This manual does not cover every possible

condition and situation that may occur. Use

common sense and caution when installing,

operating and maintaining any appliance.

National Sanitation Foundation (NSF)certified

residential dishwashers are not intended for

licensed food establishments. Such

establishments require a higher dishwasher

water temperature to meet commercial

sanitization requirements.

DISHWASHER MUST BE ELECTRICALLY

GROUNDED. Read the Installation

Instructions for details.

This dishwasher is designed to operate on

regular house current (120 V.60 Hz). Use a

circuit equipped with a 15 ampere fuse or

circuit breaker. Use a 20 ampere fuse or

circuit breaker if dishwasher is connected

with a food waste disposer.

HOW YOUR D_SHWASHER CLEANS

Your dishwasher fills with a small amount of water

(just covers the filter area at the bottom), sprays

that water on to the dishware to remove soils,

captures the soils in its filtration system and then

uses that water to flush the captured soils down the

drain. When more soils are present more iterations

of the fill/spray/filter/flush are applied. When

appropriate, detergent, heat and/or rinse agent are

also aplied to the spray water at the optimal times

within the cycle.

The applied cycle (number of fills, spray pressure,

water temperature, addition of detergent, addition

of rinse agent, and amount of heat for drying) is set

by a combination of your cycle and option

selections and many automated decisions

programmed into your dishwasher. Your input sets

the temperature targets but the dishwasher will

automatically adjust heat input to account for the

actual heat loss, thermal capacity of the dish load,

and temperature of the incoming water. The

dishwasher also has the capacity to measure the

soil load and to shorten or lengthen the cycle to

apply the optimal response.

To run your dishwasher, follow these

basic steps:

Load dishwasher. (See Preparing and Loading

Dishes, pages 8-10.)

Add detergent. (See Dishwasher Dispenser &

Detergents, pages 11-12.)

Add rinse aid, if needed. (See Rinse Aid,

page 13.)

Select desired CYCLE. (See Cycle Selections,

pages 5 -7.)

The cycle LED will illuminate when selected.

5 Select desired OPTIONS. (See Energy

Options Selections, page 5-7.)

The option LED will illuminate when selected.

6 To start, press START/CANCEL pad and close

door. (See Start/Cancel, page 7.)

Though your dishwasher has many enhancements

to reduce its sound level, it is normal to hear some

of what is going on inside. The wash cycles

include several instances of water entering the unit

(splashing), the wash pump running to spray water

on the dishware (motor & splashing) and the drain

pump running to discharge the dirty water and

soils. Variations in the pumping/spraying sounds

are also normal. During a cycle the pump switches

on and off many times and the spray pressure is

adjusted up and down throughout to provide the

best cleaning performance.

WASH CYCLE SELECTIONS

Cycle times are approximate and vary by options

selected. Hot water is necessary to activate

dishwasher detergent and melt fatty food soils.

An automatic sensor checks the water temperature

fhroughout each cycle. When HI-TEMP WASH is

selected, the unit heats the water to an even higher

temperature. Run hot water faucet nearest

dishwasher until water is hot before starting.

CYCLE SELECTIONS

You may find that your highly efficient dishwasher

actually washes longer than your old one. The

hydraulic system and cycles are carefully designed

to use less heat and less water. To assure the

dishes get clean with less use of costly resources

more time is spent spraying water. The pump uses

little energy. The advanced filter design allows

water to be used longer before needing to replace it

and results in a better use of resources.

Cycle durations, wash temperatures and water

usage all vary with the cycle and options selected.

When incoming water or the room is colder the unit

will heat and wash longer to be sure to achieve

critical temperatures.

Your dishwasher also uses a Smart Sensor to

understand how heavily soiled the dish load is and

to adjust the cycle accordingly. This sensor is

calibrated at the end of most cycles - when the unit

is sure to have a small amount of clean water

around the sensor. The sensor will not be

calibrated for the first cycle run after power has

been removed from the dishwasher. To assure you

get clean dishes the unit defaults to the cycle

option that is suited for heavy soils on this first run

after power is restored.

Normal Wash

This cycle is an automated, one-cycle-fits-all

solution that is appropriate for all but very special

loads. Its automatic adjustment and wash limits

are nearly identical to the Auto Wash described

above.

