It is your responsibility dishwasher: to be sure your l l l l

Is installed by a qualified installer.

Has been installed where it is protected from the elements.

Has been installed on a floor strong enough to support its weight.

Has been properly connected to electricity, water and drain.*

Has been properly electrically grounded.’ l l l

Has had all hang tags and temporary labels removed.

Is not used by children or anyone unable to operate it properly. l

Is properly maintained.

‘See Installation Instructions for complete information.

To reduce the risk of fire, electrical shock, or injury when using your dishwasher, follow basic precautions including the following: l l

Read all instructions before using the dishwasher.

Properly connect to electricity and water. l

DISHWASHER MUST BE ELECTRICALLY

GROUNDED. Read the Installation Instruc- tions for details. l l

Be sure your dishwasher is installed on a level floor that will hold the weight, and in an area suitable for its size and use.

When discarding an old dishwasher, always remove the door to prevent accidental entrapment. l l l l

REMEMBER, use your dishwasher only for the job it was designed to do.

Store dishwasher detergent in a cool, dry place WHERE CHILDREN CAN’T REACH IT

Use ONLY detergents and rinse aids recom- mended for use in a dishwasher.

Locate sharp items and knives so that they are not likely to damage door seal or cut the user. l

DO NOT let children play in or on the dishwasher. l

DO NOT reach into the area below the bottom rack until the heating element has cooled for at least 20 minutes. l

DO NOT wash plastic items unless marked

“Dishwasher Safe” or the equivalent. If not marked, check manufacturer’s recommendations. l l

DO NOT use your dishwasher unless all enclosure panels are properly in place.

DO NOT sit on, stand on or abuse the dishwasher door or dish racks. l l

DO NOT tamper with controls.

If hot water has not been used recently

(usually two weeks or longer), hydro- gen gases may build up in the water heater and the hot water pipes. HYDRO-

GEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. To prevent injury or damage, before using your dishwasher, turn on all hot water faucets and allow water to run for sev- eral minutes. This will allow gases to escape. Do not smoke or use any open flame near the faucet while it is open. l

. Disconnect electrical power to the dishwasher before attempting to service.

DO NOT store or use gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance. The fumes can create a fire hazard or explosion.

Starting your dishwasher

1. Select a drying option. (Use AIR DRY for Rinse

8 Hold Cycle.)

2. Turn Cycle Control Knob clockwise to point to a desired cycle. You will feel a definite stop at each cycle mark. The dishwasher will automati- cally start that cycle.

NOTE: If the door is latched, you will hear cycles start and stop as the knob passes each cycle mark. This is normal and will not hurt the dish- washer If you prefer, you can set cycles with the door unlatched.

To add a dish after starting

1. To be sure the added item is washed and rinsed, make sure the Cycle Control Knob has not passed LIGHT WASH.

2. Loft up on the door latch to unlatch door and stop the cycle.

3. Open the door and add the dish.

4. Close the door. Do not latch it. Wait 30 seconds for arr In the dishwasher to warm up.

This helps reduce the amount of moisture that can come from the vent when restarting the cycle.

5. Press door In to latch It. The dishwasher will star-l where it stopped.

Changing a cycle setting

You can change a setting anytime during any cycle.

1. Lift up on the door latch to unlatch the door and stop the cycle.

2. Turn the Cycle Control Knob clockwise to the cycle you want.

3. Be sure the detergent dispensers are filled properly for the new cycle. When changing dial from LIGHT WASH to NORMAL WASH or

POTS & PANS setting, detergent is released.

Reload covered section of dispenser before starting Normal Wash Cycle or Pots 8 Pans

Cycle.

4. Close and latch the door. The dishwasher will automatically start the new cycle.

*Cycle time includes heated dry time.

What happens in each option

Heat Dry Option

If the Heat Dry Option is selected, air in the dish- washer is heated during the “dry” part of the cycle.

For best results, use a rinse aid.

Air Dry Option

If the Air Dry Option is selected, air in the dish- washer is not heated. Using this option helps save energy, but dishes take longer to dry (overnight) and some water spotting may result. Some items

(such as plastics) may need towel drying. For best results, use a rinse aid.

Cup and glass load

Preparation for loading

It is not necessary to rinse dishes before putting them into the dishwasher. Just remove large pieces and quantities of food and bones. The filtering system helps keep food parti- cles out of the wash water. Small particles are flushed away as water is pumped out. Larger parti- cles are trapped on the filter system screen. Refer to “Dishwasher care 8 cleaning” on page 12 for filter screen cleaning instructions.

Always load dishes so soiled surfaces are reached by spray from rotating spray arm. Water must be able to drain off completely for best drying results. Be careful to separate items so spray can reach all surfaces.

