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.

What’s New in Your Dishwasher
Energy
Congratulations on purchasing your waterand 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 pauses for exceptional cleaning. Your dishwasher contains an optical water sensor. The optical water sensor is used to determine the optimum water and energy consumption for great cleaning performance. Efficient dishwashers run longer to save water and energy, just as driving a car slower saves on gas. The first cycle using the sensor will run longer to calibrate the optical sensor.
Performance
Rinse Aid
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. The use of rinse aid greatly improves drying by allowing water to drain from the dishes after the final rinse. Rinse aid also keeps water from forming droplets that can dry as spots or streaks.
SLIDE
Detergent
The United States and Canada have passed restrictions limiting the amount of phosphorus (phosphates) in household dishwasher detergents to reduce the impact of detergents on our environment. Major manufacturers have reformulated their dishwasher detergent. With these recent changes it is recommended to use tablets and packs for convenience and improved performance.
SLIDE
Filtration System
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. We suggest you clean both your upper and lower filters and rinse under running water according to the chart in the Filtration System section. Maintenance of your filters regularly will sustain peak cleaning performance.

Start-Up/Quick Reference
Clean EQ Wash System removable filters to maintain peak performance
Cleaning the filters periodically helps to keep the dishwasher working at peak performance. The filters can be found at the bottom center of your dishwasher.
See “Filtration System” section for information on removing and maintaining the filters.
Drying – Rinse aid is essential
You must use a drying agent such as a rinse aid for good drying performance. Rinse aid along with the Heat Dry and Extended Heat Dry option will provide best drying and avoid excessive moisture in dishwasher interior.
Extended Heat Dry |
SLIDE |
For best drying use the Extended
Heated Dry option.
Express Wash – When you need fast results
Efficient dishwashers run longer to save water and energy, just as driving a car slower saves on gas. When you need fast results, the Express Wash will clean your
dishes using slightly more water and energy. Select the Heat Dry option to include automatic drying (adds approximately 38 to 45 minutes to the Express Wash cycle).
ProWash™ cycle for optimal cleaning
The most advanced and versatile cycle. ProWash™ cycle senses the soil amount and toughness of soil to adjust the cycle for optimal cleaning using only the amount of water and energy needed. The ProWash™ and Tough cycles are recommended
for tough soil. No need to pre-rinse dishes; just scrape leftover food into the trash or disposal and load.
Press Start/RESUME every time you add a dish
IMPORTANT: If anyone opens the door (such as, to add a dish, even during the Delay hours), the Start/ RESUME button must be pressed each time. Push door firmly closed within 4 seconds of pressing Start/RESUME. If the door is not closed within 4 seconds, the Start/ RESUME button LED will flash, an audible tone will be heard, and the cycle will not start.
Proper Detergent Dosing
We recommend quality tablets and packs for convenience and improved performance.
When using other forms of detergent, it is possible to use too much. This can lead to etching of your dishes. See “Add Detergent” in the Dishwasher Use section, to determine the amount of detergent needed based on soil level and water hardness.
Quick Steps
1 Remove bulk food and load dishwasher.
Scrape off excess food into garbage or food disposer.
Load dishes so that water spray will reach every surface.
2 Add detergent and rinse aid.

