Important Safety Instructions

Read all instructions before using the dishwasher.

It is your responsibility to be sure your dishwasher

°Has been installed by a qualified installer.

°Has been properly grounded.

°Has been properly connected to an appropriate electrical supply, water supply and drain.

°Has been securely mounted to the cabinet.

°Is properly maintained.

°Has had all shipping materials, packaging and temporary labels removed.

Install dishwasher so that it is protected from the elements. Protect dishwasher from freezing to avoid possible fill valve damage.

DO NOT use an extension cord to connect the dishwasher to electricity.

Use the dishwasher only for its intended function.

To avoid the risk of personal injury due to steam burns, open door slowly to allow steam to escape before opening completely.

Use only detergents and rinse agents recommended for use in household dishwashers, and store them in a safe and dry environment away from the access of children.

When loading items to be washed, place sharp items so that they are not likely to damage the door seal and load sharp knives with the handles up to avoid the risk of personal injury.

DO NOT wash plastic items unless marked “dishwasher safe” or the equivalent.

DO NOT operate the dishwasher without the filters in place.

Important Safety Instructions

DO NOT operate your dishwasher unless all enclosure panels are properly in place.

DO NOT abuse, sit on or stand on the door or dish rack of the dishwasher.

DO NOT tamper with controls.

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

If hot water has not been used recently (usually two weeks or longer), hydrogen gases may buildup in the water heater and the hot water pipes. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. To prevent injury or damage, before using your dishwasher, turn on all hot water faucets and allow water to run for several minutes before using your dishwasher. This will allow gases to escape. Do not smoke or use any open flames near the faucet while it is open.

Depending on cycles/options selected, the dishwasher operates at very high water temperatures 155°F (68°C) on some models. Use extreme caution when opening unit or handling dishes.

DO NOT use door to push racks in. Close the dishwasher door when not in use.

DO NOT repair or replace any part of the appliance unless specifically recommended in the manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified authorized technician.

When discarding an old dishwasher, always remove the door to prevent accidental entrapment.

Cycles

Options

Lets you delay running the dishwasher for up to 4 hours. To set “DELAY START”, select the desired wash cycle and option(s). Press the “DELAY START” button once and the number “2” will light, indicating a two hour delay. If you desire a longer delay, continue pressing the “DELAY START” button to a 4 hour delay. The corresponding number on the button will light. Once you have set the desired delay time, press the “START” button and close the door. “DELAY START” is not available with the Rinse/Hold cycle.

AUDIBLE SOUND SIGNAL

A single beep will occur when you select cycles, options and press the “START” key. If the “START” button is not pressed or if the door is not closed within 4 seconds of pressing the “START” button, 3 short beeps will occur. The end-of-cycle signal consists of 2 long beeps and activates 30 minutes after the last drain, when the condensate dry portion of the cycle is completed. For all other error messages and to deselect the audible sound signal, see the Troubleshooting/ Fault Codes section.

ILLUMINATION OF BUTTONS

Option, Cycle and Start buttons will only illuminate after they are selected. The "SANITIZED" indicator will illuminate when the cycle has been completed. If your dishwasher did not properly sanitize your dishes, the indicator light will not illuminate. This can happen if the cycle is interrupted or the water could not be heated to the required temperatures. The "SANITIZED" indicator light goes off after you have opened and closed the door or if you press and hold the START/RESUME button.
