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.
Recommended Detergent Amount
Add recommended amount of detergent to each cup asshown
and close the detergent lid.

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

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.

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

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

DISHWASHER INTERIOR OR
G LASSWA RE)
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.
Call for service.
