Important safety instructions
This manual does not cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. Common
sense and caution should always be used when
installing, operating, and maintaining any appliance.
•Read all instructions before using the dishwasher.
•Dishwashers must be electrically grounded.
Read the Installation Instructions for details.
•Use the dishwasher only for its intended purpose.
•Do not run the dishwasher while you are out of
the home.
•Use only automatic dishwasher detergents
and rinse agents.
•To reduce the risk of injury, keep detergents
and rinse aids out of the reach of children.
•Do not load sharp items near the door; you
could damage the door seal.
•Place sharp knives in the silverware basket
with the sharp ends down to avoid the risk of
cut-type injuries.
•Do not wash plastic items unless they are
marked “dishwasher safe” or the equivalent. For items not marked, check the
manufacturer’s recommendations. Items not
dishwasher safe could become deformed or
melt and create a potential fire hazard.
•Do not touch the heating element during or
imediately after use.
•Do not operate the dishwasher unless all
enclosure panels are properly in place (i.e.,
guard plate, access panel, toe kick, etc.)
•Do not tamper with controls by removing or
changing.
•Do not abuse, sit on, or stand on the dishwasher door or baskets .
•To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to play in or on a 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 two weeks, before using the dishwasher turn on all hot water
faucets and let the water flow from each for
several minutes. This will release any accumu-
lated hydrogen gas. As the gas is flammable,
do not smoke or use an open flame during this
time.
•When removing an old dishwasher from service or discarding it, remove the door to the
washing compartment.
•Do not store or use combustible materials, gasoline, or other flammable vapors and liquids
in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
•Disconnect the electrical power to the dishwasher before servicing.
•Repairs should be done by a qualified technician.

Child safety
Child safety tips
Dishwasher detergents and rinse aids are corrosive, so always keep them out of reach of
children.
•Should a child swallow dishwasher detergent or
rinse aid, give plenty to drink immediately, i.e.,
one or two glasses of milk or water. Do not try to
induce vomiting. ����������������������������
Seek medical advice immediately: Call the National Capital Poison Center at
1-800-222-1222
•Always close the door and start the dishwasher
as soon as you put in the detergent.
•Always keep small children away from the
machine when it is open. There may be some
detergent residue left inside the machine.
•If dishwasher detergent gets in someone’s
eyes, rinse them with plenty of water for at
least 15 minutes.
•Do not allow children to use or play in or on the
dishwasher.
•Load all long and sharp items in the knife/utensil basket. If this is not possible, load sharp
objects with the pointed end facing the back of
the dishwasher. Sharp items loaded in the silverware basket should be loaded with pointed
ends down.
• Engage the child safety lock.
Engaging the Child Safety Lock
This model has a child safety lock on the left of
the door handle. To activate the lock, press in
the door handle and use a screwdriver to turn
the screw slot to a vertical position. Reset it by
turning the slot to its horizontal position.
To open the door when the safety lock is engaged, press the white plastic tab located to the
left of the door handle toward the left and hold
it as you lift the door handle. (See illustration at