QuickWash

This cycle uses power and water (about 6.1 gallons)

at a higher rate to wash dishes quickly

(approximately 42 to 52 minutes). The cycle is

designed to wash lightly soiled or pre-rinsed dishes

and silverware.

Rinse

This cycle is intended for rinsing off food soils when

you do not intend to run afull cycle until much later.

Rinse uses much less water than you would use

rinsing by hand. Unheated water is used to

dissolve and remove much of the soils and wash

them down the drain before they can dry in place or

spoil.

Heavy Wash

This is a hard hitting cycle for pots, pans, casserole

dishes and dinnerware with dried-on or baked-on

soils. Water usage is about 9.2 gallons. Wash time

ranges from approximately 140 to 162 minutes.

Auto Wash

This excellent all around cycle uses the

SmartSensor to determine the amount soils that

were on the dishware. Cycle time and water usage

are then automatically adjusted to assure the soils

are fully and efficently removed. Soils from light to

extreme are accommodated. Light soils will result

in a short cycle, heavy soils in a long cycle. Water

usage varies between 3.1 to 9.1 gallons while cycle

duration varying from 93 to 131 minutes.

ENERGY OPTmONSELECTMONS

Hi-Temp Wash

When the HI-TEMP option is selected, the

dishwasher heats water in the main wash to

approximately 140°F (60°C) and in the final rinse to

150°F (65°C). HI-TEMP ON will be displayed.

This increase in water temperature helps

dishwasher detergent remove food, grease and soil

from dishes more effectively and aids in drying.

The HI-TEMP option can only be used with AUTO,

HEAVY and NORMAL cycles.

When the HI-TEMP option is selected, the LED will

illuminate and remain on until the door is closed.

Operating Instructions 7

Child Lock Controls/Air Dry

To prevent children from accidentally changing or

starting a dishwasher cycle, lock the dishwasher

controls by pressing the AIR DRY icon for at least 3

seconds then release. The LOCKED indicator light

will illuminate when the controls are locked. Then

no new selections can be made and dishwasher

will not operate until the lock is released. To unlock

the controls, again press the AIR DRY icon for 3

seconds and release.

Sanitize

To sanitize your dishes, glassware and silverware

select the SANITIZE option available on the Auto,

Heavy, and Normal cycles. Only these cycles offer

the option to meet NSF Sanitization requirements.

Start/Cancel

To start a cycle, press the START/CANCEL key

once and close the door. To cancel when a cycle is

running, open the door and Dress the START/

CANCEL key once. Close the door again and the

dishwasher will drain and shut off.

NOTE

Opening the door during normal operation will

only pause the selected cycle.

Error Indications

When the Sanitize option is selected an LED above

the icon resembling a thermometer will illuminate.

The unit will then drive the water to higher

temperatures, up to about 155°F (68.3°C)in the final

rinse, and maintain that temperature for 7 minutes.

Sanitization is accomplished when the water

reaches a set temperature and the dishware is

assured to have achieved a specific temperature

and amount of heat input.

Your unit monitors wash parameters and compo-

nent communications. If any event or failure occurs

that might prevent proper machine function or safe

operation the unit will shut down and indicate an

error by flashing all indicator lights. If the lights are

flashing contact the Electrolux Customer Care

Center at 1-877-435-3287. They wil be able to

provide assistance in troubleshooting the problem

and/or locating an authorized service technician, if

needed.

When the sanitized option is selected the

dishwasher will complete the cycle. However, the

sanitization LED, located in the center of the

keypad, will only light at the end of the cycle if ALL

of the NSF criteria are met.

Possible errors are detailed on Dage20. In the

case of an error, an LED on the bottom control

board in the base of your unit will further indicate

the root cause for error as shown on page 21.

Failure to reach sanitization may mean that the

cycle was interrupted due to power loss or the

opening of the dishwasher's door during the final

rinse. Another possibility is a failure to reach

temperature which might occur if the incoming

water istoo cold. Within limits, the unit

automatically adjusts for variations in water supply

temperature and so this will not normally occur.

OPE TmON SELECTMONS

Delay Start

The dishwasher start can be delayed 2, 4, or 6

hours from the time the cycle is initiated. Make

cycle selections, press the DELAY START key until

the desired delay LED is it, then close the door and

the cycle will start.

