Loading Tips
Scrape off bones or large food particles. Remove excessive
• quantities of greasy/oily substances.
• Scrape or soak items with burnt on foods as they require more energy than the rest of the load to clean.
• Scrape off tomato based food soils. If connected to a food waste disposer, make certain the
• disposer is empty before starting the dishwasher. This allows proper draining.
• Mustard, mayonnaise, vinegar, lemon and other acidic foods can cause rust or discoloration on stainless steel. Rinse these pieces as soon as possible.
• Starch from foods like potatoes, pasta, rice and oatmeal require more energy to clean than the rest of the load.
Upper Rack (Features vary slightly by model.)
This rack is designed to hold glasses, cups, small plates, bowls, cookware, etc. Small plates or bowls should be loaded with soiled surfaces facing the center of the rack. Do
not load glasses over tines.
Place all items in the racks so they are separated and facing
• the center of the racks.
• Wedge flat, lightweight items next to the silverware basket or along the sides and back of the racks.
• Load items so they do not rest over the wash tower located
n the center of the lower rack.
i
• Avoid blocking the upper and lower spray arms by not allowing items to extend beyond the racks.
• Place glasses in any row of the upper rack for proper cleaning and rinsing. Do not load glasses over the tines.
Lower Rack
(Features vary slightly by model.)
Large items may be placed in any convenient location in this rack. Keep soiled surfaces facing the center of the rack.
The back of this rack accommodates a row of dinner plates or two rows of smaller plates. Serving bowls and large pans fit across the front of the rack or on the left side.
The Twin Shelf (select models) on the right side of the upper rack folds up or down. Fold it down to hold long-handled knives, spatulas and spoons or short items like cups or juice glasses. Fold it up for taller items like bowls, plates, etc.

Operating Steps
Step 1 Hot Water
For best results, the incoming water temperature should be 120°-140° F. Check the water temperature by turning on the hot water faucet nearest the dishwasher and letting it run into a glass in the sink. Place a candy thermometer in the glass and check the temperature once it has stopped rising. If it is below 120° F have a qualified person raise the water heater setting.
If the outside temperature is unusually low, or if your water travels a long distance from the water heater to the dishwasher, you may want to turn on the hot water faucet at the sink and allow it to run until the water is hot. This assures that the initial fill of water is hot.
Step 2 Detergent
Use a detergent designed specifically for use in an automatic dishwasher. Other types (laundry, hand soap, etc,) will cause oversudsing. Be sure to use fresh detergent and store it in a cool, dry place (not under the sink).
The amount of detergent to use depends on the water hardness measured in grains per gallon* (gpg) and the amount of soil on the dishes. Generally detergent amounts should be increased for harder water and heavier soil. Refer to the following chart for detergent usage recommendations.
Do not use detergent with lid open when running Rinse Only.
If the water hardness is 13 gpg or harder, it is difficult to achieve good results with any dishwasher. The solution is a mechanical water softener to improve water quality,
gent effectiveness, and to protect the dishwasher parts
deter from the damage that hard water deposits may cause.
Rinse Only. Leave the detergent
Step 3 Rinse Aid

A releases a measured amount of rinse aid into the final rinse
ortion of each cycle.

To fill the dispenser, turn the cap counterclockwise to open. Pour the rinse aid into the reservoir. Replace the cap and be sure it is securely in place before closing the dishwasher door. Check the dispenser monthly and refill as needed.
Rinse aid is available in solid form for models without a liquid dispenser. When using a solid rinse aid, fasten it to the back right corner of the lower rack. Purchase more rinse aid when the material dissolves and the container is empty.
Step 4 Starting the
Dishwasher
• After loading the dishwasher and adding detergent, set the control knob to the desired cycle and press the appropriate buttons.
• Press the door until it latches. The cycle will begin with a drain prior to a fill.
Step 5 Adding a
Forgotten Item
For best cleaning, the forgotten item should be added early in the cycle.
1. Unlatch the door.
2. Wait for the water circulation to stop.
3. Open the door and add the item.
4. Close and latch the door. The cycle resumes automatically.

