happen if the instructions are not followed.

Your safety and the safety of others are 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 potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.

All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word “DANGER” or “WARNING.”

These words mean:

follow instructions.

DANGER

WARNING

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 efﬁcient 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. Efﬁcient dishwashers

run longer to save water and energy, just as driving a car slower saves on gas. The ﬁrst 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 speciﬁcally designed to be used with rinse aid

for improved drying performance and controlling buildup of hard

water deposits. Energy efﬁcient dishwashers use less water and

energy, so they depend on the water “sheeting” action of rinse

aid for total optimal performance.

SLIDE

Detergent

The United States and Canada have passed regulations limiting

the amount of phosphorus (phosphates) in the household

dishwasher detergents. Major manufacturers have reformulated

their dishwasher detergent for this change in detergents as

another step in eco-conscious awareness. With these changes,

we recommend quality tablets and packs for convenience and

improved performance.

SLIDE

Filtration System

Your dishwasher has the latest technology in dishwasher

ﬁltration. This triple ﬁltration system minimizes sound and

optimizes water and energy conservation while providing optimal

cleaning performance. Maintenance of your ﬁlters regularly will

sustain peak cleaning performance. We suggest you clean both

your upper and lower ﬁlters and rinse under running water at

least once a month.

Quick Steps

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.

Upper rack Lower rack

■ 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.

■ Tough soiled items should be loaded with soiled surfaces

facing down and inward to the spray. This will improve

cleaning and drying results.

■ Avoid overlapping items like bowls or plates that may

trap food.

■ Place plastics, small plates, and glasses in the upper rack.

Wash only plastic 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 the 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 slots in the covers and suggested loading patterns

to keep your silverware separated for optimum wash.

PUSH

NOTE: The AnyWare™ silverware basket will ﬁt on the inner door,

on the front of the lower rack, and inside the lower rack.

STEP 2

Add Detergent

Premeasured Detergents

SLIDE

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

ﬁlming on dishes. Using tablets

and packs over time will start to

reduce or eliminate white ﬁlm.

They are suitable for all hardness

and soil levels. Also, by using a

rinse aid, you can minimize repeat buildup of white ﬁlm (not all

packs and tablets contain rinse aid). Always place premeasured

detergents in main compartment and slide lid closed.

NOTE: Follow instructions on the package when using other

dishwasher detergent types.

■ 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.

To close lid To open lid

SLIDE

Place selected detergent in

the dispenser. Place ﬁnger, as

shown, and slide lid closed.

Press ﬁrmly until it clicks.

Push OPEN, as shown,

IMPORTANT: Extremely hard water mineral deposits (15 grains

per U.S. gallon or more) can cause damage to your dishwasher

and make it difﬁcult 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

Rinse Aid

SLIDE

IMPORTANT: Your dishwasher is designed to use rinse aid.

The use of rinse aids greatly improves drying by allowing water

to drain from the dishes after the ﬁnal rinse. Rinse aid also keeps

water from forming droplets that can dry as spots or streaks.

Filling the dispenser

Full

The dispenser holds 5 oz (150 mL) of rinse

aid. Under most conditions, this will last

1 to 3 months.

NOTE: Indicator reads correct ﬁll level

when door is completely opened.

Pre

Wash

OPEN

SLIDE

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 overﬁll.

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.

STEP 4

Select a Cycle (varies by model)

Efﬁcient dishwashers run longer to save water and energy, just

as driving a car slower saves gas. Cycle times may increase or

decrease, depending on selections. Estimated cycle times after

calibration are listed in the “Cycle and Option Descriptions”

chart in the following section. Select the desired cycle by

pressing the Cycles keypad. Each time you press the Cycles

keypad, it will advance to the next available cycle.

Select Options (varies by model)

See the “Cycle and Option Descriptions” chart in the

following section.

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 dishwashing 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 ﬁrmly push the

door closed. If the door is not closed within

4 seconds, the Start/Resume LED will ﬂash,

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 ﬁrmly within 4 seconds. If the door

has been open more than 4 seconds, the LED will ﬂash, a

tone will sound, and the dishwasher will not resume unless

you press Start/Resume again.

IMPORTANT: If the door has been opened after starting a cycle

(even during the Delay Hours option), Start/Resume must be

pressed again.

