START-UP
Before using your dishwasher, remove all packaging materials. Read this entire Consumer Reference Guide, as well as the User
Instructions. You will find important safety information and useful operating tips.
Using Your Dishwasher
1. 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.
5. Run hot water at the sink nearest your dishwasher until the
water is hot. Turn off water.
2. Scrape large food soil and hard items (toothpicks or bones)
from dishes. You do not need to prerinse your dishes.
3. Properly load the dishwasher. (See “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.
4. Add detergent. Always use a high-quality brand detergent.
(See “Dishwasher Use” in the User Instructions.)

selecting the cycle and options, it will revert to the last cycle

draining.
■ Load glasses and cups in top rack only. The bottom rack is
not designed for glasses and cups. Damage can occur.
■ Place cups and glasses in the rows between tines. Placing
them over the tines can lead to breakage and water spots.
SURE-HOLD® light item clips
The light item clips hold lightweight plastic items such as cups,
lids, or bowls in place during washing.
Cup and glass load
■ China, crystal, and other delicate items must not touch each
other during dishwasher operation. Damage may occur.
■ Load plastic items in the top rack only. Only plastic items
marked “dishwasher safe” are recommended.
■ Load plastic items so the force of the spray does not move
them during the cycle.
■ To avoid chipping, do not let stemware touch other items.
■ Small bowls, pans, and other utensils can be placed in the top
rack. Load bowls in the center section for best stability.
FLEXI-FOLD DOWN™ flexible tines

both the top and bottom racks. Adjusters are located on each side

■ Make sure pot handles and other items do not stop rotation of
the spray arm(s). The spray arm(s) must move freely.

the dishwasher tub because they might block the water inlet
opening.
