DISHWASHERSAFETY

Your safety and the safety of others are very important.

We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all

safety messages.

This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others. All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word "DANGER" or

This is the safety alert symbol.

"WARNING." These words mean:

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't

immediately follow instructions.

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't

follow instructions.

All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can happen if the instructions are not followed.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: When using the dishwasher, follow basic precautions, including the following:

= Read all instructions before using the dishwasher. ,,, Use the dishwasher only for its intended function. = Use only detergents or rinse agents recommended

for use in a dishwasher, and keep them out of the

reach of children.

= When loading items to be washed:

1) Locate sharp items so that they are not likely to damage the door seal; and

2) Load sharp knives with the 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 touch the heating element during or immediately after use.

SAVE THESE iNSTRUCTiONS

[] Do not operate the dishwasher unless all enclosure

panels are properly in place.

[] Do not tamper with controls. [] Do not abuse, sit on, or stand on the door or dish

racks of the dishwasher.

[] To reduce the risk of injury,do not allow children to

play in or on the dishwasher.

[] 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. if the hot water system has not been used for such a period, before using the dishwasher

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 flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame during this time.

[] Remove the door to the washing compartment when

removing an old dishwasher from service or discarding it.

Tip Over Hazard

Do not use dishwasher until completely installed. Do not push down on open door. Doing so can result in serious injury or cuts.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

For a grounded, cord-connected dishwasher:

The dishwasher 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. The dishwasher is equipped with a cord having an

equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appro- priate outlet that is installed and grounded in

accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

WARNING: Improper connection of the

equipment=grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service representative if you are in

doubt whether the dishwasher is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the dishwasher; if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

For a permanently connected dishwasher: The dishwasher must be connected to a

grounded 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.

Electrical Shock Hazard

Electrically ground dishwasher.

Connect ground wire to green ground connector in terminal box.

Do not use an extension cord. Failure to follow these instructions can result in

death, fire, or electrical shock.

Install where dishwasher is protected from the elements. Protect against freezing to avoid possible rupture of fill valve. Such ruptures are not covered by the warranty. See "Storing" in the "Dishwasher Care" section for winter storage

information.

• Install and level dishwasher on a floor that will hold the weight, and in an area suitable for its size and use.

• Remove all shipping plugs from hoses and connectors (such as the cap on the drain outlet) before installing. See Installation Instructions for complete information.

START-UPGUIDE

Before using your dishwasher, remove all packaging materials. Read this entire Use and Care Guide. You will find important safety information and useful operating tips.

4. Push door firmly closed. The door latches automatically. Run hot water at the sink nearest your dishwasher until the water

Scrape large food soil and hard items (toothpicks or bones) from dishes.

Properly load the dishwasher. (See "Dishwasher Loading.") Make sure nothing prevents the spray arm(s) from spinning freely.

Add detergent and check the rinse aid dispenser. Add rinse aid if needed. (See "Dishwasher Use.")

is hot. (See "Dishwasher Efficiency Tips.") Turn off water.

5. Press the desired cycle and option selections. The dishwasher starts filling when you press a cycle. You can select options as the machine fills. (See "Dishwasher Use.")

IMPORTANT (on some models):

• When the cycle starts, you will see a rotating pattern of lights in the display window indicating that the unit is operating.

This pattern will continue for up to 6 minutes while the multiple sensors check the incoming water temperature, rinse aid usage and soil level on dishes and cookware. The sensors then determine the ideal cycle for your dish load. After sensing is complete, the display will show the number of minutes left in the cycle and the cycle countdown will begin.

The cycle countdown pauses and the water heating light glows while the dishwasher heats the water to a set temperature. (See "Cycle Selection Charts.")

You can stop your dishwasher anytime during a cycle.

1. Open the door slightly.

2. Wait for the spraying action to stop. Then open the door all the way, if needed.

Close the door to continue the cycle. OR

Press CANCEL/DRAIN. A 2-minute drain starts.

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.

The top rack is designed for cups, glasses, and smaller items. Many items, up to 9 in. (22 cm), fit in the top rack. (See recommended loading patterns shown.)

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

10 place setting

DISHWASHERLOADING

• 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.

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 such as eggs, rice, pasta, spinach, and cooked cereals may be hard to remove if they are left to

dry over a period of time.

. i¸i,_i!__

12 place setting

• 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 and water spots.

• China, crystal, and other delicate items must not touch each other during dishwasher operation. Damage may occur.

• Load lightweight 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 inthe center section for best stability.

Cupshelves (on some models)

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

Adjustable 2-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. Raise the top rack to accommodate items up to 9 in. (22 cm) in the top rack and 13 in. (33 cm) in the bottom rack, or lower the top rack to accommodate items up to 11 in. (28 cm) in both the top and bottom racks. Adjusters are located on each side of the top rack.

Flexible tines (on some models)

The row of tines on the left and right sides of the top rack can be adjusted to make room for a variety of dishes.

To adjust the flexible tines

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

2. Gently push the tine out of the holder.

3. Lay the tines down, toward the center of the rack.

Light item clips (on some models) The light item clips hold lightweight plastic items such as cups,

lids, or bowls in place during washing.

To raise the top rack Lift the rack on either, or both, sides until the rack is level.

NOTE: The top rack adjusters MUST be level. To lower the top rack Press both rack adjusters and slide the rack back to its

original position.

_ "__ _ "_ !

The bottom rack is designed for plates, pans, casseroles, and utensils. Many items, up to 18 in. (33 cm) tall, fit in the bottom

rack. (See recommended loading patterns shown.) NOTE: The features on your dishwasher rack may vary from the

drawings shown.

10 place setting

To move a clip

Pull the clip up and off the tine.

Reposition the clip on another tine.

12 place setting

• 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.

• 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.