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 anytime 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

This information covers several different models. Your dishwasher may not have all of the cycles and options described.

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 latest technology in dishwasher ﬁltration. This ﬁltration system minimizes sound and optimizes water and energy

conservation while providing superior cleaning.

The ﬁlter system consists of 2 parts an upper ﬁlter assembly and a lower ﬁlter.

IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to dishwasher, do not operate your dishwasher

without ﬁlters properly installed. Be sure lower ﬁlter is securely in place and upper

ﬁlter assembly is locked into place. If upper assembly turns freely, it is not locked

into place.

The ﬁlters may need to be cleaned when:

■ Visible objects or soils are on the upper ﬁlter assembly.

■ Dishes feel gritty to the touch.

Lower ﬁlter

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,

a stainless steel cleaner, such as affresh

®†

Stainless Steel Cleaner

is recommended. 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 signiﬁcant 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: Whirlpool recommends the use of high-quality,

premeasured detergent tablets or packs and the use of rinse

aid for dishwasher cleaning and daily care.

f you have a drain air gap,

check and clean it if the

dishwasher isn’t draining well.

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 lines

can 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.

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 with 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 START/RESUME or CANCEL, 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

RINSE 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 option adds approximately 45 minutes.

Try the 1-Hour 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 difﬁcult 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 option is needed for proper drying.

Proper loading of items can affect drying. (See speciﬁc 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 ﬁrst.

■ 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 overﬁll protection ﬂoat 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 ﬁll with water. See “Blinking Lights” in the “Troubleshooting” section.

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 difﬁcult 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 ﬁlters 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 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 ﬁlters 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 ﬁlter 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 Target Clean™ 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 ﬁll 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 ﬁlling (or reﬁlling) the rinse aid.

■ Using an excessive amount of dishwasher detergent.

■ Inadequate 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 ﬁnal 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 speciﬁc loading

instructions within this guide.)

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.

Conﬁrm 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, from using too much detergent with soft water, or by 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 overﬂow. 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 overﬁlling.

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.

ADVERTENCIA

PELIGRO

Este es el símbolo de alerta de seguridad.

Este símbolo le llama la atención sobre peligros potenciales que pueden ocasionar la muerte o una lesión a

usted y a los demás.

Todos los mensajes de seguridad irán a continuación del símbolo de advertencia de seguridad y de la palabra

“PELIGRO” o “ADVERTENCIA”. Estas palabras significan:

INSTRUCCIONES IMPORTANTES DE SEGURIDAD

ADVERTENCIA: Cuando use la lavavajillas siga precauciones básicas, incluyendo las siguientes:

GUARDE ESTAS INSTRUCCIONES

■ Lea todas las instrucciones antes de usar la lavavajillas.

■ Use la lavavajillas únicamente para las funciones que fue

diseñada.

■

Use únicamente detergentes o agentes de enjuague

recomendados para ser usados en las lavavajillas y

manténgalos fuera del alcance de los niños.

■ Al introducir los artículos para lavar:

1) Coloque los artículos puntiagudos de manera que no

dañen el sello de la puerta

2) Introduzca los cuchillos filosos con los mangos hacia

arriba para reducir el riesgo de cortaduras.

■ No lave artículos de plástico que no lleven la indicación

“lavables en la lavavajillas” u otra similar. Lea las

recomendaciones del fabricante para los artículos de

plástico que no lleven tal indicación.

■ No toque el elemento de calefacción durante o

inmediatamente después de usar la lavavajillas.

■ No haga funcionar la lavavajillas a menos que todos los

paneles estén colocados debidamente en su lugar.

■ No juegue con los controles.

■ No abuse, ni se siente ni se pare sobre la puerta, la tapa o

sobre las canastas de la lavavajillas.

■ Para reducir el riesgo de lesión, no permita que los niños

jueguen dentro ni sobre la lavavajillas.

■ Bajo ciertas condiciones, un sistema de agua caliente que

no ha sido usado por dos semanas o más puede producir

gas hidrógeno. EL GAS HIDRÓGENO ES EXPLOSIVO. Si

el sistema de agua caliente no ha sido usado por ese

período, abra todas las llaves de agua caliente y deje que

corra el agua por varios minutos antes de usar la

lavavajillas. Esto permitirá que los gases acumulados

escapen. Debido a que el gas es inflamable, no fume ni

encienda ninguna llama abierta durante este tiempo.

