WARNING/GROUNDING INS
TRUCTIONS
Improper connection of the equipment-gr
ounding conductor can result
in a risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service
representative if you are in doubt whether the appliance is properly
grounded. Do not modify the plug if provided with the appliance. If the
plug will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified
electrician.
For a grounded, cord-connected appliance:
This appliance 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. If this appliance 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.
For a permanently connected appliance:
This appliance 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 appliance.
IMPORTANT S
AFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
When using your dishw
asher, follow basic precautions, including the

HOW YOUR DISHWASHER CLEANS
Your dishwasher cleans by spraying a mixture of hot water and detergent
through the spray arms against soiled surfaces.
The dishwasher fills with water covering the filter area. Water is then
pumped through the multiple filters and spray arms. Soil particles are
separated from the water and go down the drain as the water is pumped
out and replaced with clean water.
The number of water fills will vary depending on the cycle selected.
BEFORE USING YOUR DISHWASHER
1. Check the filters for debris that may have been introduced from the
packaging or during installation. See the “Clean Filters” section.
2. Add Rinse Aid. See “Proper Use of Rinse Aid.”
USING YOUR NEW DISHWASHER
NOTE: To decrease cycle time and possibly improve performance, turn on
the hot water faucet nearest to the dishwasher until the water runs hot.
Turn off the water.
1. Load dishwasher. See “Dishwasher Loading.”
2. Add detergent. See “Proper Use of Detergent.”
3. Select desired CYCLE and OPTIONS. See “Cycle and Option Charts.”

DISHWASHER LOADING
PREPARE DISHES
•
Empty liquids from glasses and cups.
•
Remove leftover food and other items from the dishes and discard.
•
It is not necessary to hand-rinse dishes before loading them into the
dishwasher with the following exceptions:
•
Foods such as mayonnaise, mustard, vinegar, lemon juice and
tomato-based products may discolor stainless steel and plastics if
allowed to remain on them for any length of time.
•
Burned-on foods should be loosened before loading the cookware
into the dishwasher.
LOAD DISHES
•
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 results, water must be able to drain from all surfaces.
•
Load heavy pots and pans carefully. Heavy items can dent the stainless
steel interior of the door if they are dropped or bumped.
•
Make sure pot lids and handles, pizza pans, cookie sheets, etc., do not
interfere with the spray arm rotation.
•
Make sure both the upper and lower spray arms are not blocked and
move freely.
QUIET OPERATING TIPS
To avoid thumping/clattering noises during operation:
•
Make sure lightweight 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.

IMPORTANT: Make sure the items loaded in the upper rack do not
interfere with the rotation of the middle spray arm located beneath
the upper rack. Check for interference by turning spray arm by hand.
•
Place items so that the open ends face downward for cleaning and
draining.
•
Load glasses and cups in upper rack only. The lower rack is not
designed for glasses and cups. Damage can occur.
•
Place cups and glasses in the rows between tines. Placing them over
the tines can lead to breakage, water spots, and poor cleaning.
•
Small bowls, pans and other utensils can be placed in the top rack.
Load bowls in the center section for best stability.
•
China, crystal and other delicate items must not touch each other
during dishwasher operation. Damage may occur.

ADJUSTABLE RACK TINES
The fold-down tines in the lower rack make it easier to load extra large or
hard-to-fit items such as serving bowls and roasters. The tines may be left
in the up position for normal use, or folded down for more flexible loading.
LOAD LOWER RACK
NOTE: The features on your dishwasher rack may vary from the drawings
shown.
•
Do not load glasses, cups, or plastic items in the lower rack.
•
Load small items in the lower rack only if they are secured in place.
•
Load plates, soup bowls, etc. between tines. Do not nest bowls
because the spray will not reach all surfaces.
•
Do not load items between the bottom rack and the side of the
dishwasher tub.
•
Place heavily soiled cookware face down in the rack.
20
LOADING SILVERWARE
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. DO NOT WASH ALUMINUM COOKWARE IN
YOUR DISHWASHER.
THREE-PIECE SILVERWARE BASKET
The silverware basket consists of three separate sections. For optimum
loading flexibility, the center section of the basket can be used
individually, joined with one or both side sections or removed.
•
Lift handle to remove the silverware basket and set the basket on a
counter or table top.
•
Lift up on each side section to disengage the center section from the
keyhole slots in the side sections.
•

silverware, OR load the silverware while the section(s) are on the
countertop and then replace the basket in the bottom rack.
a Keyhole Slots
b Prongs
a
b
21
For Best Results:
•
Load items with handles down, using the separators to prevent
silverware from nesting.
•
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.
•
Unload or remove the basket before unloading the racks to avoid water
drops from falling on the silverware.
•
When handles are up, 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. Be sure that nothing protrudes through bottom of the basket or
rack that may block the wash arm.

