Loading Your Dishwasher

This section tells how to properly load your dishwasher for best washing and rinsing results.

Preparing to load the

l To save water and energy, do not rinse dishes before putting them into the dishwasher.

lRemove large pieces of food, bones, and other hard items. The POWER CLEANTM module removes food particles from the water. The module contains a chopping device which reduces the size of food items.

NOTE: 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 (such as pot handle screws) get into the POWER CLEAN module. Damage can occur.

l Foods like eggs, rice, pasta, and cooked cereals may be hard to remove if left to dry over a period of time. Run a RINSE/WASH LATER cycle to keep dishes moist if you do not plan to wash them soon.

l Load dishes so soiled surfaces face the rotating spray arm.

l Load dishes so they are not stacked or overlapping. It is important for the water spray to reach all soiled surfaces for best washing. For best drying, water must be able to drain from all surfaces.

Loading for quiet operation

l Secure lightweight load items in the racks.

l Pot lids and handles, pizza pans, cookie sheets, etc., should not touch interior walls, interfere with the spray arm’s rotation, or cover the spray tower.

l Load dishes so they do not touch one another.

NOTE: Keep sink drain plugs inserted during dishwasher operation to prevent noise transfer through drains.

Loading the cutlery basket

Use the cutlery basket to hold long items. Always unload or remove the cutlery basket before unloading the racks to avoid spilling water on the cutlery.

IMPORTANT: Remove the basket and tip the contents onto a cutting board to unload. This helps avoid accidents with sharp points and edges.

1.Grasp the basket on both sides and slide it toward the top of the door.

2.Lift the basket off the holding buttons.

To replace the cutlery basket:

1.Set the basket on the holding buttons.

2.Slide the basket toward the bottom of the door until it locks into place.

The Whirlpool 960 Series washer and dryer are engineered with cutting-edge technologies designed to enhance laundry care while providing maximum efficiency and performance. With its sleek design and user-friendly interface, this series caters to modern households seeking reliable yet innovative laundry solutions.

One of the standout features of the Whirlpool 960 Series is its advanced Smart Boost technology. This innovative feature pre-mixes detergent and water before the washing cycle, ensuring thorough cleaning while minimizing the amount of detergent needed. This not only optimizes cleaning efficiency but also helps protect fabrics over time.

The 960 Series also includes the Load & Go dispenser, which allows users to add a single load's worth of detergent for up to 20 loads at a time. This convenience eliminates the need for frequent refilling, saving time and effort during laundry days. Additionally, the Adaptive Wash technology automatically senses the load size and adjusts water levels accordingly, ensuring optimal wash conditions for every load, regardless of size.

Another notable characteristic of the Whirlpool 960 Series is its Quiet Wash sound package, enabling a peaceful laundry experience. Noise-reduction technology ensures that the washer operates quietly, making it ideal for homes where laundry is done at all hours. The dryer in this series is equally impressive, featuring a variety of drying options, including an EcoBoost setting that uses less energy while delivering effective results.

Connectivity is another highlight of the Whirlpool 960 Series. Equipped with Wi-Fi connectivity, users can monitor and control their washer and dryer remotely via the Whirlpool app. This includes starting, pausing, or canceling cycles, as well as receiving notifications when loads are complete. This smart technology enhances accessibility and streamlines the laundry process.

Energy efficiency is a key consideration in the Whirlpool 960 Series design. Both the washer and dryer carry ENERGY STAR certification, which signifies that they meet strict energy efficiency guidelines set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. This not only contributes to lower utility bills but also reflects a commitment to environmental sustainability.

In summary, the Whirlpool 960 Series stands out for its combination of advanced technology, user-friendly features, and efficiency. With Smart Boost, Load & Go dispenser, Quiet Wash technology, and connectivity options, this series is tailored to meet the evolving needs of today's households, making laundry a seamless part of everyday life.
