condensation chamber. The condensed hot moist air cools down ito form water and
is exhausted through the drainpipe.
• With this type of exhaust design in your dishwasher, there is no need to worry
about your cabinets getting damaged, unlike other conventional dishwashers with a
front vent opening to exhaust hot moist air which may easily spread around the
cabinets and cause damage.
Upper Wash Option:
This option can be used with ALL wash programs.
Note:You can select this option when you want to wash small load of dishware
and glassware. You must load items in the “UPPER RACK ONLY.” The lower
rack must be completely empty when using this option. During the wash
process, the water flow from the upper sprayer is concentrated only on the
wash load in the upper rack.
Note:You must use “ONE HALF” the amount of detergent that you would normally
use for full a load. This option saves detergent, water and energy. Follow the
steps below to select the wash option for each program.

Preparing to wash dishes:
For best results, practice the following
before you put dishware in the dishwasher:
• Discard big chunks of food from the plate
before loading.
• Remove sticky foods and loosen
burned-on foods before loading.
• Empty liquids such as juice, soup, soda,
coffee or tea from glasses and cups
before loading.
• Rinse off acid based liquid, such as vinegar or lemon juice right a way. This may
cause discoloration over time to your plates, food containers or internal cabinet.
• Always check manufacturer’s recommendations before you start washing items.
Tips to avoid stains and films:
The following suggestions are recommended to prevent stains and films
from dishware and utensils items:
• You must rinse all dishware, silverware, glassware and food containers right a
way after use. Some citric based food products, coffee, tea and iron deposits in
water can cause yellow or brown film on inside surface when left on for a long
time and not rinsed immediately.
• You must check your water hardness to see whether you need to use more or less
detergent to wash. If water is extremely hard then it may be causing stains on
items. You may need to use water softener.
• Do not over load the dishwasher.
• Avoid improper loading.
• Make sure there is a proper water temperature that is recommended to
wash dishware.
• Do not use too little detergent.
• Do not use old or damp powder detergent.
• Do not load aluminum utensils improperly. Aluminum utensils can cause gray or
black marks to porcelain utensils if touching during wash cycle.

Loading the Lower & Upper Rack:
To get maximum cleaning results, follow the
recommendations below before you start
the dishwasher:
Note: Do not wash any heat sensitive or any other
items that are not designed for automatic
dishwashers.
• Keep all tall dishware and food containers away from the spray arm rotation.
• Place food containers such as cups, glasses, bowls, saucepans and casserole
dishes with soiled surface facing in the downward position.
• To avoid any type of damage to glassware such as
coffee/tea cups, beverage, wine and champagne
glasses, do not load them on the bottom rack. Place
these items on the upper rack.
• Put cups upside down on the top of the
cup/stemware rack and put wine or
champagne glasses upside down between the divided segments of the
cup/stemware rack to secure them properly.
• Do not load dishware or food containers that are made of wood or iron. These
items are not considered dishwasher safe.(See chart on p.22 for details.)
• Do not jam the glassware items together when loading.
• Place delicate items on the upper rack.
• Do not load tall dishware or cookware items near the middle spray arm.
• Move racks slowly in and out to avoid slamming the dishware items together.
• Make sure all dishware and glassware items are securely in place when loading
to avoid falling over or striking against each other.

Adjustable Upper Rack System:
The upper rack has two positions, which allows you to modify the rack system
according to your current space needs. The flexibility of the upper rack is ideal for
washing tall dishware and glassware items.
For Example: Adjusting the Rack to the Lower Position:
Allows you the flexibility to load taller wine or champagne glasses in the upper
rack. Simply remove the rack and bring it to the lower position.
For Example: Adjusting the Rack to Upper Position:
Allows you the flexibility to load tall dishes on the lower rack.
Steps to Remove the Rack
1) Open both sides of the rail guards from the upper rack.
2) Slide the rack out.
3) Place the rack to your desired position.
4) Close both sides of the rail guards so rack will not slide out.

English
17
Loading Split Silverware Basket:
Your dishwasher has a removable split basket with two compartments that can be
separated to give you loading flexibility in order to accommodate flatware and
lower rack capacity needs. This option saves space when only half the unit is
needed. Simply remove the basket from the
dishwasher to load silverware and place it
back once you finish loading.
Steps to Split the Silverware Basket
1) Put your right hand in right side of the
basket and your left hand in the left side
of the basket.
2) Simply slide the basket with light force to
unlock/split by pushing it forward and
pulling it towards you until you see that
both hooks come out of the elongated holes in the middle.
Note: Do not use heavy force to split the basket because this may cause
damage to plastic hooks to break off.
3) To put both halves together again, use both hands to level the split baskets and
sliding each hook into each elongated hole on both sides. Now, slide with light
force to attach/lock by pushing it forward and pulling it towards you until both
baskets snaps in easily.
• To avoid any type of injury, load knives and forks face down.
• Try to mix spoons, knives and forks for better cleaning and drying and to prevent
nesting.
• Do not mix stainless steel and silver items because you may damage the silver
finish on silver items.
• Do not load tall items next to the upper spray arm because it
may block the rotation.
• Do not load tin, pewter and non-dishware filters. These items
are not considered dishwasher safe.

English
18
Proper Use of Detergent:
• The amount of detergent to use depends on the type of water in your living area
whether it is hard or soft and whether items are lightly or heavily soiled.
• Water softness or hardness is measured in grains content per gallon (gpg). You
can find out the gpg level by calling your local Environmental Protection Agency
(EPA) in your county.
• If you find that the gpg level is higher in the water, then the water will be harder
in your living area. You will need more detergent to clean. If gpg level is lower,
then the water will be softer in your living area so you will need less
detergent to clean.
See the following table to understand the "water hardness type" and gpg level.
Water Hardness Type gpg
Hard 10+
Medium 4-9
Soft 0-3
Note: If gpg level is over 12, then water is very hard. You may need water
softener to improve the water quality and the performance of
your dishwashing.
Note: The quality of the detergent will make a big difference in the cleaning of
dishes. Detergent that is damp or too old will not be as effective to clean
because the active ingredients will be phased off. Detergent will not work
properly.
Note: Use only "Automatic Dishwasher Detergent" for your
dishwasher. Other types of detergents that are not for dishwasher use may
cause oversudsing and foaming. Do not use detergents that are dried, caked
or moist. These types of detergents will not dissolve properly and and will
clean effectively.
