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.
MMPORTANT SAFETY MNSTRUCTMONS
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 equivaUent. For plastic items not so marked, check the manufacturer"s
recommendations. Do not touch the heating element during or
immediately after use.
SAVE THESE mNSTRUCTUONS
[] 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 isflammable, 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.

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 cute.
GROUNDmNG mNSTRUCTmONS
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 permanentJy 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.
Electrical Shock Hazard
Electricaly ground dishwasher. Connect ground wire to green ground connector
in terminal box. Do not use an e×teneion 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.

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.
An ULTRA WASH _sensor to monitor soil level and adjust the cycles as needed.
An Automatic Temperature Control (ATC) that ensures the proper water temperature for the selected wash cycle, and
soil level of the load. A Triple Action Filtration system that intermittently filters soil
from the wash water.
How the smarkvash TMwash cycle works
When the smartwash TMcycle is selected, it saves energy and water by adjusting the wash cycle as needed.
Sensors detect the size of the dish load, the soil level, and the water temperature in the dishwasher.
Sensors automatically adjust the temperature and the amount of water used for the load.
How the TURBOZONE TMwash option works
When the TURBOZONETM option is selected, it provides a concentrated wash to a specific zone in the back of the lower dishrack for large, hard-to-clean dishes.
Spray jets on the TURBOZONETM manifold are periodically activated at the back of the tub throughout the wash cycle.
Intensified cleaning is provided only to this specific wash area, allowing you to gently clean the rest of the dish load.
START-UP GUIDE
Before using your dishwasher, remove all packaging materials. Read this entire Use and Care Guide. You will find important safety information and useful operating tips.
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 large food soil and hard items (toothpicks or bones) from 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. Push door firmly closed. The door latches automatically.
6. Run hot water at the sink nearest your dishwasher until the water is hot. (See "Dishwasher Efficiency Tips.") Turn off
water.
DISHWASHER LOADING
Remove leftover food, bones, toothpicks and other hard items from the dishes. To conserve water, energy and save time, it is not necessary to rinse dishes before putting them
into the dishwasher. NOTE: Dishes soiled with tomato-based products should be
prerinsed to avoid staining. The wash module removes food particles from the water. The
module contains a chopping device which will reduce the size of food items.
NOTE: 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.
For best drying, water must be able to drain from all surfaces.
It is important for the water spray to reach all soiled surfaces.
Load dishes so they are not stacked or overlapping if possible.
Use special care when loading heavy pots and pans. Heavy items can damage the interior of the door if they are dropped or bumped.
Make sure pot lids and handles, pizza pans, cookie sheets, etc., do not interfere with the spray arm rotation.
Conserve water, energy and save time over hand rinsing by running a rinse 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.
Place items so open ends face down for best cleaning and draining.
7.
Press the desired cycle and option selections. (See "Dishwasher Use.")
8=
Press START/RESUME, or press START/RESUME to repeat the same cycle and options as the previous cycle.
IMPORTANT: The Start/Resume light will flash if the door is opened during a cycle. Power interruptions during a cycle may also cause the Start/Resume light to flash. Press START/ RESUME to continue a cycle.

Quiet operating tips
To avoid 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.

DISHWASHER USE
The detergent dispenser has two sections. The smaller Pre-Wash
section empties detergent into the 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.")
A. Cover latch
B. Main Wash section
C. Pre-Wash section
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 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 Quick Rinse cycle.
Filling the dispenser
1. If the dispenser cover is closed, open the cover by moving the cover latch to the right.
2. Add the correct amount of detergent to the Main Wash section of the dispenser according to the chart below. If you are using a tablet detergent, it must be placed in the Main Wash section. (See "How much detergent to use.")
3. Add the correct amount of detergent to the Pre-Wash section of the dispenser, if needed, according to the chart below.
4. Close the dispenser cover.
It is normal for the cover to open partially when dispensing detergent.
NOTE: See the "Cycle Selection Charts" for which section to fill depending on the cycle selected.

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 prevent water from forming droplets that can dry as spots or streaks. Do not use a solid or bar-type rinse aid,
Rinse aid setting
The amount of rinse aid released into the final rinse can be adjusted. For most water conditions, the factory setting of 2 will
give good results. If you have hard water or notice rings or calcium spots on your glasses or dishes, try a higher setting.
Filling the dispenser
The rinse aid dispenser holds 5 oz (150 mL) of rinse aid. Under normal conditions, this will last for about 1 to 3 months.
1. Make sure the dishwasher door is fully open.
2. Turn the dispenser knob to "Open" and lift it out.

