IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: When using the dishwasher, follow basic precautions, including the following:
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
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.
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, lid, 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 EXPLOSIVE. 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 or lid to the washing compartment
when removing an old dishwasher from service or
discarding it.
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
SAVE THESE 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 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.
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.
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.
WARNING

What’s New in Your Dishwasher
Energy
Congratulations on purchasing your water- and energy-efcient dishwasher! This dishwasher cleans
by spraying the dishes with water and pauses to allow the detergent to soak into and release the
soils on the dishes. The cycles are longer due to the soak and pauses for exceptional cleaning.
Your dishwasher contains an optical water sensor. The optical water sensor is used to determine the
optimum water and energy consumption for great cleaning performance. Efcient dishwashers run
longer to save water and energy, just as driving a car slower saves on gas. The rst cycle using the
sensor will run longer to calibrate the optical sensor.
Performance
Rinse Aid
Using rinse aid will optimize your drying and wash performance. This
dishwasher is specically designed to be used with rinse aid for improved
drying performance and controlling buildup of hard water deposits. The use
of rinse aid greatly improves drying by allowing water to drain from the dishes
after the nal rinse. Rinse aid also keeps water from forming droplets that can
dry as spots or streaks.
Detergent
The United States and Canada have passed restrictions limiting the amount
of phosphorus (phosphates) in household dishwasher detergents to reduce
the impact of detergents on our environment. Major manufacturers have
reformulated their dishwasher detergent. With these recent changes it is
recommended to use tablets and packs for convenience and improved
performance.
Filtration System
Your dishwasher has the latest technology in dishwasher ltration. This triple
ltration system minimizes sound and optimizes water and energy conservation
while providing optimal cleaning performance. We suggest you clean both your
upper and lower lters and rinse under running water according to the chart in
the Filtration System section. Maintenance of your lters regularly will sustain
peak cleaning performance.

Start-Up/Quick Reference
Clean EQ Wash System removable lters to maintain
peak performance
Cleaning the lters periodically
helps to keep the dishwasher
working at peak performance. The
lters can be found at the bottom
center of your dishwasher.
See “Filtration System” section
for information on removing and
maintaining the lters.
Drying – Rinse aid is essential
You must use a drying agent such
as a rinse aid for good drying
performance. Rinse aid along with
the Heat Dry and Extended Heat
Dry option will provide best drying
and avoid excessive moisture in
dishwasher interior.
Extended Heat Dry
For best drying use the Extended
Heated Dry option.
Express Wash – When you need fast results
Efcient dishwashers run longer
to save water and energy, just
as driving a car slower saves on
gas. When you need fast results,
the Express Wash will clean your
dishes using slightly more water and
energy. Select the Heat Dry option
to include automatic drying (adds
approximately 38 to 45 minutes to
the Express Wash cycle).
ProWash™ cycle for optimal cleaning
The most advanced and versatile
cycle. ProWash™ cycle senses the
soil amount and toughness of soil to
adjust the cycle for optimal cleaning
using only the amount of water and
energy needed. The ProWash™ and
Tough cycles are recommended
for tough soil. No need to pre-rinse
dishes; just scrape leftover food into
the trash or disposal and load.
Press Start/RESUME every time you add a dish
IMPORTANT: If anyone opens the
door (such as, to add a dish, even
during the Delay hours), the Start/
RESUME button must be pressed
each time. Push door rmly closed
within 4 seconds of pressing
Start/RESUME. If the door is not
closed within 4 seconds, the Start/
RESUME button LED will ash, an
audible tone will be heard, and the
cycle will not start.
Proper Detergent Dosing
We recommend quality tablets and packs for convenience and
improved performance.
When using other forms of detergent, it is possible to use
too much. This can lead to etching of your dishes. See “Add
Detergent” in the Dishwasher Use section, to determine the
amount of detergent needed based on soil level and water
hardness.
Quick Steps
Remove bulk food and load dishwasher.
Scrape off excess food
into garbage or food
disposer.
Load dishes so that water
spray will reach every
surface.
Add detergent and rinse aid.
Select a cycle and options (varies by model).
Start the dishwasher.
To start and resume a cycle, press
Start/RESUME and close the door
within 4 seconds. If the door is not
closed within 4 seconds, the Start/
RESUME LED will ash, an audible
tone will sound, and the cycle will
not start.
Unload dishwasher and clean
the lter.
