9 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

IMPORTANT SAFETY I NST RUCTI ONSREAD AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

This dishwasher is provided with Installation Instructions and this Use and Care Manual. Read and understand all instructions before using the dishwasher.

This dishwasher is intended for use up to a maximum altitude of 13,000 ft (4,000 meters) above sea level.

To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or serious injury, observe the following:

WARNING

RISK OF INJURY OR DEATH Misuse of the dishwasher can result in serious injury or

death. Do not use the dishwasher in any way not covered in this manual or for any purpose other than those explained in the following pages.

WARNING

RISK OF INJURY Severe injury and/or product damage could result from

the use of unauthorized service technicians or nonoriginal replacement parts. All repairs must be performed by an authorized service technician using only original equipment factory replacement parts.

WARNING

RISK OF ELECTRICAL SHOCK OR FIRE Electrical shock or fire could result if the electrical supply

for the dishwasher covered in this manual is incorrectly installed or if the dishwasher has been improperly grounded. Do not use the dishwasher covered in this manual unless you are certain the electrical supply has been correctly installed and the dishwasher has been properly grounded.

Risk of fire, electrical shock, or serious injury

WARNING

RISK OF ELECTRIC SHOCK This appliance must be grounded. In the event of a

malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor. Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician if you are in doubt whether the appliance is properly grounded.

Safe Operation

Use this dishwasher only for its intended function, which is the washing of household dishware and kitchenware rated as dishwasher safe.

Use only detergents or rinsing agents recommended for use in a dishwasher, and keep them out of the reach of children.

CAUTION

When loading items to be washed:

▯ Locate sharp items so they are not likely to

damage the door seal.

▯ Load knives and other sharp utensils with their

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 operate your dishwasher unless all

enclosure panels are in place.

▯ Do not tamper with or override controls and

interlocks.

WARNING

HEALTH HAZARD Never use harsh chemicals to clean your dishwasher.

Some chloride-containing products can damage your dishwasher and may present health hazards!

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

This appliance must be grounded to a 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. See the Installation Instructions included with this dishwasher for more information on electrical requirements.

Do not abuse, sit or stand on the door or dish racks of the dishwasher.

WARNING

RISK OF INJURY To avoid risk of injury, always use caution when opening

the door during or following a wash cycle as hot water or steam may escape. Do not fully open the door until water noises have stopped and steam has subsided.

NSF/ANSI 184 Certified residential dishwashers are not intended for licensed food establishments.

9 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

READ AND SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

Child Safety

To reduce risk of injury, do not allow children to play in or on the dishwasher.

When children become old enough to operate the appliance, it is the responsibility of the parents/legal guardians to ensure the children are instructed in safe practices by qualified persons.

Proper Care and Maintenance

WARNING

RISK OF EXPLOSION 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. Before using a dishwasher that is connected to a hot water system that has been unused for two weeks or longer, 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 explosive, do not smoke or use an open flame during this time.

Remove the dishwasher door to the washing compartment when removing an old dishwasher for service or discarding.

To avoid floor damage and possible mold growth, do not allow wet areas to remain around or under the dishwasher.

To avoid dishwasher damage, do not allow water to remain in your dishwasher systems through extended periods of freezing temperatures. Freezing temperatures can damage the water fill valve and potentially other components of your dishwasher.

NOTICE: It is highly recommended for the end user to become familiar with the procedure to shut off the incoming water supply and the procedure to shut off the incoming power supply. See the Installation Instructions or contact your installer for more information.

WARNING

STATE OF CALIFORNIA PROPOSITION 65 WARNINGS This product can expose you to chemicals including vinyl

chloride, which is known to the State of California to cause cancer, birth defects, or other reproductive harm. For more information go to www.P65Warnings.ca.gov.

Causes of Damage

NOTICES

Water softening system / special salt

To ensure good rinsing results, the dishwasher requires soft water, i.e. water which is low in lime, otherwise limescale will be deposited on the utensils and interior container. Tap water above 7° dH (1.2 mmol/l) must be softened. The water is softened with special salt (regeneration salt) in the water softening system of the dishwasher. The setting and therefore the required amount of salt depends on the degree of hardness of your tap water (see following water hardness table).

