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.
Your safety and the safety of others are very important.
We have provided many important safety messages in this manual 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:
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING:
When using the dishwasher, follow basic precautions, including the following:
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
■ Read all instructions before using the dishwasher.
■ 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 tamper with controls.
■ 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.
State of California Proposition 65 Warnings:
WARNING: This product contains one or more chemicals known to the State of California to cause cancer.
WARNING: This product contains one or more chemicals known to the State of California to cause birth defects or
other reproductive harm.

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.
■
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.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
■ Install where dishwasher is sheltered from the elements.
Avoid possible rupture of fill valve from freezing. Such
ruptures are not covered by the warranty. See the “Vacation
or Extended Time Without Use” section.
■ 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.

Congratulations on purchasing your water and energy efficient dishwasher! This dishwasher cleans by spraying
the dishes with water and pauses to allow the detergent to soak into and release the soils on the dishes. The
cycles are longer due to the soak and the pauses for exceptional cleaning. Models with SmartWash
an optical water sensor. The optical water sensor is used to determine the optimum water and energy
consumption for great cleaning performance. The first cycle using the sensor will run longer to calibrate the
optical sensor.
Performance
Using rinse aid will optimize your drying and wash
performance. This dishwasher is specifically designed to be
used with rinse aid for improved drying performance and
controlling buildup of hard water deposits. Energy efficient
dishwashers use less water and energy, so they depend on the
water “sheeting” action of rinse aid for total optimal
performance.

contain
The United States and Canada have passed a restriction
limiting the amount of phosphorus (phosphates) in the
household dishwasher detergents to no more than 0.5%, where
previous detergents contained 8.7%. Major manufacturers
have reformulated their dishwasher detergent for this change in
detergents as another step in eco-conscious awareness. With
these recent changes it is recommended to use tablets and
packs for convenience and improved performance.
Your dishwasher has the latest technology in dishwasher
filtration. This triple filtration system minimizes sound and
optimizes water and energy conservation while providing
optimal cleaning performance. Regular maintenance of your
filters will sustain peak cleaning performance. We suggest you
clean both your upper and lower filter and rinse under running
water at least once a month.

FILTRATION SYSTEM
Your dishwasher has the latest technology in dishwasher filtration. This triple filtration system minimizes sound and optimizes water
and energy consumption while providing superior cleaning performance. Throughout the life of your dishwasher, the filter will require
maintenance to sustain peak cleaning performance.
The triple filter system consists of 2 parts, an upper filter assembly and a lower filter.
®
■ The upper filter assembly keeps oversized items and foreign objects, along with very fine food particles out of the pump.
■ The lower filter keeps food from being recirculated onto your dishware.
In order to provide optimum cleaning performance we suggest a monthly filter maintenance by removing and inspecting both the
upper and the lower filter for any soils. Based on your dishwashing habits, cleaning of the filters may be required more or less often
than what is indicated in the chart below.
The filters may need to be cleaned when:
■ Visible objects or soils are on the Upper Filter Assembly.
■ There is degradation in cleaning performance (that is, soils still present on dishes).
■ Dishes feel gritty to the touch.
Removing and maintaining the filters is very easy. The chart below shows the recommended cleaning frequency.
Recommended time intervals to clean your filter
Number of
Loads Per Week
13-14 Once per year Twice per year Every two months Once per week
8-12 Once per year Every four months Every two months Every two weeks
4-7 Once per year Once per year Every four months Once per month
1-3 Once per year Once per year Twice per year Every two months
*Manufacturer's recommendation: This practice will eliminate the water and energy that you use preparing your dishes. This will also
save you time and effort.

Very Hard Water
If you have hard water (above 15 grains), clean your filter at least once per month. Building up of white residue on your dishwasher
indicates hard water. You may bring your water samples to Sears to check hardness level. For tips on removing spots and stains, see
“Troubleshooting” section.

To remove Upper Filter Assembly
Filter Reinstallation Instructions
11.Noting the previous illustrations, place the Lower Filter under the Locating Tabs in the
bottom of the dishwasher so the round opening for the Upper Filter Assembly lines up with
the round opening in the bottom of the tub.
Insert the Upper Filter Assembly into the circular opening in the Lower Filter.
Slowly rotate the filter clockwise until it drops into place. Continue to rotate until the filter
is locked into place. If the filter is not fully seated (still turns freely), continue to turn the
filter clockwise until it drops and locks into place.
The Upper Filter Assembly arrow does not have to align with the arrow in the
Lower Filter as long as the filter is locked.

is locked into place. If the Upper Filter Assembly turns
freely, it is not locked into place.
DISHWASHER EFFICIENCY TIPS
Hot water dissolves and activates the dishwasher detergent. Hot water also dissolves grease on dishes and helps glasses dry spotfree. For best dishwashing results, water should be 120°F (49°C) as it enters the dishwasher. Loads may not wash as well if the water
temperature is too low.
Additional efficiency tips
■ To save water, energy and time, only scrape dishes. Do not rinse dishes before putting them into the dishwasher.
■ Use a delay feature to run your dishwasher during off-peak hours. Local utility providers recommend avoiding heavy usage of
energy at certain times of day.
■ During the summer, run your dishwasher at night. This reduces daytime heat buildup in the kitchen.
■ Use a rinse aid to improve drying.

