What’s New in Your Dishwasher
Energy
Performance
Congratulations on purchasing your water and energy efficient dishwasher! This dishwasher cleans by spraying the
dishes with water and pauses to allow the detergent to soak into and release the soils on the dishes. The cycles are
longer due to the soak and pauses for exceptional cleaning. Several models contain an optical water sensor. The
optical water sensor is used to determine the optimum water and energy consumption for great cleaning performance.
Efficient dishwashers run longer to save water and energy, just as driving a car slower saves on gas. The first cycle
using the sensor will run longer to calibrate the optical sensor.
Rinse Aid
Using rinse aid will optimize your drying and wash performance.
This dishwasher is specifically designed to be used with rinse aid
for improved drying performance and controlling buildup of hard
water deposits. Energy efficient dishwashers use less water and
energy, so they depend on the water “sheeting” action of rinse
aid for total optimal performance.
Dispensers vary by model
Detergent
The United States and Canada have passed a restriction limiting
the amount of phosphorus (phosphates) in the household
dishwasher detergents to no more than 0.5%, where previous
detergents contained 8.7%. Major manufacturers have
reformulated their dishwasher detergent for this change in
detergents as another step in eco-conscious awareness. With
these recent changes it is recommended to use tablets and
packs for convenience and improved performance.
Dispensers vary by model
Filtration System
Your dishwasher has the latest technology in dishwasher
filtration. This triple filtration system minimizes sound and
optimizes water and energy conservation while providing optimal
cleaning performance. Maintenance of your filters regularly will
sustain peak cleaning performance. We suggest you clean both
your upper and lower filter and rinse under running water at least
once a month.
