OPERATION
DISH PREPARATION
• Prior to loading the dishwasher, scrape away large pieces of
food, bones, pits, toothpicks, etc. The continuously filtered wash
system will remove remaining food particles.
• Burned-on foods should be loosened before loading. Empty
liquids from glasses and cups.
• Foods such as mustard, mayonnaise, vinegar, lemon juice, and tomato-based
products may cause discoloration of stainless steel and plastics if allowed to sit for a
long period of time. Unless you plan to run the dishwasher immediately, it is best to
rinse off these food soils.
• If the dishwasher drains into a food/garbage disposal, be sure the disposal is
completely empty before starting dishwasher.
LOADING THE UPPER BASKET
• The upper basket is designed for cups, glasses, small plates, bowls, and plastic items
marked dishwasher-safe.
• For best results, place the bowls, cups, glasses, and sauce pans with soiled surfaces
facing down or toward the center. Tilt slightly for better drainage.
LOADING THE LOWER BASKET
• The lower basket is designed to load plates, soup bowls, plates, saucers, and
cookware. The adjustable basket space will allow you to load items with a maximum
height of 11”.
• Make sure the loaded dishes do not interfere with the rotation of the
middle spray arm, which is located at the bottom of the upper basket
(check this by rotating the middle spray arm by hand).
• Large items should be placed along the edge so they do not interfere
with the middle spray arm rotation. Make sure they do not prevent
the detergent dispenser from opening.
• Large items should be turned so the inside faces downward. Make
sure these items do not interfere with the lower spray arm rotation.
