We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety messages. This symbol alerts you to hazards that can kill or hurt you and others. All safety will be preceded by the safety alert symbol and the word =DANGER" or This is themessages safety alert symbol, '_/VARNING," These words mean: You will be killed or seriously injured if you don't follow instructions. You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't follow instructions, All safety messages will identify the hazard, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can happen if the instructions are' not followed. IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS WARNING: When using the dishwasher, follow basic precautions, including the following: • • • 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. • 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 or dish racks of the dishwasher. • 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. • To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to play in or on the dishwasher. • 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. 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 to the washing compartment removing an old dishwasher from service or discarding it. SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS 4 when BeforeUsingYourDishwasher GROUNDING 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, 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: 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, SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS Electrical Shock Hazard Electrically ground dishwasher. Connect ground wire to green ground connector in terminal box. Do not use an extension cord. Failure to follow these Instructions can result In death, fire, or electrical shock. = Install where dishwasher is protected from the elements. Protect against freezing to avoid possible rupture of fill valve. Such ruptures are not covered by the warranty. See "Storing Your Dishwasher" in the "Caring for Your Dishwasher" section for winter storage information. • Install and level dishwasher on a floor that will hold the weight, and in an area suitable for its size and use. • Remove all shipping plugs from hoses and connectors (such as the cap on the drain outlet) before installing.

Food soil is disposed down the drain with the wash water. The ULTRA WASH soil removal system gives you sparkling clean dishes, while using less energy and time. The ULTRA WASH soil removal system includes: • A heavy-duty grinder that acts as a food disposer to grind and dispose of large food particles. • An ULTRA WASH sensor to monitor soil level and adjust the cycles as needed. How the ULTRA WASH soil removal system works: 1. Load the dishwasher. Remove bones, large chunks or burned-on food. No rinsing is necessary. Any remaining food soil will be ground up and disposed down the drain with the rinse water. 2. Hot water fills the dishwasher to a level near the bottom of the overfill protection float. 3. The Water Heating indicator glows and the dishwasher pauses while the water is heated. 4. When the water reaches the proper temperature, the Water Heating indicator turns off and the cycle countdown resumes. 9. Fresh, hot water enters the dishwasher and sprays on the dishes. The rinse water is then pumped through the ULTRA WASH soil removal system and remaining soil is removed. 10.The food soil that is held in the ULTRA WASH soil removal system is disposed down the drain with the rinse water. 11. The final rinse water is heated. The rinse aid is added to the water for the final rinse to prepare the dishes for drying. How the ULTRA WASH sensor adjusts the cycle: 1. The SENSING indicator glows when the ULTRA WASH Sensor is measuring the amount of soil in the dishwasher. 2. After the soil level is determined, unnecessary portions of the cycle are skipped. 5. Detergent from the detergent dispenser is dispensed at the correct cycle times and hot water is pumped through the ULTRA WASH pump. 6. Hot water and detergent sprays against the soiled surfaces of the load and removes food particles. 7. Food soil is held in an accumulating chamber. 7 START-UP GUIDE LOADING YOUR DISHWASHER Before using your dishwasher, remove all hang tags, temporary labels, and packaging materials. Read this entire Use and Care Guide. You will find important safety information and useful operating tips. Loading Suggestions UsingYourNew Dishwasher Remove leftover food, bones, toothpicks and other hard items from the dishes. It is not necessary to rinse the dishes before putting them in the dishwasher. The wash module removes food particles from the water. The module contains a chopping device which will reduce the size of food items. 