Connecting the faucet adapter to faucets with internal threads

Insert the 2 screens, the thin washer, and then the thick washer from the faucet adapter kit into the faucet adapter. Attach the adapter onto the end of the faucet.

Connecting the Faucet Adapter

NOTE: A special adapter must be installed on the faucet before the dishwasher can be connected. Complete Installation Instructions and the adapter are packed with your dishwasher. (See the Installation Instructions.)

When moving your dishwasher, make sure the door is latched. Hold the dishwasher at the top front corners.

Preparing the faucet

1. Remove the screen holder or aerator, screen, and washer

from the end of the faucet.

2. Use the faucet adapter kit that came with your portable

dishwasher to modify the faucet where the dishwasher will be used.

1. Washer

2. Screen

3. Screen holder or aerator

NOTE: Remove and save the washer, screen, and screen holder or aerator for future use.

1. Thick washer

2. Thin washer

3. Screens

4. Faucet adapter

NOTE: Use both washers.

Connecting to Water and Electrical Supply

1. Run water at the faucet until it is hot. Turn the water off.

2. Pull the hoses out of their storage compartment on the back

of the dishwasher.

NOTE: Make sure the hoses are not kinked or twisted. Kinked hoses reduce washing performance.

3. Pull down on the locking collar while lifting the hose

1. Faucet adapter

2. Locking collar

3. Hose connector

4. When the connector snaps into place, release the locking

collar.

5. Turn the hot water on slowly until it is all the way on.

6. Plug into a grounded 3 prong outlet.

Using the Faucet

You can draw water from the faucet while the dishwasher is connected.

NOTE: Do not draw water while the dishwasher is filling or while water is being pumped out. (This helps prevent a low fill when dishwasher is filling or mixing drain water with fresh water when dishwasher is draining.)

Press the red button on the hose connector to draw water from the faucet. (The faucet is set on hot. Adjust the faucet for the water temperature you want.)

NOTE: Turn the hot water back on after you draw water from the faucet. Turn off the cold water.

Disconnecting the Dishwasher

1. Turn the hot water off. (This can be done after the last rinse.)

2. Press the red button on the connector to release the water

pressure.

NOTE: If hard items such as fruit seeds, nuts, and egg shells enter the wash module, you might hear chopping, grinding, crunching, or buzzing sounds. These sounds are normal when hard items enter the module. Do not let metallic items (such as pot handle screws) get into the wash module. Damage can occur.

It is important for the water spray to reach all soiled surfaces.

■

Load dishes so they are not stacked or overlapping if

■

possible. For best drying, water must be able to drain from all surfaces.

■ Make sure pot lids and handles, pizza pans, cookie sheets,

etc., do not interfere with the spray arm rotation. Run a rinse cycle to keep dishes moist if you do not plan to

■

wash them soon. Foods like eggs, rice, pasta, spinach, and cooked cereals may be hard to remove if they are left to dry over a period of time.

Quiet operating tips

To avoid thumping/clattering noises during operation:

■ Make sure lightweight load items are secured in the racks.

■ Make sure pot lids and handles, pizza pans, cookie sheets,

etc., do not touch interior walls or interfere with the rotation of the spray arm.

Load dishes so they do not touch one another.

■

NOTE: For built-in models, keep sink drain plugs closed during dishwasher operation to prevent noise transfer through drains.

Loading the Top Rack

The top rack is designed for cups, glasses, and smaller items. (See recommended loading patterns shown.)

NOTE: The features on your dishwasher rack may vary from the drawings shown.

1. Faucet adapter

2. Locking collar

3. Red button

4. Hose connector

3. Lift slightly on the hose connector while pulling down the

locking collar. Pull down on the connector.

4. Empty any remaining water from the connector by turning the

connector upside-down.

5. Unplug the power supply cord and return it to the storage

compartment.

6. Return the hoses to the storage compartment.

DISHWASHER LOADING

Loading Suggestions

Remove leftover food, bones, toothpicks and other hard

■

items from the dishes. It is not necessary to rinse the dishes before putting them into the dishwasher. The wash module removes food particles from the water. The module contains a chopping device which will reduce the size of food items.

