DISHWASHER SAFETY

Your safety and the safety of others are very important.

We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all

safety messages.

This is the safety alert symbol.

This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.

All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word "DANGER" or

"WARNING." These words mean:

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't

immediately follow instructions.

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't

follow instructions.

All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you

what can happen if the instructions are not followed.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING: When using the dishwasher, follow basic precautions, including the following:

• Read all instructions before using the dishwasher. • Do not tamper with controls.

Use the dishwasher only for its intended function. •

Use only detergents or rinse agents recommended for

use in a dishwasher, and keep them out of the reach •

of children.

• When loading items to be washed:

1) Locate sharp items so that they are not likely to

damage the door seal; and

2) Load sharp knives with the handles up to reduce

the risk of cut-type injuries.

• Do not wash plastic items unless they are marked

"dishwasher safe" or the equivalent. For plastic items

not so marked, check the manufacturer's

recommendations.

• Do not touch the heating element during or

immediately after use.

• Do not operate the dishwasher unless all enclosure

panels are properly in place.

Do not abuse, sit on, or stand on the door, lid, or dish

racks of the dishwasher.

To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to

play in or on 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. Ifthe hot water system has not been

used for such a period, before using the dishwasher

turn on all hot water faucets and let the water flow

from each for several minutes. This will release any

accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is flammable,

do not smoke or use an open flame during this time.

Remove the door or lid to the washing compartment

when removing an old dishwasher from service or

discarding it.

SAVE TH ESE INSTRUCTIONS

Tip Over Hazard

Do not use dishwasher until completely installed.

Do not push down on open door.

Doing so can result in serious injury or cuts.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

• For a grounded, cord-connected dishwasher:

The dishwasher must be grounded. In the event

of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding will

reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a

path of least resistance for electric current. The

dishwasher is equipped with a cord having an

equipment-grounding conductor and a

grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into

an appropriate outlet that is installed and

grounded in accordance with all local codes and

ordinances.

WARNING; Improper connection of the

equipment-grounding conductor can result in a

risk of electric shock. Check with a qualified

electrician or service representative if you are in

doubt whether the dishwasher is properly

grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with

the dishwasher; if it will not fit the outlet, have a

proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

• For a permanently connected dishwasher:

The dishwasher must be connected to a

grounded metal, permanent wiring system, or an

equipment-grounding conductor must be run

with the circuit conductors and connected to the

equipment-grounding terminal or lead on the

dishwasher.

DETERGENT AND RINSE AID

IM PORTANT:

Use only automatic dishwashing detergent. Hand dishwashing

detergent will produce excessive suds and overflow out of the

dishwasher.

Premeasured Detergents

Many detergents now come in premeasured forms (gel packs,

tablets, or powder packs). These forms are suitable for all

hardness and soil levels. Always place premeasured detergents

in the main cup and close the lid.

IM PORTANT:

Extremely hard water mineral deposits (15 grains per U.S. gallon

or more) can cause damage to your dishwasher and make it

difficult to achieve good results. A water softener is

recommended to avoid damage and achieve good results. You

may bring your water samples to Sears to check hardness level.

RinseAid

IMPORTANT:

Your dishwasher is designed to use a liquid rinse aid. The use of

rinse aids greatly improves drying by allowing water to drain from

the dishes after the final rinse. They also keep water from forming

droplets that can dry as spots or streaks.

Filling the dispenser

The dispenser holds 5 oz (150 mL) of rinse aid. Under most

conditions this will last 1 to 3 months.

1. Turn the knob to the REFILL position and remove.

2. Pour rinse aid into the opening until the indicator points to

FULL. Do not overfill.

3. Clean up any spilled rinse aid. Spilled rinse aid can create

excessive suds.

4. Replace the knob and turn to the LOCK position.

NOTE: Indicator reads correct fill level when door is completely

opened.

Rinse Aid Setting

Your rinse aid dispenser is adjustable. For most water

conditions, the factory setting of 2 will give good results. If

you have hard water and notice calcium buildup on your

dishware, you may want to try a higher setting.

Lock

Refill

To adjust the setting

1. Turn the knob to the REFILL position and remove.

2. Turn the arrow inside the dispenser to the desired setting.

3. Replace the knob and turn to the LOCK position.

food containing salt, acid, or sulfide (eggs, mayonnaise, and seafood)

can damage finish.