1. Scrape large food soil and hard items (toothpicks or bones) from dishes• 2. Properly load the dishwasher. (See "Loading Your Dishwasher.") Make sure nothing prevents the spray arm(s) from spinning freely. \ NOTE: If hard items such as fruit seeds, nuts, and egg shells enter the wash module, you might hear chopping, grinding, crunching, or buzzing sounds. These sounds are normal when hard items enter the module. Do not let metallic items (such as pot handle screws) get into the wash module. Damage can.occur. • Load dishes so soiled surfaces face the spray (down or inward). It is important for the water spray to reach all soiled surfaces• • Load dishes so they are not stacked or overlapping if possible. For best drying, water must be able to drain from all surfaces. • Make sure pot lids and handles, pizza pans, cookie sheets, etc., do not interfere with the spray arm rotation. 3. Add detergent and check the rinse aid dispenser. Add rinse aid if needed• (See "Using Your Dishwasher.") Run a rinse cycle to keep dishes moist if you do not plan to wash them soon, Foods like eggs, rice, pasta, spinach, and cooked cereals may be hard to remove if they are left to dry over a period of time. 4. Push door firmly closed. The door latches automatically. Run hot water at the sink nearest your dishwasher until the water is hot. (See "Dishwasher Efficiency Tips.") Turn off water. Quiet operating tips To avoid thumping/clattering noises during operation: • Make sure lightweight load items are secured in the racks, • Make sure pot lids and handles, pizza pans, cookie sheets, etc., do not touch interior walls or interfere with the rotation of the spray arm. • Load dishes so they do not touch one another. NOTE: For built-in models, keep sink drain plugs closed during dishwasher operation to prevent noise transfer through drains. 5. Press the desired cycle and option selections. (See "Using Your Dishwasher.") Press START. 8 Utensil basket Loadingthe Top Rack The top rack is designed for cups, glasses, and smaller items. (See recommended loading patterns shown.) Use this extra capacity basket on the top rack to hold spatulas, wooden spoons, and similar items. NOTE= The features on your dishwasher rack may vary from the drawings shown. Extra-capacity fold-down shelves Fold down the extra shelf on the right side of the top rack to hold additional cups, or long items such as utensils and spatulas. 10 place setting Fold-down Unes (on some models) Fold the tines in the top rack all the way down to accommodate larger items. No-flip clips (on some models) 12 place setting Place items so open ends face down for cleaning and draining. The no-flip clips hold lightweight plastic items like cups, lids, or bowls in place during washing. You can move a clip anywhere in the rack. Load glasses in top rack only. The bottom rack is not designed for glasses. Damage can occur. Place cups and glasses in the rows between prongs. Placing them over the prongs can lead to breakage. China, crystal, and other delicate items must not touch each other during dishwasher operation. Damage may OCCUE Load plastic items in the top rack only. Only plastic items marked "dishwasher safe" are recommended. Load plastic items so the force of the spray does not move them during the cycle. 1. Pull the clip up and off the tine. 2. Reposition the clip on another tine. Small items basket (on some models) Place this basket in the top rack. To avoid chipping, do not let stemware touch other items. Small bowls, pans, and other utensils can be placed in the top rack. Load bowls in the center section for best stability. Use the basket to hold small items that could otherwise "fly" around inside the dishwasher during a cycle. 9 Load cookie sheets, cake pans, and other large items at the sides and back. Loading such items in front can keep the water spray from reaching the detergent dispenser. Loadingthe Bottom Rack The bottom rack is designed for plates, pans, casseroles, and utensils. Items with cooked-on or dried-on food should be loaded with soiled surfaces facing inward to the spray. (See recommended loading patterns shown.) NOTE: The features on your dishwasher from the drawings shown. • Secure heavily soiled cookware face down in the rack. • Make sure pot handles and other items do not stop rotation of the spray arm(s). The spray arm(s) must move freely. • Do not load items between the bottom rack and the side of the dishwasher tub. You can block the water inlet opening. rack may vary NOTE: If you have removed the bottom rack for unloading or cleaning, replace it with the bumpers in front. Fold-down tines You can fold down one or both rows of tines at the back of the bottom rack, 10 place setting Do not load glasses, cups, orplastic items in the bottom rack. Load small items in the bottom rack only if they are secured in place. Load plates, soup bowls, etc., between prongs and facing inward to the spray. Overlap the edges of plates for large loads. Load soup, cereal, and serving bowls in the rack in a variety of ways depending upon their size and shape. Load bowls securely between the rows of prongs. Do not nest bowls because the spray will not reach all surfaces. 1. Grasp the tip of the tins that is in the tine holder. 2. Gently pull the tins out of the tine holder. 