Your safety is important to us.

This guide contains safety symbols and statements. Please pay special attention to

these symbols and follow any instructions given. Here is a brief explanation of the use

of the symbol.

This symbol alerts you to hazards such as fire, electrical shock, or

other injuries.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARN ING - When using the dish- •

washer, 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 recom- mended for use in the 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

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 compart- ment when removing an old dishwasher

from service or discarding it. For a grounded, cord connected dishwasher:.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

The dishwasher must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown,

grounding will reduce the risk of electrical shock by providing a path of least resist-

ance 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 - Improperconnection of the

equipment-grounding conductor can result

in a risk of electrical shock. Check with a

qualified electrician or service representa- tive if you are in doubt whether the

dishwasher is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the dish- washer; if it will not fit the outlet, have

a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

For a permanently connected dishwasher:

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

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.

2. Spin the upper spray arm. It should turn freely. Check the

lower spray arm also to make sure

it turns freely.

3. Add detergent. See pages 13-14.

4. Add rinse agent if needed. See page 15.

6. Press the desired Wash Selection pad. See the "Cycle selection chart" on page 16.

Then press the desired Option(s) pad(s). See

page 17 for "Option selections".

7. Run hot water at sink nearest dishwasher untilwater is hot.

Turn off water.

See page 20.

8. Press the Start pad. The cycle will begin (if Delay Hours has not

been selected). NOTE: The dishwasher

This section tells you how to properly load your dishwasher for the best washing and rinsing results.

Preparing to load the dishwasher

Scrape leftover food, bones, toothpicks, and other hard items from dishes. It is not

necessary to rinse dishes before putting them into the dishwasher.

• Load dishes so soiled surfaces face the spray (down or inward). It is important for

the water spray to reach all soiled surfaces.

• Take care when loading heavy pots or pans into the dishwasher. They can dent the

stainless steel interior of the door if they are dropped or bumped.

Loading the upper rack

The upper rack is designed for cups, glasses, and other small items.

• Load cups and glasses in the upper rack only, in the rows between the prongs.

Placing them over the prongs can cause

them to chip or break.

• China, crystal, and other delicate items must not touch each other during dish-

washer operation. Damage may occur.

• Place items so open ends face down for best cleaning and draining.

• Load plastic items securely in the upper rack only. Wash only plastic items marked

"dishwasher safe".

• Secure lightweight items so they don't

overturn during washing. Wedge light- weight items against one another or overlap them with heavier dishes. (See

page 9 on using the Sure-Hold clips.)

• Load bowls in the center section for best stability.

• Racks with teal-colored tips can be

adjusted for different loads.

• Make sure pot lids and handles, pizza pans, cookie sheets, etc., do not touch

interior walls or interfere with the spray arm rotation.

• Run a Rinse Only cycle to keep dishes moist if you do not plan to wash them soon. Foods like eggs, rice, pasta, spinach, and

cooked cereals may be hard to remove if they are left to dry.

Cupand glass load

Mixed load

Loading the upper rack (cont.)

Sure-Hold cup shelf

Fold down the extra shelf on the top rack to hold additional cups and glasses or small

items like long utensils and spatulas.

Stemware holders

Use the stemware holders (attached to the cup shelf) to keep water goblets, wine

glasses, etc., in place and prevent damage during washing.

Cup shelf

Stemwareholder

Sure-Hold clips

The Sure-Hold clips hold lightweight plastic items like cups, lids, or bowls in place during

washing. Move a clip anywhere in the rack

by pulling it up and off the tine and reposi-

tioning it in another tine.

Sure-Hold clip

Loading the lower rack

The lower rack is designed for plates, pans, casseroles, and utensils.

• Load items with cooked-on or dried-on food in the lower rack with soiled surfaces facing

in toward the spray.

• For maximum capacity and stability of an all plate load, stagger or overlap small

plates with large ones.

• Load plates side to side along with pots, pans, and large cookware, as shown.

• Racks with teal-colored tips can be adjusted for different 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 prongs. Do not nest bowls because the spray won't reach their

surfaces.

• Do not put small items in the lower rack if they are not secured in place.

• Do not load items between the bottom rack

and the side of the dishwasher tub. This

can block the water inlet opening.

Utensil load

Sure-Hold cup shelf

Fold down the extra shelf on the left side of the lower rack to hold small items such as cups or utensils.

Mixed load

Loading the silverware basket

• Load the silverware basket while it is in the lower rack or take the basket out for

loading on a counter or table.

,, Mix items in each section of the basket -

some pointing up and some down. iMPORTANT: Always load sharp items

(knives, skewers, forks, etc.) pointing down.

,, Place small items like baby bottle caps, jar

lids, corn cob holders, etc., in the end sections with the hinged covers. Close the

covers over the sections to hold small items in place.

• Load forks and spoons so they don't nest together. Water spray cannot reach

nested items.

The silverware basket can also be removed

for easy unloading. Unload or remove the basket before unloading the upper rack to avoid spilling water droplets on the

silverware.

NOTES:

Don't load silver or silver-plated silverware

with stainless steel. These metals can be

damaged by contact with one another during washing.

Some foods (such as salt, vinegar, milk products, fruit juices, etc.) can pit or corrode

silverware if left on for long periods of time. Use the Rinse Only cycle when silverware

is not washed immediately after use.

Using the detergent dispenser

What type of detergent _o use

Use automatic dishwasher detergent only.

NOTE: Never use soap, hand-dishwashing detergent, or laundry detergent. These products will produce excessive suds which

could cause flooding and reduce washing

performance.

Follow manufacturer's instructions when

using powdered, liquid, or gel dishwasher detergents. Concentrated (Ultra) powdered

detergents usually call for lower usage than do standard powdered detergents.

