Feature Overview

How your dishwasher cleans

Your dishwasher cleans by spraying a mixture of hot water and detergent through the spray arms against

soiled surfaces. First, the dishwasher drains for a few seconds to remove soils dropped while loading,

then ﬁ lls with water covering the ﬁ lter area. Water is then pumped through the spray arms. Soil particles

go through and across the ﬁ lter and down the drain as the water is pumped out. This series of steps are

repeated as needed. The number of water ﬁ lls varies with the cycle being used.

Getting Started

To run your dishwasher, follow these basic steps:

1. Load Dishwasher (See Preparing and Loading

Dishes).

2. Add detergent (See Dishwasher Dispenser &

Detergents).

3. Add Rinse Aid, if needed (See Rinse Aid).

4. Run hot water faucet nearest dishwasher until

water is hot. Turn water off.

5. Select desired CYCLE (See Cycle Selections

Chart).

6. Select desired OPTION (See Energy Option

Selection).

7. To start, press START pad and close door

immediately.

Operating Instructions

Normal Operating Sounds

Your dishwasher uses energy efﬁ cient motors

for the wash and drain portions of the cycle you

select. Each cycle has a series of water ﬁ lls and

drains for washing and rinsing dishes. As each

cycle begins, you may or may not hear the drain

motor. You may also hear the splashing of water as

it enters the tub and the spray arms as they rotate

and circulate water. The wash motor often pulsates

throughout the cycle, which varies water pressure

and optimizes performance.

Energy Use

The yellow energy guide label that came on your

unit tells how much energy it would use in one year

and how it compares to others that are available.

The energy is based on the Normal cycles

response to tests that apply soils and dishware that

simulate the average use. Eight place settings of

dishware and some serving pieces are used during

the test. The total energy is based on running

the average number of cycles per year, applying

typical soil levels to the dishware and half the time,

selecting the option of using extra energy to more

fully dry the dishware. Actual energy and water use

will depend upon the cycle and options you select.

This will help the cleaning and it will also get the

dishwasher hotter. When the ﬁ nal drain removes

all standing water, the extra heat stored in the

dishware will act to evaporate the remaining water.

Your unit provides a selection of cycles. In general,

the more water used by a cycle and the hotter the

temperatures it reaches the more energy that it

uses. Several cycles, such as the Normal cycle will

change their response based on soil level, options

selected, and ambient conditions. The Normal

cycle is good for all around use. Other cycles are

focused toward special use like the Heavy cycle

that is designed for heavily solid cookware.

If the user prefers to save energy and dry the

dishes by hand they select air dry instead of

heated dry. Air dry is still an option. If you prefer to

spend slightly more energy to get the dishes drier

then turn the air dry option off. In response the

wash and rinse temperatures in the cycle will be

increased.

This unit uses an in-line water heating element

that is located under the tub. There is no exposed

heater that plasticware might come in contact

with or that is accessible to touch. The heat is

taken to the dishware through the heated water.

For this reason, plastic dishware may be placed

where it best ﬁ ts in either the top or bottom

rack. Temperatures are uniform throughout the

dishwasher.

Normal Operating Lights

Your dishwasher pad lights when either the Cycle

or Option desired is selected. All cycle and option

pads have a white back light when the pads are

deselected and turn blue when selected. In Delay

selection and Rinse Aid setting, the deselected

pads are turned off.

NOTE

Your unit has DishSense

TM

Technology that

is used to understand how heavily soiled the

dish load is so the cycle can be automatically

adjusted to the appropriate response. This

helps to prevent energy waste. The sensor is

calibrated at the end of the cycle. For the ﬁ rst

cycle after power is applied (when ﬁ rst installed

or after a power failure) the sensor will not be

calibrated and so cannot determine the soil

load. Therefore, your unit will provide a response

suitable for heavy soils on the ﬁ rst run after power

is restored. This will assure that whatever is

loaded will be cleaned. Energy use during this

ﬁ rst run may be higher than would be typical.

Operating Instructions

Wash Cycle Selections

Cycle times are approximate and vary by options

selected. Hot water is necessary to activate

dishwasher detergent and melt fatty food soils.

An automatic sensor checks the water temperature

for the main wash of each cycle. When HI-TEMP

is selected, the sensor checks for an even higher

temperature. Run hot water in a faucet nearest the

dishwasher until water is hot before starting.

