Energy saving tips

You can help save energy if you:

1. Wash full loads. Running a half-filled dish- washer uses the same amount of electricity and hot water as a fully loaded machine.

2. Use the Light Wash Cycle for moderately soiled loads. It uses less hot water and energy than the Normal Wash Cycle.

3. Air dry dishes when you don’t need a rapid drying cycle. Allow longer drying times (over- night). Use a rinse agent to improve drying.

4. Load correctly for best washing results. Incorrect loading may cause poor washing and the need to rewash all or part of the load.

5. Do not pre-rinse normally soiled dishes. Select the correct cycle for the load and use the recommended amount of detergent for good washing results without hand rinsing.

6. Use your dishwasher during off-peak hours. Local utilities recommend thts to avoid heavy usage of energy at certain trmes of day.

Dishwasher care & cleaning

Exterior - Regular use of a soft, damp cloth or sponge and a mild detergent is all that is neces- sary, in most cases, to keep the outside of your dishwasher nice looking and clean.

Interior - Hard water minerals may cause a white film to build-up on the inside surfaces, especially just beneath the door area. To clean dishwasher interior:

1. Apply powdered dishwasher detergent to a damp sponge to make a paste.

OR

2. Use liquid automatic dishwasher detergent and clean with damp sponge.

Wear rubber gloves. Do not use any type of cleanser other than automatic dishwasher de- tergent because it may cause foaming or sudsing.

Filter Screen -The filter system requires periodic cleaning as needed. To clean screen:

Personal Injury Hazard

Wait at least 20 minutes after a cycle for the heating element to cool down. Failure to do so can result in burn injuries.

1. Unload and slide bottom rack forward. (Remove bottom rack if necessary to reach filter screen.)

2. Remove collected particles from the screen with your fingers or paper towel.

3. Return bottom rack to original position.
