Dishwasher Features

Your dishwasher cleans by spraying a mixture of hot water and detergent through the spray arms against soiled surfaces.

Each cycle begins with a pre-drain.

Next, the dishwasher fills with water covering the filter area. Water is then pumped through the filter and spray arms. Soil particles go down the drain as the water is pumped out and replaced with clean water. The number of water fills will vary with the cycle being used.

This dishwasher does not sound like most dishwashers--IT'S QUIETER.

Your Precision Wash System®dishwasher uses energy efficient motors for the wash and drain portions of the cycle you select.

Each cycle has a series of water fills and drains for washing and rinsing dishes.

As each cycle begins, you may-or may not-hear the drain motor.

The next sound you will hear is the splashing water as it enters the tub. Then the lower arm rotates and circulates water.

This is followed by a pause and a slightly different sound as the middle arm sprays water.

If you listen closely, you will hear the change in sound as the wash action switches from one arm to the other.

PLEASE BE ADVISED: If you compare this dishwasher to previous models, you may be surprised at what you DON'T hear!

Energy Options

Hi-Temp Wash Option

When HI-TEMP WASH ON option is selected, the dishwasher heats the water in the main wash to approximately 140°F (60°C).

Wash action will continue but timer will not advance until proper temperature is reached.

The hotter water provided by this option helps activate dishwasher detergent to clean food grease and soil from dishes.

HI-

TEMP WASH ON option can be used with any cycle except CHINA and RINSE HOLD.

To turn off option, select HI-TEMP WASH OFF.

Sanitize Option

To sanitize your dishes and glassware, select the

SANITIZE ON option.

The water temperature in the final rinse will be raised to 155°F (68°C) and will maintain that temperature for 9 minutes.

This option is available in Pots & Pans, Normal, Light and Glasses cycles.

The cycle time will be extended until the proper water temperature is reached.

Washing action will continue during the water heating delay.

For best results, the incoming water temperature should be at least 120°F

(49°C).

The sanitize criteria may not be satisfied if there is an interruption of the cycle, power failure, or if the incoming water temperature is below 120°F

(49°C).

Heat Dry Option

HEAT DRY ON option provides faster drying since the heating element is on during the drying portion of cycle.

HEAT DRY OFF option saves electricity since the heating element is off during the drying portion of cycle. To speed drying process, open the door slightly after the cycle is complete.

Some water droplets may remain on door and tub and in areas where dishes touch silverware basket and rack.

With either option, you may see water vapor coming from vent during drying portion of cycle.

The vent is closed during washing to hold moisture and sound inside and then opens for drying.

The drying option may be changed at any time during the cycle and affects only the drying period.

Preparing and Loading Dishes

Dish Preparation

Scrape away large pieces of food, bones, pits, toothpicks, etc. The continuous filtered wash system will remove remaining food particles.

Burned-on foods should be loosened before loading. Empty liquids from glasses and cups.

Foods such as mustard, mayonnaise, vinegar, lemon juice and tomato based products may cause discoloration of stainless steel and plastics if allowed to sit for a long period of time. Unless the dishwasher is to be operated at once, it is best to rinse off these food soils.

Load racks so that large items do not prevent the detergent dispenser from opening.

• Check manufacturer's recommendations before washing items in question.

• If the dishwasher drains into a food disposer, be sure disposer is completely empty before starting dishwasher.

Loading the Top Rack

Features and appearance of racks and silverware basket may vary from your model

Important: Do not cover the funnel when loading.

The top rack is designed for cups, glasses, small plates, saucers and bowls.

Load glasses in top rack. Damage may occur if placed in bottom rack.

Load plastic items in top rack only. Melting may occur if placed in bottom rack.

Load items with open ends facing down for better cleaning and draining.

Damage may occur if delicate items touch each other during dishwasher operation.

Long-handled knives and utensils can be placed in top rack.

Be sure nothing protrudes through the bottom of the rack to block rotation of middle spray arm.

Do not cover funnel

Preparing and Loading Dishes

(continued)

Utility Basket

(available select models)

The utility basket has two dividers that can be opened to hold longer items or closed for small items like measuring spoons, bottle stoppers, etc. The covers on each end can be folded down out of the way or closed to keep small items inside.

