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. Using Your New Dishwasher 1. Scrape large food soil and hard items (toothpicks or bones) from dishes.
Loading Suggestions Remove leftover food, bones, toothpicks and other hard items from the dishes. It is not necessary to rinse the dishes before putting them into the dishwasher. NOTE: If hard items such as fruit seeds, nuts, and eggshells enter the wash system, you might hear chopping, grinding, crunching, or buzzing sounds.
Loading Bottom Rack The bottom rack is designed for plates, pans, casseroles, and utensils. Items with cooked-on or dried-on food should be loaded with soiled surfaces facing inward to the spray. (See recommended loading patterns shown.) NOTE: The features on your dishwasher rack may vary from the drawings shown.
The detergent dispenser has 2 sections. The Pre-Wash section empties detergent into the dishwasher when you close the door. A. Cover B. Main Wash section C. Cover latch D. Pre-Wash section The larger Main Wash section automatically empties detergent into the dishwasher during the main wash. (See “Cycle Selection Charts.”) Use automatic dishwashing detergent only.
Rinse Aid Dispenser Rinse aids prevent water from forming droplets that can dry as spots or streaks. They also improve drying by allowing water to drain off of the dishes during the final rinse by releasing a small amount of the rinse aid into the rinse water. Your dishwasher is designed to use a liquid rinse aid.
Cycle Selection Charts Select the wash cycle. If the door is latched, you will hear the dishwasher start and stop as the cycle control knob turns. This is normal and does not hurt the dishwasher. If you prefer, you can set the cycle control knob with the door unlatched.
If you have doubts about washing a particular item, check with the manufacturer to see if it is dishwasher safe.