See “Recommended Time
Interval to Clean Your
Filter” in the “Filtration
System” section for the
recommended cleaning
schedule.

Dishwasher Use
STEP 1
Prepare and Load the Dishwasher
IMPORTANT: Remove leftover food, bones, toothpicks, and
other hard items from the dishes. Remove labels from containers
before washing.
Check that nothing blocks the upper or lower spray arm.
Items in rack can block
the spray arms.
Check that when the dishwasher door is closed, no items are
blocking the detergent dispenser.
Items should be loaded with soiled surfaces facing down
and inward to the spray as shown in the graphics above.
This will improve cleaning and drying results. Angle dirtiest
dish surface downward, allowing space for water to ow up
through rack and between dishes.
Avoid overlapping items, like bowls or plates that may trap
food.
Place plastics, small plates, and glasses in upper rack. Wash
only items marked “dishwasher safe.”
To avoid thumping/clattering noises during operation,
load dishes so they do not touch one another. Make sure
lightweight load items are secured in racks.
When loading silverware, always place sharp items pointing
down. Mix items in each section of the basket with some
pointing up and some down to avoid nesting. Spray cannot
reach nested items.
Use the slots in the covers and suggested loading patterns
to keep your silverware separated for optimum wash.
STEP 2
Add Detergent
Premeasured Detergents
High-quality premeasured
tablets and packs are
recommended for improved
performance. Quality tablets
and packs have been proven
better than powder, liquid, or gel
detergents at reducing lming on
dishes. Using tablets and packs
over time will start to reduce or
eliminate white lm. They are
suitable for all hardness and soil
levels. Also, by using a
rinse aid, you can minimize repeat buildup of white lm (not all
packs and tablets contain rinse aid). Always place premeasured
detergents in main compartment and close the lid.
NOTE: Follow instructions on the package when using other
dishwasher detergent types or use the chart below for standard
powdered detergents.
Use automatic dishwasher detergent only. Add detergent just
before starting a cycle.
Fresh automatic dishwasher detergent results in better
cleaning. Store tightly closed detergent container in a cool
dry place.
Place selected detergent in
the dispenser. Place nger, as
shown, and slide lid closed.
Press rmly until it clicks.
Push OPEN, as shown, and
the lid will slide open.
*The prewash compartment is on top of the sliding door of the
dispenser.
**A full main wash compartment contains 2 Tbsp (30 mL).

IMPORTANT: Extremely hard water mineral deposits (15 grains
per U.S. gallon or more) can cause damage to your dishwasher
and make it difcult to achieve good results. A water softener is
recommended to avoid damage and achieve good results.
NOTE: Follow instructions on the package when using other
dishwasher detergent types.
STEP 3
Add Rinse Aid
IMPORTANT: Your dishwasher is designed to use rinse aid.
The use of rinse aid greatly improves drying by allowing water to
drain from the dishes after the nal rinse. Rinse aid also keeps
water from forming droplets that can dry as spots or streaks.
Filling the dispenser
The dispenser holds 5 oz (150 mL) of rinse
aid. Under most conditions, this will last
one to three months.
NOTE: Indicator reads correct ll level
when door is completely opened.
1. To add rinse aid, open the
rinse dispenser lid by gently
pushing in the center of the lid
with your thumb and pulling
up on the edge.
2. Pour rinse aid into the
opening until the dispenser
is full. Do not overll.
3. Clean up any spilled rinse aid.
Spilled rinse aid can create excessive suds.
4. Close the dispenser by pushing down gently on the lid.
Rinse Aid Setting
Your rinse aid dispenser is adjustable. For most
water conditions, the factory setting will give
good results. If you have hard water and notice
calcium buildup on your dishware, you may want
to try a higher setting. If you notice foam in your
dishwasher, use a lower setting.
To adjust the setting:
Turn the arrow adjuster to a higher number
to increase the amount of rinse aid.
If you change the setting only change it one number at a time
and run a few cycles before changing it again. Too much rinse
aid can reduce cleaning performance and too little may leave
spots or rings.

You can customize the cycles by selecting the options desired
and pressing the Start/RESUME keypad.
STEP 5
Start or Resume a Cycle
If needed, run hot water at the sink nearest your dishwasher
until the water is hot. Turn off water.
For best dish washing results, water should be 120ºF (49ºC)
as it enters the dishwasher.
Select the wash cycle and options desired.