2. Turn the arrow adjuster inside the dispenser to the desired setting by either using your fingers or inserting a flat-blade screwdriver into the center of the arrow and turning.
3. Replace the dispenser knob.
Hot water dissolves and activates the dishwashing 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. Water that is too hot can make some soils harder to remove and cause certain detergent
ingredients not to function. Ifyour water heater is located far from the dishwasher, it may be necessary to run the hot water at the
faucet closest to the dishwasher to minimize the amount of cold water in the water line.
To check water temperature
1. Run hot water at the faucet closest to your dishwasher for at least 1 minute.
2. Place a candy or meat thermometer in a glass measuring cup.
55555S_
3. Check the temperature on the thermometer as the water is running into the cup.
To save water, energy and time, do not rinse dishes before putting them into the dishwasher.
Use a delay feature to run your dishwasher during off-peak hours. Local utilities 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.
13
Use cycles or options that add extra heat to the wash or rinse portion of the cycle only when needed.
If your home is equipped with a water softener, you may want to avoid starting the dishwasher during the regeneration of the softener, since this may contribute to poor wash performance.
Normal Wash
Use this cycle for loads with normal amounts of food soil. (The energy-usage label is based on this cycle.) During the wash cycle, the wash action will repeatedly pause for several
seconds.
Use both detergent dispenser sections.
Select the wash cycle and options desired. Or press START/ RESUME to use the same cycle and options as the previous cycle.
NOTE: If the last cycle you completed was a rinse cycle, the dishwasher will run the last full wash cycle and options that you selected when you press START/RESUME.
A "O" shows the steps that are in each cycle.
Water usage is shown in U.S. gallons/liters.
These models meet the ENERGY STAR®guidelines for energy
efficiency. IMPORTANT: These sensor-based cycles may take several
hours depending on cycle selected, water temperature, and soil level sensed.
Smart Wash
Use this cycle for all day-to-day soil types when washing full to partial dish loads. During the cycle, the sensors will determine
water temperature, wash time, and water amount based on the soil level and the dish load size. During the main wash, the wash
action will repeatedly pause for several seconds.
Use both detergent dispenser sections when
washing a full soiled dish load.
Use one detergent dispenser section when
washing lightly soiled, partial dish loads.

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.
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 house drain is clogged, the drain air gap protects
your dishwasher from water backing up into it.
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 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 "Spotting and filming on dishes" in "Troubleshooting."
NOTE: Run a normal cycle with detergent after cleaning the interior.
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-M¥-I-IOME _. 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. Follow the cleaning instructions provided by the
manufacturer. With most types, you lift off the chrome cover. Unscrew the plastic cap. Then check for any soil buildup. Clean if necessary.
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 due to
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.

dishwasher runs longer while heating water. Refer to the "Dishwasher Efficiency Tips" section.
A delay automatically occurs in some wash and rinse cycles until the water reaches the proper temperature.
Water remains in the dishwasher Is the cycle complete?
Detergent remains in the covered section of the
dispenser Is the cycle complete?
Is the detergent lump-free? Replace detergent if necessary. Is the bottom rack installed properly with the bumpers (on
some models) in the front? Refer to the "Parts and Features" section. Reinstall the rack if necessary.
White residue on the front of the access panel Was too much detergent used? Refer to the "Detergent

