ATTENTION

Never use steam cleaning products to clean your dishwasher. The manufacturer will not be liable for possible damages or

consequences.

ATTENTION

Never use harsh chemicals to clean your dishwasher. Some chloride-containing cleaning products can damage your dish-

washer and may present health hazards!

ATTENTION

It is highly recommended for the end use consumer to become familiar with the procedure to shut off the incoming wa-

ter supply and the procedure to shut off the incoming power supply. See the Installation Instructions or speak with your

installer for more information.

WARNING

Misuse of the dishwasher can result in serious injury or death. Do not use the dishwasher in any way not covered in this

manual or for any purpose other than those explained on the following pages.

WARNING

Severe product damage and/or injury could result from the use of unqualied service technicians or non-original replace-

ment parts. All repairs must be performed by a qualied service technician using only original equipment factory replace-

ment parts.

WARNING

Electrical shock or re could result if the electrical supply for the dishwasher covered in this manual is incorrectly installed

or if the dishwasher has been improperly grounded. Do not use the dishwasher covered in this manual if you are not certain

the electrical supply has been correctly installed or the dishwasher has been properly grounded.

Important Safety Instructions - Save This Information

• This appliance must be grounded to a 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. See the Installation Instructions

included with this dishwasher for more information on electrical requirements.

• Use this dishwasher only for its intended function, which is the washing of household dishware and kitchenware.

• This dishwasher is provided with Installation Instructions and this Use and Care Manual. Read and understand all instructions

before using the dishwasher.

• Use only detergents or rinsing agents recommended for use in a dishwasher, and keep them out of the reach of children.

• When loading items to be washed:

- Locate sharp items so that they are not likely to damage the door seal.

- Load knives and other sharp utensils with their 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 operate your dishwasher unless all enclosure panels are in place.

• Do not tamper with or override controls and interlocks.

• Do not abuse, sit on, or stand on the door or dish racks of the dishwasher.

• To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to play in or on the dishwasher.

• When children become old enough to operate the appliance, it is the legal responsibility of the parents or legal guardians to ensure

that they are instructed in safe practices by qualied persons.

• 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. Before using a dishwasher that is connected to a hot water system that has been unused for two weeks or

longer, turn on all hot water faucets and let the water ow from each for several minutes. This will release any accumulated hydro-

gen gas. As the gas is explosive, do not smoke or use an open ame during this time.

• Remove the door to the washing compartment when removing an old dishwasher from service or discarding.

• To avoid oor damage and possible mold growth, do not allow wet areas to remain around or under the dishwasher.

• Protect your dishwasher from the elements. Protect against freezing to avoid possible damage to the ll valve. Damage caused by

freezing is not covered by the warranty.

Dishware Materials

NOTE: Before using your dishwasher for the rst time, check the information in this section. Some

items are not dishwasher safe and should be hand-washed; others require special loading. Contact

the item’s manufacturer if you are unsure about the item’s dishwasher suitability.

Recommended

Aluminum: Colored anodized aluminum may fade over time. Minerals in your water may cause

the aluminum to darken or spot. This can usually be removed by using a soap-lled steel

wool pad.

China, Crystal, Stoneware: Some hand-painted pieces may discolor, fade, or spot. Hand-wash

these pieces. Position fragile glassware so that it will not topple over or contact other pieces

during the wash cycle.

Glass: Milk glass may yellow.

Non-Stick Coatings: Apply a light coating of vegetable oil to non-stick surfaces after drying.

Plastics: Make sure the piece is dishwasher safe.

Stainless Steel, Sterling Silver, and Silver Plate: Place these pieces so that they do not contact

dissimilar metals.

Not Recommended

Acrylic: Crazing (small cracks throughout the acrylic) may occur.

Adhesive-Joined Pieces: Adhesives that join materials such as plastic, wood, bone, steel copper,

tin, etc. may loosen.

Bone-Handled Utensils: Handles may separate.

Iron: Iron will rust. Hand-wash and dry immediately.

Non-Dishware Items: Your dishwasher is intended for use in cleaning ONLY standard household

dishware and kitchenware.