Cycle Selections

The Smart Sensor checks the soil level on your

dishes in the Auto, Normal and Eco cycles. Cycle

time and water usage will vary based on the

amount of soil on the dishes.

The dishwasher’s Smart Sensor technology will

determine the type of cycle required to clean the

dishes and will clean more efﬁ ciently every time.

When a partial load of lightly soiled dishes are

placed in the unit, a wash cycle similar to a short

wash will automatically be performed. When a full

load of heavily solid dishes are placed in the unit, a

heavy wash cycle will automatically be performed.

Water usage ranges from approximately 3.0 to 7.4

gallons. Wash time ranges from approximately 118

to 200 mins.

Scrape away large pieces of food, bones, pits,

toothpicks, etc. The continuously ﬁ ltered wash ﬂ uid

will remove remaining food particles. Burned-on

foods should be loosened before loading. Empty

liquids from glasses and cups.

Foods such as mustard, mayonnaise, vinegar,

lemon juice and tomato based products may

cause discoloration of stainless steel and plastics

if allowed to sit for a long period of time. Unless

the dishwasher is to be operated at once, it is best

to pre-rinse or use the rinse only cycle to rinse off

these food soils.

Load racks so that large items do not prevent the

detergent dispenser from opening.

Check manufacturer’s recommendations before

washing items in question.

If the dishwasher drains into a Food Disposer, be

sure disposer is completely empty before starting

dishwasher.

Features and appearance of racks and silverware

basket may vary from your model.

Adding a dish

15

Dishwasher Dispenser & Detergents

The detergent dispenser has one covered cup.

The covered cup opens automatically to release

detergent.

• Use only fresh automatic dishwashing

detergent. Other detergents may cause

oversudsing.

• When using automatic dishwashing detergent

tabs, place one tab in main wash cup and

close.

• Add detergent just before starting cycle.

• Store detergent in a cool, dry location. Moist or

caked detergent may not dissolve properly.

Filing the Detergent Dispenser

CAUTION

The use of industrial grade detergent can damage

parts of the dishwasher leading to damage to

the unit and surrounding property. Use only

household grade automatic dishwasher detergent.

NOTE

Hard water may cause lime deposit buildup

on the interior of the dishwasher. For cleaning

instructions see “Removing Spots and Film”

section.

How much Detergent to use

The amount of detergent to use depends on the

water hardness. Water hardness is measured in

grains per gallon. Using too little detergent can

result in poor cleaning and hard water ﬁ lming or

spotting. Using too much detergent in soft water

can cause etching to some glassware which is

surface damage that appears like a ﬁ lm but cannot

be wiped off. Your local water company, water

softener company or county extension agent can

tell you the water hardness in your area.

cycles. If one of these products are used, place

the tab or pack directly on the bottom of the tub

in a corner before starting the dishwasher, rather

than placing these products in the dispenser.

Rinse Aid

Rinse aid greatly improves drying, reduces water

spots, ﬁ lming, and lubricates wash arm bearing for

proper rotation. With it water “sheets” off dishes

rather than forming water droplets that cling and

leave spots.

A dispenser, located next to the detergent cup,

automatically releases a measured amount of rinse

aid during the last rinse. If spotting and poor drying

are problems, increase the amount of rinse aid

dispensed. The indicator will be dark when full and

the status window will show LOW RINSE when it is

time to reﬁ ll.

Do not overﬁ ll since this can cause oversudsing.

Wipe up any spills with a damp cloth.

The dispenser holds enough for 11 to 66 washes,

depending on setting.

To add liquid rinse aid, open the cover. Pour in

rinse aid until liquid touches the indicated ﬁ ll level.

Close the cover.

Water Pressure

The hot water line to dishwasher must provide

water pressure between 20 and 120 psi.

Low water pressure may occur when laundry or

showers are in operation. If you experience poor

wash performance you may need to wait until water

use is reduced before starting dishwasher.

How to adjust the rinse aid

dosage

The rinse aid dosage is shown in the Status

Window. Press and hold the RINSE pad for 5

seconds until the Status Window shows L1, L2,

L3 or L4, RINSE pad illuminates with white light,

while the other pads are off. Pressing “RINSE” pad

will change the levels. Once the Rinse-aid level

reaches L4, the level will go back to L1 and start

the count over. Press START pad to save setting,

the setting will be shown for 10 seconds. Press

START pad to save.