Top rack loading

The top rack is designed for cups, glasses and smaller items.

Cup and glass load l l

Place so open ends face down for cleaning and drarnrng.

Load glasses in top rack only. Bottom rack is not designed for glasses. Damage may occur. l

Place items in the rows between prongs. Plac- ing them over the prongs can lead to breakage. l

Be sure lightweight Items are held firmly in place.

. China, crystal and other delicate items must not touch each other during dishwasher operation.

Damage may occur.

Mixed load l l

Load plastic Hems only in the top rack.

Only plastic items marked “dishwasher safe” are recommended.

Load plastic items so the force of the spray does not move them during the cycle. l

Plastic items can be melted in the bottom rack.

Utensil load l

Small bowls, pans and other utensils can be placed in the top rack.

Mixed load

Proper Loading

Continued

Bottom rack loading

Items with cooked-on or dried-on food should be loaded in the bottom rack, with soiled surfaces facing inward to the spray.

Mixed load l

Make sure pot handles and other items do not stop rotation of the lower spray arm. Spray arm must move freely. l

. Load items so they do not block or cover the spray tower.

Securely place heavily soiled cookware face down in rack. l l

Dish load

Place plates, soup bowls, etc., between prongs and facing inward to the spray.

Do not place items directly over spray tower.

Utensil load l

Load cookie sheets, cake pans and other large items at sides and back. Loading such items in front may keep water spray from reaching detergent dispenser. l l

NOTE:

Do not load glasses, cups or plastic items in the bottom rack.

When lower rack is removed, replace with bumpers in front.

Silverware basket loading

Load the silverware basket while it’s in or out of the bottom rack. The loaded basket should be in the center front (over the spray tower) of the bottom rack.

Load forks and spoons so they don’t nest together. Spray can’t reach nested items.

Mix items in each section of the basket with some pointing up and some down.

Small items-baby bottle caps, jar lids, etc. - can be put in any section.

Personal Injury Hazard

To avoid cuts from sharp items (knives, forks, skewers, etc.), make sure these items are put in point down.

Light Wash Cycle ‘:-7

Use both sections for...

Pots & Pans Cycle

Normal Wash Cycle

What kind of detergent to use

Use automatic dishwasher detergent only.

Other detergents are too mild and much too sudsy to work in the dishwasher.

Different brands of dishwasher detergent have different amounts of phosphorus for softening water. If water is hard and phosphorus content is low (6.0% or less), you may need to use more detergent or use a brand with a higher phosphorus content (8.7% or higher).

Do not add detergent until you are ready to wash. Fresh automatic dishwasher detergent is necessary for best washing results.

Store detergent tightly closed in a cool, dry place.

-

The detergent dispenser

The detergent dispenser has one section with a cover and one without. l l

. Put detergent in both sectrons for cycles with two washes.

Put detergent in the covered section only for cycles with one wash.

Push the cover down until it is latched.

Detergent in the open section falls into the dish- washer when the door is closed. The covered section opens automatically when the main wash starts.

NOTE: It is normal for cover to open partially when dispensing detergent. The cover will open fully when the door is opened.

How much detergent to use l l

The amount of detergent to use depends on the hardness of your water. If too little is used, dishes won’t be clean. However, if too much is used in soft water, glassware will begin to etch.

Find out your water’s hardness by asking your local water department, water softener company or county extension agent.

HARD - Fill 1 or both sections to top line if water hardness is 8 or more grains per gallon, or 136 or more parts per million. l

MEDIUM-Fill 1 or both sections to middle line if water hardness is 5 to 7 grains per gallon, or 85 to 119 parts per mrllron.

SOFT - Fill 1 or both sections to bottom line if water hardness IS 0 to 4 grains per gallon, or 0 to

68 parts per million.

Adding Detergent And Rinse Aid

Continued

Fill

Rinse aid dispenser

A rinse aid helps keep water from forming droplets and drying as spots. Keep the dispenser filled with a rinse aid such as Jet-Dry? A small amount is released automatically during the final rinse of each cycle.

Check the dispenser periodically to see if it needs refilling. An “E” will be visible inside dis- penser when it is empty. Make sure dishwasher door is fully open when refilling. Do not fill past the smallest opening in the lower part of the dispenser.

If you overfill, excess rinse aid can come out. This will not harm the dishwasher. Keep the dispenser fill cap tightly closed.

IO

For Best Results

Hot water is a must

For best cleaning and drying results, water should be at least 140°F (60%).

