Your safety and the safety of others is 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 hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.
All safety messages will be preceded by the safety alert symbol and the
word “DANGER” or “WARNING.” These words mean:
3
You will be killed or seriously injured
if you don’t follow instructions.
You can be killed or seriously injured
if you don’t follow instructions.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
Do not operate the dishwasher unless
all enclosure panels are properly in
place.
Do not tamper with controls.
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.
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 EXPLO-
SIVE. If the 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 to the washing
compartment when removing an old
dishwasher from service or discarding it.
WARNING When using the
dishwasher, follow basic precautions,
including the following:
Read all instructions before using the
dishwasher.
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.
wDANGER
wWARNING
All safety messages will identify the hazard, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury,
and tell you what can happen if the instructions are not followed.

Starting Your Dishwasher
wWARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard
Electrically ground dishwasher.
Connect ground wire to green ground
connector in terminal box.
Do not use an extension cord.
Failure to follow these instructions
can result in death, fire, or
electrical shock.
wWARNING
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 conduc-
tor 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.

Preparing to load the dishwasher
To save water and energy, do not rinse
dishes before putting them into the
dishwasher.
Remove large pieces of food, bones, and
other hard items. The POWER CLEAN
TM
filter module removes food particles from
the water. The module contains a chopping
device which reduces the size of food
items.
NOTE: If hard items such as fruit seeds,
nuts, and egg shells enter the
POWER CLEAN filter module, you might
hear chopping, grinding, crunching, or
buzzing sounds. Those sounds are normal
when hard items enter the module. Do not
let metallic items (such as pot handle
screws) get into the POWER CLEAN filter
module. Damage can occur.
Foods like eggs, rice, pasta, and cooked
cereals may be hard to remove if left to
dry over a period of time. Run a Rinse
Only cycle to keep dishes moist if you do
not plan to wash them soon.
Loading the cutlery basket
(on some models)
Use the cutlery basket to hold long items.
Always unload or remove the cutlery basket
before unloading the racks to avoid spilling
water on the cutlery.
IMPORTANT: Remove the basket and tip
the contents onto a cutting board to unload.
This helps avoid accidents with sharp points
and edges.
To remove the cutlery basket:
1. Grasp the basket on both sides and slide
it toward the top of the door.
2. Lift the basket off the holding buttons.
To replace the cutlery basket:
1. Set the basket on the holding buttons.
2. Slide the basket toward the bottom of the
door until it locks into place.
Load dishes so soiled surfaces face the
rotating spray arm.
Load dishes so they are not stacked or
overlapping. It is important for the water
spray to reach all soiled surfaces for best
washing. For best drying, water must be
able to drain from all surfaces.
Loading for quiet operation
Secure lightweight load items in the racks.
Pot lids and handles, pizza pans, cookie
sheets, etc. should not touch interior walls
or interfere with the spray arm’s rotation.
Load dishes so they do not touch one
another.
NOTE: Keep sink drain plugs inserted
during dishwasher operation to prevent
noise transfer through drains.

Loading the silverware basket
Load the silverware basket while it is in
the door or take the basket out for loading
on a counter or table.
Mix items in each section of the basket
with some pointing up and some down to
avoid nesting. Spray cannot reach nested
items. Load spoons with baked on food
pointing up.
IMPORTANT: Always load sharp items
(knives, skewers, forks, etc.) pointing
down.
Put small items (baby bottle caps, jar lids,
etc.) in the section with the lid.
You can also remove the basket for easy
unloading. Always unload or remove the
basket before unloading the racks to avoid
spilling water on the silverware.
NOTE: The basket may be hung on the
door or on the bottom rack. It can also be
placed inside the bottom rack.
To remove the basket:
1. Grab the basket by the handle and slide
it toward the top of the door.
2. Lift the basket off the holding buttons.
To replace the basket:
1. Set the basket on the holding buttons.
2. Slide the basket towards the bottom of
the door until it locks in place.