,, Add detergent to the dispenser just before

starting the dishwasher.

,, Keep detergent container tightly closed in a

cool, dry place, out of the reach of children. After opening, a box of detergent should stay fresh for about one month. Detergent exposed to moisture over a period of time

might become caked and ineffective.

How much detergent to use

WATER HARDNESS

Soft to Medium Hard Water

0-6 grains per gallon

Medium to Hard Water

7-12 grains per gallon

Different brands of dishwasher detergent have different amounts of phosphorus for

softening water. If you have hard water and use adetergent with a phosphorous content

of less than 8.7%, you may need to use more detergent, or use a detergent with a

phosphorous content higher than 8.7%.

AMOUNT OFDETERGENT

For normal loads:

Partially fill the Main Wash section (2 tablespoons or

30 grams)

Fillthe Prewash section (2 tablespoons or 30 grams)

NOTE: Add only 1 tablespoon or 15 grams of deter-

gent to the Prewash section if dishes are prerinsed or water is very soft.

For heavily soiled loads:

• Fill the Main Wash section (3 tablespoons or 45 grams)

Fill the Prewash section (2 tablespoons or 30 grams)

= Fill the Main Wash section (3 tablespoons or 45 grams) = Fillthe Prewash section (2 tablespoons or 30 grams)

,, Excessive amounts of detergent combined

with soft water may cause etching of glassware.

NOTE: Water hardness may change over a period of time. Contact your local water utility or area water softening company to determine

your water hardness, or order water hardness test strip part number 4171690 through the

Consumer Assistance Center.

Using the rinse agent dispenser

A rinse agent prevents water from forming droplets that can dry as spots or streaks. It

also improves drying by allowing water to drain off of the dishes during the final rinse

by releasing a small amount of the rinse agent into the rinse water. Your dishwasher is designed to use a liquid rinse agent. Do not use a solid or bar-type rinse agent.

Filting the dispenser

The rinse agent dispenser holds 5.2 fluid ounces of rinse agent. Under normal

conditions, this will last for about three months. You do not have to wait until the

dispenser is empty to refill it. Try to keep it

full, but be careful not to overfill it.

1. Make sure the dishwasher door is fully open.

2. Turn the dispenser knob to Open and lift

it out.

3. Add rinse agent until the indicator window

looks full. Ifyou overfill, the excess rinse agent may overflow the dispenser and

cause oversudsing during the wash cycle.

4. Clean up any spilled rinse agent with a damp cloth.

5. Replace the dispenser knob and turn it to Closed.

Indicator Dispenser

window knob

Rinse agent set:ring

The amount of rinse agent released into the final wash can be adjusted. The factory

setting is at 2. For most water conditions set the adjuster to 1 or 2. If there are rings or calcium (hard water) spots on dishes, try a

higher setting (4, 5, or 6). To adjust setting

Remove the dispenser knob, then turn the adjuster inside the dispenser to the desired setting.

Quiet operating tips

To avoid thumping and clattering noises during operation:

+ Make sure lightweight load items are

secured in the rack.

+ Make sure pot lids and handles, pizza

pans, cookie sheets, etc., do not touch the dishwasher sides or interfere with the

spray arm rotation.

+ Where possible, load items so they de not

touch one another.

NOTE: Keep sink drain plugs inserted during

dishwasher operation to prevent noise trans- fer through drains.

Norma operating sounds

Some normal sounds you might hear while

the dishwasher is running:

+ The fill valve opening or closing and the

sound of water entering the dishwasher.

o Items being ground up in the food disposer. * Wash/rinse action of water spray. To

minimize noise of water circulating on dishes, see "Loading your dishwasher",

on pages 8 to 11.

• Water being pumped out during drain portion of a cycle.

• Detergent cup opening.

• Pump motor starting.

Energy saving tips

'_Set your home water heater to provide a

minimum of 120°F (49°C) incoming water

to the dishwasher.

To check water temperature:

1+Run hot water at the faucet closest to your

dishwasher. Set a cup under the faucet and place a candy or meat thermometer

in it.

2. Run hot water for at least one minute into

overflow. Check the tempera- ture. If the water temperature

the cup, allowing the water to

is below 120°F (49°C), have a qualified person raise the

thermostat setting on your water heater.

+ Run the dishwasher only with a full load. + Use only the cycle and options that you need. + Run the dishwasher during off-peak hours if

your utility company offers reduced rates on electricity during specific times of day.

+ Run the dishwasher at night during the

summer to reduce daytime heat buildup in your home.

+ Do not rinse dishes before loading. + Use the Energy Saver Dry option.

Your new dishwasher is designed to give you many years of dependable service. However, there are a few things you are expected to do to maintain your dish-

washer properly. This section tells you how to clean and care for your dishwasher.

HYDROSWEEP* wash system

The HYDROSWEEP Wash System in your dishwasher provides excellent cleaning

results. The wash water is continuously filtered by a triple filtration and soil collector

system to prevent food particles from redepositing on clean dishes.

The filter

The filter continuously filters the wash water and traps the food particles that have been removed from the dishes. A small amount of

water will always remain under the filter to keep the pump seal moist.

The water iets

The food particles are removed from the Ultra-Fine filter by 2 water jets that are located underneath the 4-way

HYDROSWEEP arm.

The coarse strainer

A coarse strainer will prevent bones, pits, and other large objects from entering the

pump system. You should periodically check the strainer for such items that may have

mistakenly entered the dishwasher.

4-way HYDROSWEEP

Coarse strainer

(not removable)

Overflow protection float

The overflow protection float in the front right corner of the dishwasher tank prevents the

dishwasher from overflowing. The float must be in place for the dishwasher to operate. Check under the float for objects that may

prevent the float from moving up or down.