Loading the Silverware

Basket

Mix spoons, forks and knives to prevent nesting.

Mixing items gives better cleaning and drying.

For safety, load sharp knives and forks with handles up.

Be sure nothing protrudes through bottom of basket or rack to block the spray arm.

Do not mix silver and stainless to avoid damaging the silver finish.

Loading the Bottom Rack

Make sure tall items do not block spray arm rotation.

Place plates and platters so that they do not touch.

Place bowls, casseroles and sauce pans with the soiled surface facing down or toward the center. Tilt slightly for better drainage.

Be sure pan handles do not protrude through the bottom of the rack and block the spray arm rotation.

Adding a Dish

To add or remove items after wash cycle starts:

• Unlatch door and wait a few seconds until wash action stops before opening.

• Add the item and wait a few seconds to allow cold air to slowly expand inside dishwasher.

• Close door firmly to latch and resume cycle.

Dishwasher Dispenser & Detergents

Filling the Detergent Dispenser

The detergent dispenser has one covered and one uncovered cup. Detergent in the uncovered cup falls into the dishwasher when the door is closed.

The covered detergent.

cup opens automatically to release

How much Detergent to use

The amount of detergent to use depends on the water hardness.

Water hardness is measured in grains per gallon.

Using too little detergent can result in poor cleaning and hard water filming or spotting.

Using too much detergent in soft water can cause a permanent film called etching.

Your local water company, water softener company or county extension agent can tell you the water hardness in your area.

• Useonlyfreshautomaticdishwashingdetergent.

Other detergents will cause oversudsing.

• Add detergent just before starting cycle.

• Store detergent in a cool, dry location.

Moist or caked detergent will not dissolve properly.

A water softener is recommended to improve water quality and dishwashing performance.

Try adding more detergent at the beginning of the main wash portion of the cycle. As a rule, use 1 teaspoon for each grain above 12. Unlatch the door, open slowly and add detergent to the bottom of the tub. Close the door to latch and the dishwasher will continue through the cycle.

Detergents

(continued)

Rinse Aid

Rinse aid greatly improves drying and reduces water spots and filming.

Water

"sheets" off dishes rather than forming water droplets that cling and leave spots.

A dispenser, located next to the detergent cup, automatically releases a measured amount of rinse aid during the last rinse. If spotting and poor drying are problems, increase the amount of rinse aid dispensed by rotating the dial to a higher number. The dial is located under the dispenser cap. The indicator will be dark when full and will show clear when it is time to refill.

To add liquid rinse aid, turn dispenser cap 1/4 turn counterclockwise and lift out. Pour in rinse aid until liquid touches the indicated fill level.

Replace cap.

Do not overfill since this can cause oversudsing.

Wipe up any spills with a damp cloth.

The dispenser holds enough for 35 to 140 washes, depending on setting.

Factors Affecting

Performance

Water Pressure

The hot water line to dishwasher must provide water pressure between 20 and 120 psi.

Low water pressure may occur when laundry or showers are in operation.

Wait until water use is reduced before starting dishwasher.

Water Temperature

Hot water is needed for best dishwashing and drying results. Water entering dishwasher should be at least 120°F (49°C) to give satisfactory results.

To check water temperature entering dishwasher:

• Turn on hot water faucet nearest dishwasher for several minutes to clear cool water from pipes.

• Hold a candy or meat thermometer in stream of water to check the temperature.

• If temperature is below 120°F (49°C), have a qualified person raise the hot water heater thermostat setting.

Important: Before starting a cycle, run hot water to clear cool water from pipe.

Care and Cleaning

Burn Hazard

Allow heating element to cool

before cleaning the interior.

Failure to do so can result in burns.

Outside--Occasionally wipe with a mild nonabrasive detergent and water. Rinse and dry.

Inside--The inside of the dishwasher is selfcleaning with normal use. If needed, clean around the tub gasket area with a damp cloth.

The filter is self-cleaning.

A glass trap located in the center of the filter is designed to collect pieces of broken glass, straws, bones and pits.

To remove items in glass trap, grasp handle, lift out, empty and replace.

