IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS: Please READ

and SAVE this 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 in the following pages.

Severe product damage and/or injury could result from the use of unqualified service technicians or

non-original replacement parts. All repairs must be performed by a qualified service technician using

only original equipment factory replacement parts.

Electrical shock or fire 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 unless you are certain the electrical supply has been correctly installed or the

dishwasher has been properly grounded.

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

your dishwasher and may present health hazards!

Only sanitizing cycles have been designed to meet the requirements of 6 for soil removal and sanitation

efficacy. There is no intention, either directly or indirectly, that all cycles on a certified machine have

passed the sanitization performance test.

NOTICE

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

the possible damages or consequences.

It is highly recommended for the end user to become familiar with the procedure to shut off the incom-

ing water supply and the procedure to shut off the incoming power supply. See the Installation Instruc-

tions or contact your installer for more information.

NSF/ANSI 184 Certified residential dishwashers are not intended for licensed food establishments.

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical

shock, or serious injury, observe the following:

1 This dishwasher is provided with Installation Instructions and this Use and Care Manual. Read and

understand all instructions before using the dishwasher.

2 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 ter-

minal or lead on the dishwasher. See the Installation Instructions included with this dishwasher

for more information on electrical requirements.

3 Use this dishwasher only for its intended function, which is the washing of household dishware

and kitchenware.

4 Use only detergents or rinsing agents recommended for use in a dishwasher, and keep them out of

the reach of children.

5 When loading items to be washed:

• Locate sharp items so 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.

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

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

8 When children become old enough to operate the appliance, it is the legal responsibility of the par-

ents/legal guardians to ensure the children are instructed in safe practices by qualified persons.

9 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 con-

nected to a hot water system that has been unused for two weeks or longer, 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 explosive, do not smoke or use an open flame during this time.

10 Remove the dishwasher door to the washing compartment when removing an old dishwasher for

service or discarding.

11 To avoid floor damage and possible mold growth, do not allow wet areas to remain around or

under the dishwasher.

12 Protect your dishwasher from the elements. Protect against freezing to avoid possible damage to

the fill valve. Damage caused by freezing is not covered by the warranty.

13 For a cord-connect appliance:

• This appliance must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, ground-

ing will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for elec-

tric current. This appliance 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.

• Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in risk of elec-

tric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service representative if you are in

doubt whether the appliance is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided

with the appliance, if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a quali-

fied electrician.

Loading the Dishwasher

Do not pre-wash items with loosely attached soiling. Remove all food particles, bones, toothpicks and

excessive grease. Items having burned-on, baked-on or starchy soils may require some pretreatment.

Refer to the Dishware Materials section for more information about dishware suitability.

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

Ensure items do not protrude through the bottom of the racks and block the spray arms.

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 connects to the water supply at the back of the tub. Do not push racks in using the

door.

Loading the Bottom Rack

Place large items in the bottom rack. Load pots, pans and bowls upside down. Do not block vent with

tall baking sheets. Load these items on the left side of the dishwasher.

Unloading the Dishwasher

When unloading the dishwasher it is best to unload the bottom rack first. Next, unload the silverware

basket followed by the top rack.

NOTICE

To avoid dishwasher damage, do not load the dishwasher with paper products, plastic bags, packing

materials or anything other than normal, dishwasher safe dishware and kitchenware.

Rack Accessories

Flip Tines (model dependent)

The racks consist of tines that can be folded down depending on what you

may need to load in the rack. To fold down, grasp the folding tine and

release from notch. Push folding tine downward to desired position as

shown in Figure 1.

Adjustable Upper Rack (model dependent)

Remove the empty upper rack by pulling it out of the dishwasher until it can

be lifted upward as show in Figure 2. Pull the rack up and out until the roll-

ers are completely free of the roller guides.

Reinsert the rack with the other set of rollers on the roller guides as shown

in Figure 3.

Adding Detergent and Rinse Agent

Detergent

Use only detergent specifically designed for dishwashers. For best results, use fresh powdered dish-

washing detergent.

NOTICE

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

To avoid dishwasher damage, do not use too much detergent if your water is soft. Using too much

detergent with soft water may cause etching in glassware.

The dishwasher uses less water, therefore, less detergent is required. With soft water, 1 tablespoon

(15ml) of detergent will clean most loads. The detergent dispenser cup has lines that measure deter-

gent to 1 tablespoon (15ml) and 1.75 tablespoons (25ml). 3 tablespoons (45ml) of detergent will com-

pletely fill the detergent dispenser.

Note: If you do not know the hardness of your water supply, use 15ml of detergent. Increase the amount if

necessary to the least amount required to get your kitchenware clean.

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

recommended in Table 1.

Adding Detergent

• 1 tablespoon (15ml) will clean most loads (see Figure 4).

• Do not use more than 3 tablespoons (45ml).

• Do not over fill the detergent dispenser.

• When using detergent tabs, lay them flat to avoid contact with the cover.

To Close

• Place finger as shown in Figure 5.

• Slide door closed and press down firmly until it clicks.

To Open

• To open the cover, push the button as shown in Figure 6.

• Cover will slide open.

Rinse Aid

To achieve proper drying, always use a liquid rinse aid, even if your detergent

contains a rinse aid or drying additive.

Note: The dishwasher indicates low rinse aid by turning on the Rinse Aid indica-

tor light. If this light is on, you need to refill the rinse aid dispenser by following

the directions below.

Adding Rinse Aid

Add liquid rinse aid to the dispenser until the reservoir is full (see Figure 7).

Wipe up any excess rinse aid that may puddle when the dispenser reservoir

is full. The indicator light will go out a few moments after the dishwasher

door is shut. See pages 13 or 14 for instruction on how to adjust the amount

of rinse aid dispensed.

