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.
For all models:
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.
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.)
NOTE: If the dishwasher is not started within 30 seconds after selecting the cycle and options, it will revert to the last cycle
and options completed.
IMPORTANT:
• When the cycle starts, you will see a rotating pattern of lights in the display window indicating that the dishwasher is operating. This pattern will continue for up to 6 minutes while
the multiple sensors check the incoming water temperature, rinse aid usage and soil level on dishes and cookware. The sensors then determine the ideal wash for your dish load. After sensing is complete, the display will show the number of
minutes left in the cycle and the cycle countdown will begin.
• The cycle countdown pauses while the dishwasher heats the water to a set temperature. (See "Cycle Selections.")
5. Run hot water at the sink nearest your dishwasher until the water is hot. Turn off water.
6. Press the desired cycle and option selections on the control panel. (See "Cycles and Options.")
For Model KUDS02SR:
7. Close the door firmly. Press START/RESUME on the front of
the dishwasher door. Or press START/RESUME to repeat the same cycle and options as in the previous cycle.
For Models KUDS02FR, KUDU02FR, KUDU02VSPA,
KUDS02FSPA and KUDS03FS:
7. Press START/RESUME. Or press START/RESUME to repeat the same cycle and options as in the previous cycle. The
selected cycle and option lights will glow.
8. Push door firmly closed within 3 seconds of pressing Start/ Resume.
NOTE: If the dishwasher is not started within 30 seconds after selecting the cycle and options, it will revert to the last cycle
and options completed.
For model KUDS021S
7. Close the door firmly. Press START/RESUME. Or press START/RESUME to repeat the same cycle and options as in the previous cycle. The selected cycle and option lights will glow.

and options completed.
