Wash System
Your Kenmore dishwasher filters 100% of the
water for optimum cleaning. The wash system
uses alternating arms to save water and
energy and includes a heavy-duty stainless
steel food disposer that grinds up large food
particles.
How the wash system works
1. Load the dishwasher (See Preparing and
Loading Dishes).
2. Hot water enters the dishwasher and covers
the filter.
3. Detergent is dispensed at the appropriate time
and mixed with the hot water. This mixture is
pumped through the lower spray arm and
sprays against the soiled surfaces of the
dishes to remove food particles.
4. Water passes through the fine mesh primary
filter where food soit is removed and the clean
water is then recircutated.
5. Ports under the bower wash arm direct the food
soil through a secondary filter into a collection
chamber.
6. Food soil is held in the collection chamber until
it is flushed away during the drain cycle.
7. Clean, hot water enters the dishwasher and
the sequence is repeated.
8. Beginning with the third water fill, the wash
action switches between the lower spray arm
and middle spray arm in 90 second intervals.
You may notice a change in sound as the
wash action pauses and switches to the other
arm.
9. The dishwasher may pause during the cycle
while water is being heated. Wash action will
continue during this time.
10. Rinse aid is automatically dispensed in the final
rinse to aid in drying.
Water Heating Delay
This dishwasher is equipped with a thermostat to
ensure that the water is heated to the proper
temperature to deliver optional cleaning and drying
results. The knob/timer on the dishwasher may
pause at approximately the 7pm position.
The dishwasher is not "stuck" here, but is simply
heating the water to the proper temperature before
advancing. If the dishwasher holds this position
on every cycle, then the incoming (house) water
temperature may be low. A minimum water
temperature of 120F is recommended to avoid this
water heating delay.