DISHWASHER USE
PROPER USE OF DETERGENT
IMPORTANT:
•
Use automatic dish washing detergent only. Other detergents can
produce excessive suds that can overflow out of the dishwasher and
reduce washing performance.
•
Add detergent just before starting a cycle.
•
Store detergent tightly closed in a cool, dry place. Fresh automatic
dishwasher detergent results in better cleaning.
DETERGENT DISPENSER
1. Push the dispenser cover release catch to open the main wash
detergent compartment.
NOTE:
The flap is always open at the end of a dishwashing cycle.
2. Add the recommended amount of detergent to the detergent
compartment.
24
HOW MUCH DETERGENT TO USE
The amount of detergent to use depends on the soil level of your load, the
type of detergent used and the hardness of your water.
•
If you use too little detergent, dishes won’t be clean.
•
If you have soft water and use too much detergent, glassware will etch.
Water Hardness
Water hardness varies depending on your water source. For the best
results, your dishwasher is designed to operate with water that has a
hardness of no more than 7 grains per gallon. Test kits are available from
all major appliance parts retail outlets. If your water has a hardness over 8
grains per gallon, you may consider installing a water softener or regularly
use an additive to enhance the performance of your detergent.
PROPER USE OF RINSE AID
Rinse aid prevents water from forming droplets that can dry as spots or
streaks. A small amount of the rinse aid is released into the final rinse
water, which allows water to drain from the dishes.
Rinse aid greatly improves drying performance after the final rinse.
Your dishwasher is designed to use a LIQUID rinse aid. Do not use a solid
or bar-type rinse aid.
3. Press down on the top of the cover to secure.
RINSE AID DISPENSER
Under normal conditions, you will need to fill the rinse aid dispenser
approximately once a month. Rinse aid is released through an opening in
the dispenser. You do not need to wait until the dispenser is empty to refill
it. Try to keep it full, but be careful not to overfill it.
25
To refill the rinse aid dispenser
1. Lift up the end tab of rinse aid cover to open.
2. Fill the rinse aid dispenser with liquid rinse aid until full.
DO NOT overfill.

DISHWASHER CARE
CLEANING
CLEANING THE EXTERIOR
In most cases, regular use of a soft, damp cloth or sponge and a mild
detergent is all that is necessary to clean outside of your dishwasher.
Clean the stainless steel door and handle regularly with a clean, soft cloth
to remove debris.
IMPORTANT: Do not use appliance wax, polish, bleach, or products
containing chlorine to clean the stainless steel door.
Control Panel
Gently clean the control panel with a clean, soft cloth.
CLEANING THE INTERIOR
The tub is made of stainless steel designed to resist rust and corrosion if
the dishwasher is scratched or dented.
Hard water minerals can cause a white film to build up on the inside
surfaces, especially just beneath the door area.
Do not clean the dishwasher interior until it has cooled. Wear rubber
gloves. Do not use any type of cleanser other than dishwasher detergent
because it may cause foaming or create suds.
DOOR GASKET
Clean the steel inner door and tub with a clean, soft damp cloth.
Using a damp cloth, clean around the door gasket regularly to remove
food particles.
28
Mistake on my end. Didn't realize that this
part of the table was a continuation of the
table on the previous page
.
CONTROL PANEL
Clean the Control Panel gently with a lightly dampened cloth.
CLEANING THE FILTERS
Check and clean the filters regularly for best performance.
1. Remove the lower dishwasher rack.

6. Inspect both the Fine filter and the Micro filter for debris, and then
clean them by holding the filters under slow running water.
NOTE: A stiff, plastic bristle brush may be needed to remove some
debris.
7. Reinstall the filters in reverse order making sure the Cylinder filter locks
into place.
29
DRAIN AIR GAP
Check the drain air gap anytime your dishwasher isn’t draining well.
Some state or local plumbing codes require the addition of a drain air
gap between a built-in dishwasher and the home drain system. If a drain
is clogged, a drain air gap prevents water from backing up into the
dishwasher.
The drain air gap is usually located on top of the sink or countertop near
the dishwasher.
NOTE: The drain air gap is an external plumbing device that is not part of
your dishwasher. The warranty provided with your dishwasher does not
cover service costs directly associated with the cleaning or repair of the
external drain air gap.
To Clean the Drain Air Gap:
Clean the drain air gap periodically to ensure proper drainage of
your dishwasher. Follow the cleaning instructions provided by the
manufacturer.
With most types:
1. Turn off the dishwasher.
2. Lift off the metal cover, and then unscrew the plastic cap.
3. Clean the plastic cap with a toothpick.
STORING
STORING FOR THE SUMMER
Protect your dishwasher during the summer months by turning off the
water supply and power supply to the dishwasher.
WINTERIZING YOUR DISHWASHER
Protect your dishwasher and home against water damage caused by
freezing water lines. If your dishwasher is left in a seasonal dwelling or
could be exposed to near freezing temperatures, have your dishwasher
winterized by authorized service personnel.
Prepare for Storage:
1. Turn off electrical power to the dishwasher.
2. Turn off the water supply.
3. Place a pan under the inlet valve, and then disconnect the water line
from the inlet valve.
4. Disconnect the drain line from the pump and drain water into the pan.
30
Prepare for Use:
1. Reconnect the water, drain and electrical power supply.
2. Turn on water and electrical power supply.
3. Fill detergent cup and run the dishwasher through a heated wash
cycle.
4. Check the connections for leaks.