■ Quite la puerta o la tapa del compartimiento de lavado

cuando remueva o deje de usar para siempre una vieja

lavavajillas.

INSTRUCCIONES DE CONEXIÓN A TIERRA

GUARDE ESTAS INSTRUCCIONES

■

Para una lavavajillas con cable eléctrico y conexión a

tierra:

La lavavajillas debe estar conectada a tierra. En caso de

funcionamiento defectuoso o avería, la conexión a tierra

reduce el riesgo de choque eléctrico al establecer una ruta

de menor resistencia para la corriente eléctrica. La

lavavajillas viene equipada con un cable eléctrico que tiene

un conductor para conexión a tierra y un enchufe con

conexión a tierra. El enchufe debe ser conectado a un

contacto apropiado que esté instalado y conectado a tierra

de acuerdo con todos los códigos y ordenanzas locales.

ADVERTENCIA: La conexión inadecuada del

conductor de conexión a tierra puede resultar en riesgo

de choque eléctrico. Pregunte a un electricista

calificado o a un agente de servicio si no está seguro si

la lavavajillas está adecuadamente conectada a tierra.

No modifique el enchufe que viene con la lavavajillas. Si

no cabe en el contacto, pida que un electricista

calificado instale un contacto apropiado.

■

Para lavavajillas con conexión permanente:

Esta lavavajillas debe estar conectada a un sistema de

cableado de metal permanente, conectado a tierra, o se

debe tender un conducto para la conexión a tierra del

equipo con los conductores de circuito y conectado a la

terminal de tierra del equipo o al conductor de

suministro de la lavavajillas.

Peligro de Vuelco

No use la lavavajillas antes de estar completamente instalada.

No se apoye en la puerta abierta.

No seguir estas instrucciones puede ocasionar heridas serias o cortaduras.

ADVERTENCIA

Qué hay de nuevo en su lavavajillas

Energía

¡Felicitaciones por haber comprado la lavavajillas con bajo consumo de agua y energía! Esta

lavavajillas limpia rociando la vajilla con agua y hace pausas para permitir que el detergente remoje

la vajilla y aﬂoje la suciedad de los platos. Para obtener una limpieza excepcional, los ciclos se

hacen más largos debido al remojo y las pausas. Esta lavavajillas tiene un sensor óptico de agua

que se usa para determinar el consumo óptimo de agua y energía para una limpieza ideal. Las

lavavajillas eﬁcientes funcionan más tiempo para ahorrar agua y energía, de la misma manera que

se ahorra gasolina cuando se conduce un automóvil más despacio. El primer ciclo con sensor

durará más tiempo para calibrar el sensor óptico.

Rendimiento

Agente de enjuague

El uso del agente de enjuague hará óptimo el rendimiento

del lavado y secado. Esta lavavajillas ha sido diseñada

especíﬁcamente para el uso con agente de enjuague, para obtener

un mejor rendimiento de secado y controlar la acumulación de

depósitos de agua dura. Las lavavajillas con bajo consumo de

energía usan menos agua y energía, de modo que dependen de

la acción de desplazamiento del agua por obra del agente de

enjuague para asegurar un óptimo rendimiento.

SLIDE

Detergente

Estados Unidos y Canadá han aprobado normas que limitan la

cantidad de fósforo (fosfatos) en los detergentes para lavavajillas

domésticas. Los principales fabricantes han reformulado su

detergente para lavavajillas de acuerdo a este cambio, lo que es

un paso más en la conciencia ecológica. Con estos cambios, se

recomienda usar pastillas y paquetes de calidad por practicidad

y para mejorar el rendimiento.

SLIDE

Sistema de ﬁltración

Su lavavajillas cuenta con lo último en tecnología de ﬁltración para

lavavajillas. El sistema de ﬁltración triple minimiza los sonidos y

optimiza el ahorro de agua y energía mientras proporciona una

limpieza óptima. El mantenimiento periódico de los ﬁltros hará

posible un rendimiento superior de limpieza. Le sugerimos limpiar

el ﬁltro superior e inferior y enjuagarlos bajo agua del grifo por lo

menos una vez al mes.
