POWER CLEAN”’ Washing System

Your dishwasher cleans by sprayrng a mixture of hot, clean water and detergent against soiled surfaces of dishes. When a cycle is started, the dishwasher fills with water to about the level of the heating element. This water is pumped through the rotating

spray arms, through the POWER CLEAN Module which removes food particlesand back through the rotating spray arms. Soiled water is pumped out and replaced with clean water during a cycle - the number of times depends on the cycle being used.

The POWER CLEAN- Module removes food

particles from the water, stores them, then washes them down the drain.

Load dishes so soiled surfaces face pow- erful spray from rotating arms.

Step-saving preparation for washing

It is not necessary to rinse dishes before putting them into the

dishwasher. Just re- move large pieces, bones, and other hard items. The POWER CLEAN Module will remove food parti-

cles from the water. It contains a chopping de- vice which will reduce the size of food items.

If hard items such as fruit seeds, nuts and egg shells enter the POWER CLEAN Module,

you might hear chopping, grinding, crunch- ing or buzzing sounds. Those sounds are nor- mal when hard items enter the module. DO NOT LET METALLIC ITEMS GET INTO THE POWER CLEAN MODULE.
