Operating Tips

Before You Start

Don’t prerinse. Simply scrape off any bones or large food particles.

If connected to a food waste disposer, make certain the disposer is empty before starting the dishwasher.

Scrape off tomato-based food soils (see page 7).

Remove certain foods such as mustard, mayonnaise, lemon juice, vinegar, salt or dressings from stainless steel flatware as soon as possible. These foods may cause rusting and pitting if allowed to remain in contact with the surface for an extended period of time.

Operating the Dishwasher

1.After loading the dishwasher and adding detergent, select the desired cycle by pressing the cycle select pad until the light next to the desired cycle is illuminated. Choose the desired options by pressing the pads. The indicator lights for the selected cycle and options will illuminate. To cancel an option press the pad again.

2.To start a cycle, close the door until it latches then press the START/Cancel pad once. After a pause, the fill will begin. The display countdown (select models) will flash until START/Cancel is pressed.

Note

If START/Cancel is not pressed within 30 seconds of choosing your cycle, the dishwasher will turn off.

The dishwasher remembers your last cycle so you do not have to reset the cycle each time. To start the dishwasher using the same cycle and options selected on the previous wash, just press the START/Cancel pad.

3.To cancel a running cycle, press the START/Cancel pad once. The dishwasher will drain, then shut off. To turn the dishwasher off without draining, press the START/Cancel pad twice. To prevent unplanned cycle or option changes, these selections are “locked in” after 1 minute.

Note

If the cycle select pad is pressed after the controls have been “locked in”, the light above the current cycle will flash three times.

Adding a Forgotten Item

For best cleaning, the forgotten item should be added early in the cycle.

1.Grasp door handle and unlatch door without opening completely. All lights will flash to indicate that the cycle is suspended.

2.Wait for the water circulation to stop.

3.Open the door and add the item.

4.Close and latch the door. Lights will stop flashing when the door is properly shut. After a slight delay, the cycle resumes automatically at the point of interruption.

Notes

If the door is opened during a running cycle, there may be up to a 30 second delay before the dishwasher restarts after closing the door.

Extended interruption of the wash cycle is not recommended.

General Recommendations

(Rack features vary by model)

Items can be centered behind a single tine or loaded at an angle to maximize space.

Avoid blocking or preventing the spray arms from spinning freely. Do not allow items to extend beyond the racks.

Face soiled surfaces toward the center of the dishwasher.

For best dishwashing results follow these guidelines to determine the best arrangement for your items.
