START

RESUME

Conserve water and energy and save time over hand rinsing by running 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.

Place items so open ends face down for best cleaning and draining.

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.

The top rack is designed for cups, glasses, and smaller items. Many items, up to 11" (28 cm), fit in the top rack. (See recommended loading patterns shown.)

NOTE: The features on your dishwasher rack may vary from the drawings shown.

DISHWASHER LOADING

Remove leftover food, bones, toothpicks and other hard items from the dishes. To conserve water and energy and save time, it is not necessary to rinse dishes before putting them into the dishwasher.

NOTE: Dishes soiled with tomato-based products should be prerinsed to avoid staining.

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 eggshells 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.

For best drying, water must be able to drain from all surfaces.

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

Load dishes so they are not stacked or overlapping if possible.

Use special care when loading heavy pots and pans. Heavy items can damage the interior of the door if they are dropped or bumped.

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

Place items so open ends face down for cleaning and draining.

Load glasses in top rack only. The bottom rack is not designed for glasses. Damage can occur.

Place cups and glasses in the rows between tines. Placing them over the tines can lead to breakage and water spots.

China, crystal, and other delicate items must not touch each other during dishwasher operation. Damage may occur.

Load lightweight plastic items in the top rack only. Only plastic items marked "dishwasher safe" are recommended.