Pewter, Brass, Bronze: Pewter will tarnish. Hand-wash and dry immediately.

Tin: Tin will rust. Hand-wash and dry immediately.

Wood: Wooden bowls, wooden utensils, and wood-handled utensils can crack, warp, and lose

their nish.

Preparing and Loading the Dishware

Dishware Preparation

Do not pre-wash items having loosely-attached soiling. Remove large food particles, bones, seeds,

toothpicks, and excessive grease. Items having burned-on, baked-on or starchy soils may require

pre-treatment.

Loading the Dishwasher

Check the Materials section of this manual if you are unsure about an item’s dishwasher suitability.

Load only dishwasher-safe items into the dishwasher. Load dishes in the dishwasher racks so that

the insides of bowls, pots, and pans are facing the spray arms. Avoid nesting and contact points

between dishes. Separate items of dissimilar metals.

Loading the Top Rack

Figures 1 and 2 show typical 10 and 12 place load patterns for the top rack.

NOTE: Make sure items do not protrude through the bottom of the racks and block the spray arms.

ATTENTION

To avoid dishwasher damage, do not load the dishwasher with objects such as paper prod-

ucts, plastic bags, packing materials, or anything other than normal dishware and kitchen-

ware. Do not load the dishwasher with anything other than dishwasher-safe dishware and

kitchenware.

Top Rack Accessories

Top Rack Flip Tines

Flip Tines fold down to make loading the racks easier in some instances. Grasp the tines,

release from notch, and fold the tines downward. When the top rack is loaded, push it into

the dishwasher.

NOTE: When pushing the top rack into the dishwasher, push it until it stops against the

back of the tub so the top rack spray arm will connect to the water supply. Do not push the

top rack with the door.

Top Rack Height Adjustment (select models)

Remove the empty upper rack by pulling it out of the dishwasher to the point that it can

be lifted upward, as shown in Figure 4. Pull the rack outward and up until the rollers are

completely free of the roller guides. Re-insert the rack with the other set of rollers on the

roller guides, as shown in Figure 5.

Loading the Bottom Rack

Place large items in the bottom rack. Load pots, pans and bowls upside-down. Figures 6

and 7 show typical mixed loads for the bottom rack.

Bottom Rack Flip Tines

Flip Tines fold down to make loading the racks easier in some instances. Grasp the tines

and fold them downward.

Loading Extra Tall Items (select models)

If an item is too tall to be placed into the bottom rack even with the top rack in the raised

position, remove the empty top rack by pulling it out of the dishwasher until it stops

rolling. Pull the front of the rack upward and outward until the rollers are completely free

of the roller guides. Set the top rack aside. Push the roller guides back into the dishwasher.

Insert the Extra Tall Item Sprinkler into the top rack spray outlet and turn the sprinkler

clockwise to lock it into position as shown in Figure 8. Place your extra tall item(s) in the

bottom rack as shown in Figure 9.

NOTE: Keep the vent on the tub’s right side clear by placing tall items such as plastic

cutting boards and tall baking sheets on the bottom rack’s left side, center, or back.

ATTENTION

To avoid dishwasher damage, do not reinstall the top rack without removing the extra

tall item sprinkler. Do not reinstall the top rack with the sprinkler installed.

To remove the sprinkler and return the dishwasher to its normal condition:

1. Turn the sprinkler counterclockwise and remove it.

2. Retrieve the top rack.

3. Tilt the top rack upwards and position the top rack rollers onto the roller guides.

4. Continue pushing the top rack until the rollers are on the guide.

5. Push the top rack into the dishwasher.

Loading the Silverware Basket

NOTE: The silverware basket tops can be folded up to accommodate large or oddly-shaped

items.

With the silverware basket tops down, load the silverware basket following the patterns

suggested in Figures 10 (for standard basket) and 11 (for exible basket). Place knives with

their handles up, and forks and spoons with their handles down.

If large or oddly-shaped items are to be loaded into the silverware basket with the tops up,

load the items so that they do not nest together. Load knives and sharp utensils with their

handles up.