Bottom rack does not fully slide into the dishwasher
Food soil left on the dishes
of a service call...
Odor in the dishwasher
Are dishes washed only every 2 or 3 days? Run a rinse cycle once or twice a day until you have a full load.
Does the dishwasher have a new plastic smell? Run a vinegar rinse as described in the section "Spotting and filming on
dishes."
Condensation on the kitchen counter (built-in models)
Is the dishwasher aligned with the countertop? Moisture from the vent in the dishwasher console can form on the counter.
Refer to the Installation Instructions for more information.
Check to see if items loaded for TURBOZONETM wash option have shifted. Reload to keep items from interfering with spray jets or spray arm. (See "Loading Bottom Rack.")
Dishes are not completely clean
Is the dishwasher loaded correctly? Refer to the "Dishwasher Loading" section.
Is the water temperature too low? For best dishwashing results, water should be 120°F (49°C) as it enters the dishwasher. Refer to the "Dishwasher Efficiency Tips" section.
Did you use the correct amount of fresh detergent? Use recommended dishwasher detergents only. Refer to the "Detergent Dispenser" section. Detergent must be fresh to be effective. Store detergent in a cool, dry area. Heavy soil and/ or hard water generally require extra detergent.
Do you have hard water? You may need to increase the amount of detergent you are using. Refer to the "Detergent Dispenser" section. Also, you may need to switch to a detergent with a phosphorus content of 8.7%.
Is detergent caked in dispenser? Use fresh detergent only. Do not allow detergent to sit for several hours in a wet dispenser. Clean dispenser when caked detergent is present.
Is the pump or spray arm clogged by labels from bottles and cans?
Is the home water pressure high enough for proper dishwasher filling? Home water pressure should be 20 to 120 psi (138 to 828 kPa) for proper dishwasher fill. A booster pump on the water supply can be added if pressure is
too low. Are high suds slowing the wash arm? Do not use soap or
laundry detergents. Use recommended dishwasher detergents only.
19
Dishes in the TURBOZONETM wash area are not clean Are the dishes loaded to face the TURBOZONETM spray jets?
Load soiled dish surfaces to face the back of the dishwasher toward the TURBOZONETM spray jets. Tilt the dishes toward
the back so water can drain from surfaces, and the lower spray arm can wash the item from below.
NOTE: Loaded items may shift when dishracks are pushed into the dishwasher. Make sure dishes do not interfere with
the spray arms or water feed tubes. Are items loaded so they do not overlap? Load items only
one row deep without any overlap so that the TURBOZONETM spray jets can reach all surfaces.
Spots and stains on dishes
Spotting and filming on dishes Is your water hard or is there a high mineral content in your
water? Conditioning the final rinse water with a liquid rinse aid helps eliminate spotting and filming. Keep the rinse aid dispenser filled.
Is the water temperature too low? For best dishwashing results, water should be 120°F (49°C) as it enters the dishwasher. Refer to the "Dishwasher Efficiency Tips" section.
Did you use the correct amount of effective detergent? Use recommended dishwasher detergents only. Refer to the "Detergent Dispenser" section. Detergent must be fresh to be
effective. Store detergent in a cool, dry area. Heavy soil and/ or hard water generally require extra detergent.
Is the home water pressure high enough for proper dishwasher filling? Home water pressure should be 20 to 120 psi (138 to 828 kPa) for proper dishwasher fill. A booster pump on the water supply can be added if pressure is too
low. NOTE: To remove spots and film from dishes, try a white
vinegar rinse. This procedure is intended for occasional use only. Vinegar is an acid, and using it too often could damage your dishwasher.
1. Wash and rinse dishes. Use an air-dry or an energy saving
dry option. Remove all silverware or metal items.
2. Put 2 cups (500 mL) white vinegar in a glass or
dishwasher-safe measuring cup on the bottom rack.
3. Run the dishwasher through a complete washing cycle
using an air-dry option. Do not use detergent. Vinegar will mix with the wash water.
Silica film or etching (silica film is a milky, rainbow- colored deposit; etching is a cloudy film)
Sometimes there is a water/chemical reaction with certain types of glassware. This is usually caused by some
combination of soft or softened water, alkaline washing solutions, insufficient rinsing, overloading the dishwasher,
and the heat of drying. It might not be possible to prevent the problem, except by hand washing.
Toslow this process use a minimum amount of detergent per load. Refer to the "Detergent Dispenser" section. Use a liquid rinse aid and underload the dishwasher to allow thorough rinsing. Silica film and etching are permanent and cannot be removed. Do not use heated drying.
White spots on cookware with nonstick finish Has the dishwasher detergent removed cookware
seasoning? Reseason cookware after washing in the dishwasher.
Brown stains on dishes and dishwasher interior Does your water have high iron content? Rewash dishes
using 1-3 tsp (5-15 mL) of citric acid crystals added to the covered section of the detergent dispenser. Do not use detergent. Follow with a Normal wash cycle with detergent. If treatment is needed more often than every other month, the
installation of an iron removal unit is recommended.
Black or gray marks on dishes Are aluminum items rubbing dishes during washing?
Disposable aluminum items can break down in the dishwasher and cause marking. Hand wash these items. Remove aluminum markings by using a mild abrasive cleaner.
Orange stains on plastic dishes or dishwasher interior Are large amounts of tomato-based foods on dishes placed
in the dishwasher? Stains gradually fade over time. Regular use of heated drying will slow fading. Stains will not affect dishwasher performance. Regular use of a rinse cycle and an air-dry or energy-saving dry option will reduce the likelihood of staining.
Dishes do not dry completely
Dishes are not dry Did you load your dishwasher to allow proper water
drainage? Do not overload. Refer to the "Dishwasher Loading" section. Use a liquid rinse aid to speed drying.
Are the plastics wet? Plastics often need towel drying. Is the rinse aid dispenser empty? Refer to the "Rinse Aid
Dispenser" section. Did you use an air-dry option? Use a heated drying option for
dryer dishes.
Dishes are damaged during a cycle
Chipping of dishes Did you load the dishwasher properly? Load the dishes and
glasses so they are stable and do not strike together from washing action. Minimize chipping by moving the rack in and
out slowly. NOTE: Antiques, feather-edged crystal, and similar types of
china and glassware might be too delicate for automatic dishwashing. Wash by hand.
Noises
Grinding, grating, crunching or buzzing sounds A hard object has entered the wash module (on some
models). When the object is ground up, the sound should stop. If the noise persists after a complete cycle, call for
service.
Dishwasher exterior is dirty or marked
Marks, smudges or residue on dishwasher exterior Did you clean the dishwasher with a mild detergent and cloth
or use a stainless steel cleaner on models with a stainless steel 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 fresh and clean. If your dishwasher has a stainless steel exterior, a
stainless steel cleaner is recommended.