Use automatic dishwashing detergent
only. Other detergents are too mild and
much too sudsy.
Add detergent just before starting cycle.
Store tightly closed detergent in a cool, dry
place. Fresh automatic dishwasher
detergent results in better cleaning.
Using the Dispensers
Using the detergent dispenser
How much detergent to use
The amount of detergent to use depends on the hardness of your water and the type of
detergent. If you use too little, dishes won’t be clean. If you use too much in soft water,
glassware will etch.
Find out your water’s hardness by asking your local water department, water softener
company, or county extension agent.
NOTE: Fill amounts shown are for standard powdered detergent. Amounts may vary if you
use liquid or concentrated powdered detergent. Follow instructions on the package when
using liquid dishwasher detergent or concentrated powdered detergent.
Filling the detergent dispenser
The detergent dispenser has one section
with a cover and one without. Push the
cover down firmly until it latches. Detergent
in the open section falls into the dishwasher
when closing the door. The covered section
opens automatically for the main wash. It is
normal for the cover to open partially when
dispensing detergent.
NOTE: Use both sections for cycles with
two washes. Use only the covered section
for cycles with one wash. See the cycles
chart for more details.
AMOUNT OF DETERGENT
For normal loads:
Partially fill the Main Wash section (2 tablespoons or 30 grams)
Fill the Pre-Wash section (2 tablespoons or 30 grams)
NOTE: Add only 1 tablespoon or 15 grams of detergent to the
Pre-Wash section if dishes are prerinsed or water is very soft.
For baked on soil loads:
Fill the Main Wash section (2 tablespoons or 30 grams)
Fill the Pre-Wash section (2 tablespoons or 30 grams)
For heavily soiled loads:
Fill the Main Wash section (3 tablespoons or 45 grams)
Fill the Pre-Wash section (2 tablespoons or 30 grams)
For normal and heavily soiled loads:
Fill the Main Wash section (3 tablespoons or 45 grams)
Fill the Pre-Wash section (2 tablespoons or 30 grams)

Using the rinse agent dispenser
Keep the rinse agent dispenser filled with a
liquid rinse agent. A rinse agent greatly
improves dish drying by helping water
flow off during the last rinse. A rinse
agent also keeps water from forming
droplets and drying as spots or streaks.
A small amount of rinse agent automatically
releases into the rinse water during the final
rinse of each cycle. For best drying
results, check dispenser periodically to
see if it needs filling.
To check dispenser:
Check center of Fill Indicator Cap. Clear
means it needs filling.
OR
Remove Fill Indicator Cap. An “E” is visible
when dispenser is empty.
To fill dispenser:
The rinse agent dispenser holds 6 ounces
(175 mL). Under normal conditions, this
lasts about 3 months.
1. Open dishwasher door completely.
2. Remove Fill Indicator Cap.
3. Add rinse agent. Fill to smallest opening
in lower part of dispenser only. Overfilling
may cause rinse agent to leak out. This
will not harm the dishwasher, but could
cause oversudsing.
4. Clean up any spilled rinse agent with
a damp cloth.
5. Replace Fill Indicator Cap. Keep it
closed tightly.
NOTE: You do not have to wait until the
dispenser is empty before refilling, but do
not overfill it. Your dishwasher is designed
to use a liquid rinse agent. You do not need
to use a solid or bar-type rinse agent.

SANI RINSE
TM
option
(on some models)
Selecting the SANI RINSE option raises the
water temperature in the final
rinse to 150°F (65°C). SANI
RINSE is an option with the
Pots-N-Pans, Heavy, Normal,
Low Energy and China cycles. Depending
on the incoming temperature of your water,
cycle times might be longer when you select
SANI RINSE.
NOTE: SANI RINSE raises the temperature
of the final rinse to 150°F (65°C), and main-
tains that temperature 9 minutes. This high
temperature rinse sanitizes your dishes and
glassware.
Air Dry
When Air Dry is selected, the air in the
dishwasher is not heated during
the “dry” portion of a cycle. Using
Air Dry helps save energy, but
dishes take longer to dry and
some spotting can occur. Some items (such
as plastics) may need towel drying. For best
drying, use a liquid rinse agent.
NOTE: The dishwasher automatically heats
the air in the dishwasher during the “dry”
portion of the cycle unless you select Air Dry.

Wait for spraying action to stop before
opening the door.
2. Open the door and add the item.
3. Close the door, but do not latch it. Wait
30 seconds for the air in the dishwasher
to warm up. Doing so reduces the
amount of moisture in the vent when
restarting a cycle.
4. Close the door firmly until it latches. The
dishwasher resumes the cycle.
For series 925 and 940 models:
You can add an additional item to the dish-
washer anytime before the main portion of a
cycle. See the “Selecting a wash cycle”
chart.
For series 980 model:
You can add items to the dishwasher load
anytime the Add-A-Dish indi-
cator is on.
