SAFETY PRECAUTIONS
Warning! – To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock, or injury to per-
sons, always exercise basic safety precautions, including the following:
1. Read all instructions before using the appliance.
2. Use the dishwasher only for its intended function.
3. Use only detergents or rinse agents recommended for use in a
dishwasher, and keep them out of the reach of children.
4. When loading items to be washed:
1) Locate sharp items so that they are not likely to damage the door
seal;
2) Load sharp knives with the handles up to reduce the risk of cut-type
injuries.
5. Do not wash plastic items unless they are marked "dishwasher safe” or
the equivalent. For plastic items not so marked, check the manufacturer's
recommendations.
6. Do not touch the heating element during or immediately after use.
7. Do not operate the dishwasher unless all enclosure panels are properly
in place.
8. Do not tamper with controls.
9. Do not abuse, sit on, or stand on the door, lid, or dish racks of the
dishwasher.
10. To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to play in or on the
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 the dishwasher turn on all hot
water faucets and let the water flow from each for several minutes,
This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is
flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame during this time.
12. Remove the door or lid to the washing compartment when removing
an old dishwasher from service or discarding it.

death, fire, or electrical shock.

For a grounded, cord-connected dishwasher:
The dishwasher must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction or
breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a
path of least resistance for electric current. The dishwasher is equipped with a
cord having an equipment- grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The
plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is installed and grounded
in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.
WARNING:
Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk
of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service representative if
you are in doubt whether the dishwasher is properly grounded. Do not modify
the plug provided with the dishwasher; if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper
outlet installed by a qualified electrician.
For a permanently connected dishwasher:
The dishwasher must be connected to a grounded metal, permanent wiring
system, or an equipment- grounding conductor must be run with the circuit
conductors and connected to the equipment- grounding terminal or lead on the
dishwasher.

LOADING SUGGESTIONS
t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. The wash system is designed
to remove food particles from the water. The wash system includes a chopping
device which will reduce 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.

PROPER USE OF DETERGENT
Use only detergent specifically made for use in dishwasher. Cascade, Cascade
Complete and Electrasol Automatic Dishwashing Detergents have been approved
for use in all Haier dishwashers. Keep your detergent fresh and dry. Don't put
powder detergent into the dispenser until you're ready to wash dishes.
All wash cycles except RINSE ONLY require detergent in the main and pre-wash
cup.
Detergent Dispenser
The detergent dispenser has 2 sections. The small Pre-Wash section empties
detergent into dishwasher when you close the door.
The larger Main wash section automatically empties detergent into the

RINSE AID DISPENSER
Rinse aids prevent water from forming droplets that can dry as spots or streaks.
They also improve drying by allowing water to drain off of the dishes during the
final rinse by releasing a small amount of the rinse aid into the rinse water. Your
dishwasher is designed to use a liquid rinse aid. Do not use a solid or bar-type.

tions, this will last for about three months. Rinse aid is released through an open-
ing in the dispenser. You do not need to wait until the dispenser is empty to refill
it. Try to keep it full, but be careful not to overfill it.
1. Make sure the dishwasher door is fully open.
2. Open the dispenser by pushing the cover latch.
3. Add rinse aid until the indicator window looks full.
4. Clean up any spilled rinse aid with a damp cloth.
5. Close the cover.
RINSE AID SETTING
The amount of rinse aid released into the final wash can be adjusted. The factory
setting is at 2. For most water conditions, set the adjuster to 2 or 3. If there are

CYCLE SELECTION CHARTS
Select the wash cycle and options desired. The dishwasher starts filling once the
door is closed and you press a cycle, unless you select a delay wash. After fill-
ing, and a brief wash period, the machine will pause for a 5 minute energy sav-
ing soak interval. During this time, dried and baked on soil is softened for easier
removal later in the cycle. You can select options as the machine is filling.

the cycle time might be longer depending on the temperature of the water enter-

Use for all soil types and dish