Cup and glass load

Mixed load

Place items so open ends face down for cleaning and

■

draining.

■ Load glasses in top rack only. The bottom rack is not

designed for glasses. Damage can occur.

■ Place cups and glasses in the rows between tines. Placing

them over the tines can lead to breakage. China, crystal, and other delicate items must not touch each

■

other during dishwasher operation. Damage may occur.

■ Load plastic items in the top rack only. Only plastic items

marked “dishwasher safe” are recommended. Load plastic items so the force of the spray does not move

■

them during the cycle. To avoid chipping, do not let stemware touch other items.

■

Small bowls, pans, and other utensils can be placed in the

■

top rack. Load bowls in the center section for best stability.

Extra-capacity fold-down shelves

Fold down the extra shelf on the right side of the top rack to hold additional cups, or long items such as utensils and spatulas.

Light item clips (on some models)

The light-item clips hold lightweight plastic items like cups, lids, or bowls in place during washing. You can move a clip anywhere in the rack.

Loading the Bottom Rack

The bottom rack is designed for plates, pans, casseroles, and utensils. Items with cooked-on or dried-on food should be loaded with soiled surfaces facing inward to the spray. (See recommended loading patterns shown.)

The features on your dishwasher rack may vary from the

NOTE:

drawings shown.

Mixed load

■ Do not load glasses, cups, or plastic items in the bottom

rack. Load small items in the bottom rack only if they are secured in place.

■ Load plates, soup bowls, etc., between tines and facing

inward to the spray.

■ Overlap the edges of plates for large loads.

■ Load soup, cereal, and serving bowls in the rack in a variety

of ways depending upon their size and shape. Load bowls securely between the rows of tines. Do not nest bowls because the spray will not reach all surfaces.

To move a clip

Pull the clip up and off the tine.

Reposition the clip on another tine.

Adjustable 3-position top rack (on some models)

You can raise or lower the top rack to fit tall items in either the top or bottom rack. Two adjusters are located on each side of the top rack. Each adjuster has 3 preset positions. The high and low positions are marked on the adjuster.

To adjust the top rack

Hold the top rack with one hand near the adjuster.

With the other hand, pull out the top of the adjuster.

Raise or lower the rack to one of the preset positions.

Release the adjuster.

Repeat the steps for the remaining adjusters as needed. The 4 adjusters can be raised or lowered separately or together. The top rack does not have to be level.

Utensil load

Load cookie sheets, cake pans, and other large items at the

■

sides and back. Loading such items in front can keep the water spray from reaching the detergent dispenser and silverware basket.

Secure heavily soiled cookware face down in the rack.

■

Make sure pot handles and other items do not stop rotation

■

of the spray arm(s). The spray arm(s) must move freely. Do not load items between the bottom rack and the side of

■

the dishwasher tub because they might block the water inlet opening.

NOTE:

If you have removed the bottom rack for unloading or

cleaning, replace it with the bumpers in front.

Fold-down tines (on some models)

You can fold down one row of tines at the back of the bottom rack.

Grasp the tip of the tine that is in the tine holder.

Gently pull the tine out of the tine holder.

Lay the row of tines down in the rack to make room for larger

dishes, bowls, pots, pans or roasters.

Loading the Silverware Basket

Load the silverware basket while it is in the dishwasher or take the basket out for loading on a counter or table.

Unload or remove the basket before unloading the racks

NOTE:

to avoid spilling water droplets on the silverware.

To open the silverware basket

Unlock the latch.

■ The silverware basket can be hung on the door or on the

bottom rack (see illustration).

The silverware basket can also be placed inside the bottom rack.

To remove the basket from the door

Grasp the silverware basket by the handle. Slide it toward the

top of the door.

Lift the basket off the holding buttons.

To replace the basket in the door

Set the silverware basket on the holding buttons.

Slide the basket toward the bottom of the door until it locks

into place.

NOTES:

■ Do not load silver or silver-plated silverware with stainless

steel. These metals can be damaged by contact with each other during washing.

Some foods (such as salt, vinegar, milk products, fruit juices,

■

etc.) can pit or corrode silverware. Run a rinse cycle if you do not have a full load to wash immediately.

