WATER HEATER SAFETY
Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a water heater that has not been used for two or more weeks.
HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE.
If the hot water has not been used for two or more weeks, prevent the possibility of damage or injury by turning on all hot
water faucets and allowing them to run for several minutes. Do this before using any electrical appliance connected to
the hot water system. This simple procedure will allow any built-up hydrogen gas to escape. Since the gas is flammable,
do not smoke, use an open flame, or use the appliance during this process.
RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT
PROPER DISPOSAL OF THE DISHWASHER
Junked or abandoned dishwashers are dangerous…even if they will sit for “just a few days.” If you
are getting rid of your dishwasher, please follow the instructions below to help prevent accidents.
Do not allow children to play with, on, or inside this or any discarded appliance.
Take off the door of the washing compartment or remove the latch by removing the two screws

service.
GEAppliances.com
The detergent dispenser is located in the center of
the dishwasher door. It has two compartments. The
main wash compartment is found inside the detergent
dispenser. To open, press the button on the side of the
dispenser. The pre-wash compartment is on the lid of
the detergent dispenser. Use the pre-wash compartment
only when your water is extremely hard or when you
have a heavy soiled load. The pre-wash compartment
is not used when tablet or packet detergents are used.
NOTE: Do not load large items in the lower rack where
they may block the wash jets from rinsing out the
detergent dispenser.
You may use tablet, packet, powder, liquid or gel
automatic dishwasher detergent. Make sure you use
only detergents specifically labeled for use in automatic
dishwashers. Never use liquid hand dish detergent
in an automatic dishwasher. Sudsing and poor wash
performance will result with the use of improper
detergents.
Detergents should be stored in a dry location and in their
original container to prevent loss of effectiveness. Place
detergent in the cup just prior to starting the dishwasher
and then close the cover. The cover will open during the
wash cycle.
Filling the Detergent Dispenser
GE Appliances recommends using detergent in tablet or
packet form. Independent testing has shown this form of
detergent is very effective in the dishwasher. Cascade
®
Platinum ActionPacs
are an example of this type of
detergent. Simply put a tablet or packet into the main
wash compartment and slide to close the detergent cup
cover. Please notice that the tablet or packet must be
placed in the main wash compartment of the detergent
cup. If the tablet or packet is placed in the prewash
compartment or tossed in the bottom of the dishwasher,
the detergent will be flushed down the drain in a very
short period of time and will thus be wasted. Wash
performance will be very poor as a result.
If you choose to use detergent in powder, liquid or gel
form, the amount of detergent you use will be determined
by the hardness of your water, the temperature of your
water, and the food soil load inside the dishwasher.
Contact your water company to get information about
the hardness of the water in your area. Water hardness is
measured in grains per gallon. Use this information and
the table above to determine the amount of detergent
to use. You may purchase a hard water test strip from
GE Appliances. Call 1-877-959-8688 and ask for part
number WD01X10295. In Canada, call 1-800-661-1616.
Using too much detergent with very soft and/or very
hot water may cause a condition called etching on your
glassware. Etching is a permanent cloudiness in your
glassware. This condition is irreversible. However, using
too little detergent will cause poor wash performance.
Use the table as a starting point and then adjust the
amount of detergent you use. Use just enough to get
good wash performance. Using just the right amount of
detergent will provide great wash performance without
wasting detergent or etching glassware.
DO NOT USE HAND DISH DETERGENT
NOTE: Using a detergent that is not specifically designed
for dishwashers will cause the dishwasher to fill with
suds. During operation, these suds will spill out of the
dishwasher vents, covering the kitchen floor and making
the floor wet.
Because so many detergent containers look alike, store
the dishwasher detergent in a separate space from
all other cleaners. Show anyone who may use the
dishwasher the correct detergent and where it is stored.
While there will be no lasting damage to the dishwasher,
your dishes will not get clean using a dishwashing
detergent that is not formulated for automatic
dishwashers.

The Bottle Jets system (on some models) is the
ideal location to position baby bottles, tall sports
bottles, or other tall items with narrow openings. The
Bottle Jets clips hold bottles with small openings
in place so water jets are directed inside the bottles
to clean hard to reach areas. Clips can be installed or
removed by simply slipping the clip opening over the
top of the nozzle.

