Before using your dishwasher, remove all hang tags, temporary 
labels, and packaging materials. Read this entire Use and Care 
Guide. You will find important safety information and useful 
operating tips.

1. Scrape large food soil and hard items (toothpicks or bones) 

from dishes.

2. Properly load the dishwasher. (See “Loading Your 

Dishwasher.”) Make sure nothing prevents the spray arm(s) 
from spinning freely.

3. Add detergent and check the rinse aid dispenser. Add rinse 

aid if needed. (See “Using Your Dishwasher.”)

4. Push door firmly closed. The door latches automatically. Run 

hot water at the sink nearest your dishwasher until the water 
is hot. (See “Dishwasher Efficiency Tips.”) Turn off water.

5. Select the desired cycle and options. (See “Using Your 

Dishwasher.”) 

The dishwasher starts filling when you press a cycle. You can 
select options as the machine is filling.

You can stop your dishwasher anytime during a cycle.

1. Open the door slightly. 

2. Wait for the spraying action to stop. Then open the door all 

the way, if needed. 

Close the door to continue the cycle.

Press CANCEL/DRAIN. A 2 minute drain starts. 

■

Remove leftover food, bones, toothpicks and other hard 
items from the dishes. It is not necessary to rinse the dishes 
before putting them in the dishwasher. The wash module 
removes food particles from the water. The module contains a 
chopping device which will reduce the size of food items.

NOTE: If hard items such as fruit seeds, nuts, and egg shells 
enter the wash module, you might hear chopping, grinding, 
crunching, or buzzing sounds. These sounds are normal 
when hard items enter the module. Do not let metallic items 
(such as pot handle screws) get into the wash module. 
Damage can occur.

■

Load dishes so soiled surfaces face the spray (down or 
inward). It is important for the water spray to reach all soiled 
surfaces.

■

Load dishes so they are not stacked or overlapping if 
possible. For best drying, water must be able to drain from all 
surfaces.

■

Make sure pot lids and handles, pizza pans, cookie sheets, 
etc., do not interfere with the spray arm rotation.

■

Run a rinse cycle to keep dishes moist if you do not plan to 
wash them soon. Foods like eggs, rice, pasta, spinach, and 
cooked cereals may be hard to remove if they are left to dry 
over a period of time.

To avoid thumping/clattering noises during operation:

■

Make sure lightweight load items are secured in the racks.

■

Make sure pot lids and handles, pizza pans, cookie sheets, 
etc., do not touch interior walls or interfere with the rotation of 
the spray arm.

■

Load dishes so they do not touch one another.

NOTE: For built-in models, keep sink drain plugs closed during 
dishwasher operation to prevent noise transfer through drains.