Be sure the cover is completely latched before pulling out

NOTE:

the bottom rack and before closing the dishwasher door.

Place small items like baby bottle caps, jar lids, corncob

■

holders, etc., in the section(s) with hinged cover(s). Close the cover to hold small items in place.

Mix items in each section of the basket with some pointing up

■

and some down to avoid nesting. Spray cannot reach nested items.

IMPORTANT:

pointing down.

Always load sharp items (knives, skewers, etc.)

Cutlery Basket (on some models)

Use the cutlery basket to hold long items. Always unload or remove the cutlery basket before unloading the racks to avoid spilling water onto the cutlery.

Remove the basket and tip the contents onto a cutting

NOTE:

board to unload. This helps avoid accidents with sharp points and edges.

To remove the cutlery basket

Grasp the basket on both sides and slide it toward the top of

the door.

Lift the basket off the holding buttons.

To replace the cutlery basket

Set the basket on the holding buttons.

Slide the basket toward the bottom of the door until it locks

into place.

DISHWASHER USE

Detergent Dispenser

The detergent dispenser has 2 sections. The Pre-Wash section empties detergent into the dishwasher when you close the door.

Where to fill

Top of 3rd step (3 tbs or 45 g)

Top of 2nd step (2 tbs or 30 g)

Top of 1st step (1 tb or 15 g)

1. Cover

2. Main Wash section

3. Cover latch

4. Pre-Wash section

The Main Wash section automatically empties detergent into the dishwasher during the main wash. (See the “Cycle Selection Chart.”)

■ Use automatic dishwashing detergent only. Other detergents

can produce excessive suds that can overflow out of the dishwasher and reduce washing performance.

■ Add detergent just before starting cycle.

■ Store tightly closed detergent in a cool, dry place. Fresh

automatic dishwasher detergent results in better cleaning.

NOTE: Do not use detergent with a rinse cycle.

Filling the dispenser

1. If the dispenser cover is closed, open the cover by pushing

the Cover latch.

2. Fill the Main Wash section with detergent. See “How Much

Detergent to Use.”

3. Close the Main Wash dispenser cover. Fill the Pre-Wash

section if needed.

NOTE: If you select the Normal Wash cycle by turning the Cycle Control knob before filling the dispenser, the detergent dispenser cover will not stay latched. This is normal and will not affect washing performance.

It is normal for the cover to open partially when dispensing detergent.

NOTE: Use both sections for cycles with 2 washes. Use only the covered section for cycles with 1 wash. See the “Cycle Selection Chart” for more details.

Water Hardness Amount of Detergent

Soft to Medium Hard Water

0 to 6 grains per gallon

Medium to Hard Water

7 to 12 grains per gallon

NOTE: Fill amounts shown are for standard powdered detergent. Amounts may vary if you use liquid or concentrated powdered detergent. Follow instructions on the package when using liquid dishwasher detergent or concentrated powdered detergent.

For normally soiled loads

■ Fill the Main Wash section to the

top of the 2nd step (2 tbs or 30 g) Fill the Pre-Wash section to the

■

top of the 2nd step (2 tbs or 30 g) if needed

NOTE: Add only 1 tb or 15 g of detergent to both sections if dishes are pre-rinsed or the water is very soft (0 to 2 grains per gallon).

For heavily soiled loads

■ Fill the Main Wash section to the

top of the 3rd step (3 tbs or 45 g) Fill the Pre-Wash section to the

■

top of the 2nd step (2 tbs or 30 g)

For normally soiled and heavily soiled loads

Fill the Main Wash section to the

■

top of the 3rd step (3 tbs or 45 g) Fill the Pre-Wash section to the

■

top of the 2nd step (2 tbs or 30 g) if needed

How much detergent to use

The amount of detergent to use depends on the hardness of

■

your water and the type of detergent. If you use too little, dishes won’t be clean. If you use too much in soft water, glassware will etch.

Water hardness can change over a period of time. Find out

■

your water’s hardness by asking your local water department, water softener company, or county extension agent.