Using special salt

As soon as the low salt indicator P lights up on the digital display, salt should be topped off. Always refill with special salt immediately before switching on the appliance. This ensures that overrun special salt solution is immediately washed out and does not corrode the rinsing tank.

NOTICE: Detergent will destroy the water softening system! Never pour detergent into the salt dispenser.

Top off the salt as follows:

Undo the screw plug on the dispenser 1Z.

Fill the dispenser with water (required only when switching on the appliance for the first time).

Add salt as illustrated (do not use table salt or tablets).

The water is displaced and runs out.

Using a water hardness test strip

The strip will be included in the detergent sample kit.

Sample test strip

Adjusting the water softening system

The amount of salt dispensed can be set from 0 to 62°E. Salt is not required at the set value 0-8.

Set the softening system as follows:

Ask your local water utility company for the water hardness value of the tap water.

Required setting can be found in the water hardness table.

Open the door.

Switch on ON/OFF switch (.

For more information about buying dishwasher salt, please contact customer service (1-800-944-2904).

Using detergents with salt component

If combined detergents with a salt component are used, special salt can usually be omitted up to a water hardness of 21° dH (37° fH, 26° Clarke, 3.7 mmol/l). If the water hardness is over 21° dH, salt must be used.

@ (enough

As soon as the low rinse aid indicator H lights up on the control panel, rinse aid should be topped off. The rinse aid is required for stain-free utensils and clear glasses. Use only rinse aid which the manufacturer designates as save to use in domestic dishwashers. Combined detergents with rinse aid component may be used up to a water hardness of 21° dH (37° fH, 26° Clarke, 3.7 mmol/l) only. If the water hardness is over 21° dH, rinse-aid must be used.

NOTICE: To avoid oversudsing or clogging, do not overfill the rinse aid dispenser 9*. Wipe up any spills with a damp cloth.

Open the rinse aid dispenser 9* by pressing on the latch of the lid and pulling it open.

Add liquid rinse aid to the dispenser 9* until it is full. Do not overfill.

Close the lid. Lid must be fully closed until it clicks in order to seal.

Wipe up any excess rinse aid that may have puddled when the dispenser reservoir is full.

This prevents excessive frothing during the next wash cycle.

NOTICE: Do not fill the rinse aid dispenser 9* with detergent. Doing so will damage the dishwasher.

Setting the amount of rinse aid used

The amount of rinse aid to be dispensed can be set from 0 to 6. Set the amount of rinse aid to be dispensed to 5 to obtain a very good drying result. Do not change the amount of rinse aid unless there are streaks or water stains on the utensils. Set a lower level to avoid streaks. Set a higher level to avoid water stains.

Set the amount of rinse aid as follows:

Open the door.

Press on ON/OFF button (.

Press Info button ( 8 for 3 seconds until the following text is indicated on the display window at the top @:

Scroll with < > Set with - + Leave with t 3 sec.

Make the selection with setting buttons + - X.

Press and hold the Info button (8 for 3 seconds.

The chosen setting has now been stored. Note: Do not change the amount of rinse aid unless

there are streaks (select lower setting) or water stains (select higher setting) visible on the utensils.

For best dishwashing results, observe the following when loading the dishwasher:

▯ Do not pre-wash items with loosely attached food soil. ▯ Remove all food particles, bones, toothpicks and

excessive grease.

▯ Pre-treat items having burned-on, baked-on or starchy

soils.

▯ Load dishes in the dishwasher racks so the insides of

bowls, pots and pans are facing the spray arms.

▯ Avoid nesting and contact points between dishes. ▯ Separate items of dissimilar metals. Use care to not

block movement of the spray arms.

▯ Only wash household dishware and kitchenware rated

as dishwasher-safe. Refer to the Dishware Materials section for more

information about dishware suitability.

