4 This appliance is intended to be used in household and similar environments.
Basic precautions before use:
• Read all instructions before using the dishwasher.
• The manual does not cover every possible condition and situation that may occur.
• Use the dishwasher only for its intended function as described in this manual.
• When loading items to be washed:
• Load sharp items and knives so that they are not likely to damage the door seal and tub.
• Load sharp items and knives with the handles up to reduce the risk of cut-type injury.
• Do not wash plastic items unless they are marked dishwasher safe or the equivalent. If not marked, check with the
manufacturer for their 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 that the disposal is completely empty before running the
dishwasher.
• Do not tamper with the controls.
• 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 the racks of the dishwasher.
• 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 the hot water system has not been used for such a period, before using, turn
on all hot water faucets and let water flow from each 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.
• 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.
• Keep young children and infants away from the dishwasher when it is operating.
• Do not use the dishwasher if it has a damaged power cord 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.

Features
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.
Filter system
Your dishwasher has a multiple filter system which includes four separate filter meshes. It separates dirty water and clean
water into different chambers. The multiple filter system helps your dishwasher to get better performance with less water
and less energy.
Smart wash system
Your dishwasher has a smart wash system under the normal wash program which selects the wash cycle based on how
large and how 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. The upper rack clearance height can be adjusted from 8" to 10" (20 to 25 cm). The lower rack clearance height can be
adjusted from 11" to 13" (28 to 33 cm). See "Loading the upper rack" on page 10.