CAUTION

The sharp points and edges of knives and other sharp utensils can cause serious injuries. Load knives and other sharp utensils

with sharp points and edges down. Do not allow children to handle or play near knives and sharp utensils.

The Standard Silverware Basket

This basket ts in the front-middle of the lower rack.

The Flexible Silverware Basket

This basket is designed for maximum versatility. The basket splits along its length, resulting in two halves that may be placed in a variety

of positions in the lower rack, greatly increasing the lower rack’s loading versatility.

To split the Flexible Silverware Basket:

1. Grasp the basket as shown in Figure 12A, and slide the two halves in opposite directions, as shown in Figure 12A.

2. Pull the two halves apart, as shown in Figure 12B.

Adding Detergent and Rinse Agent

Detergent

Use only detergent specically designed for dishwashers. For best results, use fresh

powdered dishwashing detergent.

ATTENTION

To avoid dishwasher damage, do not use hand dishwashing products in your dish-

washer.

This dishwasher uses less water so you need to use less detergent. With soft water, 1

tablespoon (15ml) of detergent will clean most loads. The detergent dispenser cup has

lines that measure detergent to 1 tablespoon (15ml) and 1.75 tablespoons (25ml). 3

tablespoons (45ml) of detergent will completely ll the detergent dispenser cup.

ATTENTION

To avoid dishware damage, do not use too much detergent if your water supply is

soft. Using too much detergent in soft water may cause etching in glassware.

NOTE: If you do not know the hardness of your water supply, use 15ml of detergent.

Increase the amount of detergent, if necessary, to the least amount required to get your

dishware and kitchenware clean.

Use the measuring lines in the detergent dispenser cup as a guide to measure the amount

of detergent recommended in Table 1.

foreign objects and clean it when necessary.

To Remove the Large Object Trap/Cylinder Filter Assembly:

1. Remove the bottom rack.

2. Grasp the assembly as shown in Figure 28 and turn it counter-

clockwise 1/4 turn.

3. Lift out the assembly as shown in Figure 29.

4. Carefully examine the assembly. If you nd debris in the Large Object Trap, turn it

upside-down and gently tap it on a surface such as a countertop to dislodge and

remove the debris. Flush the Cylinder Filter clean by holding it under running water.

To Remove the Fine Filter:

1. Lift the Fine Filter from the dishwasher oor as shown in Figure

30 and ush it clean by holding it under running water.

To reinstall the lter system:

1. Return the Fine Filter to its installed position.

2. Place the Large Object Trap/Cylinder Filter Assembly into its installed position in the

dishwasher oor.

3. Turn the ring handle clockwise 1/4 turn until it is locked. The arrow

on the ring handle and the arrow on the Fine Filter should point to each other, as

shown by the circle in Figure 31.

4. Gently pull the ring handle to ensure that the assembly is locked into place.

ATTENTION

To avoid possible diswasher damage, do not use harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners,

scouring pads (metal or plastic), or abrasive cloths/paper towels to clean your dish-

washer’s exterior door panel. Your dishwasher’s exterior door panel can be damaged

by doing so.

Clean the Exterior Door Panel

Colored Doors

Use only a soft cloth that is lightly dampened with soapy water.

Stainless Steel Doors

Use a soft cloth with a non-abrasive cleaner (preferably a liquid spray) made for cleaning stainless steel. For the best results,

apply the stainless steel cleaner to the cloth, then wipe the surface.

Clean the Door Gasket and Door Seal

Regularly clean the door gasket with a damp cloth to remove food particles and other debris. Also clean the door seal, located

inside the dishwasher at the bottom of the door.

Wash Cycle Information

NOTE: To save energy, this dishwasher has a “Smart Control” that automatically adjust the cycle based on soil loads and

incoming water temperature. The “Smart Control” makes decisions that can cause the cycle time and water usage to adjust

intermittently. The cycle times listed in the Use and Care manual are based on normal soil loads and 120°F incoming water and

will vary based on your actual conditions.

See the Cycles Chart to determine the cycles available for your specic model.

