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.
To avoid possible dishwasher damage, do not use harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners, scouring pads
(metal or plastic), or abrasive cloths/paper towels to clean your dishwasher’s exterior door panel.
Your dishwasher's exterior door panel can be damaged by doing so.
NSF/ANSI 184 Certified residential dishwashers are not intended for licensed food establishments.

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.
13
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.

Dishware Materials
NOTE: Before using your dishwasher for the first time, check the information in this section. Some items are not dish-
washer safe and should be hand washed; others require special loading.
Recommended:
Aluminum: Colored anodized aluminum may fade over time. Minerals in your water may cause the aluminum to
darken or spot. This can usually be removed with a soap-filled steel wool pad.
China, Crystal, Stoneware: Some hand-painted utensils may discolor, fade or spot. Hand wash these utensils.
Position fragile glassware so that it will not topple over or come in contact with other utensils during the wash
cycle.
Glass: Milk glasses may discolor or become yellow.
Non-stick Coatings: Apply a light coating of vegetable oil to non-stick surfaces after drying.
Plastics: Make sure the plasticware is dishwasher safe.
Stainless Steel, Sterling Silver and Silver Plates: Load these so they do not come in contact with other metals.
Not Recommended:
Acrylic: Crazing or small cracks throughout the acrylic, may occur.
Adhesive-Joined Pieces: Adhesives that join materials such as plastic, wood, bone, steel copper, tin, etc. may
loosen.
Bone-Handled Utensils: Handles may separate.
Iron: Iron will rust. Hand wash and dry immediately.
Non-Dishware Items: Your dishwasher is intended for use in cleaning ONLY standard household dishware and kitchen-
ware.
Pewter, Brass, Bronze: These items will tarnish. Hand wash and dry immediately.

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.
WARNING
The sharp points and edges of knives and other sharp utensils can cause serious injuries. Load knives and other
sharp utensils with edges down. Do not allow children to handle or play near knives and sharp utensils.
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.
Loading the Upper Rack
Ensure items do not protrude through the bottom of the racks and block the spray arms.
NOTE: When pushing the upper rack into the dishwasher, push it until it stops against the back of the tub so the upper rack
spray arm connects to the water supply at the back of the tub. Do not push racks in using the door.
Loading the Lower Rack
Place large items in the lower 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

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.
11
Figure 5

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.
3
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.
13
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.
Check and Clean Spray Arm Nozzles
Remove the upper spray arm by first removing the empty upper rack from the dish-
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

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.
To reinstall the filter system, return the fine filter to the installed position. Turn the
locking nut clockwise until it is locked. The arrow on the ring handle and the arrow
on the Fine Filter should point at each other.

Use caution when removing parts for cleaning as some debris may
be sharp.