Tin No Not recommended.

Wooden Ware No Wash by hand. Always check manufacturer's instructions before

washing. Untreated wood can warp, crack, or lose its finish.

DISHWASHER CARE

Cleaning the exterior

In most cases, regular use of a soft, damp cloth or sponge and a mild detergent is all

that is necessary to keep the outside of your dishwasher looking nice and clean. If your

dishwasher has a stainless steel exterior, a stainless steel cleaner is recommended.

Cleaning the interior

Hard water minerals can cause a white film to build up on the inside surfaces,

especially just beneath the door area.

Do not clean the dishwasher interior until it has cooled. You may want to wear rubber

gloves. Do not use any type of cleanser other than dishwasher detergent because it

may cause foaming or sudsing.

To clean interior

Make a paste with powdered dishwasher detergent on a damp sponge and clean.

Use liquid automatic dishwasher detergent and clean with a damp sponge.

See the vinegar rinse procedure in "Spotting and filming on dishes" in

"Troubleshooting" section.

NOTE: Run a normal cycle with dishwasher detergent after cleaning the interior.

Some state or local plumbing codes require the addition of a drain air gap between a

built-in dishwasher and the home drain system. Check the drain air gap when your

dishwasher is not draining well.

The drain air gap is usually located on top of the sink or countertop near the

dishwasher. To order a drain air gap, please call 1-800-4-MY-HOME ®.Ask for Part

Number 300096.

NOTE: The drain air gap is an external plumbing device that is not part of your

dishwasher. The warranty provided with your dishwasher does not cover service costs

directly associated with the cleaning or repair of the external drain air gap.

To clean the drain air gap

Clean the drain air gap periodically to ensure proper drainage of your dishwasher. With

most types, you lift off the chrome cover. Unscrew the plastic cap. Then check for any

soil buildup. Clean if necessary.

Storing for the summer Ifyour dishwasher is not in use during the summer months, turn off the water supply

and power supply to the dishwasher.

Storing for the winter Avoid possible water damage to your home and dishwasher due to freezing water lines.

Ifyour dishwasher is left in a seasonal dwelling or could be exposed to near freezing

temperatures, have your dishwasher winterized by authorized service personnel.

DISPENSER OR

TABLET IS ON BOTTOM

OFTUB

CYCLE RUNS TOO LONG

DISHWASHER NOT DRYING

NOTE: It is normal for the dishwasher to repeatedly pause several times during a cycle.

If the Start/Resume light is blinking, close the door and push START/RESUME.

Be sure the door is closed and latched.

Be sure you have selected a cycle. (See "Cycles and Options Information.")

Be sure there is power to the dishwasher. A circuit breaker or fuse may have tripped.

If lights other than Start/Resume blink and the unit will not run, you will need to call for service.

Check for dishware such as cookie sheets, cutting boards, or large containers, etc. that may be

blocking the detergent dispenser from opening properly.

Be sure your detergent is fresh and lump free.

Be sure the cycle has completed (blue light is on). If it has not completed, you will need to resume

the cycle by closing the door and pressing START/RESUME.

NOTES:

• To use less water and reduce energy consumption you will encounter cycles that typically run

for up to 3 hours.

• A water heater setting of 120°F (49°C) is best, the dishwasher will delay longer while heating

cooler water.

• Some options will add time to the cycle. (See "Cycles and Options Information" section.) The

Heated Dry option adds 1/2hour.

Try the 1 Hour Wash cycle.

Run the hot water at a faucet close to the dishwasher before starting the cycle.

NOTE: Plastic and items with nonstick surfaces are difficult to dry because they have a porous

surface which tends to collect water droplets. Towel drying may be necessary.

Use of rinse aid along with the Heated Dry option is needed for proper drying.

Proper loading of items can affect drying. (See specific loading instructions within this guide.)

Glasses and cups with concave bottoms hold water. This water may spill onto other items when

unloading.

• Unload the bottom rack first.

• Locate these items on the more slanted side of the rack for improved results.

Try adding the "Hi-Temp Wash" option for further improved drying performance.

Use a more aggressive cycle, such as pots and pans or heavy cycle for improved drying

performance.

Load your silverware to allow proper water drainage? Refer to the "Silverware Loading"

section.

For best drying use the slots in the lids to separate and space the silverware.

