Your safety and the safety of others are very important.
We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety
messages.
This is the safety alert symbol.
This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.
All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word "DANGER" or "WARNING."
These words mean:
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't immediately
follow instructions.
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't follow
instructions.
All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can
happen if the instructions are not followed.
IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: When using the dishwasher, follow basic precautions, including the following:
[] Read all instructions before using the dishwasher. [] Do not tamper with controls.
[] Use the dishwasher only for its intended function.
[] Use only detergents or rinse agents recommended for use in
a dishwasher, and keep them out of the reach of children.
[] When loading items to be washed:
1) Locate sharp items so that they are not likely to damage
the door seal; and
2) Load sharp knives with the handles up to reduce the risk
of cut-type injuries.
[] 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.
[] Do not touch the heating element during or immediately after
use.
[] Do not operate the dishwasher unless all enclosure panels
are properly in place.
[] Do not abuse, sit on, or stand on the door, lid, or dish racks
of the dishwasher.
[] To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to play in
or on the dishwasher.
[] 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.
[] Remove the door or lid to the washing compartment
when removing an old dishwasher from service or
discarding it.

GROUNDING iNSTRUCTiONS
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.
SAVE THESE iNSTRUCTiONS
Tip Over Hazard
Do not use dishwasher until completely installed.
Do not push down on open door.
Doing so can result in serious injury or cuts.

Congratulations on purchasing your water and energy efficient dishwasher! This dishwasher cleans by spraying the
dishes with water and pauses to allow the detergent to soak into and release the soils on the dishes. The cycles are
longer due to the soak and pauses for exceptional cleaning. Several models contain an optical water sensor. The
optical water sensor is used to determine the optimum water and energy consumption for great cleaning
performance. The first cycle using the sensor will run longer to calibrate the optical sensor.
Using rinse aid will optimize your drying and wash performance.
This dishwasher is specifically designed to be used with rinse aid
for improved drying performance and controlling buildup of hard
water deposits. Energy efficient dishwashers use less water and
energy, so they depend on the water "sheeting" action of rinse
aid for total optimal performance.
The United States has passed a restriction limiting the amount of
phosphorus (phosphates) in the household dishwasher
detergents to no more than 0.5%, where previous detergents
contained 8.7%. Major manufacturers have reformulated their
dishwasher detergent for this change in detergents as another
step in eco-conscious awareness. With these recent changes it is
recommended to use tablets and packs for convenience and
improved performance.

\
\
Your dishwasher has the latest technology in dishwasher
filtration. This triple filtration system minimizes sound and
optimizes water and energy conservation while providing optimal
cleaning performance. Maintenance of your filters regularly will
sustain peak cleaning performance. We suggest you clean both
your upper and lower filter and rinse under running water at least
once a month.

spray to reach all soiled surfaces.
• Make sure that when the dishwasher door is closed no items
are blocking the detergent dispenser.
• Items should be loaded with soiled surfaces facing down and
inward to the spray as shown. This will improve cleaning and
drying results.
• Avoid overlapping items like bowls or plates that may trap food.
• Place plastics, small plates and glasses in the upper rack.
Wash only plastic items marked "dishwasher safe."
• To avoid thumping/clattering noises during operation: Load
dishes so they do not touch one another. Make sure lightweight
load items are secured in the racks.
• The amount of detergent to use depends on:
How much soil remains on the items - Heavily soiled loads
require more detergent.
The hardness of the water - If you use too little in hard water,
dishes won't be clean. Ifyou use too much in soft water,
glassware will etch.

Add Rinse Aid
HardWaterSoftWater
Pre-Wash
Your dishwasher is designed to use rinse aid for good drying
performance. Without rinse aid your dishes and dishwasher
interior will have excessive moisture. The heat dry option will
not perform as well without rinse aid.
Rinse aid keeps water from forming droplets that can
dry as spots or streaks. They also improve drying by
allowing water to drain off of the dishes after the final
rinse.
Rinse aid helps to reduce excess moisture on the
dish racks and interior of your dishwasher.

