IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
FOR YOUR SAFETY
Read and observe all CAUTIONS and WARNINGS shown throughout these
instructions. While performing installations described in this booklet, gloves and
safety glasses or goggles should be worn. Basic precautions before use
• Read all instructions before using the dishwasher.
• NOTE: This Installation Manual does not cover every possible condition and
situation that may occur.
• Use the dishwasher only for the intended functions as described in this Installation
Manual.
• To ensure the longevity of the dishwasher’s optimal wash performance, we
recommend rinsing off any large pieces of food from your dishes prior to placing
them in the unit for a wash cycle.
• When loading items to be washed:
• Load sharp items and knives so that they are not likely to damage the door
seal, racks, spray arms, and tub.
• Load sharp items and knives with the handles up to reduce the risk of being cut
or suffering other injury.
• Do not wash plastic items (e.g. plastic tableware or Tupperware) unless they
are marked dishwasher-safe or the equivalent. If not marked, check with the
manufacturer for recommendation — items that are not dishwasher-safe may melt
and create a potential fire hazard.
• If the dishwasher drains into a garbage disposal, make sure disposal is
completely empty before running dishwasher.
• Do not tamper with the control panel on the dishwasher.
• Do not operate your dishwasher unless all enclosure panels are properly in place.
• Do not touch the heating element during or immediately after use, especially if the
sanitize option has been selected.
• Do not let children abuse, sit, or stand on the door or racks of the dishwasher, and
do not allow children to tamper with the spray arms, baskets, or other elements
inside the unit. Do not store or use combustible materials, gasoline, or other
flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
• Use only detergents or rinse agents recommended for use in a dishwasher and
keep them out of the reach of children and pets.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
• Some dishwasher detergents are strongly alkaline. They can be extremely
dangerous if swallowed. Avoid contact with the skin and eyes and keep children
away from the dishwasher when the door is open.
• 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 your home’s hot water system has not been used for a period of time, before
using the dishwasher again, let the water flow for several minutes. This will release
any accumulated hydrogen gas. Hydrogen gas is flammable. Do not smoke or
use an open flame during this time.
• Keep young children and infants away from dishwasher when it is operating.
• Do not use the dishwasher if it has a damaged power line or plug, and do not
plug the dishwasher into a damaged outlet; failure to observe these instructions
may result in electrical shock.
• Remove the door to the washing compartment when removing an old dishwasher
from service or discarding it.
• To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to play in or on a dishwasher.
• This dishwasher is intended for residential use only and should not be used in
commercial establishments. This appliance is not applicable for outdoor usage.
The manufacturer disclaims responsibility for damage or injury caused by

IMPORTANT NOTES
1. Water supply temperature should be between 120°F - 150°F (49°C - 66°C).
2. Dispose of the discarded appliance and packing material properly.
3. The dishwasher must be grounded or it can result in a risk of electric shock.
4. If there is any damage to the dishwasher, please contact ZLINE Customer Service
at 1-614-777-5004. Do to attempt to repair or replace any part by yourself. For
information on installing and setting up your dishwasher, refer to the Installation
Manual provided with your appliance.
BEFORE USING YOUR DISHWASHER
1. Remove the interior packing.
2. Clean the interior surface with lukewarm water using a soft cloth.
FINDING A SUITABLE LOCATION
• This dishwasher is designed to be built-in.
• The dishwasher door must be able to swing fully open.
PROVIDING A PROPER POWER SUPPLY
Check your local power source. This dishwasher requires a 120VAC, 60Hz power
supply. Refer to the Installation Manual for additional information.
HOW YOUR DISHWASHER CLEANS
The dishwasher fills with water, covering the filter area at the bottom. Water is
then pumped through the various filter and spray arms, spraying a mixture of hot
water and detergent against the soiled surfaces of your dishes and silverware. Soil
particles are separated and go down the drain as the dirty water is drained and
replaced with clean water. The number of water fills is determined by the cycle
selected.
WASH CYCLE SELECTIONS
Cycle times are approximate and will vary with options selected. Hot water is
necessary to activate dishwasher detergent and melt fatty food soils. An automatic
sensor checks the incoming water temperature and, if it is not hot enough, the timer
will be delayed to allow for the water to heat for the main wash of all cycles. This
happens even when hi-temp wash is selected, so that higher temperature will be
available to handle heavier soil loads.
OPERATION
6
Dishwasher Features
7
FILTER SYSTEM
Your dishwasher has a multiple filter system that includes four separate filter meshes. It
separates dirty water and clean water into different chambers. The multiple filter system
helps your dishwasher operate with better performance by using less water and less
energy.
SMART WASH SYSTEM
Your dishwasher has a smart wash system under the normal wash program that selects
the wash cycle based on how large and soiled the load is, permitting your dishwasher to
clean more efficiently every time. When a partial load of lightly soiled dishes is placed in
the unit, a short wash cycle is automatically selected. When a full load of heavily soiled
dishes is placed in the unit, a heavy wash cycle is automatically selected.
ADJUSTABLE UPPER RACK
The upper rack of your dishwasher can be raised or lowered to accommodate loading
dishes of varying heights in either rack. After removing the third rack, the upper rack
clearance height can be adjusted from 8" to 10" (203 mm to 254 mm). The lower rack
clearance height can be adjusted from 11" to 13" (279 mm to 330 mm). See “Adjusting
the Upper Rack” on page 12 for more details.

