DISHWASHER SAFETY

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 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

This is the safety alert symbol. "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.

• 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.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

• For a grounded, cord-connected dishwasher: The dishwasher must be grounded. Inthe 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.

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.

WHAT'S NEW IN YOUR DISHWASHER

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 ®HEcontain

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.

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.

The United States has 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.

See "ULTRA WASH _HE FILTRATION SYSTEM" for information on removing and

maintaining the filters.

Tall items placed in the lower

the cycle is complete, the dispenser was blocked.

You must use a drying agent such as rinse aid for good

drying performance (sample included). Rinse aid along

with the Heated Dry option will provide best drying and

avoid excessive moisture in the dishwasher interior.

For improved drying, select the Heated Dry

option to add additional time to dry.

It is possible to use too much detergent in your dishwasher. This can lead to etching of your dishes. See "Detergent and

Rinse Aid" to determine the amount of detergent needed based on your water hardness. Using dishwasher detergent

tablets and packs have been proven better than powder,

liquid or gel detergents to reduce filming on your dishes.

ULTRA WASH ®HEFILTRATION 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.

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.

Filter Removal Instructions

I. Turn the Upper Filter Assembly 1/4turn counterclockwise and lift out.

2. Grasp the Lower Filter in the circular opening, lift slightly, and pull forward to remove.

3. Clean the filters as shown below.

Cleaning Instructions

IMPORTANT: Do not use wire brush, scouring pad, etc., as they may damage the filters.

Rinse filter under running water until most soils are removed. If you have hard-to-remove soils or calcium deposits from hard water, a

soft brush may be required.

Locating tab

To remove Upper Filter Assembly

Filter Reinstallation Instructions

1. 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.

g tab

2. Insert the Upper Filter Assembly into the circular opening in the Lower Filter.

3. 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. NOTE: The Upper Filter Assembly arrow does not have to align with the arrow in the

Lower Filter as long as the filter is locked.

To replace Upper Filter Assembly

IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to dishwasher, do not operate your dishwasher without the ULTRA WASH _HEfilters properly installed. Be sure the Lower Filter is securely in place and the Upper Filter Assembly 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 spot- free. 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.

IMPORTANT: Your dishwasher is designed to use a liquid rinse aid. The use of rinse aids greatly improves drying by allowing

water to drain from the dishes after the final rinse. They also keep water from forming droplets that can dry as spots or

streaks. Filling the Dispenser

The dispenser holds 5 oz (150 mL) of rinse aid. Under most conditions this will last 1to 3 months.

1. Turn the knob to the REFILL position and remove.

2. Pour rinse aid into the opening until the indicator points to FULL. Do not overfill.

Clean up any spilled rinse aid. Spilled rinse aid can create excessive suds.

4. Replace the knob and turn to the LOCI< position.

NOTE: Indicator reads correct fill level when door is completely opened.

Rinse Aid Setting

Your rinse aid dispenser is adjustable. For most water conditions, the factory setting will give good results. If you have hard water and notice calcium buildup on your dishware, you may want to

try a higher setting. If you notice foam in your dishwasher, use a lower setting.

Lock

*Full pre-wash compartment contains 7 tsp (35 mL), and full

main wash cup contains 9 tsp (45 mL).

Premeasured Detergents

Many detergents now come in premeasured forms (gel packs,

tablets, or powder packs). These forms are suitable for all

hardness and soil levels. Always place premeasured detergents in the main compartment and close the lid.

Using dishwasher detergent tablets and packs have been proven better than powder, liquid or gel detergents to reduce

filming on your dishes. By using these tablets and packs, over time this will start to reduce or eliminate white film. Also, by

using a rinse aid you can minimize repeat buildup of white film. IMPORTANT: Extremely hard water mineral deposits (15 grains

per U.S. gallon or more) can cause damage to your dishwasher and make it difficult to achieve good results. A water softener is

recommended to avoid damage and achieve good results. You may bring your water samples to Sears to check hardness level.

Refill

To Adjust the Setting

1. Turn the knob to the REFILL position and remove.

2. Turn the arrow inside the dispenser to the desired setting.

DISHWASHER CARE

Cleaning the exterior

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.

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. 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.

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 "Cloudy or spotted dishware" in "Troubleshooting" section.

NOTE: Run a normal cycle with dishwasher detergent after cleaning the interior.

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 1-800-4-MY-HOME ®, Ask for Part Number 300096.

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. With most types, you lift off the chrome cover. Unscrew the plastic cap. Then check

for any soil buildup. Clean if necessary.

To reduce the risk of property damage • 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.

TROUBLESHOOTING

CHECK THESE POINTS TO HELPSAVE YOU TIME AND MONEY.

PROBLEM SOLUTION ..................................

DISHWASHER DOES NOT RUN

DETERGENT REMAINS IN THE DISPENSER OR TABLET IS ON

BOTTOM OF TUB

NOTE: It is normal for the dishwasher to repeatedly pause several times during a cycle. If the Start light is blinking, close the door and push START.

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 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 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.

PROBLEM SOLUTION CYCLE RUNS TOO LONG

DISHWASHER NOT DRYING

WILL NOT FILL

NOTES:

• Touse 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 (49°C) 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 1/2hour.

Try the 1Hour Wash cycle. Run the hot water at a faucet close to the dishwasher before starting the cycle.

NOTE: Plastic and items with nonstick surfaces are difficult to dry because they have a porous 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.

WATER REMAINS IN THE TUB/ WILL NOT DRAIN

HARD WATER

(WHITE RESIDUE ON

DISHWASHER INTERIOR OR

GLASSWARE)

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.

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. NOTE: 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 _;HEfilters at least once per month.

Always use a rinse aid. Always use a high-quality, fresh detergent.

Use a detergent booster/water softener additive designed for dishwashers.

PROBLEM SOLUTION

ODORS

NOISY

FOOD SOILS REMAIN

ON DISHES

NOTE: If the dishwasher is not used daily, you can run a rinse cycle with the partial load until a full 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." NOTES:

• 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 _;HE Filtration System" for details.)

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 (49°C). 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).

DID NOT SANITIZE If the sanitized light is blinking, the load is NOTsanitized. The cycle was interrupted in the final

rinse, or your water heater is set too low. Set your water heater to 120°F (49°C).

DAMAGE TO DISHWARE Improper loading can cause dishes to become chipped or damaged. (See specific loading

instructions within this guide.)

BLINKING LIGHTS If Start or any status lights are blinking and the dishwasher will not run, close the door and push

START.If the dishwasher still will not run, call service.

PROBLEM SOLUTION

CLOUDY OR SPOTTED

DISHWARE (AND HARD

NOTES:

• Liquid rinse aid is necessary for drying and to reduce spotting.

WATER SOLUTION)

• 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 (49°C).

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.

ETCHING (PERMANENT

CLOUDINESS)

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 pre-

washing, and use water heating options only when incoming water temperature is below 120°F

(49°C).

LEAKING WATER

TUB IS DISCOLORED NOTES:

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.
