POWR 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 particle&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 betore

putting them Into the dishwasher. Just remove

large pieces, bones, and other hard items. The

POWER CLEAN* Module will remove food parti-

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, crunching or

buzzing sounds, Those sounds are normal when

hard items enter the module. DO NOT LET

METALLIC ITEMS (I.E. POT HANDLE SCREWS)

GET INTO THE POWER CLEAN* MODULE. THIS

COULD RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE POWER

CLEAN’ MODULE.

Check Water

Temperature

Water must be hot

For best cleaning and drylng resutts, water should be at

least

440°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.

Quiet operating tips

To avoid thumping and clattering noises during

operation:

Make sure lightweight load items are secured

in the rack.

Make sure pot lids and handles, pizza pans,

cookie sheets, etc. do not touch interior walls

or interfere with either of the spray arms

rotation.

Load dishes so they don’t touch one another.

NOTE: Keep sink dmin plugs inserted during

dlshwasher operation to prevent noise

Proper loading

Always load dishes so soiled surfaces are reached by spray from rotating spray arms.

Water must be able to drain off completely for best drying results. Be careful to separate

items so spray can reach all surfaces.

Top rack loading

and smaller items.

Place so open ends face down for clean-

ing and draining.

load glasses in top rack only. Bottom

rack is not designed for glasses. Damage

Placing them over the prongs can lead

to breakage.

Be sure lightweight items are held firmly

in place.

China, crystal and other delicate items

Bottom rack loading

m\ \

DISH LOAD

Make sure pot handles and other 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.

. Load cookie sheets, cake pans and other

large items at sides and back. Loading

such items in front may keep water spray

prongs and facing the spray.

Silverware basket loading

should be in the center front of the bottom

rack.

NB YES

’ ‘,.

Load forks and spoons so they don’t nest

together, Spray can’t reach nested items.

Mix items in each section of the baskets

with some pointing up and some down.

Small items- baby bottle caps, jar lids,

etc. - can be put in any section.

Make sure sharp items [knives, forks,

skewers, etc.) are put in pointing down.

Make sure long items do not stop the upper

spray arm from turning.

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 automatic dlsh-

washer detergent only.

The detergent dispenser

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 automatic

dishwasher detergent

is necessary for best

washing results. Store

detergent tightly in a

cool dry place.

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 11 \

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. 1

How much detergent to use

The amount of detergent to use

depends on the hardness of your

water. Iftoo llttle is used, dishes won’t

be clean. However, if too much is

used in soft water, glassware will

begin to etch.

Find out your water’s hardness by

asking your local water depart-

ment, water softener company or

county extension agent.

HARD - Fill 1 or both sections to top

line if water is 8 or more grains of

hardness.

MEDIUM - Fill 1 or both sections to

middle line if water is 5 to 7 grains of

hardness.

SOFT - Fill 1 or both sections to

bottom line if water is 0 to 4 grains of

hardness.

Energy sating tips

You can help save energy if you:

1. Wash full loads. Running a half-filled dish-

washer uses the same amount of electricity

and hot water as a fully loaded machine.

3. Air dry dishes when you don’t need a rapid

drying cycle. Allow longer *drying times

(overnight).

2. Use the LOW ENERGY NORMAL cycle for nor-

mally soiled loads. It uses less hot water and

energy than DUAL WASH or PRE-WASH

NORMAL.

load correctly for best washing results. In-

correct loading may cause poor washing

and the need to rewash all or part of the

load.

Don’t pre-rinse normally soiled dishes. Se-

lect the correct cycle for the load and use

the recommended amount of detergent for

good washing results without hand rinsing.

Use your dishwasher during off-peak hours.

Local utilities recommend this to avoid

heavy usage of energy at certain

times

day.

Kitchen cleanup can be done quickly and

efficiently through the use of your dishwasher.

Most appliance parts that can fit in the dish-

washer can be cleaned by it. Burned-on soil,

however, should be cleaned by hand.
