To avoid thumping and clattering noises
during operation:
* Make sure lightweight load items are
secured in the rack.
+ Make sure pot lids and handles, pizza
pans, cookie sheets, etc., do not touch
the dishwasher sides or interfere with the
spray arm rotation.
Some normal sounds you might hear while
the dishwasher is running:
* The fill valve opening or closing and the
sound of water entering the dishwasher.
¢ Items being ground up in the food disposer.
+ Wash/rinse action of water spray. To
minimize noise of water circulating on
dishes, see "Loading your dishwasher',
on pages 8-13.
Energy saving tips
* Set your home water heater to provide a
minimum of 120°F (49°C) incoming water
to the dishwasher.
To check water temperature:
1. Run hot water at the faucet closest to your
dishwasher. Set a cup under the faucet,
and place a candy or meat thermometer
in it.
2. Run hot water for at least one minute into
à the cup, allowing the water to
overflow. Check the tempera-
ture. If the water temperature
is below 120°F (49°C), have
a qualified person raise the
thermostat setting on your water heater.
+ Detergent cup opening.
* Pump motor starting.
* Run the dishwasher during off-peak hours
if your utility company offers reduced rates
on electricity during specific times of day.
* Run the dishwasher at night during the
summer to reduce daytime heat buildup
in your home.
» Do not rinse dishes before loading.
+ Use the Energy Saver Dry option.
