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.
WARNING
GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS
SAVE THESE 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.
KEY USAGE TIPS
Drying - Rinse Aid is essential.
You must use a drying agent such
as a rinse aid for good drying
performance. Rinse aid along with
the ProDry™ option provides the
best drying and avoids excessive
moisture in the dishwasher interior.
Note: Fan may run for 1 hour after
the end of cycle to maintain dry
performance as the dishwasher cools.
Energy efficiency
Energy efficiency is gained by extending cycle time and
reducing the amount of wattage and water used during
your dishwasher’s cycle. All models contain an optical water
sensor to determine water and energy consumption.
Efficient dishwashers run longer to save water and energy,
just as driving a car slower saves on gas.
Press START/RESUME every time
you add a dish.
IMPORTANT: If anyone opens the door (such as, for
adding a dish, even during the Delay Hours option),
START/RESUME must be pressed each time.
Push door firmly closed within 3 seconds of pressing
START/RESUME. If door is not closed within
3 seconds, the Start button light will flash, an audible
tone will be heard, and cycle will not start.
SLIDE
Easy to remove third level rack
If additional space is needed in
the upper rack, the third level rack
can easily be removed
To remove, fully extend rack until
it stops. Then open the track
stops on each side and lift to
remove.
Low profile items such
as serving utensils and
silverware may be
loaded on the third
level rack.
Dynamic Lower Spray Arm
(on some models)
The Dynamic Lower
Spray Arm is motor driven
and does not spin freely
unless the dishwasher is
running. The motor
assures just the right spin
for thorough and effective
cleaning.
