English

Loading the lower & Upper half rack:

To get maximum cleaning result, follow the recommendations below before you

start the dishwasher:

Note: Do not wash any heat sensitive or any other items that are not designed for

automatic dishwasher.

• Keep all tall dishware and food containers away form the spray arm rotation.

• Place food containers such as cups, glasses, bowls, saucepans and casseroles with

soiled surface facing in downward position.

• To avoid any type of damage to glassware such as coffee/tea cups, beverage or

wineglasses, do not load them on the bottom rack. Place these items on the upper

half rack.

Loading Silverware Basket:

Simply remove the basket out of the dishwasher to load silverware and

place it back once you finish loading.

• To avoid any type of injury, load knives and forks face down.

• Try to mix spoons, knives and forks for better cleaning and drying

and to prevent nesting.

• Do not mix stainless and silver items because you may damage silver

finish on silver items.

• Do not load tall items next to upper spray arm because it could be blocked.

• Do not load dishware or food containers that are made of wood or iron.

These items are not considered dishwasher safe.

• Do not load tin, pewter and non-dishware filters. These items are not

considered dishwasher safe.

HDT18PA-MANUAL 10/22/01 11:46 AM Page 10

Pouring Dishwasher Detergent:

Use proper recommended amount of detergent for your wash loads.

Pour in detergent into open compartment that is located on the inside of the door.

Proper Use of Detergent:

• The amount of detergent to use depends on the type of water in your living area

whether it is hard or soft and whether items are lightly or heavily soiled.

• Water softness or hardness is measured in grains content per gallon. You can find

out grains level by calling your local Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) in

your county.

• If you find that "grains" level is higher in the water then the water will be harder

in your living area so you will need more detergent to clean. If "grains" level is

lower then the water will be softer in your living area so you will need less

detergent to clean.

See the following table to understand the "water hardness type" and "grains" level.

Water Hardness Type Level of Grains in the water

Hard 10+

Medium 4-9

Soft 0-3

Note: If "grains" level is over 12 then water is very hard. You may need water

softener to improve the water quality and the performance of

your dishwashing.

Note: The quality of detergent will make the big difference of cleaning your dishes.

If you are using detergent that is damp, clumsy or too old then this type of

detergent will not be as effective to clean because of active ingredients are

phased off and the detergent will not work properly.

English

HDT18PA-MANUAL 10/22/01 11:46 AM Page 11

Note: Use only manufacturer’s recommended "Automatic Dishwasher Detergent"

only for your dishwasher. Other types of detergents that are not for

dishwasher use may cause oversudsing and foaming. Do not use detergents

that are dried, caked or moist. These types of detergents will not dissolve

properly and clean effectively.

Check List for Wash Process:

1. Make sure all items are loaded in the racks properly.

2. Pour in detergent into open compartment that is located on the inside of the door.

3. Close the door and latch safely.

4. Select the desired wash cycle.

5. Press "ON" button to start the wash process.

6. Select "Vented Dry" button if you want to dry after the wash cycle is finished.

Note: To add or remove items after cycle starts, unlock the door latch and wait a

few seconds until wash action has stopped. Open the door and let hot steam

inside the dishwasher out. After the hot steam is completely released, you

can now add or change items. Once you make your changes, close the door

gently and lock the door latch to resume the cycle.

Selecting Wash & Dry Cycle:

• For your convenience, your dishwasher has two wash cycles, normal and heavy.

You also have two options, "vented dry On/Off" and "rinse & hold". You can

select your desired wash cycle depending upon the type of dishware and whether

they are heavily or lightly soiled.

Normal Wash Cycle:

• This is used for regular loads for medium soiled dishware, silverware and

glassware. The total time for "Wash Only" cycle is approximately 27 minutes.

When "Dry Cycle" is selected, the total time for the whole cycle will be

approximately 42 minutes.

Heavy Wash Cycle:

• This cycle is used for heavily soiled dishware, glassware, silverware and pots &

pans, and cookware with dried soils. The total time for "Wash Only" cycle is

approximately 42 minutes. When "Dry Cycle" is selected, the total time for the

whole cycle will be approximately 53 minutes.

Rinse & Hold Cycle:

• This cycle is used for rinsing partial loads that will be washed later. The total wash

time for "Wash Only" cycle is approximately 6 minutes.

Note: Do not use detergent with this cycle.

Vented Dry (On/Off):

• You can select this option at the beginning of the wash cycle to dry your dishware

items. Press the button in to have vented dry option "On" or press the out to have

vented dry option "Off".

Note: When selecting any of the above cycles or options, you will

see the following:

• It will take approximately 60 seconds to begin the wash cycle.

• In wash mode, light will come on indicating that wash cycle is selected.

• In dry mode, light will come on indicating that dry cycle is selected.

• The buzzer will beep at the end of the cycle indicating that cycle

is completed.

Warning: When you leave the door open to air dry those washed items, make

sure there are no children around to go near the dishwasher to climb

over. If there are children around near the dishwasher, pay careful

attention and observation toward children.

Understanding the Venting Process:

• In this process, the hot steam from the dishwasher is being drawn into the drain

pump through its vacuum force and the mix condensation of water and air is

being discharged through the discharge hose from the back of the unit.

Checking Water Temperature:

• Your incoming water must be between at least 120 Degree F / 49 Degree C and

most 150 Degree F / 66 Degree C but no more than 150 Degree F / 66 Degree

C in order to have effective cleaning and prevent damage to your dishware.

