Loading the Lower & Upper rack:
To get maximum cleaning result, follow the
recommendations below before you start
the dishwasher:
Note: Do not wash any heat sensitive or any other
items that are not designed for automatic
dishwasher.
(upper rack)
• Keep all tall dishware and food containers away from the spray arm rotation.
• Place food containers such as cups, glasses, bowls, saucepans and casseroles with
soiled surface facing in downward position.
• To avoid any type of damage to glassware such as
coffee/tea cups, beverage, wine and champagne
glasses, do not load them on the bottom rack, Place
these items on the upper rack,
lower rack)
• Put cups upside down on the top of cup/stemware
rack and put wine or champagne glasses upside
down between the divided segments of the cup/stemware rack to
secure them properly,
Note: Do not wash dinner plates bigger than 10 1/4" diameter,
Loading Silverware Basket:
Simply remove the basket out of the dishwasher to load silverware and place it back
once you finish loading,
• To avoid any type of injury, load knives and forks face down.
• Try to mix spoons, knives and forks for better cleaning and drying and to
prevent nesting.
• Do not mix stainless steel and silver items because you may
damage silver finish on silver items,
• Do not load tall items next to upper spray arm because it
could be blocked,
• Do not load dishware or food containers that are made of
wood or iron, These items are not considered dishwasher safe,
• Do not load tin, pewter and non-dishware filters. These items
are not considered dishwasher safe.
lO
Proper Use of Detergent:
• The amount of detergent to use depends on the type of water in your living area
whether it is hard or soft and whether items are lightly or heavily soiled.
• Water softness or hardness is measured in grains content per gallon. You can find
out grains level by calling your local Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in
your county.
• If you find that "grains" level is higher in the water then the water will be harder
in your living area so you will need more detergent to clean. If "grains" level is
lower then the water will be softer in your living area so you will need less
detergent to clean.
See the following table to understand the "water hardness type" and "grains" level.
Water Hardness Type Level of Grains in the water
Hard 10+
Medium 4-9
Soft 0-3
Note: If "grains" level is over 12 then water is very hard. You may need water
softener to improve the water quality and the performance of
your dishwashing.
Note:
The quality of detergent will make the big difference of cleaning your dishes.
If you are using detergent that is damp, clumsy or too old then this type of
detergent will not be as effective to clean because of active ingredients are
phased off and the detergent will not work properly.
Note:
Use only manufacturer's recommended "Automatic Dishwasher Detergent"
only for your dishwasher. Other types of detergents that are not for
dishwasher use may cause oversudsing and foaming. Do not use detergents
that are dried, caked or moist. These types of detergents will not dissolve
properly and clean effectively.
11
Pouring Dishwasher Detergent:
Use proper recommended amount of detergent for your wash loads. Measure and
pour detergent into the large compartment for the main wash. The detergent for
pre-wash goes into the small compartment next to the main wash compartment.
Note: For the pre-wash you should use one-half the amount of detergent that you
use for the main wash.

Advantages of Rinse Agent:
Rinse agent helps in removing spots and prevents new film build-up on your dishes,
glasses, flatware, cookware and plastic,
Note: Use only liquid form of rinse agent in the dispenser.
Pouring Liquid Rinse Aid into the Dispenser:
Use proper recommended amount of rinse aid for your wash loads, The rinse aid
dispenser is located next to the detergent dispenser. During the wash cycle, it
automatically releases a preset amount of rinse aid during the last rinse cycle,

