IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

•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.

•To reduce the risk of injury, do not

allow children to play in or on the

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 EXPLO-

SIVE. 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 when removing an old

dishwasher from service or discarding it.

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.

•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.

•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.

Your safety and the safety of others is very important.

We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your

appliance. Always read and obey all safety messages.

This is the safety alert symbol.

This symbol alerts you to hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.

All safety messages will be preceded by the safety alert symbol and the

word “DANGER” or “WARNING.” These words mean:

wDANGER

wWARNING

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.

Starting Your Dishwasher

wWARNING

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.

wWARNING

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.

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 conduc-

tor 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.

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 –

8051220 v15 (c41) 7/1/98 9:08 AM Page 5

1. Load the dishwasher. See the “Loading

Your Dishwasher” section.

2. Spin the spray arms. They should turn

freely.

3. Add detergent. See the “Using the

Dispensers” section.

4. Add rinse agent, if needed.

5. Close door firmly until it latches.

Stopping the dishwasher

You can stop your dishwasher anytime

during a cycle. All you have to do is:

•Open the door slightly. Wait for any filling

or spraying action to stop before opening

the door all the way. Close the door to

continue the cycle.

6. Run hot water at the sink nearest the

dishwasher until water is hot.

Turn off water.

7. Press a Cycle pad. If desired, press one

or more Options pads. See

the ”Setting the Controls”

section.

NOTE: Normal Wash, Light

Wash and Rinse Only share

the same pad. The Cycle Control knob

determines which cycle operates.

8. Turn the Cycle Control knob clockwise to

the desired cycle. You will

feel a definite “stop” at each

cycle mark. The dishwasher

automatically starts the cycle

you select.

NOTE: If the door is latched, you will

hear the cycles start and stop as the

control knob passes each cycle mark.

This is normal and does not hurt the

dishwasher. If you prefer, you can set

the Cycle Control knob with the door

unlatched.

Starting a wash cycle

•Turn the Cycle Control knob slowly

clockwise until you hear water draining.

Let the dishwasher drain completely. Then

open the door and turn the Cycle Control

knob to Off.

Loading Your Dishwasher

Preparing to load your dishwasher

•To save water and energy, do not rinse

dishes before putting them into the

dishwasher.

•Remove large pieces of food, bones, and

other hard items. The POWER CLEAN*

filter module removes food particles from

the water. The module contains a chopping

device which reduces the size of food

items.

NOTE: If hard items such as fruit seeds, nuts,

and egg shells enter the POWER CLEAN filter

module, you might hear chopping, grinding,

crunching, or buzzing sounds. These sounds

are normal when hard items enter the module.

Do not let metal items (such as pot handle

screws) get into the POWER CLEAN filter

module. Damage can occur.

•Foods like eggs, rice, pasta, and cooked

cereals may be hard to remove if left to

dry over a period of time. Run a Rinse

Only cycle to keep dishes moist if you do

not plan to wash them soon.

Loading the silverware basket

•Load the silverware basket while it is in

the dishwasher or take the basket out for

loading on a counter or table.

•Mix items in each section of the basket

with some pointing up and some down

to avoid nesting. Spray cannot reach

nested items.

IMPORTANT: Always load sharp items

(knives, skewers, forks, etc.) pointing down.

•Put small items (baby bottle caps, jar lids,

etc.) in any section.

•You can also remove the basket for easy

unloading. Always unload or remove the

basket before unloading the racks to avoid

spilling water on the silverware.

•Load dishes so soiled surfaces face the

rotating spray arm.

•Load dishes so they are not stacked or

overlapping. It is important for the water

spray to reach all soiled surfaces for best

washing. For best drying, water must be

able to drain from all surfaces

Loading for quiet operation

•Secure lightweight load items in the

racks.

•Pot lids and handles, pizza pans, cookie

sheets, etc., should not touch interior

walls, interfere with the spray arm’s

rotation, or cover the spray tower.

•Load dishes so they do not touch

one another.

NOTE: Keep sink drain plugs inserted

during dishwasher operation to prevent

noise transfer through drains.

8051220 v15 (c41) 7/1/98 9:08 AM Page 7

Loading the bottom rack

Load items with cooked-on or dried-on food

in the bottom rack, with soiled surfaces

facing inward to the spray.

Mixed load

•Load plates, soup bowls, etc., between

prongs and facing inward to the spray.

•Make sure pot handles and other items do

not stop rotation of the spray arm. Spray

arm must move freely.

•Load items so they do not block or cover

the spray tower.

•Load heavily soiled cookware face down

in rack.

•Do not stack or overlap dishes. Water

spray must reach all soiled surfaces for

best results.

Utensil load

•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 and

silverware basket.

NOTES:

•Do not load glasses, cups, or plastic items

in the bottom rack.

•Do not load items between the bottom

rack and the dishwasher tub. This can

block the water inlet opening.

•If you have removed the bottom rack for

unloading or cleaning, replace it with

bumpers in front.

Do not cover spray tower

Mixed load

Utensil load

LOADING YOUR DISHWASHER

Bumpers must face dishwasher door

8051220 v15 (c41) 7/1/98 9:08 AM Page 8

Loading the top rack

Load the top rack with cups, glasses, and

smaller items. Do not cover the third level

wash when loading the top rack.

Cup and glass load

•Load so open ends face down for clean-

ing and draining.

•Load glasses in top rack only – bottom

rack is not designed for glasses. Damage

can occur.

•Place items in the rows between prongs.

Placing them over the prongs can lead

to breakage.

•Secure lightweight items.

•China, crystal, and other delicate items

must not touch each other during dish-

washer operation. Damage can occur.

Mixed load

•Small bowls, pans, and other utensils can

be placed in the top rack.

•Load plastic items in the top rack only.

Plastic items can melt in the bottom rack.

•Wash only plastic items marked “dish-

washer safe.”

•Load plastic items so the force of the

spray does not move them during the

cycle.

•Use automatic dishwashing detergent

only. Other detergents are too mild and

much too sudsy.

• Add detergent just before starting cycle.

• Store tightly closed detergent in a cool, dry

place. Fresh automatic dishwasher

detergent results in better cleaning.

Using the Dispensers

Using the detergent dispenser

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.

• Find out your water’s hardness by asking your local water department, water softener

company, or county extension agent.

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.

Filling the detergent dispenser

The detergent dispenser has one section

with a cover and one without. Push the

cover down firmly until it latches. Detergent

in the open section falls into the dishwasher

when closing the door. The covered section

opens automatically for the main wash. It is

normal for the cover to open partially when

dispensing detergent.

NOTE: Use both sections for cycles with

two washes. Use only the covered section

for cycles with one wash. See the cycles

chart for more details.

AMOUNT OF DETERGENT

For normal loads:

• Partially fill the Main Wash section (2 tablespoons or 30 grams)

• Fill the Pre-Wash section (2 tablespoons or 30 grams)

NOTE: Add only 1 tablespoon or 15 grams of detergent to the

Pre-Wash section if dishes are prerinsed or water is very soft.

For heavily soiled loads:

• Fill the Main Wash section (3 tablespoons or 45 grams)

• Fill the Pre-Wash section (2 tablespoons or 30 grams)

For normal and heavily soiled loads:

• Fill the Main Wash section (3 tablespoons or 45 grams)

• Fill the Pre-Wash section (2 tablespoons or 30 grams)
