POWER CLEAN* Washing System

POWER CLEAN* Washing System

Your dishwasher cleans by spraying 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 dlshwasher. Just remove 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, crunching or buzzing sounds. Those sounds are normal when hard items enter the module. DO NOT LET METALLIC ITEMS (I.E. POT HANDLE SCREWS) GET INTO THE POWER CLEAN’ MODULE. THIS COULD RESULT IN DAMAGE TO THE POWER CLEAN* MODULE.

Hot water is a must

Hot water dissolves and activates the dish- washing detergent. Hot water dissolves grease

on dishes and helps dry glassesspot-free. Make certain loads are washed in hot water [at least 140°F - 60°C). Two ways to have a reliable hot water supply...

I. Maintain 140°F water supply at central water heater. To check water temperature, turn on hot water faucet nearest the dishwasher. Let water run until it is as hot as possible, then check with a candy or meat thermometer. If

the temperature is too low, have a qualified person raise the water heater thermostat setting.

2.Use HI-TEMP WASHING Option. If water heating is needed, a thermostat will delay the Cycle

until temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). If water is hot enough, the cycle will proceed with no delay. This lets you turn down your water heater, if you choose, without cutting back on hot water needed for good dish- washing.

Quiet operating tips

To avoid thumping and clattering noises during operation:

l Make sure lightweight load items are secured in the rack.

l Make sure pot lids and handles, pizza pans, cookie sheets, etc. do not touch interior walls

or interfere with either of the spray arms rotation.

l Load dishes so they don’t touch one another.
