9 IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS:

Please READ and SAVE this information

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 and 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!



To avoid risk of injury (burn), always use caution when opening the door during or following a wash

cycle as hot water or steam may escape. Do not fully open the door until water noises have stopped

and steam has subsided..

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

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.

9WARNING

NOTICE

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

(operating instructions). Read and understand all instructions before using the dish-

washer.

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 equip-

ment grounding terminal 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 dish-

ware and kitchenware rated as dishwasher safe.

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 recom-

mendations.

• 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 responsibility of the

parents/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 dish-

washer 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 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 dish-

washer 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.

This appliance 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 cur-

rent. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor.

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

of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service representative if

you are in doubt whether the appliance is properly grounded.

Adding Detergent and Rinse Agent

Detergent

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

detergent or detergent tabs.

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.

This dishwasher uses less water than most, therefore, less detergent is required. With soft water, 1 tablespoon

(15 ml) of detergent will clean most loads. The detergent dispenser cup has lines that measure detergent to 1

tablespoon (15 ml) and 1.75 tablespoons (25 ml). 3 tablespoons (45 ml) of detergent will completely 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 recom-

mended in Table 1 on page 11.

Figure 5

Figure 4

Figure 6

Figure 7

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 deter-

gent contains a rinse aid or drying additive.

NOTE: The dishwasher indicates low rinse aid by turning on the “Refill Rinse Aid”

LED in the display. If this light is on, you need to refill the rinse aid dispenser by fol-

lowing the directions below.

Adding Rinse Aid

NOTICE

To avoid oversudsing or clogging, do not overfill the rinse aid dispenser.

Wipe up any spills with a damp cloth.

1 Add liquid rinse aid to the dispenser until it is full (see Figure 7). Do not overfill.

2 Close the lid. Lid must be fully closed until it clicks in order to seal.

Wipe up any excess rinse aid that may have puddled when the dispenser reservoir is full.

The indicator light will go out a few moments after the dishwasher door is shut. See page 14 for instructions on

how to adjust the amount of rinse aid dispensed.

Dishwasher Cycles and Options

Wash Cycles (model dependent)

NOTE: In order to save energy, itis recommended to set the “Auto Power Off” feature to “P:01” (see manual section

titled “Auto Power Off”).

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 dish-

ware and varying amounts of food soil. This is the most flexible cycle and is a good choice for everyday use.

Normal:

The Normal cycle is recommended for daily, regular, or typical use to completely wash a full load of

normally soiled dishes.

In order to obtain optimal performance with minimum energy consumption, it is recommended to dis-

able all available features as noted at the start of this section.

NOTE 1: See footnote for additional energy test setup instructions.

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 on page 6 of this manual for further infor-

mation. Hand washing may be the best treatment for “Not Recommended” 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. Select one of these

cycles, press the “Sanitize Option” button and then press Start to activate the Sanitation features. 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.

NOTE 1: The Energy Guide label was based on the Normal or Regular soil sensing cycle as follows: The unit was tested without any

Rinse Aid (liquid) in the Rinse Aid chamber. A single dose of detergent was inserted into the Detergent Dispenser, with no detergent

being used in the prewash. The unit was not subjected to truncated testing per the definitions in the test procedure. We recommend that

dish loads such as the one in the energy certification test have the rack position set in the highest position.

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 different than 120°F, your dishwasher’s cycle

times may be impacted.

NOTE: Only sanitizing cycles have been designed to meet the requirements of Section 6 of the NSF/ANSI Standard for Residential

Equipment for soil removal and sanitization efficacy. There is no intention, either directly or indirectly, to imply 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.

washer. Turn the rack upside down. The upper 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 clean-

ing, flush them under running water.

To reinstall the upper 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 upper rack to

the upper rack roller guides.

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

washer. 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 lower spray arm, return the lower spray arm to the installed position and

press it until it snaps into place. Return the lower 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 occa-

sionally inspect it for foreign objects and clean it when necessary.

WARNINGWARNIN

To remove the Large Object Trap, remove the lower 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.

seal, located inside the dishwasher at the bottom of the door.

Preparing your Dishwasher for Vacation

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

fessional servicer.