Your dishwasher has the latest technology in dishwasher filtration. This triple filtration system minimizes sound and optimizes water and
energy conservation while providing superior cleaning performance. Throughout the life of your dishwasher, the filter will require
maintenance to sustain peak cleaning performance.
The triple filter system consists of 2 parts, an upper filter
assembly and a lower filter.
• The upper filter assembly keeps oversized items and
foreign objects, along with very fine food particles, out of
the pump.
• The lower filter keeps food from being recirculated onto
your dishware.
The filters may need to be cleaned when:
• Visible objects or soils are on the Upper Filter Assembly.
• There is degradation in cleaning performance (that is,
soils still present on dishes).
• Dishes feel gritty to the touch.
It is very easy to remove and maintain the filters. The chart
below shows the recommended cleaning frequency.

CLEANING THE DISHWASHER
Cleaning the exterior
Clean the exterior of the dishwasher with a soft, damp cloth and
mild detergent. If your dishwasher has a stainless steel exterior, a
stainless steel cleaner is recommended - Stainless Steel Cleaner
and Polish Part Number 31464.
Cleaning the interior
Clean the interior of the dishwasher, with a paste of powdered
dishwasher detergent and water or use liquid dishwasher detergent
on a damp sponge to clean the cooled-down interior.
A white vinegar rinse may remove white spots and film. Vinegar is
an acid, and using it too often could damage your dishwasher.
Put 2 cups (500 mL) white vinegar in a glass or dishwasher-safe
measuring cup on the bottom rack. Run the dishwasher through a
complete washing cycle using an air-dry or an energy-saving dry
option. Do not use detergent. Vinegar will mix with the wash water.
Dishwasher Maintenance Procedure
To help avoid odor or odor-causing residue in your dishwasher, use
affresh ®_dishwasher and disposer cleaner (recommended) once a
month as part of routine maintenance. Affresh ®dishwasher and
disposer cleaner is effective in all dishwasher brands.
IMPORTANT:
• Read these instructions and the instructions found on the
affresh®product package completely before beginning the
cleaning process.
• Use foil wrapper or gloves when handling the tablet.
1. Remove all dishware from the dishwasher. Open the
dishwasher and place 1 affresh ®dishwasher and disposer
tablet in the main detergent tray and close the tray. Place
another tablet in the prewash tray or simply place 1 tablet in
the bottom of the dishwasher. Close the dishwasher. Run the
dishwasher on the most aggressive cycle - heavy duty scrub,
heated water, etc.
2. Place 1 affresh ®dishwasher and disposal tablet into the
garbage disposal. Turn on hot water to slow flow. Run the
disposal and water for 15 seconds. Turn off disposal and
water. Do not flush disposal completely with water. Water from
the dishwasher will clean out the disposal. If no garbage
disposal, skip this step.
Drain air gap
If you have a drain air gap, _,
check and clean it if the
dishwasher isn't draining
well.
Storing the Dishwasher
If you will not be using the dishwasher during the summer months,
turn off the water and power supply to the dishwasher. In the
winter, if the dishwasher could be exposed to near freezing
temperatures or is left in aseasonal dwelling such as a second
home or vacation home, avoid water damage by having your
dishwasher winterized by authorized service personnel.

