instructions.
follow
■
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.
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
■
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.
■
Refer to Installation Instructions for instructions pertaining
to grounding.

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.
NOTE: Each drawer has its own control panel and can run independently of the other.
Using Your New Dishwasher
1. Rinse aid is essential for good drying. Be sure to fill the rinse
aid dispenser before you use your new dishwasher. Each
filling will last about 1 to 2 months depending on your usage.
(See “Rinse Aid Dispenser.”)
2. Scrape large food soil and hard items (toothpicks or bones)
from dishes.
3. Check drain filter and spray arm. (See “Cleaning.”) Ensure the
drain filter is flush with the filter plate, and the spray arm can
rotate about the center easily.
ABC
A. Spray arm
B. Filter plate
C. Drain filter
4. Properly load the dishwasher. (See “Dishwasher Loading.”)
Load dishes with space in between so water will reach the
soiled surfaces. Make sure nothing keeps the spray arm(s)
from spinning freely.
6. Run hot water at the sink until the water is hot. (See
“Performance Tips.”) Turn off water.
7. Press the Power pad on the front of the drawer to turn the
dishwasher on or off. When the drawer is opened, the
dishwasher will automatically power up for 30 seconds even
if the Power pad has not been pressed. If no program
selection is made, it will power off again.
8. Press the (Cycle Select) or the HI TEMP pad on the top of
the drawer opening to select the desired wash cycle.
Continue to press the (Cycle Select) or the HI TEMP pad, and
the indicators will progress through the different cycles until
the desired cycle is selected. The next time you use the
dishwasher, it will remember the last cycle used. (See “Wash
Cycles.”)

9. Push drawer firmly closed. Press the Start/Resume button on
the front of the drawer to start the wash cycle.
5. Add powdered detergent. Always use a high quality brand
detergent. (See “Dishwasher Use.”)
IMPORTANT: Only use powdered detergent recommended
for dishwashers. Do not use liquid or tablet detergents. Wash
performance could be negatively impacted if you use
anything other than powdered detergent.
NOTES:
■ If the dishwasher is operating and a power failure occurs,
it will stop. You may not be able to open the drawer at this
time. When the power supply is resumed, the dishwasher
will start in the same part of the wash cycle.
■ To end the wash cycle in mid-cycle, press the Power pad.
Any water in the drawer will be pumped out.
10. The dishwasher will beep 6 times to indicate the end of the
wash cycle. At the end of the wash cycle, the drying fan will
continue to run for a set time or until the drawer is opened.
The fan assists with drying and uses small amounts of energy.
NOTE: It is normal for some water to remain in the drain filter
area after the wash cycle is complete.

Was h Sy st em
The wash system provides excellent cleaning results. Two levels
of filtration filter the wash water and keep food particles from
redepositing on the clean dishes.
■ A filter plate keeps bones, pits, and other large objects from
entering the pump system.
■ Items small enough to pass through the filter plate are caught
in the drain filter.
■ The wash water continuously flows through the drain filter,
trapping food particles.
DISHWASHER LOADING
Loading Suggestions
■ 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.
■ 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, water must be able to drain from all
surfaces.
■ Use special care when loading heavy pots and pans. Heavy
items can damage the interior of the drawer if they are
dropped or bumped.
■ Make sure pot lids and handles, 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.
IMPORTANT: Before each wash load, check the drain filter for
evidence of food particles and clean. (A small amount of water
will remain in the drain filter area.) Food scraps may collect on the
filter plate, and the spray arm and filter plate may need cleaning.
The spray arm and filter plate may need cleaning about once a
month in normal use or more often, should the need arise. (See
“Cleaning the Spray Arm, Drain Filter and Filter Plate” in
“Cleaning” section.)
Sound System
The WHISPER QUIET® sound insulation system helps to maintain
a quiet home environment during dishwasher operation.
NOTE: If you do not load dishes properly, the quiet operation of
your dishwasher could be affected. (See “Dishwasher Loading.”)
Drying System
At the end of the selected wash cycle, the drying fan will continue
to run for a set time or until the drawer is opened. The fan assists
with drying and uses a small amount of energy.
IMPORTANT: Do not load anything above the inside top edge of
the drawer as it may keep the drawer lid from properly closing.

Quiet operating tips
To avoid thumping/clattering noises during operation:
■ Make sure lightweight load items are secured in the rack.
■ Make sure pot lids and handles, etc., do not touch interior
walls or interfere with the rotation of the spray arm.
■ Load dishes so they do not touch one another.
Loading Rack
NOTE: If the rack is incorrectly placed in the drawer, the rack can
block the spray arm rotation. The rack is properly installed if it is
sitting flat on the bottom of the drawer.
The rack is designed for cups, glasses, plates, pans, casseroles
and utensils. Many items, up to 11" (28.38 cm), fit in the rack.
(See recommended loading patterns shown.)

