Key Usage Tips

Filtration system and Maintenance

• Your dishwasher has the latest technology in dishwasher filtration. This filtration system minimizes sound and optimizes water and energy conservation while providing superior cleaning.

• The filter system consists of two parts, an upper filter assembly and lower filter.
• IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to dishwasher, do not operate your dishwasher without filters properly installed. Be sure lower filter is securely in place and upper filter assembly is locked into place. If upper assembly turns freely, it is not locked into place.
• The filters may need to be cleaned when:
  • Visible objects or soils are on upper filter assembly.
  • Dishes feel gritty to the touch. See “Filtration System” in the full User Instructions for complete removal and maintenance schedule. IMPORTANT: Do not use a wire brush or a scouring pad, etc., as they may damage the filters. Rinse filter under running water until soils are removed. If you have hard-to-remove soils or calcium deposits because of hard water, a soft brush may be required.

Drying – Rinse aid is essential

• You must use a drying agent such as a rinse aid for good drying performance. Rinse aid along with the Precision Dry + option will provide best drying and avoid excessive moisture in the dishwasher interior.

Energy efficiency

• Energy efficiency is gained by extending cycle time and reducing the amount of wattage and water used during your dishwasher’s cycle. For exceptional cleaning, cycles are longer due to the soak and pauses.
• Efficient dishwashers run longer to save water and energy, just as driving a car slower saves on gas. Your first cycle will run longer to calibrate the optical water sensor.

Press Start every time you add a dish

• IMPORTANT: If anyone opens the door, such as toadd a dish, Start must be pressed each time. Push door firmly closed within 4 seconds of pressing Start. If door is not closed within 4 seconds, the Start button LED will flash, an audible tone will be heard, and the cycle will not start.

Operating Your Dishwasher

1. Prepare and load the dishwasher

IMPORTANT: Remove leftover food, bones, toothpicks, and other hard items from dishes. Remove labels from containers before washing.

• Make sure when dishwasher door is closed, no items are blocking detergent dispenser.
• Items should be loaded with soiled surfaces facing down and inward to the spray as shown in the graphics above. This will improve cleaning and drying results. Angle dirtiest dish surface downward, allowing space for water to flow up through rack and between dishes.
• Avoid overlapping items, like bowls or plates, that may trap food.
• Place plastics, small plates, and glasses in upper rack.
• Wash only items marked “dishwasher safe.”
• To avoid thumping/clattering noises during operation, load dishes so they do not touch one another. Make sure lightweight load items are secured in racks.
• When loading silverware, always place sharp items pointing down and avoid “nesting” as shown. If your silverware does not fit into the designated slots, lift and slide covers off to remove them and mix silverware types to keep them separated.
• Use the slots in the covers and suggested loading patterns to keep your silverware separated for optimum wash. See the complete online User Instructions for detailed illustrations.

2. Check that all arms spin freely

• Items in the rack can block the spray arms.

3. Add detergent

Premeasured Detergents

• High-quality premeasured tablets and packs are recommended for improved performance.
• Quality tablets and packs have been proven better than powder, liquid, or gel detergents at reducing filming on dishes. Using tablets and packs over time will start to reduce or eliminate white film. They are suitable for all water hardness and soil levels. Also, by using a rinse aid, you can minimize repeat buildup of white film (not all packs and tablets contain rinse aid). Always place premeasured detergents in main compartment and close lid.
• NOTE: Follow instructions on the package when using other dishwasher detergent types. See the complete User Instructions for more details about powders, liquids, and gels.
  • Use automatic dishwasher detergent only. Add detergent just before starting a cycle.
  • Fresh automatic dishwasher detergent results in better cleaning. Store tightly closed detergent container in a cool, dry place.

4. Add rinse aid

• Your dishwasher is designed to use rinse aid for good drying performance. Without rinse aid, your dishes and dishwasher interior will have excessive moisture. The heating and drying options will not perform as well without rinse aid.
• Rinse aid keeps water from forming droplets that can dry as spots or streaks. It also improves drying by allowing water to drain off of dishes after final rinse. Rinse aid does not adhere to dishware, and when used, it is dispensed during each cycle.
• Add rinse aid by twisting the dispenser cap a quarter turn clockwise to open and lift off. Pour rinse aid into the opening until the indicator level is at “Full.” Replace the dispenser cap and turn to “Lock.” Make sure cap is fully locked.

NOTE: For most water conditions, the factory setting will give good results.

If you are experiencing poor drying performance, you may want to try a higher setting. Turn the arrow adjuster to a higher number to increase the amount of rinse aid.

5. Select a cycle

• Efficient dishwashers run longer to save water and energy, just as driving a car slower saves on gas. Typical cycle time is approximately 21 /2 hours but can take less or more time to complete depending on selections. Press START to select the Sensor cycle or select another cycle appropriate for your load (see Cycle Guide).

6. Select options (varies by model)

• You can customize your cycles by pressing the options desired. If you change your mind, press the option again to turn off the option. Not all options are available for every cycle. If an invalid option is selected for a given cycle, the lights will flash. Adding options may increase the cycle time.

7. Start or resume a cycle

• NOTE: If needed, run hot water at the sink nearest your dishwasher until the water is hot. Turn off water.
• Push door firmly closed within 4 seconds of pressing Start. If door is not closed within 4 seconds, the Start button LED will flash, an audible tone will sound, and the cycle will not start.
• IMPORTANT: If the door is opened for any reason after the cycle is started (even during the Delay option), the Start button must be pressed again.

Cycle Guide

This information covers several different models. Your dishwasher may not have all of the cycles and options described.

IMPORTANT: The sensor in your dishwasher monitors the soil level. Cycle time and/or water usage can vary as the sensor adjusts the cycle for the best wash performance. If the incoming water is less than the recommended temperature or food soils are heavy, the cycle will automatically compensate by adding time, heat, and water as needed.

Dishwasher Care

Cleaning the Exterior

• Clean the exterior of the dishwasher with only a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent. If your dishwasher has a stainless steel exterior, it may have a coating that is resistant to fingerprints. Avoid using abrasive cleaning products on the exterior of the dishwasher.

Cleaning and Maintaining the Interior

• Many detergents may leave white spots or a white residue on dishware and on the interior of the dishwasher. Over time this residue can become unsightly and could affect dishwasher performance. Use of a dishwasher cleaning product such as affresh® Dishwasher Cleaner can help to remove the residue. Monthly use of affresh® Dishwasher Cleaner is recommended to help maintain the dishwasher. Follow package directions.
• NOTE: JennAir recommends the use of high-quality premeasured detergent tablets or packs and the use of rinse aid for dishwasher cleaning and daily care.
• If you have a drain air gap, check and clean it if the dishwasher isn’t draining well.
• To Reduce Risk of Property Damage During Vacation or Extended Time Without Use:
  • When you will not be using the dishwasher during the summer months, turn off the water and power supply to the dishwasher.
  • Make sure the water supply lines are protected against freezing conditions. Ice formations in the supply lines can increase water pressure and cause damage to your dishwasher or home. Damage from freezing is not covered by the warranty.
  • When storing your dishwasher in the winter, avoid water damage by having your dishwasher winterized by authorized service personnel.
