Manual

Tip Over Hazard

Do not use dishwasher until completely installed.

Do not push down on open door.

Doing so can result in serious injury or cuts.

WARNING

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

■

For a grounded, cord-connected dishwasher:

The dishwasher 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 current. The dishwasher is equipped with a cord

having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding

plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet

that is installed and grounded in accordance with all local

codes and ordinances.

WARNING:

Improper connection of the equipment-

grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock.

Check with a qualified electrician or service representative if

you are in doubt whether the dishwasher is properly

grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the

dishwasher; if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet

installed by a qualified electrician.

■

For a permanently connected dishwasher:

The dishwasher must be connected to a grounded metal,

permanent wiring system, or an equipment-grounding

conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and

connected to the equipment-grounding terminal or lead on

the dishwasher.

KEY USAGE TIPS

Filtration system

Your dishwasher has latest

technology in dishwasher filtration.

This filtration system minimizes

sound and optimizes water and

energy conservation while providing

superior cleaning.

The filter system consists of two

parts, an upper filter assembly and

lower filter.

IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to dishwasher, do not operate your

dishwasher without filters properly installed. Be sure lower filter is

securely in place and upper filter assembly is locked into place.

If upper assembly turns freely, it is not locked into place.

Heat Dry option

For heated drying, it is recommended to use the

Heat Dry option.

This option, with the use of the heater element, will

add time and heat to the end of the cycle.

Plastic items are less likely to deform when loaded

in the top rack.

Upper filter

assembly

Lower filter

Press Start/Resume every time

youaddadish.

IMPORTANT: If anyone opens the door (such as, for

adding a dish, even during the Delay Hours option),

Start/Resume must be pressed each time.

If Start/Resume is located on top of door: Push

door firmly closed within 4 seconds of pressing

Start/Resume. If door is not closed within 4 seconds,

the Start/Resume button LED will flash, an audible

tone will be heard, and cycle will not start.

Recommended detergent

The United States and

Canada have passed a

restriction limiting the

amount of phosphorus

(phosphates) in

household dishwasher

detergents. 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.

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.

What does '6th Sense' mean? Verified

Whirlpool appliances that are equipped with 6th Sense technology have sensors that ensure optimal operation of the machine. For example in dryers, these sensors measure the moisture left in the wash and stops the machine when everything is completely dry.

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.