NOTICE: To avoid dishwasher damage, do not load the dishwasher with paper products, plastic bags, packing materials or anything other than normal, dishwasher safe dishware and kitchenware.

Loading the upper rack

Ensure items do not protrude through the bottom of the racks and block the spray arms.

Note: When pushing the upper rack 12 into the dishwasher, push it until it stops against the back of the tub so the upper rack spray arm 1: connects to the water supply at the back of the tub. Do not push racks in using the door.

Loading the lower rack

Place large items in the lower rack 9". Load pots, pans and bowls upside down. Do not block the vent hole 1J with tall baking sheets. Load these items on the right side of the dishwasher.

NOTICE: To avoid dishwasher damage, do not reinstall the upper rack 12 without removing the extra tall item sprinkler (B).

Detergent

Use only detergent specifically designed for dishwashers. For best results, use fresh powdered dishwashing detergent or detergent tabs.

NOTICE:

▯ Do not use hand dishwashing products in your

dishwasher.

▯ Do not use too much detergent if your water is soft.

Using too much detergent with soft water may cause etching in glassware and fine china.

This dishwasher uses less water than most, therefore, less detergent is required. With soft water, 1 tablespoon (15 ml) of detergent will clean most loads. The detergent dispenser cup has lines that measure detergent to 1 tablespoon (15 ml) and 1.75 tablespoons (25 ml). 3 tablespoons (45 ml) of detergent will completely fill the detergent dispenser.

Note: If you do not know the hardness of your water supply, use 15 ml of detergent. Increase the amount if necessary to the least amount required to get your kitchenware clean.

Use the measuring lines in the detergent dispenser cup as a guide to measure the amount of detergent recommended in the following table.

Close the lid by placing the finger on the lid as shown. Slide the lid closed and press down firmly until it clicks.

CLICK

The detergent dispenser will open automatically at the ideal time for the set cycle. The powder or liquid detergent is distributed in the appliance and is dissolved, detergent tabs will fall into the detergent tab tray 1B where it dissolves during the cycle.

Tip: If the dishware is only lightly soiled, slightly less than the indicated amount of detergent is usually adequate.

Note:

The Energy Guide label was based on the Normal soil sensing cycle as follows: The unit was tested without any rinse aid (liquid) in the rinse aid dispenser dose of detergent was inserted into the detergent dispenser 92, with no detergent being used in the prewash. The unit was not subjected to truncated testing per the definitions in the test procedure. We recommend that dish loads such as the one in the energy certification test have the rack position set in the highest position.

Dishwasher Cycle Options

Power Boost

Perfect for a mixed load. You can wash very soiled pots and pans in the lower rack together with normally soiled utensils in the upper rack. The spray pressure in the lower rack is intensified, the rinsing temperature is increased slightly.

Save Time

Save Time is an option that allows saving time without sacrificing wash and dry performance. Selecting this option ensures the same final temperatures as the underlying cycle, while heating up the dishes more quickly. Selecting this option also increases energy consumption while reducing cycle time.

Half Load

Can reduce water consumption when washing small, lightly soiled loads that fill approximately half of the dishwasher’s capacity.

Sanitize

Increases the temperatures and retains them for an extra long time to obtain a defined disinfecting performance. Continuous use of this function increases the hygiene status. This additional option is ideal for cleaning items such as chopping boards and baby bottles.

“Sanitized” will appear in the display window when sanitation requirements are met. Using the Sanitize option may also improve drying. There is a slight increase in energy consumption.

Extra Dry

An increased temperature during the final rinse and an extended drying phase ensure that plastic parts dry better. There is a slight increase in the energy consumption.

Wash Cycle Information

To save energy, this dishwasher has EcoSense where the sensors in the dishwasher automatically adjust the cycle length, temperature and water changes based on the amount of food soil and the incoming water temperature. The “Smart Control” makes decisions that can cause the cycle time and water usage to adjust intermittently. Wash cycle times are based on 120°F (49° C) water supply. If your household water supply is different than 120°F (49° C), your dishwasher’s cycle times may be impacted.