3. Lay the row of tines down in the rack to make room for larger dishes, bowls, pots, pans or roasters. 12 place setting 10 USING YOUR DISHWASHER Loadingthe SilverwareBasket Load the silverware basket while it is in the bottom rack or take the basket out for loading on a counter or table. NOTE: Unload or remove the basket before unloading the racks to avoid spilling water droplets on the silverware. Place small items like baby bottle caps, jar lids, corn cob holders, etc., in the section(s) with hinged cover(s). Close the cover to hold small items in place (on some models). This silverware basket can be separated and placed into the bottom rack in several locations. Load silverware in all sections or just one, depending upon your load. Mix items in each section of the basket with some pointing up and some down to avoid nesting. Spray cannot reach nested items. Detergent Dispenser The detergent dispenser has 2 sections. The Pre-Wash section empties detergent into the dishwasher when you close the door. 1. Cover 2. Main wash section 3. Cover latch 4. Pre-wash section The larger Main Wash section automatically empties detergent into the dishwasher during the main wash. (See the "Cycle Selection Chart.") Use automatic dishwashing detergent only. Other detergents can produce excessive suds that can overflow out of the dishwasher and reduce washing performance. • Add detergent just before starting cycle. • Store tightly closed detergent in a cool, dry place. Fresh automatic dishwasher detergent results in better cleaning. IMPORTANT; Always load sharp items (knives, skewers, forks, etc.) pointing down. NOTE: Do not use detergent with a rinse cycle. To remove a small basket Filling the dispenser 1. Hold the center basket and one small basket. Slide the small basket forward to release the tabs from the corresponding slots. 1. If the dispenser cover is closed, open the cover by pushing the Cover latch. 2. Fill the Main Wash section with detergent. See "How Much Detergent to Use." 3. Close the Main Wash dispenser cover. Fill the PreWash section if needed. It is normal for the cover to open partially when dispensing detergent. 2. Pull the baskets apart. NOTE: Use both sections for cycles with 2 washes. Use only the covered section for cycles with 1 wash. See the "Cycle Selection Chart" for more details. NOTES: • Do not load silver or silver-plated silverware with stainless steel. These metals can be damaged by contact with each other during washing. • Some foods (such as salt, vinegar, milk products, fruit juices, etc.) can pit or corrode silverware. Run a rinse cycle if you do not have a full load to wash immediately. 11 How much detergent to use • The amount of detergent to use depends on the hardness of your water and the type of detergent. If you use too little, dishes won't be clean. If you use too much in soft water, glassware will etch. Water hardness can change over a period of time. Find out your water's hardness by asking your local water department, water softener company, or county extension agent. Different brands of dishwasher detergent have different amounts of phosphorous for softening water. If you have hard water and use a detergent with a phosphorous content of less than 8.7%, you might need to use more detergent, or use a detergent with a phosphorous content higher than 8.7%. Where to fill Top of 3rd step (3 tbs or 45 g) Medium to Hard Water For normally soiled and heavily soiled loads: 7 to 12 grains per gallon • Fill the Main Wash section (3 tbs or 45 g) • Partially fill the Pre-Wash section (2 tbs or 30 g) if needed i NOTE: Fill amounts shown are for standard powdered detergent. Amounts may vary if you use liquid or concentrated powdered detergent. Follow instructions on the package when using liquid dishwasher detergent or concentrated powdered detergent. RinseAidDispenser Rinse aids prevent water from forming droplets that can dry as spots or streaks. They also improve drying by allowing water to drain off of the dishes during the final rinse by releasing a small amount of the rinse aid into the rinse water. Your dishwasher is designed to use a liquid rinse aid. Do not use a solid or bar-type. Checking Top of 2nd step (2 tbs or 30 g) the dispenser Check the center of the Fill Indicator cap, Clear means it needs filling. Top of 1st step (1 tb or 15 g) Water Hardness Amount of Detergent Soft to Medium Hard Water For normally soiled loads: 0 to 6 grains per gallon • Partially fill the Main Wash section (2 tbs or 30 g) • Partially fill the Pre-Wash section (2 tbs or 30 g) if needed NOTE: Add only 1 tb or 15 g of detergent to both sections if dishes are pre-rinsed or the water is very soft (0 to 2 grains per gallon). For heavily soiled loads: Or you can remove the Fill Indicator cap. If an "E" is visible, the dispenser is empty. Filling the dispenser The rinse aid dispenser holds 6 oz (175 mL) of rinse aid. Under normal conditions, this will last for about three months. You do not have to wait until the dispenser is empty to refill it. Try to keep it full, but be careful not to overfill it. 1. Make sure the dishwasher door is completely open. 2. Remove the Fill indicator cap. 3. Add rinse aid. Fill to the smallest opening in the lower part of the dispenser. Overfilling can cause the rinse aid to leak out, and could cause overeudsing. = Fill the Main Wash section (3 tbs or 45 g) • Partially fill the Pre-Wash section (2 tbs or 30 g) 4. Clean up any spilled rinse aid with a damp cloth. 