NOTE: On select models, the Half Load feature will reduce the water consumption by approximately 30 percent in the Power

Scrub Plus, Regular, and Auto Wash cycles. The ECO option may be selected for the Power Scrub Plus, Auto, Regular and

Delicate cycles on select models. This reduces energy consumption approximately 10% due to lower main wash and nal rinse

temperatures, but extends cycle length 5-10 minutes to maintain drying performance and the water usage will be unmodied

in comparison to the normal program cycles.

THE NSF SYMBOL

A dishwasher or a dishwasher cycle that has the NSF symbol has been certied by the NSF International to meet very strict

requirements of wash time and water temperature to ensure dishware and kitchenware sanitization. These requirements are

explained in the document NSF/ANSI 184, Residential Dishwashers. More information on NSF Certication is available at the

NSF website, http://www.nsfconsumer.org/home/appliances.asp.

Your dishwasher is NSF certied. The dishwasher cycles that are NSF certied are shown in the chart above. When these cycles

are complete, the “Sanitized” indicator on your dishwasher control panel will illuminate.

NOTE: If your household water supply is too hot, your dishwasher’s heating time may be reduced and the “Sanitized” light or

symbol may not illuminate. Your Dishwasher Installation Manual has information on the recommended temperature for your

household hot water supply.

Self Help

Dishwashers may occasionally exhibit problems that are unrelated to a malfunction of the dishwasher itself. The following information

may help you with a dishwasher problem without your having to call a repair person.

Dishes do not dry

The rinse agent dispenser may be empty. Check the rinse-aid dispenser and rell it if necessary. Dishware drying can be accelerated and

enhanced by opening the dishwasher door slightly and propping it open with the top rack.

Indicator light(s) do not come on

A fuse may have blown or a circuit breaker tripped. Check the fuse or circuit breaker at your fuse box/breaker box and replace the fuse or

reset the breaker if necessary.

Dishwasher does not start

The dishwasher door may not be properly shut. Make certain the dishwasher door is shut and latched.

Dishwasher runs a long time

If the dishwasher completes the cycle, but the run time seems exceptionally long, it may be due to cold incoming water. Before starting

the dishwasher, open the hot water faucet at the sink nearest the dishwasher. Run the water until it runs hot, then turn off the water and

start the dishwasher.

Machine cycle does not advance to rinse

NOTE: The Installation Manual that came with your dishwasher will help you with the following instructions. The water supply line may

be shut off. Check the water supply valve and open it if it’s shut.

White spots left on dishes

More rinse agent is needed. Go to the Adding Detergent and Rinse Agent section of this manual for instructions on increasing the

amount of rinse agent dispensed.

Water not pumped from dishwasher

Make certain the drain hose isn’t kinked, clogged, or improperly installed. Make certain a portion of the drain hose is at least 20 inches

above the dishwasher’s enclosure oor (see the Installation Manual). Filters may be clogged. Make certain the lter system isn’t clogged

(see the Care and Maintenance section of this manual). The kitchen sink drain may be clogged; you may need a plumber rather than a

serviceman for the dishwasher. If an air gap is installed at sink, it may be clogged.

Detergent dispenser cover will not shut

You may not be correctly shutting the detergent dispenser cover, or a cycle was not nished and should be cancelled. Go to the Adding

Detergent and Rinse Agent section of this manual for instructions on shutting the detergent dispenser cover. Go to the Operating the

Dishwasher section of this manual for instructions on canceling a cycle.

Streaks on glassware

Too much rinse agent is being dispensed. Go to the Adding Detergent and Rinse Agent section of this manual for instructions on

decreasing the amount of rinse agent dispensed.

Rattling noises

Utensils may not be properly arranged.

Suds in dishwasher

You may have used the wrong type of dishwashing detergent. Use only automatic dishwasher detergents.

Unsatisfactory washing results

• Incorrect amount of detergent.

• Utensils incorrectly arranged or rack overloaded.

• Spray arm rotation blocked by utensils.

• Spray arm nozzles need cleaning.

• Filters not properly tted into position.

• Unsuitable cycle selected.