Dishwasher Use
STEP 1
Prepare and Load the Dishwasher
IMPORTANT: Remove leftover food, bones, toothpicks, and
other hard items from the dishes. Remove labels from containers before washing.
14-place load – upper rack |
14-place load – lower rack |
■■ Check that nothing blocks the upper or lower spray arm.
Items in rack can block the spray arms.
■■ Check that when the dishwasher door is closed, no items are blocking the detergent dispenser.
■■ Items should be loaded with soiled surfaces facing down and inward to the spray as shown in the graphics above. This will improve cleaning and drying results. Angle dirtiest dish surface downward, allowing space for water to flow up through rack and between dishes.
■■ Avoid overlapping items, like bowls or plates that may trap food.
■■ Place plastics, small plates, and glasses in upper rack. Wash only items marked “dishwasher safe.”
■■ To avoid thumping/clattering noises during operation, load dishes so they do not touch one another. Make sure lightweight load items are secured in racks.
■■ When loading silverware, always place sharp items pointing down. Mix items in each section of the basket with some pointing up and some down to avoid nesting. Spray cannot reach nested items.
■■ Use the slots in the covers and suggested loading patterns to keep your silverware separated for optimum wash.
STEP 2
Add Detergent
Premeasured Detergents
High-quality premeasured tablets and packs are
recommended for improved
performance. Quality tablets and packs have been proven better than powder, liquid, or gel
detergents at reducing filming on dishes. Using tablets and packs over time will start to reduce or eliminate white film. They are
suitable for all hardness and soil levels. Also, by using a
rinse aid, you can minimize repeat buildup of white film (not all packs and tablets contain rinse aid). Always place premeasured detergents in main compartment and close the lid.
NOTE: Follow instructions on the package when using other dishwasher detergent types or use the chart below for standard powdered detergents.
■■ Use automatic dishwasher detergent only. Add detergent just before starting a cycle.
■■ Fresh automatic dishwasher detergent results in better cleaning. Store tightly closed detergent container in a cool dry place.

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.
NOTE: Follow instructions on the package when using other dishwasher detergent types.
STEP 3
Add Rinse Aid
STEP 4
Select a Cycle
Efficient dishwashers run longer to save water and energy, just as driving a car slower saves gas. Cycle times may increase or decrease depending on selections. Estimated cycle times after calibration are listed in the “Cycle and Option Descriptions” chart in the following section. Select the desired cycle by pressing the Cycles button. Each time you press the Cycles button, it will advance to the next available cycle.
SLIDE
IMPORTANT: Your dishwasher is designed to use rinse aid. The use of rinse aid greatly improves drying by allowing water to drain from the dishes after the final rinse. Rinse aid also keeps 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 Full one to three months.
NOTE: Indicator reads correct fill level when door is completely opened.
1.To add rinse aid, open the rinse dispenser lid by gently pushing in the center of the lid with your thumb and pulling up on the edge.
2.Pour rinse aid into the opening until the dispenser is full. Do not overfill.

3.Clean up any spilled rinse aid.
Spilled rinse aid can create excessive suds.
4.Close the dispenser by pushing down gently on the lid.
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.
To adjust the setting:
Turn the arrow adjuster to a higher number to increase the amount of rinse aid.
If you change the setting only change it one number at a time and run a few cycles before changing it again. Too much rinse aid can reduce cleaning performance and too little may leave spots or rings.
Select Options
See the “Cycle and Option Descriptions” chart in the following section.
You can customize the cycles by selecting the options desired and pressing the Start/RESUME keypad.
STEP 5
Start or Resume a Cycle
■■ If needed, run hot water at the sink nearest your dishwasher until the water is hot. Turn off water.
■■ For best dish washing results, water should be 120ºF (49ºC) as it enters the dishwasher.
■■ Select the wash cycle and options desired. To repeat the same cycle and options used previously, press the Start/RESUME keypad twice. Within 4 seconds of pressing
Start/RESUME, you must firmly push the door closed. If the door is not closed within
4 seconds, the Start/RESUME LED will flash an audible tone will be heard, and the cycle will not start.
■■ You can add an item at the beginning of the cycle. Open the door slowly and add the item. Press the Start/RESUME keypad and close the door firmly within 4 seconds. If the door has been open more than 4 seconds, the LED will flash a tone will sound and the dishwasher will not resume unless you press Start/RESUME again.
IMPORTANT: If the door has been opened for more than a few seconds after the cycle has started (even during the Delay time), the Start/RESUME button must be pressed again or the cycle will not resume.
7
Cycle and Option Descriptions
Estimated cycle times may increase or decrease, depending on water temperature, soil conditions, dish load size, and options selected. You can customize your cycle by selecting an option.
See option selections. If you change your mind, press the option again to turn off the option or select a different option. You can change an option any time before the selected option begins. At each stage of the wash cycle, you may hear noises that you are not used to hearing in your previous dishwasher. Each cycle will provide a series of pauses and water sprays throughout the wash cycle. This is normal and will provide optimal cleaning performance.
CYCLE SELECTIONS
IMPORTANT: The sensor in your dishwasher monitors the soil level. Cycle time and/or water usage can vary as the sensor adjusts the cycle for the best wash performance. If the incoming water is less than the recommended temperature or food soils are heavy, the cycle will automatically compensate by adding time, heat, and water as needed.

