POWER CLEAN* Washing System

Your dishwasher cleans by spraying a mixture of hot, clean water and detergent against soiled surfaces of dishes. When a cycle is started, the dishwasher fills with water to about the level of the heating element. This water is pumped through the rotating spray arm&through the POWER CLEAN Module which removes food particles, and back through the rotating spray arms. Soiled water is pumped out and replaced with clean water during a cycle - the number of times depends on the cycle being used.

The POWER CLEAN* Module removes food particles from the water, stores them, then washes them down the drain.

Load dishes so soiled surfaces face powerful spray from rotatlng arms.

Step-saving preparation for washing

It Is not necessary to rlnse dlshes before putting them Into the dlshwasher. Just remove large pieces, bones, and other hard items. The POWER CLEAN’ Module will remove food parti-

2. Use HI-TEMP WASHING Option. If water heating is needed, a thermostat will delay the cycle

until temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). If water is hot enough, the cycle will proceed with no delay. This lets you turn down your water heater, if you choose, without cutting

back on hot water needed for good dish-

washing.
