IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

MESURES DE SÉCURITÉ IMPORTANTES

WARNING!

For your safety, the information in this guide
must be followed to minimize the risk of fire,
explosion, electric shock, or to prevent property
damage, personal injury, or loss of life.

• Do not tamper with controls.

• Do not abuse, sit on, or stand on the door or

dish rack of the dishwasher.

• Do not discard a dishwasher without first

removing the door of the washing compartment.

• Do not store or use combustible materials,

gasoline or other flammable vapors and

liquids

in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.

• Do not allow children to play inside, on or with

this appliance or any discarded appliance.

MISE EN GARDE!

Pour votre sécurité, veuillez suivre à la lettre les
directives données dans le présent guide afin de
réduire les risques d’incendie, d’explosion ou de
chocs électriques, et prévenir les dommages
matériels et les blessures graves ou mortelles.

• Ne modifiez pas le fonctionnement des
commandes.

• Ne montez pas ou ne vous assoyez pas sur la
porte ou les paniers du lave-vaisselle, et ne les
utilisez pas de façon abusive.

• Ne jetez pas un lave-vaisselle sans en avoir
d’abord enlevé la porte.

• N’entreposez pas et n’utilisez pas d’essence,
de vapeurs ou de liquides inflammables à
proximité de cet appareil ou de tout autre
électroménager.

• Ne laissez pas les enfants jouer avec le lave­vaisselle ni monter dessus. Ne les laissez pas
s’introduire à l’intérieur de cet appareil ou
d’un vieil appareil qui ne sert plus.

WATER HEATER SAFETY

Under certain conditions hydrogen gas may be
produced in a water heater that has not been
used for two weeks or more. HYDROGEN
GAS IS EXPLOSIVE.

If the hot water has not been used for two weeks
or more, prevent the possibility of damage or
injury by turning on all hot water faucets and
allowing them to run for several minutes.
Do this before using any electrical appliance
which is connected to the hot water system.
This simple procedure will allow any built-up
hydrogen gas to escape. Since the gas is
flammable, do not smoke or use an open
flame or appliance during this process.

SÉCURITÉ DU CHAUFFE-EAU

Dans certaines conditions, il peut se former de
l’hydrogène à l’intérieur d’un chauffe-eau qui
n’a pas servi pendant deux semaines ou plus.
L’HYDROGÈNE EST UN GAZ EXPLOSIF.

Pour réduire les risques de dommages ou de
blessures lorsque l’eau chaude n’a pas été
utilisée depuis deux semaines ou plus, ouvrez
tous les robinets d’eau chaude et laissez l’eau
couler pendant plusieurs minutes avant
d’utiliser un appareil électrique raccordé au
système d’eau chaude. Vous éliminerez ainsi
l’hydrogène qui pourrait s’y être accumulé.
Puisqu’il s’agit d’un gaz inflammable, ne fumez
pas ou n’utilisez pas une flamme nue au cours
de ce processus.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

MESURES DE SÉCURITÉ IMPORTANTES

Use this appliance only for its intended
purpose as described in this Owner’s Guide.

• Use only powder, tabs or liquid detergents

or wetting agents recommended for use in a
dishwasher and keep them out of the reach
of children.

• Locate sharp items so that they are not likely

to damage the door seal.

• Load sharp knives with the handles up to

reduce the risk of cut-type injuries.

• Do not wash plastic items unless marked

dishwasher safe or the equivalent. For
plastic items not so marked, check the
manufacturer’s recommendations.

• Non-Dishware Items: Do not wash items such

as electronic air cleaner filters, furnace filters
and paint brushes in your dishwasher. Damage

Start a
wash load

To start the dishwasher, close the door until it locks in place, push the desired Cycle Selection button, and

If the door is opened during a cycle and left open, the dishwasher will beep once every minute until the door
is closed and latched into place.

To interrupt/pause a cycle, press the selected cycle button. The Status Indicators will flash.

CAUTION: Be careful when opening the door; the hot steam that escapes when the door is opened may

cause injuries. Stand back as you open the door and allow the steam to escape.

ATTENTION : Faites attention lorsque vous ouvrez la porte. La vapeur brûlante qui s’échappe lorsque

vous ouvrez la porte pendant un programme de lavage peut causer des brûlures. Lorsque
vous ouvrez la porte, reculez et laissez la vapeur s’échapper de l’appareil.

To restart the wash process, close the door until it locks in place. Re-press the cycle button. There may be a
time delay of up to a few minutes because the water temperature needs to stabilize before it starts the wash
cycle. During this time the DRY light will be on.

Tone
Silencing

You can prevent the beep from sounding when selecting control settings.

1. Press the CLEAR and FAST WASH buttons together prior to selecting settings.

2. To have sound again, simply press the CLEAR and FAST WASH buttons together again.

Using the dishwasher

Dishwasher

Detergents

Use only detergent specifically made for use
in dishwashers. Keep your detergent fresh
and dry. Don’t put powder detergent into the
dispenser until you’re ready to wash dishes.