Before You Call
Check these points to help save you time and money.
Dishwasher Will Not Fill:
• Be sure door is latched securely.
• Be sure the water is turned on.
• Check that the dial/pad is properly selected for a cycle. Allow time for select models to drain/pause before filling.
• Check your home‘s circuit breaker or fuse box.
• Check inlet hose for a kink.
• Check water valve inlet for sediment and clean if necessary.
Dishwasher Will Not Drain/Water In Tub Bottom:
• If connected to a food waste disposer, be sure the knock-out is removed from the disposer inlet.
• Be sure the drain hose is elevated at least 32” so water cannot siphon back into the tub.
• Check for food obstruction in the drain or disposer.
• Check drain hose for a kink.
• Check your home‘s circuit breaker or fuse box.
• Check that the cycle is completed.
Detergent Cup Is Not Empty:
• Check that the cycle is completed.
• Be sure dispenser is not blocked by a dish or utensil.
• Use fresh detergent stored in a cool, dry place.
Dishwasher Seems Noisy:
• A water valve hiss during fill is normal.
• Water circulation sounds are normal.
• A ticking noise is a normal timer sound.
• A thumping sound may be a wash arm bumping an item that is extending beyond the racks.
• Chopping or grinding sounds may be heard during drain as the internal chopper blade chops hard items like fruit seeds, nuts, etc.
• Humming during the drain is normal.
• A snap noise is the detergent cup lid hitting the door liner when the dishwasher door is opened at the end of the cycle. This is normal.
• Proper installation affects the noise level.
Cycle Takes Too Long (Heating Delay Light Stays On, select models):
• AccuTemp™or Temp Boost (select models) has been selected and the cycle is extended if the water temperature is low.
Check to see that the incoming water temperatur
e is 120-140° F (49-60° C).
Dishwasher has an Odor:
• Run dishes being held in the dishwasher through a Rinse Only cycle.
• Many dishwashers have a “new” smell when first installed. This will dissipate with use. Dishwasher may not be draining properly. (See “Will Not Drain” section.)
• For a str
• circulate for about 10 minutes. Interrupt the cycle by unlatching the door and let it stand overnight. Restart the dishwasher by latching the door and allow it to complete the cycle. Acommercial dishwasher cleaning product such as Jet-Dry Dishwasher Cleaner* can also be used.

Before You Call
Food Soil Remains on Dishes:
• Check water temperature (pg 3).
• Run hot water at the sink before starting the dishwasher.
• Select AccuTemp™or Temp Boost (select models).
• Check water hardness and adjust detergent amount accordingly (pg. 3). Use fresh detergent stored in a cool dry place.
• Select proper cycle for the soil level.
• Load items so they do not block the wash arms or center tower (pg. 2).
• Load the utensil basket with some handles up and some down to prevent nesting.
• Do not place glasses over tines.
• Prior to loading, scrape off burnt on foods and wipe the starchy film from utensils used with pasta, rice and oatmeal. These soils require more energy than the rest of the load to clean.
Glasses Are Cloudy/Spotted:
• Always use a rinse aid.
• Check water temperature, incoming water should be 120°-140° F (49-60° C).
• Confirm that the cloudiness is removable by soaking the item in white vinegar for approximately 5 minutes. If removed, the problem is due to hard water. Adjust detergent amount being used to match water hardness (pg. 3). Be sure detergent is fresh, stored properly and is a high quality brand.
• If cloudiness is not removable, it is etching. This is an erosion of the surface of the glassware and can be caused by water that is too hot, from using too much detergent or by prewashing. Detergent needs food soil to act upon. If etching has occurred, the glassware is permanently damaged. To prevent further etching, adjust the detergent amount to match the water hardness, stop prewashing, and be sure incoming water is not greater than 140° F (60° C). Use water heating options only when incoming water temperature is below 120° F (49° C).
Items W
• Aluminum utensils or pans can leave marks when they rub against other items. Leave a slight space between items.
• Iron deposits in the water can leave a yellow, brown or orange film on dishes or the dishwasher tub. A filter may be needed, check with a water treatment company. RoVer Rust Remover* (part no. 057961)** can be used to remove rust. Do not use RoVer along with dishwasher detergent. Fill both cups with RoVer and complete a Normal Wash cycle. Follow with a short wash cycle using dishwasher detergent.
• Color from tomato sauces may adhere to the tub (pg. 4). If light staining has occurred, leave the door open to oxidize the stain away. For removal of heavier stains, try a citric acid containing dishwasher cleaning product such as Glisten* (part no. 18001017)**. Change dishwasher detergent and be sure to use a dishwasher detergent that contains chlorine to better fight staining.
Items Not Properly Dried/Moisture Is Present On The Dishwasher Interior
• Be sure Heated Dry is selected.
• Water droplets may form on the inner door as part of the drying process. Always use a rinse aid like Jet Dry* or Cascade Rinse Aid*.
• Check water temperature (pg. 3). Select
• Increase detergent amount to match water hardness (pg. 3).
• Load properly (pg. 2)
• Plastic and teflon items are difficult to dry because the porous surface tends to collect water droplets. Towel drying may be necessary Glasses and cups with concave bottoms hold water and require towel drying.
