IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: When using the dishwasher, follow basic precautions, including the following: 
SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
■  Read all instructions before using the dishwasher.
■  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 manufacturers 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 tamper with controls.
■  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
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.
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

Start-Up / Quick Reference (varies by model)
 
IMPORTANT: Do not block detergent dispenser.
Tall items placed in the lower 
rack may block the dispenser 
door. Cookie sheets and 
cutting boards loaded on the 
left-hand side of the 
dishwasher can easily block 
the dispenser. If detergent is 
inside of the dispenser or on 
the bottom of the tub after the 
cycle is complete, the 
dispenser was blocked. 
Drying - Rinse Aid is essential.
You must use a drying agent 
such as a rinse aid for good 
drying performance (sample 
included). Rinse aid along 
with the Heat Dry option will 
provide best drying and avoid 
excessive moisture in the 
dishwasher interior.
     
1 Hour Wash - When you need fast results.
Efficient dishwashers run longer to save water 
and energy, just as driving a car slower saves 
on gas. When you need fast results, the 
1 Hour Wash will clean dishes using slightly 
more water and energy. Select the Heat Dry 
option to speed drying times (adds 
approximately 35 minutes to the 1 Hour Wash 
cycle)
.

Heavy Duty cycle for tough soil cleaning
The Heavy Duty cycle is recommended for 
tough soil loads. Use for hard-to-clean, 
heavily soiled pots, pans, casseroles, and 
tableware. No need to prerinse dishes; just 
scrape and load.
ProScrub® Option loading to clean baked-on food 
(on some models)
When the ProScrub® 
option is selected, it 
provides a 
concentrated wash 
on the back of the 
lower dish rack for 
hard-to-clean dishes. 
Place these dishes 
with the soiled 
surface of the dish 
toward the 
ProScrub
® spray jets 
in the lower rack of 
the dishwasher.
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), the Start/Resume button must 
be pressed each time. 
If the Start/Resume button is located on top of 
door, push door firmly closed within 
3 seconds of pressing START/RESUME. If the 
door is not closed within 3 seconds, the Start/
Resume button LED will flash, an audible tone 
will be heard, and the cycle will not start.
Proper Detergent Dosing
It is possible to use too much detergent in your dishwasher. 
This can lead to etching of your dishes. See “Add Detergent” in 
the “Dishwasher Use” section to determine the amount of 
detergent needed based on your water hardness.

Quick Steps
Dishwasher Use
Prepare and Load the Dishwasher
IMPORTANT: Remove leftover food, bones, toothpicks and other 
hard items from the dishes. Remove labels from containers before 
washing.  
■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. 
■Improper loading can cause dishes to be chipped or damaged. 
When loading glasses or mugs, it is best to load these items in 
between rows of tines instead of loading them over tines.
Add Detergent
NOTE: If you do not plan to run a wash cycle soon, run a rinse 
cycle. Do not use detergent.
■Use automatic dishwasher detergent only. Add powder, liquid 
or tablet detergent just before starting a cycle.
■Fresh automatic 
dishwasher detergent 
results in better 
cleaning. Store tightly 
closed detergent 
container in a cool, dry 
place.

■Make sure nothing keeps spray arm(s) from 
spinning freely. It is important for the water 
spray to reach all soiled surfaces. 
■When loading silverware, always place sharp 
items pointing down. Mix items in each 
section of the basket with some pointing up 
and some down to avoid nesting. Spray 
cannot reach nested items.

■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 wont be clean. If you use too much in soft water, 
glassware will etch.
Soft to Medium Water (0-6 grains per U.S. gallon) 
[typical water softener water and some city water] 
Medium to Hard Water (7-12 grains per U.S. gallon)
[well water and some city water]
■Depending on your water hardness, fill the Main Wash section 
of the dispenser as shown. Fill the Pre-Wash section to the 
level shown, if needed. 
NOTE: Fill amounts 
shown are for standard 
powdered detergent. 
Follow instructions on the 
package when using other 
dishwasher detergent 
types. Premeasured forms 
are suitable for all hardness and soil levels. Always place 
premeasured detergents in the main compartment and close the 
lid.  
Add 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.
■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.
■Check the rinse aid indicator. Add rinse aid when 
indicator drops to “Add” level.
■To add rinse aid, turn the dispenser cap 
to “Refill” and lift off. Pour rinse aid into 
the opening until the indicator level is at 
“Full.” Replace the dispenser cap and 
turn to “Lock.” Make sure cap is fully 
locked. NOTE: For most water conditions, 
the factory setting of 2 will give good 
results. If you have hard water or 
notice rings or spots, try a higher 
setting. Turn the arrow adjuster 
inside the dispenser by either using 
your fingers or inserting a flat-blade 
screwdriver into the center of the 
arrow and turning. 
Select a Cycle (cycles vary by model) 
See “Cycle and Option Descriptions” charts in the following 
section.
Efficient dishwashers run longer to save water and energy, just as 
driving a car slower saves on gas. Typical cycle time is 
approximately 2¹⁄₂ hours, but can take less or more time to 
complete depending on selections.
Select Options (options vary by model) 
See “Cycle and Option Descriptions” charts in the following 
section.
You can customize your cycles by pressing the options desired. If 
you change your mind, press the option again to turn off the option. 
Not all options are available for every cycle. If an invalid option is 
selected for a given cycle, the lights will flash.
Start or Resume a Cycle
■Run hot water at the sink nearest your dishwasher until the 
water is hot. Turn off water.
■Press START/RESUME once to show which 
selections you used. Select the wash cycle and 
options desired OR press START/RESUME to repeat 
the same cycle and options as in the previous wash 
cycle.
IMPORTANT: If anyone opens the door (such as, for adding a dish, 
even during the Delay Hours option), the Start/Resume button 
must be pressed each time. 
■If the Start/Resume button is located on top of door, push door 
firmly closed within 3 seconds of pressing START/RESUME. If 
the door is not closed within 3 seconds, the Start/Resume 
button LED will flash, an audible tone will be heard, and the 
cycle will not start.