Dishwasher is not operating properly
•Dishwasher does not run or stops during a cycle
Is the door closed tightly and latched?
Is the right cycle selected?
Is there power to the dishwasher? Has a household fuse blown,
or has a circuit breaker tripped? Replace the fuse or reset the
circuit breaker. If the problem continues, call an electrician.
Has the motor stopped due to an overload? The motor
automatically resets itself within a few minutes. If it does not
restart, call for service.
Is the water shutoff valve (if installed) turned on?
It is normal for certain cycles to repeatedly pause for several
seconds during the main wash.
•The Clean light is flashing
Call for service.
•Dishwasher will not fill
Is the overfill protection float able to move up
and down freely? Press down to release.
• Dishwasher seems to run too long
The dishwasher can run up to 31/2hours
depending on soil level, water temperature, cycles and options.
Is the water supplied to the dishwasher hot enough? The
dishwasher runs longer while heating water.
Is the dishwasher cycle time within the cycle times? See cycle
sections wash times. A delay automatically occurs in some
wash and rinse cycles until the water reaches the proper
temperature.
This dishwasher is equipped with an optical sensor wash that
detects water temperature, soil and detergent amount. Wash
cycles are adjusted based on what is sensed.
IMPORTANT: The very first wash cycle after installation in your
home will be adjusted to include an additional 2 rinses. This
cycle must not be interrupted for proper sensor adjustment. If
this adjustment cycle is canceled or stopped before the Clean
light comes on at the end of the cycle, the next wash cycle will
repeat this sensor adjustment.
•Water remains in the dishwasher
Is the cycle complete?
•Detergent remains in the covered section of the dispenser
Is the cycle complete?
Is the detergent lump-free? Replace detergent if necessary.
Is the dispenser door blocked by dishes or cookware when the
dishwasher door is closed?
•White residue on the front of the access panel
Was too much detergent used?
Is the brand of detergent making excess foam? Try a different
brand to reduce foaming and eliminate buildup.
• Odor in the dishwasher
Are dishes washed only every 2 or 3 days? Run a rinse cycle
once or twice a day until you have a full load.
Does the dishwasher have a new plastic smell? Run a vinegar
rinse as described in "Dishwasher Care."
• Condensation on the kitchen counter (built-in models)
Is the dishwasher aligned with the countertop? Moisture from
the vent in the dishwasher console can form on the counter.
Refer to the Installation Instructions for more information.
Dishes do not dry completely
•Dishes do not dry completely
Did you use a rinse aid? Your dishwasher is designed to use
rinse aid for good drying performance. Without rinse aid your
dishes and dishwasher interior will have excessive moisture.
The heat dry option will not perform as well without rinse aid.
•Dishes are not dry
Did you load your dishwasher to allow proper water drainage?
Do not overload. Use a liquid rinse aid to speed drying.
Are the plastics wet? Plastics often need towel drying.
Is the rinse aid dispenser empty?
Did you use an air-dry or energy-saving dry option? Use a
heated drying option for dryer dishes.
•Excess moisture on racks and dishwasher interior
Check the rinse aid indicator to see that there is rinse aid in the
dispenser.
Spots and stains on dishes
Spotting and filming on dishes
Is your water hard, or is there a high mineral content in your
water? Conditioning the final rinse water with a liquid rinse aid
helps eliminate spotting and filming. Keep the rinse aid
dispenser filled. Always use a high-temp option. If your water
hardness is 13 grains or above, it is strongly recommended that
you install a home water softener. Ifyou do not wish to drink
softened water, have the softener installed onto your hot water
supply.
Is the water temperature too low? For best dishwashing results,
water should be 120°F (49°C) as it enters the dishwasher.
Did you use the correct amount of effective detergent? Use
recommended dishwasher detergents only. Do not use less
than 1 tbs (15 g) per load. Detergent must be fresh to be
effective. Heavy soil and/or hard water generally require extra
detergent.
Is the home water pressure high enough for proper dishwasher
filling? Home water pressure should be 20 to 120 psi (138 to
828 kPa) for proper dishwasher fill. If you have questions about
your water pressure, call a licensed, qualified plumber.
NOTE: To remove spots and film from glassware, remove all
silverware and metal items and run a vinegar rinse as described
in "Dishwasher Care."
Silica film or etching (silica film is a milky, rainbow-colored
deposit; etching is a cloudy film)
Sometimes there is a water/chemical reaction with certain
types of glassware. This is usually caused by some
combination of soft or softened water, alkaline washing
solutions, insufficient rinsing, overloading the dishwasher, and
the heat of drying. It might not be possible to avoid the
problem, except by hand washing.
To slow this process use a minimum amount of detergent but
not less than 1tbs (15 g) per load. Use a liquid rinse aid and
underload the dishwasher to allow thorough rinsing. Silica film
and etching are permanent and cannot be removed. Do not use
heated drying.
•White spots on cookware with nonstick finish
Has the dishwasher detergent removed cookware seasoning?
Reseason cookware after washing it in the dishwasher.
11

