START-UP GUIDE
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.
Rinse aid is essential for good drying. Be sure to fill the
dispenser before you use your new dishwasher. Each filling
will last about 1 to 3 months depending on your usage.
2.
Scrape large food soil and hard items (toothpicks or bones)
from dishes.
3.
Properly load the dishwasher. (See “Dishwasher Loading.”)
Load dishes with space in between so water will reach the
soiled surfaces. Make sure nothing keeps the spray arm(s)
from spinning freely.
4.
Add detergent. Always use a quality brand detergent. (See
“Dishwasher Use.”)
5.
Run hot water at the sink nearest your dishwasher until the
water is hot. (See “Dishwasher Efficiency Tips.”) Turn off
water.
6.
Press the desired cycle and option selections. (See
“Dishwasher Use.”)
7.
On top control models, press START/RESUME and firmly
close the door. On split control models, firmly close the door
and press START/RESUME.
You can also press START/RESUME to repeat the same cycle
and options as the previous cycle.
IMPORTANT:
The Start/Resume light will flash if the door is
opened during a cycle. Power interruptions during a cycle
may also cause the Start/Resume light to flash. Press START/
RESUME to continue a cycle.
NOTE:
On top control models, if the door is not closed within
3 seconds of pressing Start/Resume, press START/RESUME
again.
8.
When the door is firmly closed, it latches automatically.