Upper Rack
The upper rack is primarily for glasses, cups, and
saucers. For best wash performance, tilt cup and
glass openings toward the center of the rack. Other
items such as pots, pans, and plates may be placed
in the upper rack. This is also a secure place for
dishwasher-safe plastic items. The upper rack can
be used for odd sized utensils. Sauce pans, mixing
bowls, and other similarly shaped items should
be placed face down for best wash performance.
Ensure small plastic items are secure so that they
cannot fall on the heater at the bottom of the
dishwasher, potentially damaging the item. Some
models are equipped with a hidden heater, so
dishwasher safe plastic items can be placed in the
lower rack.
IMPORTANT: Ensure items in the upper rack do not
interfere with the 3rd Rack (on some models) when
loading and unloading.
IMPORTANT: Ensure that items do not protrude
through the bottom of the rack or silverware basket
where they will block the rotation of the middle spray
arm. This could result in noise during operation and/
or poor wash performance.
Loading the dishwasher (cont.).
To add flexibility in loading, the stem safe shelf
(on some models) may be placed in the up or
down position or unfolded and placed in the lower
unfolded position. The shelf may also be used to
secure stemware such as wine glasses. Because
these stemware items come in various sizes, slowly
push the rack in to ensure the items do not bump
into the edges of the dishwasher, which may cause
damage to the items.
The upper rack allows 2” of adjustment up or down
to accommodate large items. The upper rack may
be lowered by pushing the long flaps on each side of
the rack. This will allow you to lower the rack (see fig.
Upper Rack). To raise the rack, lift up on the rack until
the rack locks in place.
The fold down tines (on some models) provide
flexibility for extra-large and hard-to-fit items.
The tine rows can be adjusted to a vertical or
lay-down position.

Lower Rack
The lower rack is best used for plates, saucers and cookware
items. Large items, such as broiler pans and baking racks should
be placed along the sides of the rack. If necessary, oversized
glasses and mugs can be placed in the lower rack to maximize
loading flexibility. Plates, saucers and similar items should be
placed between the tines in the direction that allows the item to
remain secure in the rack.
NOTE:
Do not load large items in the lower rack where they may
block the wash jets from rinsing out the detergent dispenser.
The lower
rack fold
down tines
(on some
models) can
be adjusted
to different
upright angles
or placed flat
to provide
flexibility for
hard-to-fit or
extra-large items.
The reversible tine blocks (on some models) are designed to
allow greater flexibility in loading dishes. The direction of the
tine blocks can be changed to match your preferred loading
direction as shown in Figure A or Figure B:
To adjust the tine block direction, remove the clips securing
the tine blocks to the racks by pulling up on the tab, then
gently flex the retaining wire from the center to unseat the
tine block from the lower rack. The tine block may be turned
in the opposite direction to reverse loading direction. Secure
the tine block to the rack using the same process and be
sure to snap the clips back in place.
To change the direction of the fold down tines, lower the
tines, then pull away from the bar clips that secure the
tines to the rack and remove. Reverse the direction of the
tines, orienting the handle on the opposite side of the rack.
Reattach the tines to the bar clips by pushing the tines back
until they click in place. The indexer will also need to be
switched to the opposite side of the dishwasher. To remove
the indexer, simply slide it the in the direction labeled
“unlock.” Then, align the indexer with the rack on the other
side and slide in the direction that says “lock” in order to
reattach the indexer to the rack.
IMPORTANT:
It is important to ensure that items do not
protrude through the bottom of the rack or the silverware
basket where they will block the rotation of the lower spray

hit the mid spray arm. This could result in noise during
operation and/or poor wash performance.

3rd Rack (on some models)
The 3rd rack is the recommended location for silverware and
large utensils
IMPORTANT NOTES:
Do not allow cutlery of different materials to touch each
other in the 3rd rack. Doing so may cause discoloration of
the cutlery.
The tray is only meant to be used with a GE Appliances
3rd rack dishwasher to hold silverware, cooking utensils,
and other small items. Using the tray for any other
purpose could result in damage to the tray or damage to
anything interacting with the tray.
Ensure that the 3rd rack is fully closed before shutting the
dishwasher door. Shutting the door with the rack partially
extended could cause damage to the dishwasher.
Take care when loading, unloading,
or transporting the silverware or
utensil tray. The tray may contain sharp or heavy
items. If items are dropped from the tray or the tray is
dropped, injury could occur.
CAUTION
The 3rd rack is also removable to allow extra large items to be placed in the upper rack:
To remove the 3rd rack:
1
With the rack fully extended, lift the front of the rack so that the
rack roller wheels clear the retaining hook
.
2
Continue to pull the rack until the remaining rack roller wheels
clear the retaining hook.
3
Replace the rack by aligning the rack roller wheels on the
retaining hook and rack rails – Ensure all roller wheels are
located on top of the rack rails
.
Silverware Basket
Place flatware in the removable silverware baskets. Sharp
objects, such as forks and knives, may be placed with the
handles facing up, in order to protect your hands. For the
best wash performance, place other items such as spoons
with the handles facing down. Avoid allowing items to
nest together, which may keep them from being properly
washed. When loading, distribute items evenly in the basket.
The silverware baskets may also be used for small items,
such as measuring spoons, baby bottle nipples, plastic lids,
or corn cob holders. The silverware basket covers can be
closed to contain small items.
Deep Clean Silverware Jets (on some models)
Deep Clean Silverware Jets target stubborn, stuck-on food
and help separate nested spoons and forks to keep your
silverware spotless no matter how you load the silverware.
For optimal silverware cleaning, the use of silverware basket
lids is always recommended. For models with the third rack,
the Deep Clean Silverware Jets can also be used to clean
mixing bowls and other cookware.
Do not remove Deep Clean Silverware Jet
spray assembly from the dishwasher rack.

