• Read all instructions before using your dishwasher. • Use your dishwasher only as instructed in this Use and Care Manual. • This Manual does not cover every possible condition and situation that may occur. Use common sense and caution when installing, operating and maintaining any appliance.
Dishwasher Features Your dishwasher cleans by spraying a mixture of hot water and detergent through the spray arms against soiled surfaces. Each cycle begins with a pre-drain. Next, the dishwasher fills with water covering the filter area. Water is then pumped through the filter and spray arms. Soil particles go down the drain as the water is pumped out and replaced with clean water.
6. Select desired OPTIONS (See Energy Options). The indicator light above the pad will glow when selected. 7. Run hot water faucet nearest dishwasher until water is hot. Turn water off. 8. To start, press START/CANCEL pad. Note: The dishwasher is programmed to remember your last cycle so you do not have to reset each time.
Operating Instructions The Smart Sensor checks the soil level on your dishes in the Pots Pan, Normal and Light Wash (Both Racks) cycles. Depending on soil level, the sensor will determine if additional water fills are needed to clean the dishes or if water fills can be deleted. Cycle time and water usage will vary based on the amount of soil on the dishes.
Delay Start The DELAY START option allows you to delay starting your dishwasher up to 9 hours or up to 6 hours (some models). Press the DELAY START pad until the desired delay time shows in the STATUS window.
Child Lock Controls To prevent children from accidently changing the dishwasher cycle or starting the dishwasher, lock the dishwasher controls by pressing and releasing the POWER DRY OFF/NO HEAT DRY pad, then pressing and holding the POWER DRY OFF/NO HEAT DRY pad for 5 seconds.
Open completely for those hard to fit items such as coffee pots, food processors, etc. As you load your dishwasher, you will find many other ways to use this unique feature. (continued)

Preparing and Loading Dishes Upper Rack Option LIGHT WASH—UPPER RACK option can be used to wash a wide assortment of items when you don't have a full load. Also, when the upper rack fills up with glasses and the lower rack is still empty, you don't have to wait anymore for clean glasses.
Preparing and Loading Dishes Loading the Bottom Rack Features and appearance of racks and silverware basket may vary from your model. The lower rack is best for plates, saucers, bowls, and cookware. Large items should be placed along the edge so they do not block the spray arm rotation.
• Unlatch door and wait a few seconds until wash action stops before opening. • Add the item and wait a few seconds to allow cold air to slowly expand inside dishwasher. • Close door firmly to latch and resume cycle.
As a rule, use 1 teaspoon for each grain above 12. Unlatch the door, open slowly and add detergent to the bottom of the tub. Close the door to latch and the dishwasher will continue through the cycle.
Adjustable setting Dispenser Cap (continued) Water Pressure The hot water line to dishwasher must provide water pressure between 20 and 120 psi. Low water pressure may occur when laundry or showers are in operation. Wait until water use is reduced before starting dishwasher.
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. A drain air gap is usually mounted on countertop and can be inspected by removing the cover.
Before calling for service, review this list. It may save you both time and expense. This list includes common experiences that are not the result of defective workmanship or material in your dishwasher. Food Soils Left on Dishes • Choose another cycle for longer washing time.
This is normal since each spray arm has its own sound. • It is normal for dishwasher to pause (no sound) when the wash action is switching between the lower and middle spray arms.
To customize your dishwasher to match your cabinets: • You will need a trim kit. • See Step 10 of Installation Instructions that came with your dishwasher for more information. Removing Spots and Film Hard water can cause lime deposit buildup on the interior of the dishwasher.
