Using the dishwasher.

Check the Water Temperature

The entering water should be at least 120°F (49°C) and not more than 150°F (66°C) for effective cleaning and to prevent dish damage. Check the water temperature with a candy or meat thermometer. Turn on the hot water faucet

nearest the dishwasher, place the thermometer in a glass and let the water run continuously into the glass until the temperature stops rising.

Energy Smart

Energy Smart enables your dishwasher to reduce energy consumption during periods of high energy costs. If you are in an area where your electricity provider charges variable rates at different times of the day, your dishwasher will inform you of those times when you are paying the highest rate. You can then either delay starting your dishwasher until the rate goes down; or you can override the feature and run your dishwasher at your convenience.

What you will need:

1 Smart Meter that will communicate with your dishwasher. Consult your local electricity provider to determine if the technology is available in your area.

2 An Energy Smart dishwasher model (GDF520, GDF540, GDT530 or GDT550).

3 An Appliance Communication Module (ACM). Please visit, gebrillion.com to order the communication device that will need to be installed in the dishwasher.

Use a Rinse Agent such as Cascade® Rinse Aid™

Rinse agents, such as Cascade® Rinse Aid™ are designed for great drying action and protect against spots and film build-up on your dishes, glasses, flatware, cookware, and plastic.

Filling the Dispenser

The amount of rinse agent released into the final wash can be adjusted. The factory setting is at the midpoint. If hard water spots appear on dishes, try a higher setting. If you see foam in the dishwasher, move the indicator to a lower setting.

increase the amount of rinse agent, counterclockwise to reduce the amount of rinse agent.