To repeat the same cycle and options used
previously, press the Start/RESUME
keypad twice. Within 4 seconds of pressing
Start/RESUME, you must rmly push the
door closed. If the door is not closed within
4 seconds, the Start/RESUME LED will ash
an audible tone will be heard, and the cycle
will not start.
You can add an item at the beginning of the cycle. Open
the door slowly and add the item. Press the Start/RESUME
keypad and close the door rmly within 4 seconds. If the
door has been open more than 4 seconds, the LED will ash
a tone will sound and the dishwasher will not resume unless
you press Start/RESUME again.
IMPORTANT: If the door has been opened for more than a few
seconds after the cycle has started (even during the Delay time),
the Start/RESUME button must be pressed again or the cycle
will not resume.

Cycle and Option Descriptions
Estimated cycle times may increase or decrease, depending on water temperature, soil conditions, dish load size, and options
selected. You can customize your cycle by selecting an option.
See option selections. If you change your mind, press the option again to turn off the option or select a different option. You can
change an option any time before the selected option begins. At each stage of the wash cycle, you may hear noises that you are not
used to hearing in your previous dishwasher. Each cycle will provide a series of pauses and water sprays throughout the wash cycle.
This is normal and will provide optimal cleaning performance.
CYCLE SELECTIONS
IMPORTANT: The sensor in your dishwasher monitors the soil level. Cycle time and/or water usage can vary as the sensor adjusts
the cycle for the best wash performance. If the incoming water is less than the recommended temperature or food soils are heavy, the
cycle will automatically compensate by adding time, heat, and water as needed.

Filtration System
Your dishwasher has the latest technology in dishwasher ltration. This ltration system minimizes sound and optimizes water and
energy conservation while providing superior cleaning.
The lter system consists of two parts, an upper lter assembly
and a lower lter.
IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to dishwasher, do not operate your dishwasher
without lters properly installed. Be sure lower lter is securely in place and
upper lter assembly is locked into place. If upper assembly turns freely, it is not
locked into place.
The lters may need to be cleaned when:
Visible objects or soils are on the upper lter assembly.
Dishes feel gritty to the touch.
It is very easy to remove and maintain the lters. The chart below shows the recommended cleaning frequency.

4–7 Every 4 months Once per year Once per year
1–3 Twice per year Once per year Once per year
*Scrape excess food into the trash or food disposer prior to loading the dishwasher. We recommend this practice because it will
conserve the water and energy that you would have used to prepare your dishes. This will also save you time and effort.
Very Hard Water
If you have hard water (above 15 grains), clean your lter at least
once per month. Buildup of white residue on your dishwasher
indicates hard water. For tips on removing spots and stains, see
the “Troubleshooting” section.
Filter Removal Instructions
1. Turn the upper lter assembly a quarter turn
counterclockwise and lift out.
2. Separate the upper lter assembly by gently pulling apart.
3. Clean the lters as shown.
Cleaning Instructions
IMPORTANT: Do not use wire brushes, scouring pads, etc., as
they may damage the lters.
Rinse lter under running water until most soils are removed. If
you have hard-to-remove soils or calcium deposits from hard
water, a soft brush may be required.
Filter Reinstallation Instructions
1. Noting the previous illustrations, place the lower lter under
the locating tabs in the bottom of the dishwasher, so the
round opening for the upper lter assembly lines up with the
round opening in the bottom of the tub.
2. Insert the upper lter assembly into the circular opening in
the lower lter.
3. Slowly rotate the lter clockwise until it drops into place.
Continue to rotate until the lter is locked into place. If the
lter is not fully seated (still turns freely), continue to turn the
lter clockwise until it drops and locks into place.
NOTE: The upper lter assembly arrow does not have to
align with the arrow in the lower lter as long as the lter is
locked.
IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to dishwasher, do not operate
your dishwasher without the lters properly installed. Be sure
the lower lter is securely in place and the upper lter assembly
is locked into place. If the upper lter assembly turns freely, it is
not locked into place.

Dishwasher Care
Cleaning the Exterior
Clean the exterior of dishwasher with a soft, damp cloth and
mild detergent. If your dishwasher has a stainless steel exterior,
it has a coating that is resistant to ngerprints. Avoid using
abrasive cleaning products on the exterior of the dishwasher.
Cleaning and Maintaining the Interior
Many detergents may leave white spots or a white residue on
dishware and on the interior of the dishwasher. Over time this
residue can become unsightly and could affect dishwasher
performance. Use of a dishwasher cleaning product such as
affresh
®
† Dishwasher Cleaner can help to remove the residue.
