Clean EQ Wash System removable filters to maintain
peak performance.
Cleaning the filters
periodically helps keep the
dishwasher working at peak
performance. The filters can
be found at the bottom center
of your dishwasher.
See the “Filtration System”
section for information on
removing and maintaining the
filters.
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 or ProDry™
option will provide best drying
and avoid excessive moisture
in the dishwasher interior.
Express 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
Express Wash will clean your dishes using
slightly more water and energy. Select the
Heat Dry or ProDry™ option to speed drying
times (adds approximately 27 to 35 minutes
to the Express Wash cycle)
.
or
ProWash™ cycle for optimal cleaning
The most advanced and versatile cycle.
ProWash™ cycle senses the load size, soil
amount, and toughness of soil, to adjust the
cycle for optimal cleaning using only the
amount of water and energy needed. The
ProWash™ and Tough cycles are
recommended for tough soil. No need to
prerinse dishes; just scrape and load.
ProScrub
®
Option to clean baked-on food
(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.
The upper rack has
two spray zones in
the front corners to
reach into deeper or
oddly shaped items.

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”
and “Add Rinse Aid” in the “Dishwasher Use” section, to
determine the amount of detergent needed based on your
water hardness.