Basic Course
Below are step-by-step instructions to help you achieve the best possible dishwashing results.
Load the baskets correctly!
Thanks to Self Cleaning System, you do
not need to rinse the dishes under running water. Simply remove large food particles and debris.
Convenient and environmentally-friendly!
Place glasses, cups, bowls, side plates, and
saucers in the upper basket. Wine glasses should
be hung from or leaned against the wine glass
shelf and knives placed in the knife stand if present.
middle for small items or narrow shafts, such
as electric whisks.
Place long cutlery and carving knives in the
special knife box (if present) or in the upper
basket.
Check that the spray arms are able to move
freely.
See the section entitled Fragile Dishes if you
want to wash objects that may be fragile.
Note!
Ensure that all soiled surfaces face inwards or
downwards!
Dishwashing detergent
Place dinner plates, side plates, serving dishes,
saucepans, and cutlery (in the cutlery basket)
in the lower basket. The removable plate insert,
which comes with certain models, can be easily
removed to provide room for large plates, saucepans, and pots, or placed in three alternative
positions.
Stand the cutlery with handles downward and as
spread out as possible. Ensure that spoons are
not resting inside each other.
Do not put cutlery made of different materials
- such as silver and stainless steel - in the same
compartment (risk of stains).
The cutlery basket has a folding flap in the
We recommend that you use
only unscented, granular automatic dishwashing detergent. Using the wrong detergent could
cause flooding and/or damage your dishwasher. Do not use detergent that has been wet and
is clumped. Also, check the expiration date on
the container.
The amount of detergent needed can vary due
to differences in water hardness. To determine the water hardness in your area, contact
your local water utility or area water softening
company. The harder the water, the more
detergent you may need. Refer to the chart below for the recommended detergent amounts
based on water hardness. Remember, you
should adjust the amount of detergent you
use by small amounts until you find the correct
amount.
Customer Care Center
1-800-898-1879
www.askousa.com
Twelve grains and higher is extremely hard
water and detergent alone may not be enough.
You may need to use a water softener to maximize the performance of your dishwasher. Also,
in areas with hard water (9+) you may need to
wash at lower temperatures to prevent hard
water deposits from forming in tank and wash
system.
In hard water areas, both the dishes and the
machine can develop a white or gray film after
a while. This can be removed by replacing the
prewash detergent with two tablespoons of citric
acid. If the water is very hard, use a rinse aid
that contains citric acid.
Different brands of dishwasher detergent have
different amounts of phosphorous for softening
water. If you have hard water and use a detergent with less than 8.7% phosphorous content,
you may need to use more detergent or use a
detergent with more than 8.7% phosphorous
content.
NOTE:
We recommend that you do not add prewash
detergent for the Quick wash programs.
NOTE:
If you use a dishwashing detergent with a rinse
aid additive, you should not fill the rinse aid dispenser. This could cause a film on your dishes.
Dishwasher tablets
Halve the tablet if it is difficult to close the dispenser cover. There is a risk that the dishwasher
detergent will not break down properly to give
the correct dosage if the cover is tight and cannot be opened correctly.
3-in-1/ Multi-purpose detergent
Note!
Read the directions for use for such products
carefully. If anything is unclear, contact the detergent manufacturer.

Fragile dishes
A number of household goods are not suitable for machine washing. This can be due to
a variety of reasons. Certain materials cannot
withstand intense heat; others can be damaged
by the dishwasher detergent.
Fragile decoration
China with decoration on top of the glaze (the
goods have a rough feel) should not be machine
washed.
Crystal/ glass
Place the goods so that they do not knock together during the wash. Use the lowest possible
wash temperature and the shortest possible program. Do not heat dry! Antique and very fragile
items should not be machine washed.
Wood
Wooden items should only be machine washed
if they are labeled as dishwasher safe.
Aluminum
Aluminum can be dulled by machine washing.
However, good quality aluminum saucepans
can be machine washed, although a reduction in
luster should be expected.
Plastic
Certain types of plastic cannot withstand the
high temperature generated in machine dishwashing.
Protect plastic goods
Select a program with a low temperature.
Glass which is machine washed at high temperatures can in time develop a grey film which
cannot be removed. Wash fine glass at the
lowest temperature and with a low dosage of
dishwasher detergent.
Silver
Silver and stainless steel items should not come
into contact with each other as the silver can
discolor.
Cutlery with glued handles
Certain types of adhesive cannot withstand
machine washing. In such cases the handles
can come loose.

only a slightly damp cloth, possibly with a little
detergent. Do not use a spray bottle or similar
around the door catch. This is to ensure that
water does not penetrate into the door catch
and come into contact with the electrical components.
CAUTION!
Do not use a spray bottle or similar around the
door catch.
Tip!
In order to prevent bad odours in the dish-washer, clean the strips and corners with a dish
brush and low-lather detergent.

Rinse aid
Adding rinse aid
In some cases, drying can be made more efficient by using rinse aid.
To fill with rinse aid:
1. Turn and lift up the cover of the rinse aid
compartment to the right of the dispenser. This
is where you top up and set the amount of
rinse aid to be dispensed in each wash.
2. Carefully pour in rinse aid up to the dosage
setting knob.
Alter dosage if required. Do not forget to close
the cover.
Machines with refill indicator
There is a refill indicator in the middle of the
dispenser (see illustration). If the refill indicator is totally black, there is sufficient rinse aid.
However, if the indicator has a more transparent
appearance, you need to fill up with rinse aid
(see above).
Refill indicator
Select dosage
The dispenser is usually set at 1= soft water.
However, depending on the water hardness,
you may need to change the dosage.
Open the rinse aid cover. Here you will find the
dispenser’s adjustment dial. Settings 1-6: the harder the water, the higher the dosage.
When the water hardness exceeds 3 grains, you
should use rinse aid with citric acid (acid rinse
aid).
Too much rinse aid can lead to the build-up of
foam. If your water is particularly soft, you can
dilute the rinse aid (1 part rinse aid, 1 part water).
Too much rinse aid can cause streaks on the
dishes, while too little can result in water stains.