Automatic Overflow Correction and

Prevention

During the entire cycle your dishwasher watches for

high water level. Inthe rare instance that correction

is needed, it will pause the cycle, drain (often a few

seconds is sufficient) then resume the cycle.

If corrective draining continues for 90 seconds

without lowering the water level your unit will stop

the cycle and initiate error 16 (Float switch stuck/

Drain clogged).

If the water level must be corrected 7 times during

a cycle, your unit will stop the cycle and initiate

error 15 (Stuck water valve). It will then periodically

run the drain pump to prevent flooding until some-

one arrives to clear the error and turn off the water.

To cancel the delay and start the cycle before the

delay period is over, open the door and press the

START/CANCEL key. Close the door and the cycle

will start.

D SH PREPA TMON

Scrape away large pieces of food, bone, pits,

toothpicks, etc. The wash system will remove

remaining food particles. Gently scrape away

burned-on food with a non-scratch utensil or let

dish soak before before loading them into the

dishwaher (See Figure 1). Empty liquids from

glasses and cups.

Foods containing vegetable oil and/or chemical

additives such as mustard, mayonnaise, vinegar,

lemon juice or tomato-based products may cause

discoloration of stainless steel and plastics if

allowed to sit for a long period of time. Unless the

dishwasher is to be operated at once, it is best to

rinse off these food soils.

Load racks so that large items do not

prevent the detergent dispenser from

opening.

Check dishware manufacturer's

recommendations before washing

items in question.

If the dishwasher drains into a food

disposal, be sure disposal is

completely empty before starting

dishwasher.

Tips for Loading the Racks -

Soil is removed when water is sprayed on each

surface. For optimal cleaning, load dishware and

silverware so that it is not touching each other.

Then every surface is exposed to the cleaning jets.

Corner positions are the hardest to reach for spray

arms. It is best to put the tallest glasses away

from the corner positions of the upper rack.

Always place dishware with open ends facing down

for best cleaning and drying.

Some dishes have rims or indentations that may

capture and hold water. For improved drying use

the slopes built into the rack and the position of the

tines to place this dishware so that the surfaces are

not horizontal to help drain as much out as

possible.

Load delicate items securely in the rack without

allowing them to touch other dishware. This will

minimize the chance that they will tip or collide with

other dishware and become damaged when the

rack is moved or when the spray jets are turned on.

In some dishwashers it is not safe to load glasses

or plastics into the lower rack - mainly because

they have an exposed heater just below it. This is

not one of them. The same strong, gentle jets and

the same temperature water is applied to the

dishware in both the upper and lower racks. You're

free to place the dishware where it fits best.

Figure I

LOADMNGTHE TOP RACK

The top rack is optimized for flexibility in loading a

wide variety of items but especially cups, glasses,

stemware, small plates and small bowls.

Be sure that nothing protrudes through the bottom

of the rack or can shift to protrude so that the

middle spray arm is blocked. If in doubt, give the

arm a spin to see if there is interference.

ADJUSTMNG RACK HEIGHT

The top rack has two height settings. Adjust the

rack down to the low height to accommodate

loading of tall glasses. Adjust it to the high setting

to make room for tall dishware in the lower rack.

To avoid damage to dishware always adjust the

upper rack's height before loading dishware into it.

Tochange the rack position with the greatest ease

lift or lower the rack so that it remains level from

front to back and from side to side. To raise the

rack from the low to the high position simply grab

the top rack (one hand on each side) and lift it

straight up. The lever is spring loaded and will

engage when the upper position is reached. To

release the rack and lower it to the bottom position

grab the rack as shown in the figure below, extend

your fingers to pull on the lever and gently lower the

Dishwasher Dispenser & Detergents

RLLING THE DETERGENT

The detergent dispenser has two cups one for the

pre-wash and another for the main wash. Once the

detergent is placed the dispenser door should be

closed. Open slots over the pre-wash cup allow it

to enter at the time of the first wash. During the

main wash the door will automatically open to allow

the main wash cup detergent to enter and work with

the heated water of the main wash.

If the detergent cups have water in them,

lift the door to the closed position to

remove the water then re-open to place

the detergent.