Fold-Down Cup Shelves
Fold down the cup shelves on the sides of the drawer to hold
additional cups, stemware or long items such as utensils and
spatulas. Fold up when you need room for larger items in the
main rack.
SURE-HOLD® light item clips
The light item clips hold lightweight plastic items such as cups,
lids, or bowls in place during washing.
To move a clip
1. Pull the clip up and off the tine.
2. Reposition the clip on another tine.
SURE-HOLD® base rack and removable rack inserts
The SURE-HOLD® removable rack inserts (see illustration below)
allow you to adjust the rack for the type of load you are washing.
You can remove one or more of the inserts to customize the rack
for a particular load. This is useful when washing a variety of
dishes, pots and pans, or roasters.
■ Place items so open ends face down for cleaning and
draining.
■ China, crystal, and other delicate items must not touch each
other during dishwasher operation. Damage may occur.
■ Load small items in the rack only if they are secured in place.
■ Load plastic items so the force of the spray does not move
them during the cycle. Only plastic items marked
“dishwasher safe” are recommended.
■ To avoid chipping, do not let stemware touch other items.
■ Small bowls, pans, and other utensils can be placed in the
rack.
■ Load plates, soup bowls, etc., between tines.
■ Overlap the edges of plates for large loads.
■ Load soup, cereal, and serving bowls in the rack in a variety
of ways depending upon their size and shape. Load bowls
securely between the rows of tines. Do not nest bowls
because the spray will not reach all surfaces.
■ Load cake pans and other large items at the sides and back.
Loading such items in front can keep the water spray from
reaching the rinse aid dispenser.
■ Secure heavily soiled cookware face down in the rack.
NOTE: The removable inserts are not designed to be lifted out of
the drawer while loaded with dishes.

The detergent and rinse aid dispenser is located on the front
inside wall of the drawer. The detergent dispenser has two
sections, the pre wash section is the smaller and the other is for
the main wash detergent. The pre wash and main wash sections
both have inside fill line markings. The pre wash section has one
marking which represents 1 tsp (5 mL). When it is full, it holds
2 tsp (10 mL). The main wash section has two markings, the
lowest mark indicates 2 tsp (10 mL), the middle mark 4 tsp
(20 mL), and when it is full it contains 6 tsp (30 mL).
NOTE: The detergent dispenser is designed for use with
powdered detergent. Liquid and tablet detergents are not
suitable to be used in the dispenser. (Posts inside dispenser are a
reminder not to use detergent tablets.)

■ Add detergent just before starting a cycle.
■ Store tightly closed detergent in a cool, dry place. Using
fresh, automatic dishwasher detergent results in better
cleaning.
NOTE: Do not use detergent with a rinse cycle.

NOTES:
■ Do not load silver or silver-plated silverware with stainless
steel. These metals 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.
■ Check the bottom of the silverware basket to ensure items
have not come through as they may stop spray arm rotation.
How much powdered detergent to use
■ The detergent quantities suggested in the chart are for
individual drawer 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 will not be clean. If you use too much in soft water,
glassware will etch.
■ Water hardness can change over a period of time. Find out
your water’s hardness by asking your local water department,
water softener company, or county extension agent.
■ You can order, at no charge, a water hardness test strip. In
the U.S.A., call the Customer eXperience Center and ask for
Part Number 4171690. (See “Assistance or Service.”)
■ Different brands of dishwasher detergent have different
amounts of phosphorus 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%.

Rinse Aid Dispenser
B
C
The regular use of liquid rinse aid gives the best drying results.
Rinse aids keep water from forming droplets that can dry as
spots or streaks. They also help keep metal from tarnishing. They
improve drying by allowing water to drain off of the dishes during
the final rinse. Your dishwasher is designed to use a liquid rinse
aid. Do not use a solid or bar-type rinse aid.
The rinse aid dispenser is located on the front inside of the
drawer underneath the detergent dispenser.
A
A. Rinse aid plug
B. Rinse aid indicator light
C. Rinse aid dispenser
How much rinse aid to use
The regulator may need adjusting to suit your water conditions.
The lowest setting is “1” and the highest is “5.” For hard water,
the rinse aid dispenser should be used with its setting fixed at 5.
(See “Option Selections and Adjustments” section.)
NOTE: If there is excessive foam at the end of the wash, reduce
the rinse aid dispenser setting. If dishes are wet or streaky after
drying, increase the rinse aid dispenser setting.
Filling the rinse aid dispenser
The rinse aid dispenser holds 1.7 oz (50.28 mL) of rinse aid.
Under normal conditions, this will last for about 1 to 2 months.
Try to keep it full, but be sure not to overfill it.
1. Turn the plug counterclockwise and remove.
2. Pour the rinse aid into the circular opening.
3. Take care not to spill rinse aid into the drawer. Any spills must
be wiped up to avoid excess foaming.
4. Fit the plug back into the original position.
Performance Tips
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. If your 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.
3. Check the temperature on the thermometer as the water is
running into the cup.
Additional efficiency tips
■ To save water, energy and time, do not rinse dishes before
putting them into the dishwasher.
■ Choose the cycle that describes the most difficult soil on your
dish load.
■ Do not worry about mixed loads. Any item that is dishwasher
safe can be washed using any cycle. (See “NOTES:” in the
“Loading Silverware Basket” section.)
■ 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. (See “Option Selections and
Adjustments.”)
■ Use a rinse aid to improve drying.
■ Use cycles or options that add extra heat to the wash or rinse
portion of the cycle for better performance.
■ Run your dishwasher with full loads. Run a rinse cycle after
meals until the dishwasher is full.
■ 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.
Rinse aid indicator
If the rinse aid indicator light is red, refill the dispenser. If the rinse
aid indicator light is not lit, there is enough rinse aid for the wash.
You do not have to wait until the dispenser is empty to refill.
