DISHWASHER SAFETY
Your safety and the safety of others is 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 hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.
All safety messages will be preceded by the safety alert symbol and the word "DANGER" or
This is the safety alert symbol.
"WARNING." These words mean:
You will be killed or seriously injured if you don't
follow instructions.
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't
follow instructions.
All safety messages will identify the hazard, 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:
m Read all instructions before using the dishwasher.
• Use the dishwasher only for its intended function.
s 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.
s 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 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 to the washing compartment when
removing an old dishwasher from service or
discarding it.

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 appro-
priate 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.

The ULTRA WASH soil removal system gives you sparkling
clean dishes, while using less energy and time. The ULTRA
WASH soil removal system includes:
A heavy-duty grinder that acts as a food disposer to grind
and dispose of large food particles,
7. Food soil is held in an accumulating chamber.
How the ULTRA WASH soil removal system
works:
1. Load the dishwasher. Remove bones, large chunks or
burned-on food. No rinsing is necessary. Any remaining
food soil will be ground up and disposed clown the
drain with the rinse water.
2. Hot water fills the dishwasher to a level near the bottom
of the overfill protection float.
3. The Water Heat indicator glows and the dishwasher
pauses while the water is heated.
4. When the water reaches the proper temperature, the
Water Heat indicator turns off and the cycle countdown
resumes.
5. Detergent from the detergent dispenser is dispensed at
the correct cycle times and hot water is pumped
through the ULTRA WASH pump.
6. Hot water and detergent sprays against the soiled
surfaces of the load and removes food particles.
8. Food soil is disposed down the drain with the wash
water.
9. Fresh, hot water enters the dishwasher and sprays on
the dishes. The rinse water is then pumped through the
ULTRA WASH soil removal system and remaining soil is
removed.
10.The food soil that is held in the ULTRA WASH soil
removal system is disposed down the drain with the
rinse water.
11.The final rinse water is heated. The rinse aid is added to
the water for the final rinse to prepare the dishes for
drying.
