Manual

WARNING: To reduce the risk of fire, electrical

shock, or serious injury, observe the following:

1 This dishwasher is provided with Installation Instructions and this Use and Care Manual

(operating instructions). Read and understand all instructions before using the dish-

washer.

2 This appliance must be grounded to a metal, permanent wiring system, or an equipment

grounding conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and connected to the equip-

ment grounding terminal or lead on the dishwasher. See the Installation Instructions

included with this dishwasher for more information on electrical requirements.

3 Use this dishwasher only for its intended function, which is the washing of household dish-

ware and kitchenware rated as dishwasher safe.

4 Use only detergents or rinsing agents recommended for use in a dishwasher, and keep

them out of the reach of children.

5 When loading items to be washed:

• Locate sharp items so they are not likely to damage the door seal.

• Load knives and other sharp utensils with their HANDLES UP to reduce the risk of

cut-type injuries.

• Do not wash plastic items unless they are marked “dishwasher safe” or the

equivalent. For plastic items not so marked, check the manufacturer’s recom-

mendations.

• Do not operate your dishwasher unless all enclosure panels are in place.

• Do not tamper with or override controls and interlocks.

6 Do not abuse, sit or stand on the door or dish racks of the dishwasher.

7 To reduce risk of injury, do not allow children to play in or on the dishwasher.

8 When children become old enough to operate the appliance, it is the responsibility of the

parents/legal guardians to ensure the children are instructed in safe practices by qualified

persons.

9 Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot water system that has

not been used for two weeks or more. Hydrogen gas is explosive. Before using a dish-

washer that is connected to a hot water system that has been unused for two weeks or

longer, turn on all hot water faucets and let the water flow from each for several minutes.

This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is explosive, do not smoke or

use an open flame during this time.

10 Remove the dishwasher door to the washing compartment when removing an old dish-

washer for service or discarding.

11 To avoid floor damage and possible mold growth, do not allow wet areas to remain around

or under the dishwasher.

12 Protect your dishwasher from the elements. Protect against freezing to avoid possible

damage to the fill valve. Damage caused by freezing is not covered by the warranty.

This appliance must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding

will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric cur-

rent. This appliance is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor.

• Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in risk

of electric shock. Check with a qualified electrician or service representative if

you are in doubt whether the appliance is properly grounded.

Do I need to rinse my dishes before putting them in the dishwasher? Verified

Rinsing the dishes is not necessary, but you do need to remove any large, hard and fat leftovers. These could clog the drain over time.

Can I open the dishwasher while it is running? Verified

Most dishwashers are equipped with a water stop, making the program stop immediately when the door is opened and meaning no water will come out. With some models this can cause problems over time. With built-in dishwashers it is possible that frequently opening the dishwasher while running may cause water damage to surrounging cabinets because of the steam that is released.

Should I open the dishwasher after it finished running to have the dishes dry quicker? Verified

This depends on the type of dishwasher and the location of the dishwasher. Some dishwashers are equipped with a feature that dries the dishes after the washing program. In that case opening the dishwasher will have no added value. With built-in dishwashers it is possible that frequently opening the dishwasher while running may cause water damage to surrounging cabinets because of the steam that is released.

After the dishwaser has finished its cycle, the plastic dishes are still wet but the rest isn't. Why is that? Verified

Plastic is a bad conductor of heat, allowing the products to cool down quickly. The moisture that remains on it then evaporates far less than for example on ceramics or metal.

Can I connect a dishwasher to an extension cord? Verified

Appliances that require large amounts of power, like a dishwasher, can not be connected to all extension cords. See what the power usage of the dishwasher is, which is indicated in Watt, and check if the extension cord cn handle this. There are extension cords with thicker cables that are made to handle larger appliances.

Can I put wooden objects such as spatulas and cutting boards in the dishwasher? Verified

No. Wooden objects can get damaged or warped in a dishwasher. Also, the wood fibres that come free might damage the dishwasher. Wooden cutting boards are often made with glue that can come loose after being in the dishwasher several times.

Can I put pans with Teflon in the dishwasher? Verified

Yes, you can. However, the pan will wear faster than when it is cleaned by hand. When cleaning a pan with Teflon by hand, never use a scourer but use a soft sponge or cloth.

The inside of most dishwashers is made of stainless steel and are not affected by scratches.