Place the detergent into the dishwasher

just before starting the cycle to minimize

the chance for it to become moist.

Use only automatic dishwashing deter-

gent. Other detergents will cause

oversudsing.

When using automatic dishwashing

detergent tablets or packets place just

one in the main wash cup and close the

dispenser door.

Store detergent in a cool, dry location.

Moist or caked detergent may not

dissolve properly.

Main Wash Cup

MUCH DETERGENT TO

USE

The amount of detergent to use depends upon the

water hardness. The greater the concentration of

minerals in solution, the "harder" the water.

Minerals are actually good for you and up to a

point, changes in the amount of detergent can be

used to assure a proper wash. If the water is too

hard, then it is difficult to get a good wash and the

minerals may stain or build up on the dishware and

dishwasher. In that case a water softener is

recommended.

Using too little detergent can result in poor cleaning

and hard water filming or spotting. Using too much,

especially in combination with high water

temperatures, can result in permanent damage to

the surface of dishware called "etching" (see

"etching", page 18). Etching on glassware gives

their surface the apperance of a hazy film.

For the proper amount of detergent use the chart

provided.

! iiiilli ii!i iiiii IIII

Your local water company, water softener company,

or county extension agent can tell you the water

hardness in your area. There are many different

units used to describe water hardness so be sure

to ask them for the measure in grains per US gallon

(gpg) used in the chart. If they are not able, water

RINSE AmD

Rinse aid greatly improves drying and reduces

waterspots and filming. It causes the water to

"sheet" off of dishes rather than form water

droplets that cling and leave spots.

The rinse aid dispenser, located next to the

detergent cup, automatically releases a measured

amount of rinse aid during the last rinse. If spotting

and poor drying are problems, increase the amount

of rinse aid dispensed by rotating the dial to a

higher number. The dial is located under the

dispenser cap.

If the rinse aid is low, the LOW RINSE LED is

illuminated at the beginning and end of the cycle

indicating that it is time to refill.

To add liquid rinse aid:

1 Turn dispenser cap 1/4 turn counterclockwise

and lift out.

Pour in rinse aid until liquid reaches the flat

surface marked MAX in the Rinse Aid

dispenser. Do not overfill since this can

cause oversudsing.

3 Replace cap.

Wipe up any spills with a damp cloth.

The dispenser holds enough for 35 to 140 washes,

depending on the setting.

adjust its washing and heating time. Limits are

placed on adjustments to prevent excessively long

or short cycles.

The first pre-wash in each cycle is typically

unheated and gets the dose of detergent from the

pre-wash cup of the dis_)enser. The detergent _s

more effective at 120°Fthan at the 90°F or even

70°F water that you might get the first time you

open the valve. To get optimal cleaning it is

recommended that the hot water be run in the sink

next to the dishwasher until the cold water is

purged from the line. Then shut off the sink and

start the dishwasher cycle.

Plastic items will likely need to be towel

dried. This geometry is more likely to

capture water. Also. plastic does not hold

heat as well so that when the cycle is over.

there is little heat left in the _)lastic with

which to evaporate the remaining water on

its surface.

To check water temperature entering the

dishwasher:

1 Turn on hot water faucet nearest dishwasher

for several minutes to clear cool water from

pipes.

2 Hold a candy or meat thermometer in stream

of water to check the tern perature.

3 If temperature is below 120°F (49°C), have a

qualified person raise the water heater

thermostat setting.

Tips for Dryer Dishes -

Rinse agents help to minimize the amount of water

that remains on dishware when the unit is drained.

Water that remains on the dishware is evaporated

in large part due to the heat that is stored in the

dishware at the end fo the cycle. Plastics do not

store much heat and so they do not dry as well.

When the water becomes vapor (moist air) it is

removed by a fan.

Water that is captured in the up turned lip or

indentation of dishware may not evaporate. To

avoid having this fall on to dishes that are dry

during the unloading process follow the following

sequence: Unload the bottom rack first, then the

top rack. In either rack, first unload the dishware

that is fully dry, then remove dishware that has free

standing rinse water on or in it.

