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

from dishes.

2. Properly load the dishwasher. (See “Dishwasher Loading.”) 

Make sure nothing keeps the spray arm(s) from spinning 
freely.

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

aid if needed. (See “Dishwasher Use.”)

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 “Dishwasher 

Use.”)

6. Press START/RESUME.

NOTE: If the door is opened during a cycle or the power is 
interrupted, the Start/Resume indicator flashes. The cycle will not 
resume until the door is closed, and Start/Resume is pressed.

Stopping Your Dishwasher

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 and press START/RESUME to continue the cycle.

OR

Press CANCEL/DRAIN. A 2-minute drain starts. 

 DISHWASHER LOADING

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. 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 eggshells 
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.

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 such as eggs, rice, pasta, spinach, 
and cooked cereals may be hard to remove if they are left to 
dry over a period of time.

Quiet operating tips

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 avoid noise transfer through drains.