USING RINSE AID
FILLING THE RINSE AID DISPENSER
Your dishwasher is designed to use a liquid rinse aid. The use of rinse aid greatly
improves drying performance after the final rinse. Do not use a solid or bar-type rinse
aid. Under normal conditions, the rinse aid will last approximately one month. Try to
keep the dispenser full, but do not over fill it.
1. Turn rinse aid dispenser cap 1/4 turn counterclockwise and lift it out.
2. Add rinse aid until liquid touches the indicated fill level. Do not overfill since this
can cause over sudsing. Wipe up any spills with a damp cloth. The dispenser holds
enough for 35 to 140 washes, depending on the dial setting.
3. Replace the cap and turn it 1/4 turn clockwise.
OPERATION
18
Filling the Rinse Aid Dispenser
19
Rinse aid greatly improves drying and reduces water spots and filming. Without rinse aid, your
dishes and dishwasher interior will have excessive moisture. In addition, the heated dry option
will not perform as well without rinse aid. The rinse aid dispenser, located next to the detergent
cup, automatically releases a measured amount of rinse aid during the last rinse. If spotting and
poor drying is a problem, increase the amount of rinse aid dispensed by rotating the dial to a
higher number. The dial is located under the dispenser cap.
NOTE: While rinse aid will assist in the drying process, the dishwasher is not designed to
completely dry every dish. Some water will naturally accumulate in items that have reservoirs,
such as plastic containers and the bottom of coffee mugs. This is a normal occurrence in nearly
all dishwasher models.
WATER TEMPERATURE
Hot water is required for optimal dishwashing and drying results. Water entering the dishwasher
should be at least 120° F (49°C) to achieve satisfactory results. To check water temperature:
1. Turn on the hot water faucet near the dishwasher and let it run for several minutes.
2. Hold a thermometer (a candy or meat thermometer will work) in the water stream to check
the temperature. If temperature is below 120°F (49°C), have a qualified person raise the hot
water heater thermostat setting.
IMPORTANT: To make sure that the water entering the dishwasher is hot, run hot water from the
nearest hot water faucet to clear cool water from the pipe before starting the cycle.
HEAT DRY FUNCTION
The heat dry function, when used with a rinse aid, enhances drying performance. If you do not
choose the heat dry function, items in your load may be wetter than anticipated at the end of the
cycle.
WATER PRESSURE
For optimal performance, the hot water supply line for your dishwasher must provide water
pressure of at least 20 psi and not more than 120 psi. You may experience low water pressure
during high-demand periods, such as when laundry or showers are in use while you are washing
the dishes. To eliminate this problem, wait until hot water demand is reduced before starting the
dishwasher.

The inside of the dishwasher is self-cleaning under normal use. If needed, the tub
gasket can be cleaned with a damp cloth. Use a brush to clean the opening in the
end of the gasket.
CLEANING THE AIR GAP
If there is an air gap installed with your dishwasher, make sure it is clean so the
dishwasher will drain properly. Air gap is not part of your dishwasher. Before you
clean the air gap, turn off the dishwasher, then remove the plastic air gap cover and
clean with a toothpick.
