Using the Faucet

You can draw water from the faucet while the dishwasher is connected.

NOTE: Do not draw water while the dishwasher is filling or while water is being pumped out. (This helps prevent a low fill when dishwasher is filling or mixing drain water with fresh water when dishwasher is draining.)

Press the red button on the hose connector to draw water from the faucet. (The faucet is set on hot. Adjust the faucet for the water temperature you want.)

NOTE: Turn the hot water back on after you draw water from the faucet. Turn off the cold water.

DISHWASHER LOADING

Loading Suggestions

■Remove leftover food, bones, toothpicks and other hard items from the dishes. It is not necessary to rinse the dishes before putting them into the dishwasher. The wash module removes food particles from the water. The module contains a chopping device which will reduce the size of food items.

NOTE: If hard items such as fruit seeds, nuts, and egg shells enter the wash module, you might hear chopping, grinding, crunching, or buzzing sounds. These sounds are normal when hard items enter the module. Do not let metallic items (such as pot handle screws) get into the wash module. Damage can occur.

■It is important for the water spray to reach all soiled surfaces.

■Load dishes so they are not stacked or overlapping, if possible. For best drying, water must be able to drain from all surfaces.

■Make sure pot lids and handles, pizza pans, cookie sheets, etc., do not interfere with the spray arm rotation.

■Run a rinse cycle to keep dishes moist if you do not plan to wash them soon. Foods such as eggs, rice, pasta, spinach, and cooked cereals may be hard to remove if they are left to dry over a period of time.

Quiet operating tips

To avoid thumping/clattering noises during operation:

■Make sure lightweight load items are secured in the racks.

■Make sure pot lids and handles, pizza pans, cookie sheets, etc., do not touch interior walls or interfere with the rotation of the spray arm.

■Load dishes so they do not touch one another.

NOTE: For built-in models, keep sink drain plugs closed during dishwasher operation to prevent noise transfer through drains.