The amount of detergent to use depends on
whether your water is hard or soft. With hard
water, you need extra detergent. With soft
water, you need less detergent.

Protect your dishes and dishwasher by
contacting your water department and asking
how hard your water is. Twelve or more

grains
is extremely hard water. A water softener is
recommended.

Without it, lime can build up
in the water valve, which could stick while open
and cause flooding. Too much detergent with
soft water can cause a permanent cloudiness of
glassware, called etching.

To open the detergent compartment, push the
lever latch inward.

You’ll find two detergent dispensers on the
inside door of your dishwasher. All wash cycles
require detergent in the main cup. Some wash
cycles require the use of the open cup. When
using automatic dishwashing detergent tabs,
place one tab in the main cup and close.

Be sure the Cycle Status Indicators (on some
models) are not lit before adding detergent.
Otherwise, the detergent cup will not close and
latch properly. Add detergent then close the
main cup.

NOTE: To open detergent cup after it has been
closed, push the lever latch inward.

Water
Temperature

The entering water must be at least 120°F. and
not more than 150°F., for effective cleaning and
to prevent dish damage. Check the water
temperature with a candy or meat thermometer.

Turn on the hot water faucet nearest the
dishwasher, place the thermometer in a glass
and let the water run continuously into the
glass until the temperature stops rising.

Use a

Rinse

Agent

A rinse agent improves dry performance,
removes spots and prevents new film build-up
on your dishes, glasses, flatware, cookware
and plastic.

Fill the rinse agent chamber by rotating the
round cap counterclockwise and remove. Fill
chamber to maximum level. Replace and lock
the cap into place.

To check if rinse agent is needed: a solid black
indicator indicates sufficient rinse agent; a clear
indicator indicates a low level and requires
adding more rinse agent.

• A full dispenser should last about one month.

• If rinse agent spills, wipe it up immediately.

It can keep your detergent from working.

•

If after washing you notice cloudy spots,
streaks or water marks on the glassware, and
the rinse agent dispenser is not empty, it may
be necessary to increase the dispenser settings.
To do so, remove the cap and using a butter
knife, rotate the indicator arrow to a higher
number. Replace the cap when done.

•

If glasses appear smeared or there is foam
present on the bottom of the glasses or the
bottom of the machine, select a lower dosage
number.

Loading the Racks

Dishwasher

Upper Rack

The upper rack is for glasses, cups and saucers. Cups
and glasses fit best along the sides. This is also a secure
place for dishwasher-safe plastics.

The cup shelf may be placed in the up or down position
to add flexibility. The cup shelf can also secure wine
glasses at an angle for best washability. Because wine
glasses come in various sizes, after loading, slowly push
in the rack to make sure they will clear the top of the
dishwasher.

The upper rack is also fitted with an adjustable glass

glasses or fold down to fit larger items over it. You
may need to change the height of the upper rack,
depending on how tall your load is.

The upper rack is good for all kinds of oddly-shaped
utensils. Saucepans, mixing bowls and other items
should be placed face down.

Secure larger dishwasher-safe plastic items over two
fingers when possible.

Make sure small plastic items are secure so they can’t
fall onto the heating element.

settings

Lower Rack

When loading the lower rack, do not load large platters
or trays in the front left corner. They may prevent
detergent from circulating during the wash cycle.

The lower rack is best used for plates, saucers, and
cookware. Large items such as broiler pans and
racks should go along the sides. Load platters, pots
and bowls along the sides, in corners, or in the back.
The soiled side of items should face the center of
the rack.

Fold-down fingers provide flexibility for extra large
and hard-to-fit items.

The fingers may be left in the up position or folded
down to customize the lower rack.

Silverware
Basket

Put flatware in the removable basket with fork and knife handles up to protect your hands. Place
spoons in the basket with handles down. Mix knives, forks and spoons so they don’t nest together.
Distribute evenly. Small plastic items, such as measuring spoons and lids from small containers,
should go in the bottom of the silverware basket with silverware on top.

Flip down covers can be lowered to secure lightweight items from the effects of the vigorous wash
action. The slots in the covers can be used to separate silverware.

Don’t let any item

Care and Cleaning

Dishwasher

Exterior

To clean the control panel use a lightly dampened cloth then dry thoroughly. To clean the
exterior painted panels use a good appliance polish wax.

Never use sharp objects, scouring pads or harsh cleaners on any part of the dishwasher.

Use stainless steel cleaner on stainless steel panel. You can order

Stainless Steel Magic # WX10X15

through GE Parts in the USA, by calling 800.626.2002. In Canada, call 1.888.880.3030.