Dishwasher Features
Silverware Basket
Silverware basket lids:
Use silverware basket lids to provide optimal spacing and best cleaning performance.
NOTE: If your silverware does not fit into the designated slots, push tabs inward on either end and lift lid off of the silverware baskets. Mix silverware types to keep them separated. Load knives down, forks up, and alternate spoons for best cleaning results.
Cup Shelves
Fold down the extra shelf on the right-hand side of the top rack to hold additional cups, stemware, or long items such as utensils and spatulas. For best results on cups, stagger the spacing so that the cups on the shelf are not directly above the cups below.
Premium Adjustable 2-Position Top Rack
You can raise or lower the top rack to fit tall items in either the top or bottom rack. Adjusters are located on each side of the top rack.
To raise the rack:
Press both rack adjuster thumb levers and lift the rack until it is in the up position and level.
To lower the rack:
Press both rack adjuster thumb levers and slide the rack to its down position
and level.
NOTE: The top rack must be level.
Removable Top Rack
The removable top rack allows you to wash larger items such as pots, roasters, and cookie sheets in the
bottom rack.
IMPORTANT: Remove dishes prior to removing the top rack from the dishwasher.
To remove the rack:
To gain access to the removable tabs on the tracks/rails, pull the upper rack forward about halfway out of the tub.
On one side, press the tab on the track in and pull up the front end of the rack, out of the track. Then repeat this step on the other side to completely remove the front end of the rack. Then remove the rack by pulling the back end out using a forward and upward motion.
To replace the rack:
Pull the tracks forward about halfway out of the tub.
Along the sides of the racks are round attachment tabs. Align the rack’s back end attachment tabs with the cutout in the track. Push down into place.
Pull the tracks completely out, and align the rack’s front end attachment tabs with the cutout in the track. Push down into place. You will hear a snap when the front end of the rack is secured into place on each side.

Filtration System
Your dishwasher has the latest technology in dishwasher filtration. This filtration system minimizes sound and optimizes water and energy conservation while providing superior cleaning.
The filter system consists of two parts, an upper filter assembly and a lower filter.
IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to dishwasher, do not operate your dishwasher without filters properly installed. Be sure lower filter is securely in place and upper filter assembly is locked into place. If upper assembly turns freely, it is not locked into place.
The filters may need to be cleaned when:
■■ Visible objects or soils are on the upper filter assembly. ■■ Dishes feel gritty to the touch.

*Scrape excess food into the trash or food disposer prior to loading the dishwasher. We recommend this practice because it will conserve the water and energy that you would have used to prepare 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. Buildup of white residue on your dishwasher indicates hard water. For tips on removing spots and stains, see the “Troubleshooting” section.
Filter Removal Instructions
1.Turn the upper filter assembly a quarter turn counterclockwise and lift out.