•Brown stains on dishes and dishwasher interior
Does your water have high iron content? Rewash dishes using
1-3 tsp (5-15 mL) of citric acid crystals added to the covered
section of the detergent dispenser. Do not use detergent.
Follow with a Normal wash cycle with detergent. Iftreatment is
needed more often than every other month, the installation of
an iron removal unit is suggested.
Black or gray marks on dishes
Are aluminum items rubbing dishes during washing?
Disposable aluminum items can break down in the dishwasher
and cause marking. Hand wash these items. Remove
aluminum markings by using a mild abrasive cleaner.
Orange stains on plastic dishes or dishwasher interior
Are large amounts of tomato-based foods on dishes placed in
the dishwasher? It may be necessary to use a stain removal
product to remove stains from your dishwasher. Stains will not
affect dishwasher performance.
Noises
Grinding, grating, crunching or buzzing sounds
A hard object has entered the wash module (on some models).
When the object is ground up, the sound should stop. If the
noise persists after a complete cycle, call for service.
Dishes are not completely clean
•Food soil left on the dishes
Is the dishwasher loaded correctly?
Did you choose the cycle that describes the most difficult soil in
your dishwasher? If you have some items with heavier soils,
use a heavier cycle.
Is the water temperature too low? For best dishwashing results,
water should be 120°F (49°C) as it enters the dishwasher.
Did you use the correct amount of fresh detergent? Use
recommended dishwasher detergents only. Do not use less
than 1 tbs (15 g) per load. Detergent must be fresh to be
effective. Heavy soil and/or hard water generally require extra
detergent.
Is detergent caked in dispenser? Use fresh detergent only. Do
not allow detergent to sit for several hours in a wet dispenser.
Clean dispenser when caked detergent is present.
Is the pump or spray arm clogged by labels from bottles and
cans?
Is the home water pressure high enough for proper dishwasher
filling? Home water pressure should be 20 to 120 psi (138 to
828 kPa) for proper dishwasher fill. If you have questions about
your water pressure, call a licensed, qualified plumber.
Are high suds slowing the wash arm? Do not use soap or
laundry detergents. Use recommended dishwasher detergents
only.
Dishes are damaged during acycle
Chipping of dishes
Did you load the dishwasher properly? Load the dishes and
glasses so they are stable and do not strike together from
washing action. Minimize chipping by moving the rack in and
out slowly.
NOTE: Antiques, feather-edged crystal, and similar types of
china and glassware might be too delicate for automatic
dishwashing. Wash by hand.

INSTRUCCIONES DE CONEXION A TIERRA
Para una lavavajillas con cable ei_ctrico y conexi6n a
tierra:
La lavavajillas debe estar conectada a tierra. En caso de
funcionamiento defectuoso o averia, la conexi6n a tierra
reduce el riesgo de choque electrico al establecer una ruta
de menor resistencia para la corriente electrica. La
lavavajillas viene equipada con un cable electrico que tiene
un conductor para conexi6n a tierra y un enchufe con
cone×i6n a tierra. El enchufe debe ser conectado a un
contacto apropiado que este instalado y conectado a tierra
de acuerdo con todos los c6digos y ordenanzas locales.
ADVERTENCIA: La conexion inadecuada del
conductor de conexi6n a tierra puede resultar en riesgo
[]
de choque electrico. Pregunte a un electricista
calificado o a un agente de servicio si no esta seguro si
la lavavajillas esta adecuadamente conectada a tierra.
No modifique el enchufe que viene con la lavavajillas. Si
no cabe en el contacto, pida que un electricista
calificado instale un contacto apropiado.

cableado de metal permanente, conectado a tierra, o se
debe tender un conducto para la conexion a tierra del

iFelicitaciones por haber comprado la lavavajillas con bajo consumo de agua y energia! Esta lavavajillas limpia
rociando la vajilla con agua y hace pausas para permitir que el detergente remoje la vajilla y afloje la suciedad de
los platos. Para obtener una limpieza excepcional, los ciclos se hacen mas largos debido al remojo y las pausas.
Varios modelos tienen un sensor optico de agua. El sensor optico de agua se usa para determinar el consumo
optimo de agua y energia para un desempe_o de limpieza ideal. El primer ciclo con sensor durarA m_s tiempo para
calibrar el sensor optico.
El uso del agente de enjuague hara optimo el desempe_o de
lavado y secado. Esta lavavajillas ha sido dise_ada
especificamente para usarse en conjuncion con agente de
enjuague, para obtener un mejor desempe_o de secado y
controlar la acumulacion de depositos de agua dura. Las
lavavajillas con bajo consumo de energia usan menos agua y
energia, de modo que dependen de la accion de desplazamiento
del agua por obra del agente de enjuague para asegurar un
6ptimo desempe_o de secado.
Estados Unidos ha aprobado una restriccion que limita la
cantidad de fosforo (fosfatos) en los detergentes para lavavajillas
domesticas a no m_s de 0,5 %, mientras que los detergentes
previos contenian 8,7 %. Los principales fabricantes han
reformulado su detergente para lavavajillas de acuerdo a este
cambio, un paso mas en la conciencia ecologica. Con estos
cambios recientes, se recomienda usar pastillas y paquetes por
conveniencia y para mejorar el desempe_o.
