Wash System

Your Kenmore dishwasher filters 100% of the water

for optimum cleaning. The wash system uses alternating arms to save water and energy and includes a heavy-duty stainless steel food disposer that grinds up large food particles.

How the wash system works

1.Load the dishwasher (See Preparing and Loading Dishes).

2.Hot water enters the dishwasher and covers the filter.

3.Detergent is dispensed at the appropriate time and mixed with the hot water. This mixture is pumped through the lower spray arm and sprays against the soiled surfaces of the dishes to remove food particles.

4.Water passes through the fine mesh primary filter where food soil is removed and the clean water is then recirculated.

5.Ports under the lower wash arm direct the food soil through a secondary filter into a collection chamber.

6.Food soil is held in the collection chamber until it is flushed away during the drain cycle.

7.Clean, hot water enters the dishwasher and the sequence is repeated.

8.Beginning with the third water fill, the wash action switches between the lower spray arm and middle spray arm in 90 second intervals. You may notice a change in sound as the wash action pauses and switches to the other arm.

9.The dishwasher may pause during the cycle while water is being heated. Wash action will continue during this time.

10.Rinse aid is automatically dispensed in the final rinse to aid in drying.

The Kenmore 587.14202 and 587.14209 are two top-tier models in Kenmore's impressive lineup of dishwashers, known for their high efficiency, reliability, and user-friendly features. These dishwashers are designed to cater to a variety of household needs, making them ideal for families or individuals who prioritize cleanliness and convenience in their kitchen routines.

One of the standout features of the Kenmore 587 models is their SmartWash technology. This innovative system uses dual clean sensors to detect the level of soil on the dishes, adjusting the cycle duration and intensity accordingly. This not only ensures optimal cleaning performance but also conserves water and energy, making it a more eco-friendly choice.

Another notable characteristic is the Ultra Wash system, which provides exceptional cleaning power through its multi-level spray arms. These spray arms create a powerful cascade of water that reaches even the most stubborn residue on pots, pans, and dishes. This technology guarantees a thorough clean, reducing the need for pre-rinsing.

The interior design of the 587 models is another highlight. With a spacious tub, these dishwashers can easily accommodate large loads, featuring adjustable racks and fold-down tines that offer flexible loading options for various types of dishware. This adaptability is crucial for families that frequently wash everything from delicate glassware to heavy-duty cookware.

Noise levels are a significant concern for many homeowners, and the Kenmore 587 series addresses this with its quiet operation. The models boast a sound rating of around 48 dBA, which is quieter than a typical conversation. This reduced noise level allows for a more pleasant kitchen environment, even when the dishwasher is running.

In addition, both models come equipped with a variety of wash cycles, including heavy, normal, and eco settings. The eco setting is particularly valuable for those looking to minimize their environmental impact while still achieving thorough cleaning results.

Lastly, the sleek design and stainless-steel finish add an elegant touch to any kitchen decor. With easy-to-use controls and a digital display, these dishwashers provide a seamless user experience.

In summary, the Kenmore 587.14202 and 587.14209 combine smart cleaning technology, efficient operation, and user-friendly features, making them excellent choices for anyone seeking an effective and stylish dishwasher solution.