16
Checking Water Temperature:
• Your incoming water must be between at least 120°F / 49°C and most
150°F / 66°C but no more than 150°F / 66°C in order to have effective
cleaning and prevent damage to your dishware.
Note: The minimum incoming temperature must be at 120°F/49°C in order to
dissolve detergent properly.
If you are not sure of what degree your hot water temperature is at:
1, Simply open the hot water faucet and let it run for a minute and fill a glass,
2. Take a thermometer and check the temperature of the water.
3, If the temperature is below 120°F / 49°C, then you need to adjust water
regulator in order to maintain that temperature level.
Note: We recommend that you select hot water instead of cold water from the
faucet to reduce the time to heat up the water and to have the detergent
properly dissolve in the water quickly in order to clean the dishware
effectively. Your unit is equipped with heater that will automatically increase
the water temperature quickly to remove grease and soil off the dishware
and dissolve detergent properly.
Overflowing Protection:
• in the event the water flowing into the machine is not cut off as foreseen by the
program and the water level rises above the highest acceptable point, the security
pressure switch automatically activates the drainage pump which immediately
empties the water,
• This happens when the machine is operating (ON). When the machine is in
"OFF" position, the water supply to the dishwasher must be shut at the end of the
program in order to isolate the machine from the pressure in the network, This is
especially necessary if you will be absent from your home,
17
Understanding Your Filtration System:
For your convenience, the filtration system is located at the bottom under lower rack
with in easy reach inside the tub, It is three level filtration system: Main filter, Coarse
filter and Fine filter,
fine filter
Main Filter: The purpose of this filter is to trap food and soil particles.
Coarse Filter: The purpose of this filter is to trap large items such as pieces of
bone or glass that might clog the drain,
Fine Filter: The purpose of this filter is to trap and hold tiny soil and food residue
and prevent it from being re-deposited on the dishes during a cycle,
Warning: Never run your dishwasher without the filters in place.
18
Tips to avoid stains and films:
The following suggestions are recommended to prevent stains and films
from dishware and utensils items:
• You must rinse all dishware, silverware, glassware and food containers right a
way after use. Some citric based food products, coffee, tea and iron deposits in
water can cause yellow or brown film on inside surface when left on for a long
time and not rinsed immediately,
• You must check your water hardness to see whether you need to use more or less
detergent to wash. Jfwater is extremely hard then it may be causing stains on
items, You may need to use water softener,
• Do not over load the dishwasher.
• Avoid improper loading.
• Make sure there is a proper water temperature that is recommended to
wash dishware.
• Do not use too little detergent,
• Do not use old or damp powder detergent.
• Do not load aluminum utensils improperly, Aluminum utensils can cause gray or
black marks to porcelain utensils if touching during wash cycle,
19
General Cleaning and Maintenance:
• Do not use abrasive, harsh cleaners, solvents, concentrated detergents or metal
scouring pads to clean the inside of dishwasher.
• Use warm soapy water with soft brush or piece of cloth to clean the interior
of a tub.
• Clean around the tub gasket with a damp cloth.
• When cleaning control panel, use a lightly dampened cloth around it then dry
thoroughly.
• When cleaning exterior cabinet, use lightly soapy water with soft piece of cloth.
• Do not use any sharp objects that can scratch the cabinet surface,
Cleaning Dishwasher Filters:
• The filters are located inside of the dishwasher at the bottom front below
the lower rack,
• After wash and dry cycle is finished, you must wait few minutes until the
dishwasher is completely cooled off in order to remove the filters to clean.
• Remove the lower rack first in order to take the filter out.
• Remove and clean any residue off the filters using soap and water; then wipe
them off with a soft piece of cloth.
• After you finish cleaning the filters place them back to their original position in
the dishwasher.
• We recommend that you wash and clean all three filters gently in hot, soapy
water and rinse them thoroughly periodically to clean soil and chemical build up
on the filters.
20
Preventing Your Dishwasher from Freezing:
You must protect your dishwasher if it is left in an unheated place during the winter,

22
Dishware chipped:
• This is due to poor loading or overloading. You need to be careful when loading.
Do not overload. You need to place glassware securely against pins. Make sure
delicate items are on the side rack. We recommend that fine chinaware or crystal
items should be hand washed.
Noise:
Some of the sounds you will hear are normal.
• You will hear sound of the water fill and rinse.
• You will hear drain valve opening to pump water out.
• You will hear motor stopping at the end of the cycle.
• if some utensils are not secure in the rack, you will hear that they are being tossed
around the tub.
Oversudsing:
This is due to use of regular hand washing detergent.
You may need to check if the detergent is for "Automatic Dishwasher Use". If not
then you need to use the proper detergent that is for dishwasher.
Dishware has an odor:
• This is due to incomplete cycle.
You need to allow cycle to be fully completed.
• New scented detergent used.
This is normal because different types of detergents may have different frgrances.
Etching:
• Too much detergent used.
Use the appropriate amount of detergent. Reduce amount of detergent
used per load.

Avoid using old detergent. Read expiration date. Use only fresh detergent.
• Vented dry heat is too harsh on some dishware.
You may need to use air dry option by leaving your door open for a while.
Stained in interior tub:
• Some detergents contain colorant known as "pigment" or "dyes" that will discolor
the tub with extended use. You need to change detergent without any colorant.
Read container label carefully before use of the detergent,
• Some "acid based" and "paste based" foods may discolor the tub. Use of rinse
cycle helps to decrease the level of staining.
Spots & filming found on flatware/glassware:
This is due to:
• Use of too little detergent.
• Low incoming water temperature and pressure,
• Improper loading.
• Use of old, moist and damp powder detergent,
• Hard water in you area.
Draining Problem:
• Check the level of the drain hose, The drain hose should be positioned above the
drain in order to drain properly. (See Installation Section on page #27)
• If the drain hose is bent or shrunken, it may affect water draining.
• If water can not be drained out smoothly, the dishwasher operation will be
disturbed and it may stop in the middle of the cycle.