1. Turn on hot water faucet nearest the dishwasher. Let water run until it is as hot as possible.

2. Hold a candy or meat thermometer

In the stream of hot water to measure the temperature

3. If the temperature is too low, have a qualified person raise the water heater thermostat setting.

Quiet operating tips l

To avoid thumping and clattering noises during operation:

Make sure lightweight load Items are secured

In the rack. l

Make sure pot lids and handles, pizza pans. cookie sheets, etc. do not touch intenor walls. interfere with the spray arm rotation or cover spray tower. l

Load dishes so they don’t touch one another.

NOTE: Keep sink drain plugs inserted during dishwasher operation to prevent noise transfer through drains

Special tips

Remember, use your dishwasher only for the job it was designed to do Some items are not dishwasher safe or may require special care.

Read these special tips for the following items:

Aluminum: Aluminum loses its bright, shiny appearance and darkens in color due to minerals in the water and the alkaltnrty of the dtshwasher detergent. Colored aluminum may fade.

TIPS: If washed in the dishwasher avoid placing directly in front of detergent dispenser where it could be sprinkled with undissolved detergent, causing spotting, pitting, and discoloration. Follow utensil manufacturer’s cleaning instructions.

China: Check manufacturer’s recommendations.

Hand-painted, metal-trimmed, and antique china fade due to high water temperatures and alkaline detergent solution in the dishwasher.

NOTE: Delicate, antique items should not be washed in the dishwasher.

TIPS: Load china carefully. Do not allow pieces to touch each other. Test one piece by washing it daily in the dishwasher for several weeks. Then compare it with the rest of the set to see if colors have changed.

Crystal and decorative glasses: Crystal can break from sudden exposure to high water temper- ature. Metal trim and colorful decoration on glass will fade in time when washed in the dishwasher.

NOTE: Delicate, antique items should not be washed in the dishwasher.

TIPS: Load crystal carefully in top rack only. Be sure to load a few larger items in the bottom rack to reduce amount of force of water spray reaching glassware from lower spray arm. Use the shortest cycle.

Flatware: Salty and acidic food may tarnish silver and stainless flatware if allowed to remain on the utensils. A film may form on sterling silver and silver plate items washed in a dishwasher.

This film is caused by reaction of silver with chlorine in the detergent. Gold flatware is not dishwasher safe. The adhesive used in some flatware with hollow handles IS not heat resistant, causing the handles to come off in the dishwasher.

Wash by hand.

TIPS: Rinse flatware as soon as possible, especially if It is not to be washed right away

Dishwasher detergent may remove antique finishes. Wash by hand. Tarnish and film build-up can be removed with silver polish.

Cast iron utensils: The seasoned finish will be removed In the dishwasher. Rusting will result.

TIPS: Wash by hand. To re-season, coat with unsalted fat and heat in a slow oven for an hour or two.

Plastics: Many plastics will have “Dishwasher

Safe” written on them. Some plastics are heat sensitive and may melt or warp.

TIPS: If in doubt, try one piece. Place in upper rack only. Air Dry Option provides additional protection.

Non-stick finish utensils: Most can be washed in the dlshwasher.

TIPS: Follow manufacturers’ suggestions

Wood: Many wooden items will crack and warp or lose their finish.

TIPS: Do not wash cutting boards, wooden salad bowls or knives with wooden handles in the dishwasher.

Pewter or pewter-like materials: Items may streak, discolor, and pit.

TIPS: To keep pewter at its very best, hand wash with mild detergent.

Energy saving tips

You can help save energy if you:

1. Wash full loads. Running a half-filled dish- washer uses the same amount of electricity and hot water as a fully loaded machine.

2. Use the Light Wash Cycle for moderately soiled loads. It uses less hot water and energy than the Normal Wash Cycle.

3. Air dry dishes when you don’t need a rapid drying cycle. Allow longer drying times

(overnight).

4. Load correctly for best washing results.

Incorrect loading may cause poor washing and the need to rewash all or part of the load.

5. Do not pre-rinse normally soiled dishes.

Select the correct cycle for the load and use the recommended amount of detergent for good washing results without hand nnsing.

6. Use your dishwasher during off-peak hours.

Local utilities recommend this to avoid heavy usage of energy at certain times of day.

Dishwasher care 8 cleaning

Exterior - Regular use of a soft damp cloth or sponge and a mild detergent is all that is neces- sary, in most cases, to keep the outside of your dishwasher nice looking and clean. Interior -

Hard water minerals may cause a white film to build-up on the inside surfaces, especially just be- neath the door area. To clean dishwasher interior:

1. Apply powdered dishwasher detergent to a damp sponge to make a paste.

OR

2. Use liquid automatic dishwasher detergent and clean with damp sponge.

Wear rubber gloves. Do not use any type of cleanser other than automatic dishwasher de- tergent because It may cause foaming or sudsing.