Avoid items from touching or nesting onto each other by mixing silverware types. Do not

overload the basket.

WILL NOT FILL

WATER REMAINS IN THE TUB/

WILL NOT DRAIN

Be sure the water is turned on to the dishwasher.

Check that the float is free from obstructions. (See "Parts and Features.")

Check for suds in the dishwasher. If foam or suds are detected, the dishwasher may not operate

properly or may not fill with water. (See "BLINKING LIGHTS" in "Troubleshooting.")

Be sure the cycle has completed (the blue light is on). If it has not, you will need to resume the

cycle by closing the door and pressing START/RESUME.

If dishwasher is connected to afood waste disposer, be sure the knockout plug has been removed

from the disposer inlet.

Check for kinks in the drain hose.

Check for food obstructions in the drain or disposer.

Check your house fuse or circuit breaker.

PROBLEM SOLUTION

HARD WATER

(WHITE RESIDUE ON

DISHWASHER INTERIOR OR

ODORS

NOISY

NOTE: Extremely hard water mineral deposits can cause damage to your dishwasher and make it

difficult to achieve good cleaning. You may bring water samples to Sears to check your water

hardness level. A water softener is strongly recommended if your hardness is 15 grains or more. If

a water softener is not installed, the following steps may help:

Use a commercial cleaner designed for dishwashers once per month.

Clean the ULTRA WASH ®HEfilters at least once per month.

Always use a rinse aid.

Always use a high-quality, fresh detergent.

Use a detergent booster/water softener additive designed for dishwashers.

NOTE: If the dishwasher is not used daily, you can run a rinse cycle with the partial load daily until

a full load is ready to run, or use the Top Rack Only option (on some models) for partial loads.

Run a vinegar rinse through the dishwasher by putting 2 cups (500 mL) of white vinegar in an

upright glass measuring cup in the lower rack. Run a normal cycle with the Heated Dry option

turned off. Do not use detergent.

The dishwasher may not be draining properly, see "WATER REMAINS IN THE TUB/WILL NOT

DRAIN" in "Troubleshooting."

NOTES:

• Surging sounds can occur periodically throughout the cycle while the dishwasher is draining.

• Normal water valve hissing may be heard periodically.

• A normal snap sound may be heard when the detergent dispenser opens during the cycle and

when the door is opened at the end of the cycle.

• Improper installation will affect noise levels.

Be sure the filters are properly installed.

A thumping sound may be heard if items extend beyond the racks and interfere with the wash

arms. Readjust the dishware and resume the cycle.

FOOD SOILS REMAIN

ON DISHES

Be sure the dishwasher is loaded correctly. Improper loading can greatly decrease the washing

performance (see "Loading for Best Performance.")

Check filter to ensure it is properly installed. Clean it if needed. (See "Cleaning Instructions" in

"ULTRA WASH ®HEFiltration System" for details.)

Select the proper cycle and option for the type of soils. The Pots Pans cycle with the

TURBOZONE TM option can be used for tougher loads.

Be sure the incoming water temperature is at least 120°F (49°C).

Use the proper amount of fresh detergent. More detergent is needed for heavier-soiled loads and

hard water conditions.

Scrape food from dishes prior to loading (do not prerinse).

DID NOT SANITIZE If the sanitized light is blinking, the load is NOT sanitized. The cycle was interrupted in the final

rinse, or your water heater is set too low. Set your water heater to 120°F (49°C).

DAMAGE TO DISHWARE Improper loading can cause dishes to become chipped or damaged. (See specific loading

instructions within this guide.)

BLINKING LIGHTS If the Start/Resume light is blinking, close the door and push START/RESUME.

If the Clean light or any other lights are blinking and the dishwasher will not run, check the

following:

• Is the overfill protection float able to move up and down freely? Press down to release.

• Be sure the water supply is turned on to the dishwasher. (This is very important following the

new installation of your dishwasher.)

• Check for suds in the dishwasher. If foam or suds are detected by the dishwasher sensing

system, the dishwasher may not operate properly or may not fill with water.

Suds can come from:

• Using the incorrect type of detergent, such as dish detergent for hand washing dishes,

laundry detergent, or hand soap.

• Not replacing the rinse aid dispenser cap after filling (or refilling) the rinse aid.

• Using an excessive amount of dishwasher detergent.