Care of Drain Air Gap

If a drain air gap was installed for your built-in dishwasher, check to make sure it is clean so the dishwasher will drain properly. A drain air gap is usually mounted on countertop and can be inspected by removing the cover. This is not part of your dishwasher and is not covered by warranty.

Property Damage Hazard

Freezing temperatures may cause water

lines to rupture. Be sure all supply lines to

and circulating lines within dishwasher are protected.

Failure to do so could result in property damage.

®

Note: Hard water may cause lime deposit buildup on the interior of the dishwasher.

For cleaning instructions see "Removing Spots and Film" section.

Overfill Protector--keeps

dishwasher

from

overfilling and is located in the left front corner of the tub.

• Clean occasionally with household cleaner containing vinegar or bleach to dissolve any buildup.

• Overfill Protector should move up and down freely about one inch. If it does not move, lift and clean underneath.

10

Winterizing

A dishwasher left in an unheated place should be protected from freezing.

Have a qualified person do the following:

To Disconnect Service:

1. Turn off electrical power to the dishwasher

at the supply source by removing fuses or

tripping circuit breaker.

2.

Shut off water supply.

3.

Place a pan under the inlet valve.

Disconnect water line from inlet valve and drain into pan.

4.

Disconnect drain line from pump and drain

water into pan.

Note: See Installation Instructions for more details.

To Restore Service:

1.

Reconnect the water, drain, and electrical power supply.

2.

Turn on water and electrical power supply.

3.

Fill both detergent cups and run dishwasher through a NORMAL cycle.

4.

Check connections to make sure they do not leak.

Note: See Installation Instructions for more details.

Solutions to Common Dishwashing Problems

Before calling for service, review this list. It may save you both time and expense.

This list includes common experiences that are not the result of defective workmanship or material in your dishwasher.

Food Soils Left on Dishes

• Choose another cycle for longer washing time.

• Check rack loading section for proper loading--avoid nesting items.

• Home water pressure may be too low-should be 20 to 120 pounds per square inch (psi).

• Check incoming water temperature.

It should be at least 120°F (49°C).

(See

Factors Affecting Performance.)

• Select HI-TEMP WASH option.

• Check water hardness.

For extremely hard water, it may be necessary to install a water softener.

(See Detergent Chart.)

• Use fresh detergent.

• Check to make sure funnel in top rack is not blocked.

• Make sure items are not blocking the spray arms, preventing them from rotating.

Dishes not Dry

• Select Heat Dry option.

• Make sure the rinse aid dispenser is filled.

• Increase the amount of rinse aid. (See

Rinse Aid.)

• Check the incoming water temperature.

Be sure it is at least 120°F (49°C).

• Check for proper loading--avoid nesting items.

• Plastic items may need to be towel dried.

• Cups with a concave bottom will collect water.

Glassware/Flatware Spotted or

Cloudy

• Check water hardness.

For extremely hard water, it may be necessary to install a water softener.

(See Detergent Chart.)

• Water temperature may be low. Avoid extremely low or high temperatures.

(See

Factors Affecting Performance.)

• Avoid overloading and improper loading.

(See Preparing and Loading Dishes.)

• Use fresh detergent.

Old detergent is ineffective.

• Make sure rinse aid dispenser is filled.

• Check to see that proper amount of detergent is being used for cycle selected.

Also, check phosphate level. (See

Detergent Dispenser.)

• Home water pressure may be too low--it should be 20 to 120 pounds per square inch (psi).

Dishware Chipped

• Load with care and do not overload.

(See

Preparing and Loading Dishes.)

• Place delicate items in top rack.

• Place glasses securely against pins and not over pins.

• Load items so they are secure and don't jar loose when moving racks in and out. Move racks in and out slowly.

• Make sure tall glasses and stemware will clear top of tub when rack is pushed in.

• Fine antique china and crystal should be hand-washed.

11

Solutions to Common Dishwashing Problems

(continued)

Dishware Stained or Discolored

• Tea and coffee can stain cups. Remove the stains by hand washing in a solution of 1/2 cup (120 ml) bleach and one quart (1 L) of warm water. Rinse thoroughly.

• Iron deposits in water can cause a yellow or brown film. A special filter installed in the water supply line will correct this problem.

(See Removing Spots and Film.)