DISHWASHER CARE
Cleaning
In most cases, regular use of a soft, damp cloth or sponge and a mild detergent is all
that is necessary to keep the outside of your dishwasher looking nice and clean. If
your dishwasher has a stainless steel exterior, a stainless steel cleaner is
recommended.
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. You may want to wear rubber
gloves. Do not use any type of cleanser other than dishwasher detergent because it
may cause foaming or sudsing.
Make a paste with powdered dishwasher detergent on a damp sponge and clean.
Use liquid automatic dishwasher detergent and clean with a damp sponge.
See the vinegar rinse procedure in “Spotting and filming on dishes” in
“Troubleshooting” section.
Run a normal cycle with dishwasher detergent after cleaning the interior.
Drain Air Gap
Some state or local plumbing codes require the addition of a drain air gap between a
built-in dishwasher and the home drain system. Check the drain air gap when your
dishwasher is not draining well.
The drain air gap is usually located on top of the sink or countertop near the
dishwasher. To order a drain air gap, please call 1
Number 300096.
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.
Clean the drain air gap periodically to ensure proper drainage of your dishwasher.
With most types, you lift off the chrome cover. Unscrew the plastic cap. Then check
for any soil buildup. Clean if necessary.

Vacation or Extended Time Without Use
■ If you will not be using the dishwasher during the summer months, turn off the
water and power supply to the dishwasher.
■ Make sure the water supply lines are protected against freezing conditions. Ice
formations in the supply lines can increase water pressure and damage your
dishwasher or home. Damage from freezing is not covered by the warranty.
■ When storing your dishwasher in the winter, avoid water damage by having
your dishwasher winterized by authorized service personnel.

If the Start/Resume light is blinking, close the door and push START/RESUME.
Be sure the door is closed and latched.
Check that there is not an interference with large casserole dishes and the wash system at the
back of the dishwasher. Adjust loading as necessary to ensure door is closed and latched.
Be sure you have disabled Sleep Mode by pressing either START/RESUME or CANCEL/DRAIN,
or opening the door before selecting your cycle/option.
Be sure you have selected a cycle. (See “Cycles and Options Information.”)
Be sure there is power to the dishwasher. A circuit breaker or fuse may have tripped.
If lights other than Start/Resume blink and the unit will not run, you will need to call for service.
Check for dishware such as cookie sheets, cutting boards, or large containers, etc., that may be
blocking the detergent dispenser from opening properly.
Be sure your detergent is fresh and lump free.
Be sure the cycle has completed (blue light is on). If it has not completed, you will need to resume
the cycle by closing the door and pressing START/RESUME.
■ To use less water and reduce energy consumption you will encounter cycles that typically run
for up to 3 hours.
■ A water heater setting of 120°F (49ºC) is best. The dishwasher will delay longer while heating
cooler water.
■ Some options will add time to the cycle. (See “Cycles and Options Information” section.) The
Heated Dry option adds ½ hour.
Try the 1 Hour Wash cycle.
Run the hot water at a faucet close to the dishwasher before selecting and starting the cycle.
It is normal for the dishwasher to repeatedly pause several times during a cycle.
surface which tends to collect water droplets. Towel drying may be necessary.
Use of rinse aid along with the Heated Dry option is needed for proper drying.
Proper loading of items can affect drying. (See specific loading instructions within this guide.)
Glasses and cups with concave bottoms hold water. This water may spill onto other items when
unloading.
■ Unload the bottom rack first.
■ Locate these items on the more slanted side of the rack for improved results.
Be sure the water is turned on to the dishwasher.
Check that the float is free from obstructions. (See “Parts and Features.”)
Check for suds in the dishwasher. If foam or suds are detected, the dishwasher may not operate
properly or may not fill with water.
Be sure the cycle has completed (the blue light is on). If it has not, you will need to resume the
cycle by closing the door and pressing START/RESUME.
If dishwasher is connected to a food waste disposer, be sure the knockout plug has been
removed from the disposer inlet.
Check for kinks in the drain hose.
Check for food obstructions in the drain or disposer.
Check your house fuse or circuit breaker.

