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.

MMPORTANT SAFETY MNSTRUCTMONS

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

[] Read aHinstructions 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 likeUyto 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 INSTRUCTUONS

[] 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, lid, 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 or lid 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 appropriate 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.

ElectricaJ Shock Hazard

Electrically ground dishwasher. Connect ground wire to green ground connector

in terminaJ box. Do not use an extension cord. Failure to follow these instructions can resutt in

death, fire, or electricaJ 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.

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.

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

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

4. Push door firmly closed. The door latches automatically. Run hot water at the sink nearest your dishwasher until the water is hot. (See "Dishwasher Efficiency Tips.") Turn off water,

5. Press the desired cycle and option selections.

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

6. Press START/RESUME

..,i%

NOTE: If the door is opened during a cycle or the power is interrupted, the Start/Resume indicator flashes. The cycle will not resume until the door is closed, and Start/Resume is pressed.

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.

Thispatternwillcontinueforupto6minuteswhilethe multiplesensorschecktheincomingwatertemperatureand

soillevelondishesandcookware.Thesensorsthen determinetheidealcycleforyourdishload.Aftersensingis

complete,thedisplaywillshowthenumberofminutesleftin thecycleandthecyclecountdownwillbegin.

WiththeACCUSENSETM cycle (on some models), the pattern

occurs again in the Main Wash while sensors determine the load size.

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

The time displayed does not include the time needed to heat the water.

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 and press START/RESUME 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" (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.

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 eggshells

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.

10 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.

DISHWASHERUSE

The detergent dispenser has two sections. The smaller Pre-Wash

section empties detergent into the dishwasher when you close

the door. The larger Main Wash section automatically empties

detergent into the dishwasher during the wash. (See the "Cycle Selection Charts.")

A. Cover latch B. Main Wash section C. Pre-Wash section

• 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 moving the cover latch to the right.

2. Add the correct amount of detergent to the Main Wash section of the dispenser according to the chart below. If you are using a tablet detergent, it must be placed in the Main Wash section. (See "How much detergent to use.")

3. Add the correct amount of detergent to the Pre-Wash section of the dispenser, if needed, according to the chart below.

4. Close the dispenser cover.

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

NOTE: See the "Cycle Selection Charts" for which section to fill depending on the cycle selected.

How much detergent to use

• The amount of detergent to use depends on the soil level of • Water hardness can change over a period of time. Find out your dishes, hardness of your water, and the type of your water's hardness by asking your local water department, detergent. If you use too little, dishes will not be clean. If you water softener company, or county extension agent. use too much in soft water, glassware will etch.

Tablet detergents should be placed in the main wash section of the detergent dispenser with the cover closed. Follow instructions on the package when using liquid dishwasher detergent, concentrated powdered detergent or tablet detergent.

Light Soil or Prerinsed Normal - Heavy Soil

IMPORTANT: Your dishwasher is designed to use a liquid rinse aid. The use of rinse aids greatly improves drying by allowing water to drain from the dishes after the final rinse. They also prevent water from forming droplets that can dry as spots or streaks. Do not use a solid or bar-type rinse aid.

Rinse aid setting

The amount of rinse aid released into the final rinse can be adjusted. For most water conditions, the factory setting of 2 will

give good results. If you have hard water or notice rings or calcium spots on your glasses or dishes, try a higher setting.

Fillingthe dispenser

The rinse aid dispenser holds 5 oz (150 mL) of rinse aid. Under

normal conditions, this will last for about 1 to 3 months.

1. Make sure the dishwasher door is fully open.

2. Turn the dispenser knob to "Open" and lift it out.

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 is too 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

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

Place a candy or meat thermometer in a glass measurinc cup.

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 awater softener, you may want to avoid starting the dishwasher during the regeneration of the softener, since this may contribute to 3oor wash performance.

some or all of the cycles shown. Display time isfor models with the dual digit display on the

console.
