OPERATION
Using the Appliance
Before Using the Appliance
• Read the Important Safety Instructions.
• Connect to the hot water supply only. The water
supply temperature should be a minimum of
120°F (49°C) for better washing performance
and shorter cycle time.
• Follow the instructions for loading the
dishwasher to ensure effective cleaning.
• Remove insoluble items such as bones,
toothpicks, and pieces of paper while loading
the dishwasher.
When Loading the dishwasher
1
Only load items that are dishwasher-safe.
2
Remove solid, burned-on scraps from dishes
prior to loading in the dishwasher.
3
Place items with deep dish bottoms at an
angle to help water run off and speed the
drying process.
NOTE
• Do not load utensils that are not heat-resistant
or have decorative metal trim.
Quick Start
1
Load the dishes
Scrape the dishes free of excess food, bones,
and any other hard, non-soluble residue.
Pull each rack out and load the dishes as
described in this manual.
2
Measure the detergent
Using the guidelines in this manual, fill the
detergent cup with the recommended amount
of detergent and close the lid. If a prewash
is desired, the recess on top of the lid should
also be filled with detergent.
3
Close the door
4
Turn on the dishwasher
To turn on the display panel, press the Power
button.
5
Check the Rinse Refill
The Rinse Refill lamp will flash if the level
of rinse aid in the dishwasher is low. Add
rinse aid if the level is low to maintain the
effectiveness of the dry cycle.
6
Select the cycle and options
Select the cycle and options that best fit the
load by referring to the Cycle guide. The
display will show the estimated time for the
cycle and options selected.
7
Operate the dishwasher
• Method 1
− Press the Start button and then close the
door in less than four seconds to operate
the dishwasher. If the door is not closed
within four seconds, the white LED with
time flashes, an audible tone is heard, and
the cycle does not start.
• Method 2
− Close the door first and then press the Start
button to operate the dishwasher.
− If the door is opened during the cycle, the
dishwasher will stop. To resume the cycle,
see methods 1 and 2 above.
NOTE
• If the door is opened during the cycle and is
not closed within four seconds after selecting
the Start button, or if the door is closed
without pressing the Start button, the white
LED with time flashes, an audible tone is
heard, and the cycle does not start.
8
End of cycle
When the cycle is complete, a chime will
sound and the display will show End until
the door is opened or Power is pressed. To
save energy, press and hold High Temp for
three seconds to set the End display to
automatically turn off a few minutes after the
cycle ends.
CAUTION
• Do not open the door during operation or
immediately after it has completed the wash
cycle as the steam build up may cause
scalding as the door is opened.
NOTE
• Empty the lower rack first and then the upper
rack. This will avoid water dripping from the
upper rack onto dishes in the lower rack.
Auto-Off
The dishwasher automatically turns off after four
minutes of inactivity if paused or if no cycle is
started.