Filter Screen -The filter system requires periodic cleanrng as needed. To clean screen:

1. Unload and slide bottom rack forward. (Remove bottom rack if necessary to reach filter screen.)

2. Remove collected particles from the screen with your fingers or paper towel.

3. Return bottom rack to original position.

Common Dishwashing Problems

Continued

Dishes not washing clean

Water is not hot enough

Water temperature should be at least 140°F

(60°C). Set water heater thermostat to a higher setting. Run water at sink until hot before starting.

Improper loading

Make sure dishes and glassware are loaded so spray reaches all surfaces and items drain properly. Do not overload. Do not nest items.

Make sure large items do not block spray from reaching detergent drspensers.

Spray arm not rotating freely

Check spray arm to make sure It turns freely after loadrng. Be sure a utensil

If water pressure

IS low, do not use water for other purposes whrle dishwasher is running (to assure correct fills).

Cloudy film on glassware, etching - permanent corrosion

Too much detergent in soft water

Check for rainbow hue on glasses. A rainbow hue is the first sign of etching (corrosion of glass).

Reduce the amount of dishwasher detergent.

Use a detergent with a lower phosphorus content.

Inadequate rinsing

If water pressure is low do not use water for other purposes while dishwasher is running (to assure correct water fills). Make sure dishes and glass- ware are loaded properly to assure adequate rinsrng and draining. Do not overload.

Dishes & interior of dishwasher yellow or brown

Iron or manganese in water

Temporary remedy:

1. Set empty dishwasher for a “one wash” cycle

14

2. Start dishwasher and unlatch door to stop it when it has filled for the wash part of the cycle.

3. Add ‘I4 to % cup (120 to 240 mL) of citric acid crystals (usually available in drugstores).

4. Close and latch door to complete Cycle.

Permanent solution: Install an iron or manganese filter or water softener to home water supply.

Rust spots on stainless steel -OR - Dark spots on flatware: stainless steel, silver plate, or sterling

Allowing salty or acidic foods such as mayonnaise, vinegar, fruit juices, salad dressings, milk products to remain on flatware

Rinse flatware that is to stand for several hours before washing (use the Rinse & Hold Cycle).

Clean stained items with silver polish and re-wash.

Do not put stainless steel and silver flatware in the same silverware basket compartment. Direct contact between these metals can cause perma- nent damage to the silver.

Undissolved detergent coming in contact with flatware

Remove spots with silver polish. Avoid spilling concentrated detergent on wet flatware.

Bronze tarnish on silverplate

Silverplate is worn off. Exposed base metal takes on a bronzed hue

Remove tarnish with silver polish. Have silver replated.

Water left in bottom of dishwasher above grate

Dishwasher cycle not completed

Allow dishwasher to complete cycle. Some remaining water IS normal and keeps seals from drying.

Clogged drain air gap

Some plumbing codes require use of a drain air gap between an undercounter dishwasher and the drain system of the house. The air gap is usu- ally located above the sink or on the top of the counter near the dishwasher to prevent the pos- sibility of water backing up from the drain into the dishwasher due to a plugged drain. The drain air gap is not a part of the dishwasher and is not covered by the dishwasher warranty. The drain air gap should be kept clean to ensure proper drain- ing of the dishwasher.

We suggest you follow these five steps:

1. Before calling for assistance...

Performance problems often result from little things you can find and fix yourself without tools of any kind. l l

If your dishwasher will not run, or stops during a cycle:

Is the door tightly closed and securely latched?

Has the cycle been correctly set? l l l

. Is the water turned on?

Have you checked your home’s main fuses or circuit breaker box?

Is the dishwasher wired into a live circuit with the proper voltage?

If the motor has stopped because of an overload, it will automatically reset itself within a few min- utes. If the motor does not start, call for service. l

If dishwasher won’t fill:

Is overflow protector stuck in “up” position?

Overflow protector should move up and down freely. Press down to release.

If water remains in the dishwasher: l l l

Has the cycle completed?

A small amount of remaining water is normal.

Is drain air gap clogged?

If detergent remains in the covered detergent cup: l l l

Is the bottom rack in backwards? (The rack bumpers should be at the front.)

Is the dishwasher detergent fresh and dry without lumps?

Is the cycle completed?

If white residue appears on front of access panel: l l

Is more detergent being used than needed? See page 9 for recommended amounts of detergent.

Some liquid detergents develop excess foam and build up on exterior of access panel. Try a different brand to reduce foaming and eliminate build-up.