Silverware/flatware is loaded using the silverware basket lids. This ensures great wash performance of the
silverware. Loading in this manner prevents nesting and makes sure all items are washed uniformly.

Care and cleaning.
Cleaning the Control Panel
To clean the control panel, use a lightly dampened cloth. Then
dry thoroughly.
Stainless Steel Inner Door and Tub
The stainless steel used to make the dishwasher tub and inner
door provides the highest reliability available in a GE Appliances
dishwasher.
If the dishwasher tub or inner door should be scratched or
dented during normal use, they will not rust or corrode. These
surface blemishes will not affect their function or durability.
Cleaning the Exterior Door Panel
Before cleaning the front panel, make sure you know what type
of panel you have. Refer to the last two letters of your model
number. You can locate your model number on the left-hand
tub wall just inside the door. If your model number ends with BB,
CC, WW, SA or ES then you have a painted door panel. If your
model number ends with SS, then you have a Stainless Steel
door panel. If your model number ends with II, then you have an
Integrated door panel.
Follow the instructions below for cleaning the door panel for
your specific model.
Painted Door Panel (model numbers ending in BB–black, CC–
bisque, WW–white, SA-silver or ES-slate)
Use a clean, soft, lightly dampened cloth, then dry thoroughly.
Stainless Steel Door Panel (model numbers ending in SS)
For cleaning rust and tarnish, cleaners with oxalic acid such
as Bar Keepers Friend Soft Cleanser™ will remove rust, tarnish
and small blemishes. Use only a liquid cleanser free of grit
and rub in the direction of the brush lines with a damp soft
sponge. Do not use appliance wax or polish on the stainless
steel.
For other blemishes and marks, use Stainless Steel Magic or a
similar product using a clean soft cloth. Do not use appliance
wax, polish,
bleach or products containing chlorine on
Stainless Steel. You can order Stainless Steel
Magic # WX10X29
through
GE Appliances Parts by calling 877.959.8688. In
Canada, call 1-800-661-1616.
Integrated Door Panel (model numbers ending in II)
This is a custom installed door panel, and you will need to refer
to the cabinet manufacturers recommendations for proper
cleaning.

Cleaning the Dishwasher Interior
To clean and de-odorize your dishwasher, use citric acid or
Lemi Shine®*, a detergent additive. Lemi Shine will break up
mineral deposits, and remove hard water film and stains. You
can order citric acid #WD35X151 through GE Appliances Parts
by calling 877-959-8688 or visiting GEApplianceparts.com. In
Canada, call 1-800-661-1616. You can purchase Lemi Shine
at your local grocery store or by calling GE Appliances at the
numbers above and ask for WX10X10019.
An air gap protects your dishwasher against water
backing up into it if a drain clogs. The air gap is not
a part of the dishwasher. It is not covered by your
warranty. Not all plumbing codes require air gaps,
so you may not have one.
The air gap is easy to clean.
1
Turn off the dishwasher and lift off the air gap
cover.
2
Remove the plastic cap under the cover and
clean with a toothpick.
3
Replace the cap and cover when the air gap is
clean.
Does Your Dishwasher Have an Air Gap?
If your dishwasher is left in an unheated place
during the winter, ask a service technician to:
1
Turn off electrical power to the dishwasher.
Remove fuses or trip circuit breaker.
2
Turn off the water supply and disconnect the
water inlet line from the water valve.
3
Drain water from the water inlet line and
water valve. (Use a pan to catch the water.)
4
Reconnect the water inlet line to the water
valve.
Protect Against Freezing
Check the air gap any
time your dishwasher
isn’t draining well.
Air gap
Inspect and clean the filters periodically. This should be done every other month or more depending on usage. If there is a
decrease in wash performance or dishes feel gritty, this is also an indication the filters need to be cleaned.
Cleaning the Filters
Ultra-Fine Filter
To clean the Ultra-Fine Filter, remove the bottom
rack. Twist the Ultra-Fine Filter counterclockwise
and lift to remove. Rinse filter with warm soapy
water and use a sponge to carefully remove
any stubborn particles. Scrubbing with scouring
pads or brushes can damage the filter. Once
cleaned, replace the Ultra-Fine Filter, and twist
it clockwise to lock in place.
Fine Filter
To clean the Fine Filter (mesh plate), remove the
bottom rack. Remove the Ultra-Fine Filter.
Twist each of the two retaining posts
located toward the back bottom of the tub
counterclockwise, and remove the Fine Filter.
Rinse filter with warm soapy water. Scouring
pads or brushes can scratch the filter surface
but a soft brush or sponge may be needed
to remove stubborn soils or calcium deposits
caused by hard water. Once cleaned, replace
the Fine Filter and the Ultra-Fine Filter. Twist the
two retaining posts clockwise to lock in place.