Dishwasher Care
Cleaning the Exterior
Clean the exterior of dishwasher with a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent. If your dishwasher has a stainless steel exterior, it has a coating that is resistant to fingerprints. Avoid using abrasive cleaning products on the exterior of the dishwasher.
Cleaning and Maintaining the Interior
Many detergents may leave white spots or a white residue on dishware and on the interior of the dishwasher. Over time this residue can become unsightly and could affect dishwasher performance. Use of a dishwasher cleaning product such as affresh®† Dishwasher Cleaner can help to remove the residue. Monthly use of affresh®† Dishwasher Cleaner is recommended to help maintain the dishwasher.
To Use:
1.If cleaning without dishes, place one tablet in the detergent dispenser. Do not add detergent (If significant buildup is noticeable, a second tablet can be placed in the bottom of the dishwasher.)
2.If cleaning with dishes, place one tablet in the bottom of the dishwasher. Place detergent in the dispenser.
3.Run a Normal wash cycle.
Another method to remove white residue is to use a vinegar rinse. However, vinegar is an acid and using it too often could damage your dishwasher.
Place (do not pour), 2 cups (500 mL) white vinegar in a glass or dishwasher-safe measuring cup on the bottom rack. Run the dishwasher through a complete washing cycle using an air-dry or an energy-saving dry option. Do not use detergent. Vinegar will mix with the wash water.
NOTE: KitchenAid® recommends the use of high-quality, premeasured detergent tablets or packs and the use of rinse aid for dishwasher cleaning and daily care.
If you have a drain air gap, check and clean it if the dishwasher isn’t draining well.
To Reduce Risk of Property Damage During Vacation or Extended Time Without Use
■■ When 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 line scan increase water pressure and cause damage to 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.

PROBLEM |
SOLUTION |
|
|
DISHWASHER DOES NOT RUN |
NOTE: It is normal for the dishwasher to repeatedly pause several times during a cycle. |
|
If the Start/RESUME light is blinking, press Start/RESUME and close the door within 4 |
|
seconds. |
|
Be sure the door is closed and latched. |
|
■■ Check that there is not an interference between large casserole dishes and the wash |
|
system at the back of the dishwasher. |
|
■■ Check to see if any items are protruding through the bottom or back of the rack. Also |
|
check to see if tall items are hitting the upper rack or spray arm. Adjust loading as |
|
necessary to ensure door is closed and latched. |
|
Press the Start/RESUME or Cancel keypads or open and close the door before selecting |
|
your cycle/option. Controls must be awakened after a period of inactivity. |
|
Be sure the Control/Lock feature is not on. If the control lock indicator is lit, press and |
|
hold Sani Rince for 3 seconds. The Control Lock LED will turn off and you can then |
|
operate the controls. |
|
Be sure you have selected a cycle. See “Cycle and Option Descriptions” section. |
|
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. If the numeric display shows a code “F2E2” you will need to call for service. |
DETERGENT REMAINS IN THE |
Check for dishware, such as cookie sheets, cutting boards, or large containers, etc., that |
DISPENSER OR TABLET IS ON |
may be blocking the detergent dispenser from opening properly. |
BOTTOM OF TUB |
Be sure your detergent is fresh and lump-free. |
|
|
|
Be sure the cycle has completed (the Clean light is on). If it has not completed, you will |
|
need to resume the cycle by closing the door and pressing Start/RESUME. |
CYCLE RUNS TOO LONG |
NOTES: |
|
■■ 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 (49°C) is best the dishwasher will delay longer while |
|
heating cooler water. |
|
■■ Some options will add time to the cycle. See the “Cycle and Option Descriptions” |
|
section. The Heat Dry or Extended Heat Dry option adds approximately 45 minutes. |
|
Try the Express Wash cycle. |
|
Run the hot water at a faucet close to the dishwasher before starting the cycle. |
|
|
DISHWASHER NOT DRYING |
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 Heat Dry or Extended Heat 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. |
|
|
WILL NOT FILL |
Be sure the water to the dishwasher is turned on. |
|
Check that the overfill protection float is free from obstructions. See the “Parts and |
|
Features” section. |
|
Check for suds in the dishwasher. If foam or suds are detected, the dishwasher may not |
|
operate properly or may not fill with water. See “Blinking Lights” in the “Troubleshooting” |
|
section. |

