Dishwasher Features
Your dishwasher, illustrated below, cleans by spraying a mixture of hot, clean water, and detergent against
the soiled surfaces of your dishes and tableware. Each cycle starts with a pre-drain. Next, the dishwasher
fills with water to a level even with the heating element. This water is constantly pumped through the rotating
spray arm and center wash tower and sprayed onto the dishes. Soiled water is pumped out and replaced
with clean water during a cycle. The number of water fills depends upon the cycle being used.

Operating Instructions continued
Dish Preparation Loading the Top Rack
It is not necessary to rinse dishes before putting
them into the dishwasher. Just remove large
pieces and quantities of food, bones, pits, etc.
Empty glasses and cups. It may be necessary to
presoak or lightly scour firmly cooked-on or
baked-on foods.
Foods such as mustard, mayonnaise, vinegar,
lemon juice and tomato-based products may
cause discoloration of stainless steel and plastics
if allowed to sit for a long period of time. Unless the
dishwasher is to be operated at once, it is best to
rinse off these food soils.
Glasses and cups—Place glasses and
cups against outside pins at an angle. Cups with a
concave bottom will collect water.
Small plates and saucers—Place
dishes between middle two rows of pins.
Plasticware—Load plasticware in the top rack
to avoid melting.
Bowls—Place bowls between the middle 2 rows
of pins facing down.
Miscellaneous items—Place long handled
knives and utensils in top rack.
• Load dishes facing the center of the rack so that
the water spray from the rotating spray arm and
center wash tower can reach soiled surfaces.
Cup Shelf—The cup shelf can be folded down
over short items (juice glasses, cups, etc.) for
more loading space. When using cup shelf,
alternate items with layer below so that water can
reach all inside surfaces.
• Be sure large items do not block the detergent
dispenser, preventing it from opening during the
wash cycle.
• To be sure an item is dishwasher safe, read the
manufacturer’s care instructions.
• If the dishwasher drains into a food disposer, be
sure disposer is completely empty before
dishwasher is started.
• To save energy, wash full loads.
• For best washing results, load correctly and
avoid overloading.

bottom of rack, blocking wash arm rotation. Load
large items at the sides and not across the front so
they do not block the detergent dispenser
preventing it from opening.
DO NOT block the center area of the lower
rack when loading. Because the center wash
tower extends through this area, blockage
may result in poor cleaning.
Adding a Dish
1. Make sure there is a full wash cycle yet to be
completed so that any added items are
thoroughly washed and rinsed.
2. Unlatch door and wait for water action to stop.
3. Open door and add dish.
4. Firmly close door to latch and resume cycle.

Factors Affecting Performance
Rinse Aid
Water Pressure
Water pressure should be between 20 and 120
pounds per square inch. Low water pressure
occurs most often during periods of high water
consumption, such as when laundry or showers
are being done. To determine if you have enough
water pressure, put a 2 quart container under fully
opened hot water faucet nearest the dishwasher. It
should fill in less than 14 seconds. Be sure all
other faucets are turned off during test.
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.
Water Temperature
Hot water is needed for best dishwashing and
drying results. Water entering dishwasher should
be at least 120°F (49°C) to give satisfactory
results.
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.
To check water temperature entering dishwasher:
Do not overfill since this can cause oversudsing.
Wipe up any spills with a damp cloth.
• Turn on hot water faucet nearest dishwasher for
several minutes to clear cool water from pipes.
The dispenser holds enough for 35 to 140 washes,
depending on setting.
• 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
thermostat setting.

Care and Cleaning
Care of Drain Air Gap
If a drain air gap was installed for your built-in
dishwasher, check to make sure it is clean so the
dishwasher will drain properly. Drain air gaps are
usually mounted on countertop and can be
inspected by removing the cover. A drain air gap is
not part of your dishwasher and is not covered by
this warranty.

When loading, invert cups and bowls so that water
can run off. Avoid nesting of articles. If dishes are
not completely dry at end of cycle (which may
occur when COOL DRY setting is used), open
door, roll out racks, and allow dishes to air dry.
Coffee and tea stains can occur when
water contains traces of iron. To avoid stains, rinse
cups out immediately after use. Increase amount of
detergent and use a rinse aid. Water temperature
should be approximately 140°F (60°C). If problem
persists, install a water softener with an iron
removal unit. To remove stains, hand wash cups in
solution of 1/2 cup (120 ml) bleach and a quart
(1 L) of warm water. Rinse thoroughly.
Spotting—Spots form when hard water
droplets evaporate leaving a deposit. Low
phosphate detergents increase the problem in hard
water. To prevent, use hot water and a detergent
with a higher level of phosphates (preferably 8.7%
or higher), or use more of a low phosphate
detergent. Be sure to use a rinse aid. If water is
very hard, it may be necessary to install a water
softener. Load glasses and plates so they have
minimum contact with racks and pins. Avoid
overloading. Spotting will occur where dishes and
glasses touch.
Gray-black stains on dishes are caused
by manganese in water supply. To correct, install a
manganese filtering system into house water
supply.
Reddish-brown stains on dishes,

This film cannot be removed. It is more likely to
occur on soft leaded glass or expensive crystal.
An early warning of this condition is a cloudy
iridescent appearance on glasses. To prevent, be
sure dishwasher is getting a full fill of water. Water
should reach base of heating element. If water
level is low, have water pressure checked by a
plumber. Use less detergent and make sure water
temperature is not higher than 150°F (66°C).

contact with air or with foods containing sulphur
like eggs, mayonnaise, or seafood. Contact with
undissolved detergent can also cause tarnish. To
prevent this, rinse silver soon after use. Use care
not to pour detergent directly onto silver. Remove
tarnish with a silver polish.
Operating problems?
Be sure door is firmly closed. It is normal for
dishwasher to pause between cycles.
Discoloration of stainless steel—Food
soil can create a film or discoloration. To avoid,
Leaking?
rinse stainless items promptly. Food soil films can
be removed with a stainless steel cleanser or mild
cleanser. Rinse thoroughly.
Check for items sticking out of dishwasher that
could prevent door from closing and sealing
properly. Use only fresh dishwashing detergent to
avoid oversudsing.
Pitting of stainless steel is caused by

prolonged contact with detergent granules and
foods like salt, mayonnaise, fruits, butter or milk.
To prevent, rinse soon after use. Do not allow
detergent to fall directly onto stainless steel items.
Discoloration of aluminum—Anodized
Dishes not dry?
(colored) aluminum cannot withstand machine
washing. Resulting loss of color is permanent.
Other aluminum may darken when machine
washed. To decrease chance of discoloration, do
not place aluminum directly beneath detergent
dispenser. To brighten darkened items, scour with
soap filled steel wool pads. For severely darkened
pans, simmer an acidic food or a solution of
2 teaspoons (10 ml) cream of tartar per quart
(1 L) of water for 1/2 hour. Scour with soap filled
steel wool pad, rinse and dry.
Check to see if rinse aid dispenser needs refilling.
Hot water temperature may be too low (min. 120°F
49°C). If COOL DRY option is being used,
additional drying time may be required with door
open.
Water in tub?
A small amount of water in bottom of tub is normal.
