POWER CLEAN* Washing System

Your dishwasher cleans by spraying a mixture of hot, clean water and detergent

against soiled surfaces of dishes, When a cycle is started, the dishwasher fills with Water

to about the level of the heating element. This water is pumped through the rotating

spray arm&through the POWER CLEAN Module which removes food particles, and back

through the rotating spray arms, Soiled water is pumped out and replaced with clean

water during a cycle - the number of times depends on the cycle being used.

The POWER CLEAN* Module removes food

particles from the water, stores them, then

washes them down the drain.

Load dishes so soiled surfaces face pow-

erful spray from rotating arms.

Step-saving preparation for washing

It is not necessary

to rinse dishes before

putting them into the

dishwasher. Just re-

move large pieces,

bones, and other hard

items. The POWER

CLEAN Module will

remove food parti-

Water must be hot

cles from the water. It contains a chopping de-

vice which will reduce the size of food items.

If hard items such as fruit seeds, nuts and

egg shells enter the POWER CLEAN Module,

you might hear chopping, grinding, crunch-

ing or buzzing sounds. Those sounds are nor-

mal when hard items enter the module. DO

NOT LET METALLIC ITEMS GET INTO THE POWER

CLEAN MODULE.

For best cleaning and drying resutts, water should be al least

140°F (60°C).

1. Turn on hot water faucet nearest the dishwasher. Let water run

until it is as hot as possible.

2. Hold a candy or meatthermometer in the stream of hot water

to measure the temperature.

3. If the temperature is too low, have a qualified person raise

the water heater thermostat setting.

items so spray can reach all surfaces.

and smaller items.

do not stop rotation of either the upper or

lower spray arm. Spray arms must move

freely.

Securely place heavily soiled cookware

face down in rack.

, UTENSIL LOAD

Make sure sharp items (knives, forks,

skewers, etc.) are put in point down. Make

sure long items do not stop the upper

Adding detergent

The kind and amount of dishwasher detergent you use is an important part of

getting your dishes clean. Read this section carefully.

Use auiomatlc dlsh-

washer detergent only.

Other detergents are

too mild and much too

sudsy to work in the

dishwasher.

Different brands of

dishwasher detergent

have different amounts

of phosphorus. Phospho-

rus softens water and

helps prevent water

spots on dishes.

If water is hard and

phosphorus content is

low (8.7% or less), you

may need to use more

detergent or use a

brand with a higher

phosphorus content

(12% or higher).

Do not add detergent

Until you are ready to

wash. Fresh, dry deter-

gent is necessary for

best washing results.

Store detergent tightly in

a cool, dry place.

The detergent dispenser

The detergent dispenser has one section with

a cover and one without.

Put detergent in both sections for cycles with

two washes.

Put detergent in the covered section only for

cycles with one wash.

Push the cover down

until it is latched.

The cover opens auto-

matically when the main

wash starts. Detergent in

the open section falls

into the dishwasher

when the door is closed.

The amount of detergent to use

depends on the hardness of your

water. Iftoo little is used, dishes won’t

be clean. However, if too much is

used in soft water, glassware will

begin to etch.

Find out your waters hardness by

asking your local water depart-

ment, water softener company or

county extension agent.

HARD -Fill 1 or both sections to top

MEDIUM-Fill 1 or both sections to

middle line if water is 5 to 7 grains of

SOFT-Fill one or both sections to

bottom line if water is 0 to 4 grains of

hardness.