TUB/WILL NOT DRAIN |
resume the cycle by pressing Start/RESUME and closing the door within 4 seconds. |
|
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. |
|
|
HARD WATER (WHITE RESIDUE |
NOTE: Extremely hard water mineral deposits can cause damage to your dishwasher and |
ON DISHWASHER INTERIOR OR |
make it difficult to achieve good cleaning. A water softener is strongly recommended if your |
GLASSWARE) |
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 upper and lower filters at least once per month. See “Cleaning Instructions” in the |
|
“Filtration System” section. |
|
Always use a rinse aid. Always use a high-quality, fresh detergent. |
|
Use a detergent booster/water softener additive designed for dishwashers. |
|
|
ODORS |
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. |
|
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 Heat Dry or |
|
ProDry™ option turned off. Do not use detergent. |
|
The dishwasher may not be draining properly, see “Water Remains In The Tub/Will Not |
|
Drain” in the “Troubleshooting” section. |
NOISY |
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. |
FOOD SOILS REMAIN ON DISHES |
Be sure the dishwasher is loaded correctly. Improper loading can greatly decrease the |
|
washing performance. See the “Dishwasher Use” section. |
|
Check filter to ensure it is properly installed. Clean it if needed. See “Cleaning Instructions” |
|
in the “Filtration System” section for details. |
|
Select the proper cycle and option for the type of soils. The Tough cycle with the Hi-Temp |
|
Wash 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). |
DISHES DIRTY/SUDS IN |
If foam or suds are detected by the dishwasher sensing system, the dishwasher may not |
DISHWASHER/CYCLE NOT |
operate properly or may not fill with water. |
COMPLETE |
Suds can come from: |
|
|
|
■■ Using the incorrect type of detergent, such as dish detergent for hand washing dishes, |
|
laundry detergent, or hand soap. |
|
■■ Not replacing the rinse aid dispenser cap after filling (or refilling) the rinse aid. |
|
■■ Using an excessive amount of dishwasher detergent. |
|
■■ Inadequately rinsing off detergent from dishes washed by hand before loading them into |
|
the dishwasher. |
|
Call for service. |
|
If no water was present in the machine at any time during a heated wash cycle, the cycle |
|
will end and the Clean indicator will not come on. See “Will Not Fill” in the “Troubleshooting” |
|
section. |
DID NOT SANITIZE |
If the Sanitized light is blinking, the load is NOT sanitized. The cycle was interrupted in the |
|
final rinse or the temperature for your water heater is set too low. Set your water heater to |
|
120ºF (49°C). |
DAMAGE TO DISHWARE |
Improper loading can cause dishes to become chipped or damaged. (See specific loading |
|
instructions within this guide.) |
15
PROBLEM |
SOLUTION |
|
|
BLINKING LIGHTS |
Blinking indicators will occur when the cycle is paused or when the cycle has been |
|
interrupted by opening the door. If the Start/Resume light is blinking, press the |
|
Start/RESUME keypad and close the door within 4 seconds. |
|
See “Start or RESUME a Cycle” in the “Dishwasher Use” section. |
|
If the Clean light or any other lights are blinking and the dishwasher will not run, call for |
|
service. |
CLOUDY OR SPOTTED |
Add or adjust the amount of liquid rinse aid for better drying and to reduce spotting. See the |
DISHWARE (AND HARD WATER |
“Detergent and Rinse Aid” section. |
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 the |
|
“Troubleshooting” section. 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 Hi Temp Wash 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 Heat Dry option turned off. No detergent is |
|
needed. |
ETCHING (PERMANENT |
This is an erosion of the surface of the glassware and can be caused by a combination of |
CLOUDINESS) |
water that is too hot, using too much detergent with soft water, or 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 |
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. |
TUB IS DISCOLORED |
High iron content in the water can discolor the tub. |
|
Tomato-based foods can discolor the tub or dishware. Large amounts of tomato-based |
|
foods should be removed from the dishes before loading. |
|
A citrus-based cleaner can be used to clean. |
