Refer to the Installation Guide for additional information
Understanding your dishwasher’s features
How your dishwasher cleans
The dishwasher fills with water, covering the filter area at the bottom.
Water is then pumped through the various filter and spray arms, spraying a
mixture of hot water and detergent against the soiled surfaces of your
dishes and silverware. Soil particles are separated and go down the drain as the
dirty water is drained and replaced with clean water. The number of water fills
is determined by the cycle selected.
Wash cycle selections
Cycle times are approximate and will vary with options selected. Hot water is
necessary to activate dishwasher detergent and melt fatty food soils.
An automatic sensor checks the incoming water temperature and, if it is not
hot enough, the timer will be delayed to allow for the water to heat for the
main wash of all cycles. This happens even when hi-temp wash is selected,
so that higher temperature will be available to handle heavier soil loads.
7
Filter system
Your dishwasher has a multiple filter system which includes four separate filter
meshes. It separates dirty water and clean water into different chambers.The
multiple filter system helps your dishwasher to get better performance with less
water and less energy.
Smart wash system
Your dishwasher has a smart wash system under the normal wash program
which selects the wash cycle based on how large and how soiled the load,
permitting your dishwasher to clean more efficiently every time. When a partial
load of lightly soiled dishes is placed in the unit, a short wash cycle is
automatically selected. When a full load of heavily soiled dishes is placed in the
unit, a heavy wash cycle is automatically selected.
Adjustable upper rack
The upper rack of your dishwasher can be raised or lowered to accommodate
loading dishes of varying heights in either rack. After removing the 3rd rack,
the upper rack clearance height can be adjusted from 8" to 10". The lower
rack clearance height can be adjusted from 11" to 13". See “Adjusting the
upper rack” on page 15.

Using your dishwasher
Using the control panel
Your dishwasher's control panel is located on the top edge of the door.
The door must be opened to make settings and operate the dishwasher.
Cycles
Select a cycle based on the type of dishes to be washed and the level of soil on
the dishes.
Cycle times are approximate and will vary with options selected. The timer will
be delayed to allow for the water to heat for the main wash of all cycles if the
sensor detects the water is not hot enough. Below is water use and cycle times
under standard conditions.

Filling the rinse aid dispenser
Your dishwasher is designed to use a liquid rinse aid. The use of rinse aid
greatly improves drying performance after the final rinse. Do not use a solid or
bar-type rinse aid. Under normal conditions, the rinse aid will last approximately
one month. Try to keep the dispenser full, but do not over fill it.
1 Turn rinse aid dispenser cap 1/4 turn counterclockwise and lift it out.
2 Add rinse aid until liquid touches the indicated fill level. Do not overfill since
this can cause over sudsing. Wipe up any spills with a damp cloth. The
dispenser holds enough for 35 to 140 washes, depending on the dial setting.
Dispenser cap
Less rinse aid
3 Replace the cap and turn it 1/4 turn clockwise.
More rinse aid
19
Factors affecting performance
Using rinse aid
Rinse aid greatly improves drying and reduces water spots and filming. Without
rinse aid, your dishes and dishwasher interior will have excessive moisture.
In addition, the heated dry option will not perform as well without rinse aid.
The rinse aid dispenser, located next to the detergent cup, automatically
releases a measured amount of rinse aid during the last rinse.
If spotting and poor drying is a problem, increase the amount of rinse aid
dispensed by rotating the dial to a higher number. The dial is located under the
dispenser cap.
If the rinse aid is low, the rinse aid light turns on at the beginning and end of
the cycle indicating that it is time to refill. Refer to “Filling the rinse aid
dispenser” on page .19
Water temperature
Hot water is required for optimum dishwashing and drying results. Water
entering the dishwasher should be at least 120° F (49° C) to achieve
satisfactory results.
To check water temperature entering dishwasher:
1 Turn on the hot water faucet near the dishwasher and let it run for
several minutes.
2 Hold a thermometer (a candy or meat thermometer will work) in the
water stream to check the temperature. If temperature is below 120° F
(49° C), have a qualified person raise the hot water heater thermostat setting.
Important
To make sure that the water entering the dishwasher is hot, run hot
water from the nearest hot water faucet to clear cool water from the
pipe before starting the cycle.
Heat dry function
The heat dry function, when used with a rinse aid, enhances drying
performance. If you do not choose the heat dry function, items in your load
that will not be completely dry at the end of the cycle.
Water pressure
For optimum performance, the hot water supply line for your dishwasher
must provide water pressure of at least 20 psi and not more than 120 psi.
You may experience low water pressure during high-demand periods,
such as when laundry or showers are in use while you are washing the
dishes. To eliminate this problem, wait until hot water demand is reduced
before starting the dishwasher.
20
Factors affecting performance
Caution
TO AVOID BURN INJURY: Allow the heating element to cool before
attempting to clean the interior of your dishwasher.
Cleaning the stainless steel panel
Clean the stainless steel door and handle regularly with a soft cloth and
standard household cleaner to remove the debris
Caution
Do not use appliance wax, polish, bleach or products containing
chlorine to clean the stainless steel door.
Cleaning the control panel
Clean the control panel gently with a soft, lightly dampened cloth.
Cleaning the stainless steel inner door and tub
The tub is made of stainless steel. It will not rust or corrode, even if the
dishwasher should be scratched or dented.
Clean the spots on the steel inner door and tub with a damp non-abrasive cloth.
Cleaning the filters
The filters are designed to collect debris and need to be cleaned monthly to
maximize wash performance.
1 Remove the bottom rack.
21
2 Rotate the cylinder filter, then lift it out.
3 Lift the fine filter from the bottom of the tub.
Lock
4 Take out the fabric filter.
22
5 Flush the filters by holding them under running water.
6 Replace the fabric filter.
7 Replace the fine filter.
8 Replace the cylinder filter.
9 Replace the bottom rack.
Cleaning the door and tub gaskets
Clean the door gasket with a damp cloth to remove food particles regularly.
23
The inside of the dishwasher is self-cleaning under normal use. If needed,
the tub gasket can be cleaned with a damp cloth. Use a brush to clean the
opening in the end of the gasket.
Cleaning the air gap
If there is an air gap installed with your dishwasher, make sure it is clean so
the dishwasher will drain properly. Air gap is not part of your dishwasher.
Before you clean the air gap, turn off the dishwasher, then remove the
plastic air gap cover and clean with a toothpick.
Protecting your dishwasher for long
periods
Your dishwasher should be protected from freezing if you plan to leave it for
extended periods in an unheated place. Have a qualified person do the
following:
To disconnect service:
1 Turn off the electrical power to the dishwasher at the supply source by
moving fuses or tripping circuit breaker.
2 Turn off the water supply.
24
3 Place a pan under the inlet valve, then disconnect water line from the inlet
valve and drain it into a pan.
4 Disconnect drain line from pump and drain the water into a pan.
To restore service:
1 Reconnect the water, drain, and electrical power.
2 Turn on water and electrical power supply.
3 Fill the detergent cup and the rinse aid cup and run the dishwasher through
a heated-wash cycle.
4 Check all connections to make sure they do not leak.
