QUICK START
1LOAD THE DISHES
Scrape the dishes free of excess food, bones, and any other hard,
Pull each rack out and load the dishes as described on pages 13 and 14.
2MEASURE THE DETERGENT
Using the guidelines on page 16, fill the detergent cup with the recommended amount of detergent and close the lid. If a prewash is desired, the recess on top of the lid should also be filled with detergent.
3TURN ON THE DISHWASHER
To start the cycle, open the door and press the Power button. The control will default to the Normal cyccle.
4CHECK THE RINSE AID
The Rinse Aid indicator light will illuminate if the level of rinse aid in the dishwasher is low. Add rinse aid if the level is low to maintain the effectiveness of the dry cycle.
5SELECT THE CYCLE AND OPTIONS
Select the cycle and options that best fit the load by referring to the chart on page 11. The display will show the estimated time for the cycle and options selected.
6CLOSE THE DOOR
The dishwasher will start automatically, after a slight delay, when the door is closed and latched. During the cycle, the display will indicate the estimated time remaining for the cycle and options selected. If the door is opened during the cycle, the dishwasher will stop. When the door is closed, the cycle will resume from the point where it was stopped.
7END OF CYCLE
When the cycle is completed, a chime will sound and the display will show “END.” After a short time, the display and controls will shut off for safety and energy conservation.
CAUTION
Empty the lower rack first and then the upper rack. This will avoid water dripping from the upper rack onto dishes in the lower rack.
AUTO-OFF
The dishwasher will automatically turn off if a cycle is not selected or if the door is not closed within 10 minutes.
WARNING
In general, it is not advisable to open the door while the dishwasher is in operation. If the door is opened, a safety device stops the dishwasher. Care should be taken when opening the door immediately following the cycle, as steam may escape.
NOTE :
If small hard items such as bones, nut shells or plastic or glass pieces get into the pump, they can cause a grinding noise as the soft food disposer in the dishwasher attempts to grind up these hard objects. Some objects that might get into the pump could eventually be ground up and drained away. However, if a grinding noise is heard and it does not go away, call for service to have the objects removed from the pump. Some objects such as pieces of glass could cause damage to the pump if not removed promptly.