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.

......................i :

Fold away the plate tines to hold many bowls.

Fold away the entire row of both plate and bowl tines to make room for larger pans or roasters.

Utensil rack (on some models)

Use the Utensil rack to hold specialty cooking items (wooden spoons, spatulas, and similar items).

Mixed load

• 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.

FLIP AWAY TM plate holders

You can fold up all, or part, of the row of V-shaped flexible tines at the back of the bottom rack. This is useful when washing a variety of dishes, pots and pans, or roasters.

Place the entire row of tines in the down

position when washing a large number of plates.

.......il

The Utensil rack lies on the two supports in the right lower rack. Load the rack tray while it is in the dishwasher or remove it for loading on a counter or table top.

When not in use, the utensil rack may be left in the dishwasher and tilted out of the way.

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

NOTE: Unload or remove the basket before unloading the racks to avoid spilling water droplets on the silverware.

To open the silverware basket

Unlock the latch.

NOTE: Be sure the cover is completely latched before pulling out the bottom rack and before closing the dishwasher door.

• Place small items such as 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.

• 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

1. Grasp the silverware basket by the handle. Slide it toward the top of the door.

Mix items in each section of the basket with some pointing up and some down to avoid nesting. Spray cannot reach nested

items.

IMPORTANT: Always load sharp items (knives, skewers, etc.) pointing down.

2. Lift the basket off the holding buttons.

To replace the basket in the door

1. Set the silverware basket on the holding buttons.

2. Slide the basket toward the bottom of the door until it locks in 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.

DISHWASHERUSE

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

the door.

' ................

2 ...................

.......................4

1. Cover latch

2. Main Wash section

3. Pre-Wash section

4. Cover

The larger Main Wash section automatically empties detergent into the dishwasher during the wash. (See the "Cycle Selection Charts.")

• 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 rotating the cover latch.

2. Fill the Main Wash section with detergent. See "How much detergent to use."

3. Fill the Pre-Wash section, if needed.

4. Close the dispenser cover.

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%.

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

Very Hard Water

13 grains per gallon and above

NOTE: It might be necessary to use the Pots Pans cycle, or a normal cycle with the Hi Temp Scrub option

for best wash performance with

very hard water.

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

• Partially fill the Main Wash section (6 tsp or 30 g)

• Fill the Pre-Wash section (4 tsp or 20 g)

NOTE: Add only 2 tsp or 10 g of detergent to the Pre-Wash section if dishes are pre-rinsed or the water is very soft (0 to 2 grains per gallon).

For heavily soiled loads

• Partially fill the Main Wash section (7 tsp or 35 g)

• Fill the Pre-Wash section (4 tsp or 20 g)

For normal and heavily soiled loads

• Partially fill the Main Wash section (7 tsp or 35 g)

• Fill the Pre-Wash section (4 tsp or 20 g)

For normal and heavily soiled loads

• Fill the Main Wash section (8 tsp or 40 g)

• Fill the Pre-Wash section (4 tsp or 20 g)

• Turn the rinse aid dispenser to a higher setting. See "Rinse Aid Dispenser" later in this section.

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

Charts" for more details.

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.

Filling the dispenser The rinse aid dispenser holds 4.8 oz (145 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.

1. Make sure the dishwasher door is fully open.

2. Open the dispenser by pushing the cover latch.

1. Cover latch

2. Rinse aid dispenser

3. Indicator window

3. Add rinse aid until the indicator window looks full.

4. Clean up any spilled rinse aid with a damp cloth.

5. Close the cover. NOTE: The cover latch clicks when the cover is closed and

latched.

Rinse aid setting The amount of rinse aid released into the final wash can be

adjusted. The factory setting is at 2. For most water conditions, set the adjuster to 1 or 2. If there are rings or calcium (hard water) spots on dishes, try a higher setting.

To adjust the setting Open the dispenser cover. Turn the adjuster inside the dispenser to the desired setting.

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 should be 120°F (49°C) as it enters the dishwasher. Loads may not wash as well if the water temperature is too low. Water that istoo hot can make some soils harder to remove and cause certain detergent ingredients not to function. If your water heater is located far from the dishwasher, it may be necessary to run the hot water at the

faucet closest to the dishwasher to minimize the amount of cold water in the water line.

To check water temperature

1. Run hot water at the faucet closest to your dishwasher for at least 1 minute.

2. Place a candy or meat thermometer in a glass measuring cup.

3. Check the temperature on the thermometer as the water is running into the cup.

• 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 a normal 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.

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.

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

Display time is for models with the dual digit display on the console.

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

time indicates the cycle time might be longer depending on the soil level on dishes and 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.

Your electronic dishwasher senses the soil level on your dishes. Soil level determines the length of some cycles, the amount of

heat added to a wash or rinse, and the number of washes and rinses in a cycle.

Cycle time depends upon the soil on the dishes, and water usage may be higher for large amounts of soil.

3. Close the door firmly until it latches. The dishwasher resumes the cycle after about a 5-second pause.

You can customize your cycles by pressing an option. If you change your mind, press the option again to turn the option off, or select a different option if desired.

You can change an option anytime before the selected option begins. For example, you can press an unheated drying option any time before drying begins.

Soak & Scour Select this option to pre-soak your dishes for 4 hours in your

dishwasher instead of pre-soaking them in the sink. When you select Soak & Scour, the dishwasher fills and then sprays for 8 minutes. It will then pause for 16 minutes while dishes soak, and then spray for 90 seconds to keep dishes wet. Pausing for 16 minutes and spraying for 90 seconds are repeated for 4 hours. At

the end of the 4 hours, the dishwasher drains and then starts the cycle you have selected. This pre-soaking uses only one

additional fill of water and does not require special detergent. Use standard detergent per cycle recommendations.