Protect
Against
Freezing

If your dishwasher is left in an unheated place during the winter, ask a service technician to:

1. Cut off electrical power to the dishwasher. Remove fuses or trip circuit breaker.

2. Turn off the water supply and disconnect the water inlet line from the water valve.

3. Drain water from the water inlet line and water valve. (Use a pan to catch the water.)

4. Reconnect the water inlet line to the water valve.

5. Remove the filters from the tub bottom and use a sponge to soak up water.

The Air
Gap

An air gap protects your dishwasher against
water backing up into it if a drain clogs. The air
gap is not a part of the dishwasher. It is not
covered by your warranty. Not all plumbing
codes require air gaps, so you may not have one.

The air gap is easy to clean.

1. Turn off the dishwasher and lift off the
chrome cover.

2. Unscrew the plastic cap and clean with
a toothpick.

Interior

The stainless steel tub can be cleaned with Stainless Steel Magic or a similar product using
a clean, soft cloth.

Wipe the rubber door seals occasionally, including the seal at the bottom of the door.

Use stainless steel cleaner on stainless steel panel. You can order

Stainless Steel Magic # WX10X15

through GE Parts in the USA, by calling 800.626.2002. In Canada, call 1.888.880.3030.

Check the air gap any time your dishwasher
isn’t draining well.

Removing
and Cleaning
the Spray
Arms and
Glass Trap

Periodically, remove and clean the spray arms
to make sure that none of the nozzles have
become blocked.

To remove the lower spray arm, grasp the
center of the spray arm and pull upwards, it will
unclip. When replacing, make sure the spray
arm is fully seated.

The plastic cone on the underside of the spray
arm can be detached by unscrewing it
counterclockwise.

To remove the upper spray arm, carefully
unscrew the spray arm from the plastic tower.
To achieve this, hold the inner tower steady
and unscrew the spray arm clockwise. To
replace the spray arm, carefully screw the spray
arm counterclockwise onto the inner tower.

To clean the upper and lower spray arms, rinse
them under running water and make sure spray
nozzles are clear.

The glass trap is located in the stainless steel
filter at the base of your dishwasher. The glass
trap is used to collect larger food items and
other foreign objects, which may be too big to
pass through the drain pump. For best wash
performance, check the glass trap occasionally.

To remove the glass trap, twist counterclockwise,
rotate the glass trap

and lift. To clean the glass

trap, empty and rinse thoroughly. To replace,
reverse these steps making sure the glass trap
locks into place.

The Wash
Filters

In addition to the glass trap, your dishwasher
has three fine filters—

• a two piece round perforated stainless steel

filter located in the base of the dishwasher.

• a finer micro-mesh filter located under the

stainless steel filter.

• a super fine filter located below the lower

spray arm.

Remove the stainless steel filter by first twisting
and removing the glass trap. Lift out the
stainless steel filter.

Attached to the underside of this filter is the
micro-mesh filter. To remove the micro-mesh
filter, squeeze the two clips above the stainless
steel filter to release the micro-mesh.

To remove the super fine filter, remove the
lower spray arm. Grasp the super fine filter
around the outer edges. Remove by pulling
upwards, it will unclip. Unscrew the tower
counterclockwise. The right half of the stainless
steel filter can now be removed.

To clean filters, place under running water
and gently brush with a soft bristled brush.
Be careful not to deform filters while cleaning,
as

this may prevent them from being properly

re-installed.

The super fine filter is self-cleaning, there is
no need to clean it. This filter need only be
removed if you want to remove the right half
of the stainless steel filter.

Replace your filters in the reverse order,

starting with the right half of the stainless
steel filter. Then screw in the tower. Replace
the super fine filter over the tower by pressing
firmly on the outer edge until it clips into
place and reposition the lower spray arm.
Reconnect the micro-mesh filter to the left
half of the stainless steel filter prior to replacing
it back into the dishwasher. Then replace the
glass trap. Ensure that all filters are replaced
correctly for best results.

Water fill
level

For best performance, check the water fill level of your
dishwasher.

Once the dishwasher is fully connected, run it through a
complete RINSE & HOLD cycle to ensure it is emptying
and filling correctly. For low water pressure situations run
the RINSE & HOLD cycle 3 times. Half way through the
final RINSE & HOLD cycle, pause the dishwasher and
check the water level inside the dishwasher. If the water
level is not above the minimum water level (marked on the
lower spray support tower), increase the fill level.

For Model ZBD5600—Remove the front kickplate and
change the Fill Time switch setting.

For Model ZBD5700 and ZBD5900—

1. Ensure the dishwasher is not running through a cycle.
Depress the WATER TEMP button for ten seconds
until the second buzzer sounds.

2. Press the CLEAR button to select fill time, as per chart
(80 seconds is the factory setting).

3. To test time, press DELAY START. The dishwasher
will start filling. Listen for the dishwasher to complete
filling. Once filled, the fill level must be checked to
ensure fill time is correct.

4. Once complete, press the WATER TEMP button to
exit fill time mode.