Monthly use of affresh
®
† Dishwasher Cleaner is recommended
to help maintain the dishwasher.
To Use:
1. If cleaning without dishes, place one tablet in the detergent
dispenser. Do not add detergent (If signicant buildup is
noticeable, a second tablet can be placed in the bottom of
the dishwasher.)
2. If cleaning with dishes, place one tablet in the bottom of the
dishwasher. Place detergent in the dispenser.
3. Run a Normal wash cycle.
Another method to remove white residue is to use a vinegar
rinse. However, vinegar is an acid and using it too often could
damage your dishwasher.
Place (do not pour), 2 cups (500 mL) white vinegar in a glass
or dishwasher-safe measuring cup on the bottom rack. Run
the dishwasher through a complete washing cycle using an
air-dry or an energy-saving dry option. Do not use detergent.
Vinegar will mix with the wash water.
NOTE: KitchenAid
®
recommends the use of high-quality,
premeasured detergent tablets or packs and the use of rinse aid
for dishwasher cleaning and daily care.
To Reduce Risk of Property Damage During Vacation
or Extended Time Without Use
When you will not be using the dishwasher during the
summer months, turn off the water and power supply to the
dishwasher.
Make sure the water supply lines are protected against
freezing conditions. Ice formations in the supply line
scan increase water pressure and cause damage to your
dishwasher or home.
Damage from freezing is not covered by the warranty.
When storing your dishwasher in the winter, avoid water
damage by having your dishwasher winterized by authorized
service personnel.
If you have a drain air gap,
check and clean it if the
dishwasher isn’t draining well.

PROBLEM SOLUTION
DISHWASHER DOES NOT RUN NOTE: It is normal for the dishwasher to repeatedly pause several times during a cycle.
If the Start/RESUME light is blinking, press Start/RESUME and close the door within 4
seconds.
Be sure the door is closed and latched.
Check that there is not an interference between large casserole dishes and the wash
system at the back of the dishwasher.
Check to see if any items are protruding through the bottom or back of the rack. Also
check to see if tall items are hitting the upper rack or spray arm. Adjust loading as
necessary to ensure door is closed and latched.
Press the Start/RESUME or Cancel keypads or open and close the door before selecting
your cycle/option. Controls must be awakened after a period of inactivity.
Be sure the Control/Lock feature is not on. If the control lock indicator is lit, press and
hold Sani Rince for 3 seconds. The Control Lock LED will turn off and you can then
operate the controls.
Be sure you have selected a cycle. See “Cycle and Option Descriptions” section.
Be sure there is power to the dishwasher. A circuit breaker or fuse may have tripped.
If lights other than Start/RESUME blink and the unit will not run, you will need to call for
service. If the numeric display shows a code “F2E2” you will need to call for service.
DETERGENT REMAINS IN THE
DISPENSER OR TABLET IS ON
BOTTOM OF TUB
Check for dishware, such as cookie sheets, cutting boards, or large containers, etc., that
may be blocking the detergent dispenser from opening properly.
Be sure your detergent is fresh and lump-free.
Be sure the cycle has completed (the Clean light is on). If it has not completed, you will
need to resume the cycle by closing the door and pressing Start/RESUME.
CYCLE RUNS TOO LONG NOTES:
To use less water and reduce energy consumption, you will encounter cycles that
typically run for up to 3 hours.
A water heater setting of 120°F (49°C) is best the dishwasher will delay longer while
heating cooler water.
Some options will add time to the cycle. See the “Cycle and Option Descriptions”
section. The Heat Dry or Extended Heat Dry option adds approximately 45 minutes.
Try the Express Wash cycle.
Run the hot water at a faucet close to the dishwasher before starting the cycle.
DISHWASHER NOT DRYING NOTE: Plastic and items with nonstick surfaces are difcult to dry because they have a
porous surface which tends to collect water droplets. Towel drying may be necessary.
Use of rinse aid along with the Heat Dry or Extended Heat Dry option is needed for proper
drying.
Proper loading of items can affect drying. (See specic loading instructions within this
guide). Glasses and cups with concave bottoms hold water. This water may spill onto
other items when unloading.
Unload the bottom rack rst.
Locate these items on the more slanted side of the rack for improved results.
WILL NOT FILL Be sure the water to the dishwasher is turned on.
