Features

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

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

Wash Cycle Selections
Note: Cycle times are approximate
and will vary
with options selected. Hot water is necessary to
activate dishwasher detergent and melt fatty food
soils. Hot water is needed for best dishwashing
and drying results. Water entering dishwasherer
should be at least 120°F (49°C) to give satisfactory
results.

Load sharp items (knives, skewers, etc.) pointing
down.
Failure to do so may resuIt in injury.

Sanitize Option (on some models)
To sanitize your dishes and glassware, select the
SANITIZE option. When selected, the light above
the pad will come on and remain on until end of
cycle. 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

cycles have been
designed to meet NSF requirements.

Affecting

Performance

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.

be at least 120°F (49°C) to give satisfactory
results.

Heated Dry
The HEATED DRY option in combination with
rinse aid will enhance drying performance.
HEATED DRY option is available on all cycles
except ECO WASH & RINSE ONLY.

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

setting.
Important:
Before starting a cycle, run hot
water at the tap to clear cool water from pipe.
A HEATED DRY option in combination
with
rinse aid will enhance drying performance.
The energy required to use these options
costs pennies per cycle. You may choose to
select the option; however you will have items
in your dish load that will not be completely

& Detergents
Rinse Aid

Dispenser

The detergent dispenser has one main wash and one
pre wash cup. The covered cups open automatically
to release detergent.
Use only fresh automatic dishwashing
detergent. Other detergents will cause
oversudsing.
When using automatic dishwashing detergent
tabs, place one tab in main wash cup and
close.
Add detergent

just before starting

cycle.

Store detergent in a cool,dry location. Moist
or caked detergent will not dissolve properly.

The use of industrial
grade detergent
can
damage the heating coil and other parts of the
dishwasher leading to damage to the unit and
surrounding property. Use only household grade
automatic dishwasher detergents.

How much

Detergent

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.

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