At the end of the cycle your unit will stop the wash,

complete a drain and light the LED to tell you the

cycle is ended. At this time you may unload the

dishes. If you are not there or do not empty it

immediately the unit will run a very small fan for up

to an hour longer or until someone opens the door

(which ever comes first) to further improve the

drying. This fan uses very little energy.

WATER PRESSURE

The hot water line to the dishwasher must provide

water pressure between 20 and 90 pounds per

square inch (psi).

Low water pressure may occur when laundry or

showers are inoperation. Wait until water use is

reduced before starting the dishwasher.

Before starting a cycle, run hot water to clear

cool water from pipe.

Care & Cleaning

Occasionally wipe the outside surfaces of your

dishwasher with a mild nonabrasive detergent and Read before operating your dishwasher!

water. Rinse and dry.

Stainless Steel Door

Clean the stainless steel door and handle with hot,

soapy water and a dishcloth. Rinse with clean

water and a cloth. Do not use harsh scrubbing

cleaners. Use only kitchen cleaners made

especially for cleaning stainless steel.

MNSMDE

Remove spots on the door and tub with a damp,

nonabrasive cloth.

Care of Glass Trap Filter

Your dishwasher is equipped with a state of the art

wash system. Periodically, the Glass Trap Filter and

Large Food Particle Trap may need to be cleaned to

maximize wash performance.

The Glass Trap Filter is located in the center of the

Large Food Particle Trap. The Glass Trap Filter is

designed to collect large debris such as pieces of

broken glass, straws, bones and pits. To remove

items in the Glass Trap Filter. grasp the handle.

push it forward slightly as you ift out. empty and

replace.

The Large Food Particles Trap may be cleaned by

wiping with adamp Daper towel.

Care & Cleaning

Care of Drain Air Gap

If a drain a_rgap was installed for your built-in

dishwasher, check to make sure it is clean so the

dishwasher wil drain properly. A drain air gap is

usually mounted on the sink at the countertop and

can be inspected by removing the cover. This is not

Dart of your dishwasher and is not covered by

warranty.

CAUTION

Freezing temperatures may cause water lines

to rupture. Be sure all supply lines to and

circulating lines within dishwasher are

protected. Failure to do so could result in

property damage.

A dishwasher left in an unheated place should be

protected from freezing. Have a qualified person do

the following:

To Disconnect Service:

Turn off electrical power to the dishwasher at

the supply source by removing fuses or

tripping circuit breaker.

Shut off water supply.

Place a pan under the inlet valve. Disconnect

water line from inlet valve and drain into pan.

4 Disconnect drain line and drain water into

pan.

To Restore Service:

1 Reconnect the water, drain, and electrical

power supply.

2 Turn on water and electrical power supply.

3 Fill both detergent cups and run dishwasher

through a HEAVY WASH cycle.

See Installation Instructions for more details.

Solutions to Common Problems

Before calling for service, review this list, It may

save you both time and expense. This list

includes common experiences that are not the

result of defective workmanship or material in

your dishwasher.

FOOD SOMLS LEFT ON

Make sure items are not blocking any of the

spray arms, preventing them from rotating.

Check incoming water temperature. (See

Getting Started, page 5.) It should be at least

120°F (49°C). (See Factors Affecting

Performance, page 14.)

Choose another cycle for longer washing

time.

Check rack loading section for proper

loading--avoid nesting items.

Home water pressure may be too low--

should be 20 to 90 pounds per square inch

(psi).

Check water hardness. More detergent is

needed when water is hard. For extremely

hard water, it may be necessary to install a

water softener. (See Detergent Usage Guide,

page 12.)

Use fresh detergent.

Consider running the rinse cycle when soiled

dishes are expected to sit in the dishwasher

for hours before running a wash cycle.

DmSHESNOT DRY

• Make sure the rinse aid dispenser is filled.

• Increase the amount of rinse aid (See Rinse

Aid, page 13).

• Checkthe incoming water temperature. Be

sure it is at least 120°F (49°C).

• Check for proper loading--avoid nesting

items.

Plastic items will likely need to be towel

dried. Plastic items generally are less flat -

shape gives stiffness to the more flexible

material. This geometry is more likely to

capture water. Also, plastic does not hold

heat as well so that when the cyle is over,

there is little heat left in the pastic with which

to evaporate the remaining water on its

surface.