5. Replace the Fill Indicator cap. Close tightly. 12 4, DishwasherEfficiencyTips Hot water dissolves and activates the dishwashing detergent. Hot water also dissolves grease on dishes and helps glasses dry spot-free. For best dishwashing results, water must be at least 120°F (49°C) as it enters the dishwasher. Loads may not wash as well if the water temperature is too low. To check water temperature 1. Run hot water at the faucet closest to your dishwasher for at least 1 minute. 2, Place a candy or meat thermometer in a glass measuring cup. If the water temperature at the faucet is below 120°F (49°C), have a qualified person raise the water heater's thermostat setting. To save water and energy, do not rinse dishes before putting them into the dishwasher. Use a low energy, quick, or short cycle whenever possible. These cycles use less hot water and energy than the Normal cycle. Use a delay feature (on some models) to run your dishwasher during off-peak hours. Local utilities recommend avoiding heavy usage of energy at certain times of day. During the summer, run your dishwasher at night to reduce daytime heat buildup. Use an air dry, or an energy-saving dry option whenever possible. Allow longer drying times (overnight) when using these options. Use a rinse aid to improve drying, Use cycles or options that add extra heat to the wash or rinse portion of the cycle only when needed. 3. Check the temperature on the thermometer as the water is running into the cup. i Run your dishwasher with full loads. Run a rinse cycle after meals until the dishwasher is full. 13 ControlPanel I SENSING O WATER HEATING OQO WASH gig RINSE gO DRY g g CLEAN LOCK O g g g lB _ 4 g 6 O qllll) J O :o.s i_.1 wa ... io0,c.l ANS WASH MISER WASH RINSE SENSINGCYCLES OPTIONS with normal amounts of Use this loads food soil.cycle (Thefor energyusage label is based on this cycle.)

This is normal as the heat dries your dishes. I CLEAN Sensing Your dishwasher senses the soil level on the dishes. Soil level determines the length of some cycles, the amount of heat added to the wash or rinse, and the cycle needed for the load, SENSING glows during the soil sensing parts of the cycle. Wash action continues while sensing occurs. Water Heating WATER HEATING glows, and the cycle progression pauses, whenever water is heated during a cycle. Wash or dnse action continues as the water heats. Lock On When LOCK ON is lit, all buttons are disabled. I LOCKON IMPORTANT: The vapor is hot.

CARING FOR YOUR DISHWASHER Cleaning Your Dishwasher DrainAir Gap Check the drain air gap anytime your dishwasher isn't draining well Some state or local plumbing codes require the addition of a drain air gap between a built-in dishwasher and the home drain system. If a drain is clogged, the drain air gap protects your dishwasher from water backing up into it. Cleaning the exterior In most cases, regular use of a soft, damp cloth or sponge and a mild detergent is all that is necessary to keep the outside of your dishwasher looking nice and clean. The drain air gap is usually located on top of the sink or countertop near the dishwasher. To order a drain air gap call 1-800-366-7278 and ask for Part Number 300096. Cleaning the interior Hard water minerals can cause a white film to build up on the inside surfaces, especially just beneath the door area. Do not clean the dishwasher interior until it has cooled. Wear rubber gloves. Do not use any type of cleanser other than dishwasher detergent because it may cause foaming or sudsing. To clean interior Make a paste with powdered dishwasher detergent on a damp sponge and clean. NOTE: The drain air gap is an external plumbing device that is not part of your dishwasher. The warranty provided with your dishwasher does not cover service costs directly associated with the cleaning or repair of the external drain air gap. To clean the drain air gap Clean the drain air gap periodically to ensure proper drainage of your dishwasher. Follow the cleaning instructions provided by the manufacturer. With most types, you lift off the chrome cover. Unscrew the plastic cap. Then check for any soil buildup. Clean if necessary. OR Use liquid automatic dishwasher detergent and clean with a damp sponge. OR See the vinegar rinse procedure in "Spotting and filming on dishes" in "Troubleshooting." NOTE: Run a Normal cycle with detergent after cleaning the interior. 19 StoringYourDishwasher Storing for the summer Protect your dishwasher during the summer months by turning off the water supply and power supply to the dishwasher.
