Loading the Dishwasher
The following items are not suitable for wash in the dishwasher:
- Cutlery with wooden, horn china or mother-of-pearl handles and wooden platters
- Plastic items that are not heat resistant
- Older cutlery with glued parts, bonded cutlery items or dishes
- Pewter or copper items
- Crystal glass
- Steel items subject to rusting
- Very small items as they may fall out the basket
- Items made from synthetic bers
Items of limited suitability:
- Silver and aluminum - tends to discolor after washing
- Glazed patterns may fade
CUTLERY BASKET
Flatware should be placed in the cutlery basket with handles at the bottom. Knives and other sharp
utensils should be placed with handles up, but make sure the tips do not extend through the bottom.
If the rack has side baskets, spoons should be loaded individually into slots. Longer utensils should
be placed horizontally at the front of the upper rack.

Page 8
UPPER RACK
The upper rack is designed to hold more delicate and lighter dishware such as glasses, coffee and
tea cups and saucers, as well as plates, small bowls and shallow pans (as long as they are not too
dirty). Position the dishes and cookware so that they do not get moved by the spray of water. The
upper rack can be lifted (or lowered) by removing and placing the rack into different rails. This
makes room for either rack to accomodate different size items.

FOR BEST PERFORMANCE
- Scrape off food particles before loading.
- Soften remnant of burnt food in pans
- Place cups, glasses, bowls, pots/pans face down.
- Curved items, or those with recesses, should be loaded at a slant so water can furn off.
- Allow sufcient space between items to allow water and detergent to reach each surface.
- Ensure glasses and stemware are secure and balanced.
- Ensure breakable items are not sitting on metal cutlery which can chip the dishes.
- Do not overload the dishwasher.
WARNING
- To prevent damage, do not remove glass and cutlery from the dishwasher immediately after
end of a program. Allow the dishware to return to room temperature

Page 9
Detergent Dispenser
To prevent formation of deposits, do not add too much detergent. This dishwasher has specially
designed water softener.
This unit uses less detergent and rinse aid than most conventional dishwashers. In general, only
one tablespoon of detergent is needed for a normal wash load. Add more detergent as needed for
heavily soiled loads. The amount of detergent can also vary due to differences in water hardness.
To determine the water hardness in your area, contact your local water utility company. The harder
the water, the more detergent may be needed. Remember, you should adjust the amount of
detergent by small amounts until you nd the correct amount.
The dispenser must be relled before the start of each wash cycle and always add detergent just
before starting the dishwasher, otherwise it could get damp and not dissolve properly.
Use only detergent specically made for use with dishwashers.

arm jets and bearings. To remove the spray arm, screw off the nut to take out the washer on
top of the spray arm and remove arm. Wash with soapy and warm water and use a soft brush
to clean the jets. Carefully reinstall making sure the rotary movement is not impeded.
Cleaning the Dishwasher

soft towel.
The exterior can be wiped with a towel and mild detergent solution. Wipe clean and follow
with a good appliance polish wax.
Never use sharp objects, scouring pads or harsh cleaners on any part of the dishwasher.
11
Page 13
Protect Against Freezing
If your dishwasher is left in an unheated place during the winter months, please follow these
procedures after each wash:
1. Turn off the dishwasher.
2. Turn off water supply and disconnect water inlet hose from the water valve.
3. Drain water from the inlet hose and water valve (use a pan to catch the water).
4. Reconnect the water inlet hose to water valve.
5. Remove the plastic sump cover in the bottom of tub and use a sponge (or towel) to soak up
water in the sump
Cleaning the Door
Use only a soft damp cloth with warm water to clean the edge around
the door. To avoid penetration of water into the door lock and electrical
components, do not use a spray cleaner of any kind.
WARNING: Abrasive agents and some paper towels may scratch or
leave marks on the surface.
Keeping Your Dishwasher in Shape
After Every Wash
Turn off the water supply and leave door slightly open so moisture and odors are not trapped inside.
Remove the Plug
Before cleaning or performing maintenance, always remove the plug from the socket. Do not take risks.
No Solvents or Abrasive Cleaning
Never use abrasive cleaners or solvents to clean the dishwasher. Use only a dampened soft towel
with warm water. To remove spots or stains on the interior surface, you may use a cloth dampened
with water and a little white vinegar.
Clean Filters Regularly
Clean the lters regularly to prevent clogs and odors.
Clean the Door Seals
Food that gets trapped in the seals may cause odor to form. Periodic cleaning with a damp sponge
will prevent this from occuring.
Moving the Dishwasher
If the dishwasher must be moved, try to keep it in the upright position. If absolutely necessary,
it can be positioned on its back.
Storage or Vacation Time
It is recommended you run a wash cycle with the dishwasher empty. Disconnect from power and
turn off water supply. Remove any remaining water in the sump area with a sponge. Leave the
door slightly open. This will help the door seal to last longer and prevent odors from forming
inside the dishwasher.