Cups with a concave bottom will collect

water.

See Tips for Dryer Dishes, page 14.

DISHWARE CHIPPED

Load with care and do not overload. (See

Preparing and Loading Dishes, pages 8-10.)

Place delicate items in top rack.

Place glasses securely against pins and not

over pins.

Load items so they are secure and don't jar

loose when moving racks in and out. Move

racks in and out slowly.

Make sure tall glasses and stemware will

clear top of tub when rack is pushed in.

It is recommeded to wash fine antique china

and crystal by hand.

Check water hardness. For extremely hard

water, it may be necessary to install a water

softener. (See Detergent Usage Guide, page

13.)

Water temperature may be low. Avoid

extremely low or high temperatures. (See

Factors Affecting Performance, page 14.)

Avoid overloading and improper loading. (See

Preparing and Loading Dishes, pages 8-10.)

Use fresh detergent. Old detergent is

ineffective.

Make sure rinse aid dispenser is filled.

Check to see that the proper amount of

detergent is being used for cycle selected.

(See Detergent Dispenser, pages 12-13.)

Home water pressure may be too low--it

should be 20 to 90 pounds per square inch

(psi).

Using too much detergent, especially in

combination with high water temperatures,

can result in permanent damage to the

surface of dishware called "ETCHING".

Etching on glassware gives their surface the

appearance of a hazy film.

Adjust the amount of detergent based on

water table, Detergent Usage Guide, Page 12.

Lower the temperature (select a lower

temperature option or turn down the

temperature of the hot water heater if water

over 130°F is being supplied to the

dishwasher.

NORMAL SOUNDS YOU W_LL

H_R

• Normal sounds include water fill, water

circulation, draining water and motor sounds.

• Pump motor speed will increase and

decrease during cycles.

Tea and coffee can stain cups. Remove the

stains by hand washing in a solution of 1/2

cup (120 ml) bleach and one quart (1 L)of

warm water. Rinse thoroughly.

Iron deposits in water can cause a yellow or

brown film. A proper water filter or water

softener installed in-line with your water

supply will correct this problem.

Aluminum utensils can leave gray/black

marks when they rub against other items.

Load properly allowing spaces between

dishware.

Certain high acid foods can cause

discoloration of stainless steel and plastics if

allowed to sit for a long period. Use the Rinse

cycle or rinse by hand if not operating

dishwasher immediately after loading.

Mixing stainless steel and silver utensils in

silverware basket can cause pitting on the

stainless steel utensils. Avoid mixing

stainless steel and silver.

DETERGENT LE_ MN

DISPENSER CUP

Detergent may be old. Discard and use fresh

detergent.

Load dishware differnently in rack - spray

jets used to rinse detergent from cup may be

blocked.

• Check to see if cycle has been completed.

• Make sure items do not block the detergent

dispenser door from opening.

• Make sure the upper rack is firmly engaged

to the nozzle on the back of the tub before

closing the door.

Solutions to Common Problems

DmSNWASNERL_KS

Use only fresh detergent designed for

automatic dishwashers. Measure detergent

carefully. Try a different brand.

Spilled rinse aid can cause foam and lead to

overflowing. Wipe up any spills with a damp

cloth.

Check to see that dishwasher is level (See

Installation Instructions).

WATER IN THE BOSOM OF

THE TUB

It is not normal for water to remain in the

bottom of the tub at the end of a cycle. If

water remains in the bottom of the tub at the

end of a cycle, the dishwasher may not be

draining properly. (See Dishwasher Does Not

Drain Properly, page 19.) The filter may also

need to be cleaned. (See Care of Glass Trap

Filter, page 15.) Note: It is normal to see a

small amount of water under the filter and

glass trap at the end of a cycle.

DISHWASHER WON'T FILL

• Check to see if the water supply is turned

on.

• Check to see if inlet water hose in kinked.

• Check that float is in down position and make

sure it moves freely.

Check to see if circuit breaker is tripped or if

a fuse is blown.

• Make sure water supply isturned on.

• Check to see if cycle is set correctly.

(See Operating Instructions, pages 6-7.)

• Check to see if the Delay Start option has

been selected.

Make sure door is closed and latched.