Check that the overll protection oat is free from obstructions. See the “Parts and
Features” section.
Check for suds in the dishwasher. If foam or suds are detected, the dishwasher may not
operate properly or may not ll with water. See “Blinking Lights” in the “Troubleshooting”
section.
15
PROBLEM SOLUTION
WATER REMAINS IN THE
TUB/WILL NOT DRAIN
Be sure the cycle has completed (the Clean indicator is on). If it has not, you will need to
resume the cycle by pressing Start/RESUME and closing the door within 4 seconds.
If dishwasher is connected to a food waste disposer, be sure the knockout plug has been
removed from the disposer inlet.
Check for kinks in the drain hose.
Check for food obstructions in the drain or disposer.
Check your house fuse or circuit breaker.
HARD WATER (WHITE RESIDUE
ON DISHWASHER INTERIOR OR
GLASSWARE)
NOTE: Extremely hard water mineral deposits can cause damage to your dishwasher and
make it difcult to achieve good cleaning. A water softener is strongly recommended if your
hardness is 15 grains or more. If a water softener is not installed, the following steps may
help:
Use a commercial cleaner designed for dishwashers once per month.
Clean the upper and lower lters at least once per month. See “Cleaning Instructions” in the
“Filtration System” section.
Always use a rinse aid. Always use a high-quality, fresh detergent.
Use a detergent booster/water softener additive designed for dishwashers.
ODORS NOTE: If the dishwasher is not used daily, you can run a rinse cycle with the partial load
until a full load is ready to run.
Run a vinegar rinse through the dishwasher by putting 2 cups (500 mL) of white vinegar in
an upright glass measuring cup in the lower rack. Run a Normal cycle with the Heat Dry or
ProDry™ option turned off. Do not use detergent.
The dishwasher may not be draining properly, see “Water Remains In The Tub/Will Not
Drain” in the “Troubleshooting” section.
NOISY Surging sounds can occur periodically throughout the cycle while the dishwasher is
draining.
Normal water valve hissing may be heard periodically.
A normal snap sound may be heard when the detergent dispenser opens during the cycle
and when the door is opened at the end of the cycle.
Improper installation will affect noise levels.
Be sure the lters are properly installed.
A thumping sound may be heard if items extend beyond the racks and interfere with the
wash arms. Readjust the dishware and resume the cycle.
FOOD SOILS REMAIN ON DISHES Be sure the dishwasher is loaded correctly. Improper loading can greatly decrease the
washing performance. See the “Dishwasher Use” section.
Check lter to ensure it is properly installed. Clean it if needed. See “Cleaning Instructions”
in the “Filtration System” section for details.
Select the proper cycle and option for the type of soils. The Tough cycle with the Hi-Temp
Wash option can be used for tougher loads.
Be sure the incoming water temperature is at least 120°F (49°C). Use the proper amount
of fresh detergent. More detergent is needed for heavier soiled loads and hard water
conditions.
Scrape food from dishes prior to loading (do not prerinse).
DISHES DIRTY/SUDS IN
DISHWASHER/CYCLE NOT
COMPLETE
If foam or suds are detected by the dishwasher sensing system, the dishwasher may not
operate properly or may not ll with water.
Suds can come from:
Using the incorrect type of detergent, such as dish detergent for hand washing dishes,
laundry detergent, or hand soap.
Not replacing the rinse aid dispenser cap after lling (or relling) the rinse aid.
Using an excessive amount of dishwasher detergent.
Inadequately rinsing off detergent from dishes washed by hand before loading them into
the dishwasher.
Call for service.
If no water was present in the machine at any time during a heated wash cycle, the cycle
will end and the Clean indicator will not come on. See “Will Not Fill” in the “Troubleshooting”
section.
DID NOT SANITIZE If the Sanitized light is blinking, the load is NOT sanitized. The cycle was interrupted in the
nal rinse or the temperature for your water heater is set too low. Set your water heater to
120ºF (49°C).
DAMAGE TO DISHWARE Improper loading can cause dishes to become chipped or damaged. (See specic loading
instructions within this guide.)
16
PROBLEM SOLUTION
BLINKING LIGHTS Blinking indicators will occur when the cycle is paused or when the cycle has been
interrupted by opening the door. If the Start/Resume light is blinking, press the
Start/RESUME keypad and close the door within 4 seconds.
See “Start or RESUME a Cycle” in the “Dishwasher Use” section.
