factory

setting is at 2. For most water conditions, set the adjuster to 2 or 3. If there are rings or calcium ( hard water ) spots on dishes, try a higher setting.

is all that is necessary to keep the outside of your dishwasher looking nice and clean.

Cleaning the interior Hard water minerals can cause a white film to build up on the inside surfaces, especially just beneath the door area.

Do not clean the dishwasher interior until it has cooled. Wear rubber gloves. Do not use any type of cleanser other than dishwasher detergent because it may

cause foaming or create suds.

To clean interior

Make a paste with powdered dishwasher detergent on a damp sponge and clean.

OR Use liquid automatic dishwasher detergent and clean with a damp sponge.

OR See the vinegar rinse procedure in "spotting and filming on dishes" in

"Troubleshooting." NOTE: Run a Normal cycle with detergent after cleaning the interior.

BRAIN AIR GAP Check the drain air gap anytime your dishwasher isn't draining well.

Some state or local plumbing codes require the addition of a drain air gap between a built-in dishwasher and the home drain system.If a drain is clogged,

the drain air gap protects your dishwasher from water backing up into it.

The drain air gap is usually located on top of the sink or countertop near the dishwasher.

NOTE: The drain air gap is an external plumbing device that is not part of your

dishwasher. The warranty provided with your dishwasher does not cover service costs directly associated with the cleaning or repair of the external

drain air gap.

TO clean the drain air gap Clean the drain air gap periodically to ensure proper drainage of your

dishwasher. Follow the cleaning instructions provided by the manufacturer. With most types: Lift off the chrome cover. Unscrew the plastic cap. Check for any soil buildup. Clean if necessary.

STORING Storing for the Summer

Protect your dishwasher during the summer months by turning off the water supply and power supply to the dishwasher.

Winterizing your dishwasher

Protect your dishwasher and home against water damage caused by freezing water lines. If your dishwasher is left in a seasonal dwelling or could be exposed to near freezing temperatures, have your dishwasher winterized by authorized

service personnel.