Extremely hard water mineral deposits can cause damage to your dishwasher and make
it difficult to achieve good cleaning. You may bring water samples to Sears to check your water
hardness level. A water softener is strongly recommended if your hardness is 15 grains or more. If
a water softener is not installed, the following steps may help:
Use a commercial cleaner designed for dishwashers once per month.
Clean the ULTRA WASH
Always use a rinse aid.
Always use a high-quality, fresh detergent.
Use a detergent booster/water softener additive designed for dishwashers.

load is ready to run, or use the Top Rack Only option (on some models) for partial loads.
Run a vinegar rinse through the dishwasher by putting 2 cups (500 mL) of white vinegar in an
upright glass measuring cup in the lower rack. Run a normal cycle with the Heated Dry option
turned off. Do not use detergent.
The dishwasher may not be draining properly, see “WATER REMAINS IN THE TUB/WILL NOT
DRAIN” in “Troubleshooting.”
■ Surging sounds can occur periodically throughout the cycle while the dishwasher is draining.
■ Normal water valve hissing may be heard periodically.
■ A normal snap sound may be heard when the detergent dispenser opens during the cycle
and when the door is opened at the end of the cycle.
■ Improper installation will affect noise levels.
Be sure the filters are properly installed.
A thumping sound may be heard if items extend beyond the racks and interfere with the wash
arms. Readjust the dishware and resume the cycle.
Be sure the dishwasher is loaded correctly. Improper loading can greatly decrease the washing
performance (see “Loading for Best Cleaning and Drying Performance”).
Check filter to ensure it is properly installed. Clean it if needed. (See “Cleaning Instructions” in
“ULTRA WASH
Select the proper cycle and option for the type of soils. The Pots & Pans cycle with the
TurboZone® (on some models) option can be used for tougher loads.
Be sure the incoming water temperature is at least 120°F (49ºC).
Use the proper amount of fresh detergent. More detergent is needed for heavier-soiled loads
and hard water conditions.
Scrape food from dishes prior to loading (do not prerinse).
If the dishwasher is not used, you can run a rinse cycle with the partial load until a full

rinse, or your water heater is set too low. Set your water heater to 120ºF (49ºC).
Improper loading can cause dishes to become chipped or damaged. (See specific loading
instructions within this guide.)
If Start/Resume or any status lights are blinking and the dishwasher will not run, close the door
and push START/RESUME. If the dishwasher still will not run, call service.

CLOUDY OR SPOTTED
DISHWARE (AND HARD
WATER SOLUTION)
NOTES:
ETCHING (PERMANENT
CLOUDINESS)
LEAKING WATER
TUB IS DISCOLORED NOTES:
PROBLEM SOLUTION
■ Liquid rinse aid is necessary for drying and to reduce spotting.
■ Use the correct amount of detergent.
Confirm that the cloudiness is removable by soaking the item in white vinegar for 5 minutes. If
the cloudiness disappears, it is due to hard water. Adjust the amount of detergent and rinse aid.
See “HARD WATER (WHITE RESIDUE ON DISHWASHER INTERIOR OR GLASSWARE)” in
“Troubleshooting.” If it does not come clear, it is due to etching (see below).
Be sure the incoming water temperature is set at 120°F (49ºC).
Try using the High Temp and Sani Rinse options.
To remove spotting, run a vinegar rinse through the dishwasher.
■ Wash and rinse the affected dishware and load into dishwasher. Remove all silverware and
metal items. Put 2 cups (500 mL) of white vinegar in a glass measuring cup in the lower rack.
Run a normal cycle with the Heated Dry option turned off. No detergent is needed.
This is an erosion of the surface of the glassware and can be caused by a combination of: water
that is too hot, from using too much detergent with soft water or by pre-washing. Detergent
needs food soil to act upon. If etching has occurred, the glassware is permanently damaged. To
avoid further etching, adjust the detergent amount to match the water hardness, stop prewashing, and use water heating options only when incoming water temperature is below 120°F
(49ºC).
Be sure dishwasher has been installed properly and is level.
Suds can cause the dishwasher to overflow. Measure the detergent accurately and use only
detergents designed for use in a dishwasher. Less detergent is needed in soft water. Try another
brand of detergent if sudsing continues.
To avoid rinse aid leaking from the dispenser, be sure the lid is securely attached and avoid
overfilling.
■ High iron content in the water can discolor the tub.
■ Tomato-based foods can discolor the tub or dishware.
■ A citrus-based cleaner can be used to clean.