Dishwasher Cycles and Options

Wash Cycles (model dependent)

Heavy Wash: Best for cleaning items with baked-on food or grease. These dishes would normally

require soaking.

Auto Wash: With our most complex soil sensing capability, this cycle is perfect for use with mixed

loads of dishware with varying amounts of food soil. This is the most flexible cycle and is a good choice

for everyday use.

Normal Wash: Thoroughly cleans a full load of normally soiled dishes.

Note: The Energy Guide Label was based on this soil sensing cycle will all available options turned off. As prescribed in the energy

test procedure, the unit was tested without any Rinse Aid in the Rinse Aid dispenser. A single dose of detergent was used in the

Detergent Dispenser, with no detergent used in the prewash. The test was conducted with the upper rack in the highest position.

Delicate Wash: For delicate or heirloom dishware and silverware or other special items. Always make

sure that the items are dishwasher safe. Refer to the Dishware Materials section of this manual for fur-

ther information. Hand washing may be the best treatment for such items.

Express Wash: Cleans lightly soiled dishes and reduces overall wash time. Use this cycle to clean

glasses and dessert dishware that may need to be reused at the same event.

Half Load: Can reduce the energy and water consumption when washing small, lightly soiled loads that

fill approximately half of the dishwasher’s capacity.

Rinse & Hold: Allows you to rinse food soil off of a partial load and hold them in the dishwasher until

you are ready to run a full load.

Wash Cycle Options

Delay Start: Allows you to delay the start time of your dishwasher by 3, 6 or 9 hours.

Sanitize: The Sanitize feature is available only in the Heavy, Auto, Normal and Half Load cycles. Press the

“Sanitize” button to activate the Sanitation features during these cycles. The sanitize LED will light when

sanitation requirements are met. The technical sanitation measures may also improve the drying results.

Note: The dishwasher automatically defaults to Auto Wash when turned off and back on. If you used the sanitize option

in your last cycle, the dishwasher will default to Auto Wash with the Sanitize option selected when you turn it on.

Wash Cycle Information

Note: To save energy, this dishwasher has a “Smart Control” where the sensors in the dishwasher automatically adjust the cycle

length, temperature and water changes based on the amount of food soil and the incoming water temperature. The “Smart Control”

makes decisions that can cause the cycle time and water usage to adjust intermittently. Wash cycle times are based on 120°F

water supply. If your household water supply is higher than 120°F, your dishwasher’s heating time may be reduced and the “Sani-

tized” light or symbol may not illuminate.

Note: Only sanitizing cycles have been designed to meet the requirements of 6 for soil removal and sanitization efficacy. There is no

intention, either directly or indirectly, that all cycles have passed sanitization performance tests.

Care and Maintenance

Maintenance Tasks

Certain areas of the dishwasher require occasional maintenance. The maintenance tasks are easy to do

and will ensure continued superior performance from your dishwasher.

Wiping up spills and splash-outs

Water may occasionally splash out of your dishwasher, particularly if you interrupt a cycle or open the

dishwasher door during a cycle. To avoid floor damage and possibly mold growth, do not allow wet

areas to remain around or under the dishwasher.

Clean the stainless steel inner door and tub

Clean the outer edges of the inside door panel regularly to remove debris that may collect from normal

loading. If spots begin to appear on the stainless steel, make sure the rinse agent is full and functioning

properly.

Check and clean spray arm nozzles

Remove the top spray arm by first removing the empty top rack from the dish-

washer. Turn the rack upside down. The top spray arm is held in position by a

locking nut as shown in Figure 8. Turn the locking nut counterclockwise and

remove it to release the spray arm. Look for obstruction in the spray nozzles. If

the spray nozzles need cleaning, flush them under running water.

To reinstall the top spray arm, place it back in position and return the locking

nut to its install position. Turn the locking nut clockwise to secure. Return the

top rack to the top rack roller guides.

Remove the bottom spray arm by first removing the empty bottom rack from

the dishwasher. Grasp and lift the spray arm as shown in Figure 9. Look for

obstruction in the spray nozzles. If the spray nozzles need cleaning, flush them

under running water.

To reinstall the bottom spray arm, return the bottom spray arm to the installed

position and press it until it snaps into place. Return the bottom rack to the

installed position.

Check and clean the filter system

The filter system consists of a Large Object Trap, Fine Filter and a

Micro Filter.

The filter system is located on the inside of your dishwasher under the

lower rack and is easily accessible. During normal use, the filter system is

self-cleaning. You should occasionally inspect it for foreign objects and

clean it when necessary.

CAUTION

To avoid injury, do not reach into the large object trap with your fingers.

The large object trap could contain sharp objects.

To remove the Large Object Trap, remove the bottom rack. Grasp the assembly

and turn it counterclockwise as shown in Figure 10. Lift the assembly out.

Carefully examine the assembly. If you find debris in the Large Object Trap, turn

it upside-down and gently tap it on a flat surface to dislodge and remove

debris.

Flush the Micro Filter clean by holding it under running water.

To reinstall the filter system, return the fine filter to the installed position. Turn the locking nut clock-

wise until it is locked. The arrow on the ring handle and the arrow on the Fine Filter should point at

each other.

Clean the exterior door panel

Colored doors: use only a soft cloth 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 and then

wipe the surface.

Clean the door gasket

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.

Winterizing your unit

If your dishwasher will be unused for an extended period of time in a location that experiences freezing

temperatures (holiday home or through a vacation period), have your dishwasher winterized by an

authorized professional service. Turn your household water supply to the dishwasher off when on

extended vacation or when dishwasher will not be used for more than 1 month.
