Before using your dishwasher, remove all packaging materials. Read this entire Use and Care Guide. You will find important safety
information and useful operating tips.
1. Rinse aid is essential for good drying. Be sure to fill the rinse
aid dispenser before you use your new dishwasher. Each
filling will last about 1 to 2 months depending on your usage.
(See "Rinse Aid Dispenser.")
2. Scrape large food soil and hard items (toothpicks or bones)
from dishes.
3. Check drain filter and spray arm. (See "Cleaning.") Ensure the
drain filter is flush with the filter plate, and the spray arm can
rotate about the center easily.
A. Spray arm
B. Filter plate
C. Drain filter
4. Properly load the dishwasher. (See "Dishwasher Loading.")
Load dishes with space in between so water will reach the
soiled surfaces. Make sure nothing keeps the spray arm(s)
from spinning freely.
5. Add powdered detergent. Always use a high quality brand
detergent. (See "Dishwasher Use.")
IMPORTANT: Only use powdered detergent recommended
for dishwashers. Do not use liquid or tablet detergents. Wash
performance could be negatively impacted if you use
anything other than powdered detergent.

NOTES:
If the dishwasher is operating and a power failure occurs,

time. When the power supply is resumed, the dishwasher
will start in the same part of the wash cycle.

wash cycle. At the end of the wash cycle, the drying fan will
continue to run for a set time or until the drawer is opened.
The fan assists with drying and uses small amounts of energy.
NOTE: It is normal for some water to remain in the drain filter
area after the wash cycle is complete.