Water Temperature

Hot water is needed for best dishwashing and

drying results. Water entering dishwasher should

be at least 120

o

F (49

o

C) to give satisfactory results.

To check water temperature entering dishwasher:

• Turn on hot water faucet nearest dishwasher

for several minutes to clear cool water from

pipes.

• Hold a candy or meat thermometer in the water

stream to check the temperature.

• If temperature is below 120

o

F (49

o

C), have

a qualiﬁ ed person raise the hot water heater

thermostat setting.

IMPORTANT

Before starting a cycle, run hot water to clear

cool water from pipes.

Not selecting the AIR DRY option in

combination with rinse aid will enhance drying

performance. The energy required to use the

AIR DRY option saves pennies per cycle. You

may choose to select the AIR DRY option;

however you will have items in your dish load

that will not be completely dry at the end of the

cycle.

Factors Affecting Performance

nonabrasive detergent and water. Rinse and dry.

Care of Drain Air Gap

If a drain air gap was installed for your built-in

dishwasher, check to make sure it is clean so the

dishwasher will drain properly. A drain air gap is

usually mounted on the counter top and can be

inspected by removing the cover. This is not part

of your dishwasher and is not covered by warranty.

Clean the Coarse Filter

Take out the Cylinder Fine Filter and remove the

Coarse Filter from the dishwasher tub bottom.

Flush the Coarse Filter by holding it under running

water and replace.

Solutions to Common Problems

Glassware/Flatware Spotted or Cloudy

• Check water hardness. For extremely hard

water, it may be necessary to install a water

softener. (See Detergent Chart).

• Water temperature may be low. Avoid

extremely low or high temperatures. (See

Factors Affecting Performance.

• Avoid overloading and improper loading. (See

Preparing and Loading Dishes).

• Use fresh detergent. Old detergent is

ineffective.

• Make sure rinse aid dispenser is ﬁ lled.

• Check to see that proper amount of detergent

is being used for cycle selected. Also, check

phosphate level. (See Detergent Dispenser.)

• Home water pressure may be too low - it

should be 20 to 120 pounds per square inch

(psi).

Water in Bottom of Tub

• Water left in the tub bottom after the cycle is

complete is not normal. If water remains in the

bottom of the tub, the dishwasher may not be

draining properly. (See Dishwasher Does not

Drain Properly).

Dishware Chipped

• Load with care and do not overload. (See

Preparing and Loading Dishes).

• Place delicate items in top rack.

• Place glasses securely against pins and not

over pins.

• Load items so they are secure and don’t jar

loose when moving racks in and out. Move

racks in and out slowly.

• Make sure tall glasses and stemware will clear

top of tub when rack is pushed in.

Dishware Stained or Discolored

• Tea and coffee can stain cups. Remove the

stains by hand washing in a solution of 1/2 cup

(120 ml) bleach and one quart (1L) of warm

water. Rinse thoroughly.

• Aluminum utensils can leave gray/black marks

when they rub against other items. Load

Properly.

• Certain high acid foods can cause discoloration

of stainless steel and plastics if allowed to sit

for a long period. Use the Rinse Only cycle or

rinse by hand if not operating dishwasher at

once.

• Mixing stainless steel and silver utensils in

silverware basket can cause pitting of the

stainless steel blades. Avoid mixing stainless

steel and silver.

Cycle Takes a Long Time

• Is cycle in a water heating delay?

• Has the delay start option been selected?

• Has the sanitize option been selected?

Normal Sounds You Will Hear

• Normal sounds include water ﬁ ll, water

circulation and motor sounds.

Dishwasher Leaks

• Use only fresh detergent designed for

automatic dishwashers. Measure detergent

carefully. Try a different brand.

Etching

• Using too much detergent especially in soft or

softened water causes damage that looks like

a ﬁ lm but cannot be removed.

• Adjust the amount of detergent based on the

water hardness. (Check Detergent Chart).

• Lower the water temperature.

• Iron deposits in water can cause a yellow or

brown ﬁ lm. A special ﬁ lter installed in the

water supply line will correct this problem. (See

Removing Spots and Film).

Detergent Left in Dispenser Cup

• Detergent may be old. Discard and use fresh

detergent.

• Be sure the dish load doesn’t block spray from

entering the detergent cup.

• Check to see if cycle has been completed.

• Make sure items do not prevent the detergent

dispenser from opening.