If the Clean light or any other lights are blinking and the dishwasher will not run, call for
service.
CLOUDY OR SPOTTED
DISHWARE (AND HARD WATER
SOLUTION)
Add or adjust the amount of liquid rinse aid for better drying and to reduce spotting. See the
“Detergent and Rinse Aid” section.
Use the correct amount of detergent.
Conrm that the cloudiness is removable by soaking the item in white vinegar for 5 minutes.
If the cloudiness disappears, it is due to hard water. Adjust the amount of detergent and
rinse aid. See “Hard Water (White Residue on Dishwasher Interior or Glassware)” in the
“Troubleshooting” section. If it does not come clear, it is due to etching (see below). Be sure
the incoming water temperature is set at 120°F (49°C).
Try using the Hi Temp Wash and Sani Rinse options.
To remove spotting, run a vinegar rinse through the dishwasher.
Wash and rinse the affected dishware and load into dishwasher. Remove all silverware
and metal items. Put 2 cups (500 mL) of white vinegar in a glass measuring cup in the
lower rack. Run a Normal cycle with the Heat Dry option turned off. No detergent is
needed.
ETCHING (PERMANENT
CLOUDINESS)
This is an erosion of the surface of the glassware and can be caused by a combination of
water that is too hot, using too much detergent with soft water, or pre-washing. Detergent
needs food soil to act upon. If etching has occurred, the glassware is permanently damaged.
To avoid further etching, adjust the detergent amount to match the water hardness, stop
pre-washing, and use water heating options only when incoming water temperature is below
120°F (49°C).
LEAKING WATER Be sure dishwasher has been installed properly and is level. Suds can cause the dishwasher
to overow. Measure the detergent accurately and use only detergents designed for use in a
dishwasher. Less detergent is needed in soft water. Try another brand of detergent if sudsing
continues.
To avoid rinse aid leaking from the dispenser, be sure the lid is securely attached and avoid
overlling.
TUB IS DISCOLORED High iron content in the water can discolor the tub.
Tomato-based foods can discolor the tub or dishware. Large amounts of tomato-based
foods should be removed from the dishes before loading.
A citrus-based cleaner can be used to clean.

IMPORTANTES INSTRUCTIONS DE SÉCURITÉ
AVERTISSEMENT :
Lors de l’utilisation de ce lave-vaisselle, il convient d’observer certaines précautions fondamentales,
dont :
CONSERVER CES INSTRUCTIONS
Lire toutes les instructions avant d’utiliser le lave-vaisselle.
Utiliser le lave-vaisselle uniquement pour laver de la vaisselle.
Utiliser seulement des détergents et agents de rinçage
recommandés pour les lave-vaisselle. Garder ces produits
hors de la portée des enfants.
Lors du chargement d’articles à laver :
1) Placer les articles coupants pour qu’ils ne risquent pas
d’endommager le joint de la porte; et
2) Placer les couteaux poignée vers le haut pour réduire
les risques de blessure.
Ne pas laver d’articles en plastique, sauf s’il est indiqué
“lavable au lave-vaisselle” ou une mention équivalente. Pour
les articles en plastique qui ne sont pas ainsi identifiés,
vérifier les recommandations du fabricant.
Ne pas toucher les éléments chauffants pendant ou
immédiatement après l’utilisation.
Ne pas mettre en marche le lave-vaisselle si un panneau
de l’enceinte n’est pas correctement installé.
Ne pas effectuer d’intervention non autorisée sur les
commandes.
Ne pas abuser de, s’asseoir sur ou se mettre debout sur la
porte, le couvercle ou les paniers à vaisselle du lave-vais-
selle.
Pour réduire les risques de blessure, ne pas laisser les
enfants jouer dans ou près du lave-vaisselle.
Dans certaines conditions, un système d’eau chaude qui
n’a pas été utilisé depuis 2 semaines ou plus peut produire
de l’hydrogène. L’HYDROGÈNE EST UN GAZ EXPLOSIF. Si
le système d’eau chaude est resté inutilisé pendant une
telle période, ouvrir tous les robinets d’eau chaude et laisser
l’eau s’en écouler pendant plusieurs minutes avant d’utiliser
le lave-vaisselle. Ceci libérera toute accumulation
d’hydrogène. Le gaz est inflammable : ne pas fumer ou
utiliser une flamme nue durant cette période.