Different brands of dishwasher detergent have different

■

amounts of phosphorus for softening water. If you have hard water and use a detergent with a phosphorous content of less than 8.7%, you might need to use more detergent, or use a detergent with a phosphorous content higher than 8.7%.

Rinse Aid Dispenser

Rinse aids prevent water from forming droplets that can dry as spots or streaks. They also improve drying by allowing water to drain off of the dishes during the final rinse by releasing a small amount of the rinse aid into the rinse water. Your dishwasher is designed to use a liquid rinse aid. Do not use a solid or bar-type.

Checking the dispenser

Check the center of the Fill Indicator cap. Clear means it needs filling.

Or you can remove the Fill Indicator cap. If an “E” is visible, the dispenser is empty.

Filling the dispenser

The rinse aid dispenser holds 6 oz (175 mL) of rinse aid. Under normal conditions, this will last for about three months. You do not have to wait until the dispenser is empty to refill it. Try to keep it full, but be careful not to overfill it.

Make sure the dishwasher door is completely open.

Remove the Fill Indicator cap.

Add rinse aid. Fill to the smallest opening in the lower part of

the dispenser. Overfilling can cause the rinse aid to leak out, and could cause oversudsing.

If the water temperature at the faucet is below 120°F (49°C),

have a qualified person raise the water heater’s thermostat setting.

■ To save water, energy and time, do not rinse dishes before

putting them into the dishwasher. Use a low energy, quick, or short cycle whenever possible.

■

These cycles use less hot water and energy than the Normal Wash cycle.

■ Use a delay feature (on some models) to run your dishwasher

during off-peak hours. Local utilities recommend avoiding heavy usage of energy at certain times of day.

During the summer, run your dishwasher at night. This

■

reduces daytime heat buildup in the kitchen.

■ Use the energy-saving dry option whenever possible. Allow

longer drying times (overnight) when using these options. Use a rinse aid to improve drying.

Use cycles or options that add extra heat to the wash or rinse

■

portion of the cycle only when needed. Run your dishwasher with full loads. Run a rinse cycle after

■

meals until the dishwasher is full.

■ If your home is equipped with a water softener, you may want

to avoid starting the dishwasher during the regeneration of the softener, as this may contribute to poor wash performance.

Cycle Selection Chart

Select the wash cycle and options desired. The dishwasher starts filling once you press a cycle, unless you select a delay wash. You can select an option as the machine is filling.

After a wash cycle, the dishwasher remembers the options used and uses the same options in the next wash cycle unless new options are selected or Cancel/Drain is selected.

Clean up any spilled rinse aid with a damp cloth.

Replace the Fill Indicator cap. Close tightly.

Dishwasher Efficiency Tips

Hot water dissolves and activates the dishwashing detergent. Hot water also dissolves grease on dishes and helps glasses dry spot-free. For best dishwashing results, water must be at least 120°F (49°C) as it enters the dishwasher. Loads may not wash as well if the water temperature is too low.

To check water temperature

Run hot water at the faucet closest to your dishwasher for at

least 1 minute. Place a candy or meat thermometer in a glass measuring

cup.

Check the temperature on the thermometer as the water is

running into the cup.

A “●” shows what steps are in each cycle. Your model may have some or all of the cycles shown.

Temperatures indicate where extra heat is added. Water usage is shown in U.S. gallons/liters. Cycle time includes dry time. An asterisk ( * ) by the cycle time

indicates the cycle time might be longer depending on the temperature of the water entering the dishwasher. The cooler the water, the longer the cycle time. If the water is already hot enough, the cycle time will be as shown.

opened and the detergent washed away, refill the cups as needed.

Close the door.

Press a new cycle and/or options.

Adding Items During a Cycle

You can add an item anytime before the main wash starts. Open the door and check the detergent dispenser. If the main wash section is still closed, you can add items.

To add items

Lift up the door latch to stop the cycle. Wait for the spraying

action to stop before opening the door. Open the door. If the main wash detergent dispenser is still

closed, add the item. Close the door, but do not latch it. Wait 30 seconds for the air

in the dishwasher to warm up. This reduces the amount of moisture escaping from the vent when restarting a cycle.

Close the door firmly until it latches. The dishwasher resumes

the cycle after about a 5-second pause.
