Please install your dishwasher properly and follow the installation guide.
- Water supply temperature should be 120℉ or 149℉.
- Dispose of the discarded appliance and packing material properly.
- The dishwasher must be grounded, or it can result in a risk of electric shock.
- If there is any damage to the dishwasher, please contact to your retailer. Do not attempt to repair
or replace any part by yourself.
1. Read all instructions before using the dishwasher.
2. The manual does not cover every possible condition and situation that may occur.
3. Use the dishwasher only for intended function as described in this manual.
4. When loading items to be washed:
Load sharp items and knives so that they are not likely to damage the door seal and tub.
Load sharp items and knives with the handles up to reduce the risk of cut-type injury.
5. Do not wash plastic items unless marked dishwasher-safe or the equivalent, if not marked,
check with manufacturer for recommendation, items that are not dishwasher-safe may melt and
create a potential fire hazard.
6. If the dishwasher drains into a food disposer, make sure disposer is completely empty before
running dishwasher.
7. Do not tamper with control.
8. Do not operate your dishwasher unless all enclosure panels are in the properly place.
9. Do not touch the heating element during or immediately after use, especially if the sanitize
option has been selected.
10. Do not let children abuse, sit or stand on door or racks of a dishwasher.
11. Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot water system that has not
been used for two weeks or more. Hydrogen gas is explosive. If the hot water system has not
been used for such a period, before using on all hot water faucets and let water flow from each for
several minutes. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. Hydrogen gas is flammable. Do
not smoke or use an open flame during this time.
12. Do not store or use combustible materials, gasoline or other flammable vapors and liquids in
the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
13. Use only detergents or rinse agents recommended for use in a dishwasher and keep them out
of the reach of children.
14. Keep young children and infants away from dishwasher when it is operating.
15. Do not use the dishwasher if it has a damaged power line or plug, and do not plug the
dishwasher into a damaged outlet. Failure to observe these instructions may result in electrical
shock.
16. Remove the door to the washing compartment when removing an old dishwasher from
service or discarding it.

FEATURES OF YOUR NEW DISHWASHER
Filter System
Your dishwasher has a multiple Filter
System. In the Filter System, there are
four filter-meshes. It can separate soiled
water and clean water in different
chambers. The multiple filter system helps
your dishwasher to get better performance
with less water and less energy.
Adjustable Upper Rack
The Upper Rack can be raised or lowered
to accommodate loading taller dishes in
either rack. The Upper Rack clearance
height H1 goes from 8" to 10". The Bottom
Rack clearance height H2 is 11" to 13".
Smart Wash System
Your dishwasher has a Smart Wash System. When a partial load of lightly soiled dishes
is placed in the unit, a wash cycle similar to a short wash will automatically be
performed. When a full load of heavily soiled dishes is placed in the unit, a heavy wash
cycle will automatically be performed. It can
determine the type of cycle required to clean the dishes and will clean more efficiently
every time.
Page 3

How Your Dishwasher Cleans
Your dishwasher cleans by spraying a
mixture of hot water and detergent through
the spray arms against soiled surfaces.
The dishwasher fills with water covering the
filter area. Water is then pumped through
the multiple filter and spray arms. Soiled
water goes down the drain as the water is
pumped out and replaced with clean water.
The number of water fills will vary with the
cycle being used.
Getting Started
1. Load dishwasher.
2. Add detergent.
3. Add rinse aid, if needed.
4. Close door latch.
5. Select desired CYCLE. The indicator light
above the touchpad will glow when
selected.
6. Select desired OPTIONS. The indicator
light above the touchpad will glow when
selected.
7. Run the hot water faucet nearest the
dishwasher until the water is hot. Turn
the water off afterwards.
8. To start, press START/CANCEL on
the touchpad.
NOTE: Selections will only be
activated when the door is firmly
closed.
NOTE: The dishwasher is programmed to
remember your last cycle so you do not
have to reset each time. To start the
dishwasher using the same cycle and
options selected on the previous wash, just
press START/CANCEL on the touchpad.
Wash Cycle Selections
Cycle times are approximate and will vary
with options. Hot water is necessary to
activate dishwasher detergent and clean
fatty food particles. An automatic sensor
will check the incoming water temperature
and if it is not hot, the timer will be delayed
for automatic water heating in the main
wash of all cycles. This happens even
when HI-TEMP WASH is selected and a
higher temperature is guaranteed to
handle heavier food particles.

Step 7: Inserting the drain hose
through the cabinet
Insert the drain hose into the hole in
the cabinet wall. If a power cord is
used, guide the end through a
separate hole.
Tip: Position the water line and house
wiring on the floor to avoid interfering
with the base of the dishwasher.
Step 8: Slide the dishwasher partially into the cabinet
Caution: Do not push against the front panel with your knees. Damage will occur.
1. Position the dishwasher in front of the opening, then slide the dishwasher into the
opening a few inches at a time.

no interference with the water line, wiring, or any other component.
Page 14

Step 9: Position the dishwasher under the countertop
1. Make sure that the wires are secure under the dishwasher and not pinched or in
contact with door springs or other dishwasher components.
TIP: Check tub insulation blanket, if equipped. It should be positioned so it is not
bunched up or interfering with door springs. Check by opening and closing the door.
2. Push the dishwasher into the cabinet. The front corners of the dishwasher door
should be flush with the cabinet doors. Be careful not to dent the front panel with
your knees or damage the countertop or cabinets with dishwasher parts.
Step 10: Level the dishwasher
IMPORTANT: The dishwasher must be level for proper dish rack operation and wash
performance.
Use adjustable wrench and level.