Enlever la porte ou le couvercle du compartiment de
lavage lorsqu’on cesse d’utiliser un vieux lave-vaisselle
ou qu’on le jette.
INSTRUCTIONS DE LIAISON À LA TERRE
CONSERVER CES INSTRUCTIONS
Pour un lave-vaisselle avec liaison à la terre et cordon
d’alimentation :
Ce lave-vaisselle doit être relié à la terre En cas d’anomalie
de fonctionnement ou de panne, la liaison à la terre réduira
le risque de décharge électrique en offrant au courant
électrique un itinéraire d’évacuation de moindre résistance.
Le lave-vaisselle est doté d’un cordon électrique
comportant un conducteur de mise à la terre d’équipement
et une fiche de branchement de liaison à la terre. La fiche
doit être branchée à une prise de courant appropriée, bien
installée et reliée à la terre conformément à tous les codes
et règlements locaux.
AVERTISSEMENT : Un raccordement inapproprié du
conducteur de mise à la terre de l’équipement peut causer
un risque de décharge électrique.
Vérifier avec un électricien ou un représentant de service
qualifié en cas de doute quant à la qualité de la liaison à la
terre du lave-vaisselle. Ne pas modifier la fiche fournie
avec ce lave-vaisselle; si elle ne correspond pas à la prise
de sortie, faire installer une prise appropriée par un
électricien qualifié.
Pour un lave-vaisselle branché en permanence :
Le lave-vaisselle doit être raccordé à un système de
câblage permanent en métal relié à la terre; si ce n’est pas
le cas, un conducteur de mise à la terre d’équipement doit
être en fonction avec les conducteurs de circuit et
raccordés à la borne de mise à la terre d’équipement ou la
borne sur le lave-vaisselle.
Risque de basculement
Ne pas utiliser le lave-vaisselle avant qu’il ne soit complètement installé.
Ne pas appuyer sur la porte ouverte.
Le non-respect de cette instruction peut causer des blessures ou des coupures graves.

Quoi de neuf dans votre lave-vaisselle
Énergie
Félicitations pour l’achat de ce lave-vaisselle éconergique à faible consommation d’eau! Pour nettoyer
les articles, ce lave-vaisselle asperge la vaisselle d’eau puis fait une pause pour permettre au détergent
d’imprégner et de dissoudre les saletés. Les périodes de trempage et de pause prolongent la durée des
programmes pour un nettoyage exceptionnel.
Ce lave-vaisselle comporte un capteur optique d’eau. Le capteur optique d’eau détermine le niveau de
consommation d’eau et d’énergie optimal pour un meilleur nettoyage. Les lave-vaisselle éconergiques
fonctionnent plus longtemps pour économiser de l’eau et de l’énergie, tout comme une vitesse de conduite
réduite permet d’économiser du carburant. Le calibrage du capteur optique entraînera l’allongement du
premier programme qui l’utilise.
Performance
Agent de rinçage
Utiliser un agent de rinçage pour une performance de lavage et de
séchage optimale. An d’améliorer la performance de séchage et de limiter
l’accumulation de dépôts d’eau dure, ce lave-vaisselle est spéciquement
conçu pour être utilisé avec un agent de rinçage. L’utilisation d’agents de
rinçage améliore nettement le séchage en permettant à l’eau de s’écouler de
la vaisselle après le rinçage nal. Un agent de rinçage empêche aussi l’eau
de former des gouttelettes qui peuvent laisser des taches ou des coulées en
séchant.
Détergent
Les États-Unis et le Canada ont voté des restrictions limitant la quantité de
phosphore (phosphates) présent dans les détergents domestiques pour lave-
vaisselle et réduire l’impact des détergents sur notre environnement. Les plus
gros fabricants ont reformulé leurs détergents pour lave-vaisselle. En raison
de ces récents changements, il est recommandé d’utiliser des pastilles et des
sachets pour une plus grande simplicité d’utilisation et pour une meilleure
performance.
Système de ltration
Ce lave-vaisselle est équipé de la plus récente technologie en matière de
ltration. Ce système de triple ltration minimise le niveau sonore et optimise le
niveau de consommation d’eau et d’énergie tout en permettant un nettoyage
optimal. Nous vous suggérons de nettoyer le ltre supérieur et inférieur et de
rincer le système sous l’eau du robinet en suivant les consignes du tableau de
la section Système de ltration. Pour une performance de nettoyage optimale,
entretenir régulièrement les ltres.