• Aluminum utensils can leave gray/black marks when they rub against other items.

Load properly.

• Certain high acid foods can cause discoloration of stainless steel and plastics if allowed to sit for a long period.

Use the

Rinse Hold cycle or rinse by hand if not operating dishwasher at once.

• Mixing stainless steel and silver utensils in silverware basket can cause pitting of the stainless steel blades. Avoid mixing stainless steel and silver.

Etching

Using too much detergent in soft or softened water causes this film that cannot be removed.

• Adjust the amount of detergent based on

the water hardness.

(Check Detergent

Chart.)

• Lower the water temperature.

Use the Heat Dry Off option.

Detergent Left in Cups

• Detergent may be old. Discard and use fresh detergent.

Be sure water action can reach the dispenser.

• Check to see if cycle has been completed.

Make sure items do not prevent the detergent dispenser from opening.

Dishwasher Leaks

Use only fresh detergent designed for automatic dishwashers.

Measure detergent carefully. Try a different brand.

Spilled rinse aid can cause foam and lead to overflowing.

Wipe up any spills with a damp cloth.

Check to see that dishwasher is level. (See

Installation Instructions.)

Normal Sounds You Will Hear

Normal sounds include water fill, water circulation and motor sounds.

There is a noticeable change in sound when the wash action switches between the lower and middle spray arm. This is normal since each spray arm has its own sound.

It is normal for dishwasher to pause (no sound) when the wash action is switching between the lower and middle spray arms.

Water in Bottom of Tub

Water left in bottom of tub after cycle is complete is not normal.

If water remains in the bottom of the tub, dishwasher may not be draining properly. (See Dishwasher

Does Not Drain Properly.)

Vapor at Vent

Water vapor escapes from the vent when

the dishwasher goes into the drying part of cycle. This is normal.

Dishwasher Won't Run

• Check to see if circuit breaker is tripped or if a fuse is blown.

• Make sure water supply is turned on.

• Check to see if cycle is set correctly.

(See

Operating Instructions.)

• Is dishwasher set for delay start option?

• Make sure door is closed and latched.

12

Solutions to Common Dishwashing Problems

(continued)

Dishwasher Does Not Drain Properly

• If unit is hooked up to a food waste disposer, make sure the disposer is empty.

• Check to see if the knockout plug has been removed from inside the food waste disposer inlet.

• Check to see if drain hose is kinked.

• Make sure cycle is complete, not in a pause.

Cycle Takes a Long Time

• Is cycle in a water heating delay?

• Has the delay start option been selected?

• Has the sanitize option been selected?

Dishwasher Won't Fill

• Is water supply turned on?

• Check your home circuit breaker or fuse box.

• Check inlet hose for a kink.

• Does overfill protector move up and down freely?

(See Overfill Protector section.)

Dishwasher Has an Odor

• Soiled dishes left in dishwasher too long can create an odor. Rinse dishes if not running dishwasher at once.

• There will be a "new" smell when first installed.

This is normal.

• Check to see if unit is draining properly.

(See Dishwasher Does Not Drain Properly.)

Stains on Tub Interior

Washing large amounts of dishware with tomato based soil can cause a pink/orange appearance.

This will not affect performance and will gradually fade over time. Pre-rinsing will reduce the chance of staining.

Using Heat Dry Off option will lessen staining.

Removing Spots and Film

Hard water can cause lime deposit buildup on the interior of the dishwasher.

Dishes and glasses may also get spots and film for a number of reasons.

(See Glassware/Flatware

Spotted or Cloudy section.) To remove buildup, spots and film, clean using the following instructions:

1.

Load clean dishes and glasses in normal manner.

Do not load any metal utensils or silverware.

2. Do not add detergent.

3. Select the POTS & PANS cycle. Close and latch door.

4. Allow dishwasher to run for 25 minutes to reach the main wash portion of cycle.

5. Unlatch and open door and pour 2 cups of white vinegar into the bottom of dishwasher.

6.

Close and latch door and allow cycle to finish.

Note: If these conditions persist, a home water softener should be considered.

To customize your dishwasher to match your cabinets:

• You will need a trim kit.

• See Step 10 of Installation Instructions that came with your dishwasher for more information.
