OPERATING YOUR DISHWASHER
1. Prepare and load the dishwasher
10-place load – upper rack 10-place load – lower rack
8-place load—upper rack 8-place load—lower rack
Racks vary by model
IMPORTANT:
Remove leftover food, bones, toothpicks, and other
hard items from dishes. Remove labels from containers before
washing.
■ Make sure when dishwasher door is closed, no items are blocking
detergent dispenser.
■ Items should be loaded with soiled surfaces facing down and
inward to the spray as shown in the graphics above. This will
improve cleaning and drying results. Angle dirtiest dish surface
downward, allowing space for water to ow up through rack and
between dishes.
■ Avoid overlapping items, like bowls or plates, that may trap food.
■ Place plastics, small plates, and glasses in upper rack.
■ Wash only items marked “dishwasher safe.”
■ To avoid thumping/clattering noises during operation, load dishes
so they do not touch one another. Make sure lightweight load
items are secured in racks.
■ Use slots in the covers and suggested loading patterns to keep
your silverware separated for optimum wash.

■ If your silverware does not t
into the designated slots, lift
and slide covers off to remove
them and mix silverware types
to keep them separated.
■ When loading silverware,
always place sharp items
pointing down and avoid
‟nestingˮ as shown.
2. Check that all arms spin freely
Items in the rack can block
the spray arms.
3. Add detergent
Premeasured Detergents
High-quality premeasured tablets
and packs are recommended for
improved performance.
Quality tablets and packs have been
proven better than powder, liquid, or
gel detergents at reducing lming on
dishes. Using tablets and packs over
time will start to reduce or eliminate
white lm. They are suitable for all water
hardness and soil levels. Also, by using a rinse aid, you can minimize
repeat buildup of white lm (not all packs and tablets contain rinse
aid). Always place premeasured detergents in main compartment
and close lid.
NOTE: Follow instructions on the package when using other dishwasher
detergent types. See the complete User Instructions for more details
about powders, liquids, and gels.
■ Use automatic dishwasher detergent only. Add detergent just
before starting a cycle.
■ Fresh automatic dishwasher detergent results in better cleaning.
Store tightly closed detergent container in a cool, dry place.

Open the detergent dispenser
by sliding release (A) to the left
and the cover (B) will automatically
slide open.
4. Add rinse aid
■ Your dishwasher is designed to use rinse aid for good drying
performance. Without rinse aid, your dishes and dishwasher
interior will have excessive moisture. The heating and drying
options will not perform as well without rinse aid.
■ Rinse aid keeps water from forming droplets that can dry as
spots or streaks. It also improves drying by allowing water to
drain off of dishes after nal rinse. Rinse aid does not adhere
to dishware, and when used, it is dispensed during each cycle.