If you are not sure of what degree your hot water temperature is at:

1. Simply open the hot water faucet and let it run for a minute and fill a glass.

2. Take a thermometer and check the temperature of the water.

3. If the temperature is below 120 Degree F / 49 Degree C, then you need to

adjust water regulator in order to maintain that temperature level.

Note: We recommend that you select hot water instead of cold water from the

faucet to reduce the time to heat up the water and to have the detergent

properly dissolve in the water quickly in order to clean the dishware

effectively. Your unit is equipped with heater that will automatically increase

the water temperature quickly to remove grease and soil off the dishware

and dissolve detergent properly.

Overflowing Protection:

• In the event the water flowing into the machine is not cut off as foreseen by the

program and the water level rises above the highest acceptable point, the security

pressure switch automatically activates the drainage pump which immediately

empties the water.

• This happens when the machine is operating (ON). When the machine is on

"OFF" position, the water supply to the dishwasher must be shut at the end of the

program in order to isolate the machine from the pressure in the network. This is

especially necessary if you will be absent from your home.

Tips to avoid stains and films:

The following suggestions are recommended to prevent stains and films

from dishware and utensils items:

• You must rinse all dishware, silverware, glassware and food containers right a

way after use. Some citric based food products, coffee, tea and iron deposits in

water can cause yellow or brown film on inside surface when left on for a long

time and not rinsed immediately.

• You must check your water hardness to see whether you need to use more or less

detergent to wash. If water is extremely hard then it may be causing stains on

items. You may need to use water softener.

• Do not over load the dishwasher.

• Avoid improper loading.

• Make sure there is a proper water temperature that is recommended to

wash dishware.

• Do not use too little detergent.

• Do not use old or damp powder detergent.

• Do not load aluminum utensils improperly. Aluminum utensils can cause gray or

black marks to porcelain utensils if touching during wash cycle.

HDT18PA-MANUAL 10/22/01 11:46 AM Page 16

English

Preventing Your Dishwasher from Freezing:

You must protect your dishwasher if it is left in an unheated place during the winter.

• You must cut off electrical power to the dishwasher.

• You must turn off the water supply and disconnect the water inlet line from the

water valve.

• You must drain water from the water inlet into the sink or pan.

Storage of Your Dishwasher in Cold Environment:

• You must store the dishwasher at room temperature.

• Do not install or operate your dishwasher where the temperature

is below freezing.

• If you just got a delivery of a dishwasher when outside temperature is below

freezing, do not operate until dishwasher has warmed to a room temperature.

HDT18PA-MANUAL 10/22/01 11:46 AM Page 17

English

Dishwasher does not work:

• Check if the unit is plugged in. The plug may have come loose.

• Check if the electrical wall receptacle is of proper voltage.

• Check if circuit breaker needs to be reset or if the fuse needs to be replaced.

• Check if the unit is on "Off" mode.

• Check if the door is open. You may have to close the door properly.

Dishware and glassware/flatware are cloudy

and not cleaned:

• Use of old or poor detergent.

You need to make sure that detergent is fresh.

• The water may be hard in your area.

You may need to install water softener.

• Spray arms may be blocked.

You may need to rearrange dishware and utensils.

• Water pressure may be low.

You may need to adjust the water pressure.

Troubleshooting

HDT18PA-MANUAL 10/22/01 11:46 AM Page 18

English

Dishware chipped:

• This is due to poor loading or overloading. You need to be careful when loading.

Do not overload. You need to place glassware securely against pins. Make sure

delicate items are on the side rack. We recommend that fine chinaware or crystal

items should be hand washed.

Noise:

Some of the sounds you will hear are normal.

• You will hear sound of the water fill and rinse.

• You will hear drain valve opening to pump water out.

• You will hear motor stopping at the end of the cycle.

• If some utensils are not secure in the rack, you will hear that they are being tossed

around the tub.

Steam is coming out from back of the unit:

This is normal.

You will see that steam is coming out through the back exhaust outlet during the dry

cycle and when the hot/warm water is being pumped out through the drain hose.

Oversudsing:

This is due to use of regular hand washing detergent.

You may need to check if the detergent is for "Automatic Dishwasher Use". If not

then you need to use the proper detergent that is for dishwasher.

Dishware has an odor:

• This is due to incomplete cycle.

You need to allow cycle to be fully completed.

• New scented detergent used.

This is normal because different types of detergents may have different frgrances.

HDT18PA-MANUAL 10/22/01 11:46 AM Page 19

Etching:

• Too much detergent used.

Use the appropriate amount of detergent. Reduce amount of detergent

used per load.

• The water temperature is too hot.

You need to lower water temperature.

• Use of old detergent.

Avoid using old detergent. Read expiration date. Use only fresh detergent.

• Vented dry heat is too harsh on some dishware.

You may need to use air dry option by leaving your door open for a while.

Stained in interior tub:

• Some detergents contain colorant known as "pigment" or "dyes" that will discolor

the tub with extended use. You need to change detergent without any colorant.

Read container label carefully before use of the detergent.

• Some "acid based" and "paste based" foods may discolor the tub. Use of rinse

cycle helps to decrease the level of staining.

Spots & filming found on flatware/glassware:

This is due to:

• Use of too little detergent.

• Low incoming water temperature and pressure.

• Improper loading.

• Use of old, moist and damp powder detergent.

• Hard water in you area.
