Very Important Information - Read
Before Operating Your Dishwasher!
Normal Operating Sounds
This dishwasher does not sound like most
dishwashers -
IT’S QUIETER
.
Your dishwasher with it’s Precision Direct
Wash System has many enhancements to
reduce it’s sound level. Still, it is normal to
hear some of what is going on inside. The
wash cycles include several instances of
water entering the unit (splashing), the wash
pump running to spray water on the dishware
(motor & splashing) and the drain pump
running to discharge the dirty water and soils.
Variations in the pumping/spraying sounds are
normal. During a cycle the pump switches on
and off many times, and operation switches
back and forth between wash arms to provide
the best cleaning performance.
PLEASE BE ADVISED: If you compare
this dishwasher to previous models, you
may be surprised at what you DON’T
hear.
NOTE
Why Energy Efficient Units run long cycles:
Several factors are important to washing
dishware. The energy use of the dishwasher
was reduced by applying more of the factors that
don’t use so much energy and less of the ones
that use more. As a result, you will see that the
wash cycles take longer.
NOTE
Not all cycles and options available on all
models.
NOTE
The dishwasher is programmed to remember
your last cycle so you do not have to reset
each time. To start the dishwasher using
the same cycle and options selected on the
previous wash, just press the START/CANCEL
pad.
NOTE
NOTE
If the dishwasher door is opened while the
unit is running, the START/CANCEL pad must
be pressed and the door shut immediately
to return the unit to the selected cycle and
option, this must happen within 10 minutes
for the unit to continue the cycle.
