POWER CLEAN* Washing System

Your dishwasher cleans by spraying a mixture of hot, clean water and detergent

against soiled surfaces of dishes, When a cycle is started, the dishwasher fills with water

to about the level of the heating element. This water is pumped through the rotating

spray arm&through the POWER CLEAN Module which removes food particles, and back

through the rotating spray arms. Soiled water is pumped out and replaced with clean

water during a cycle - the number of times depends on the cycle being used.

The POWER CLEAN* Module removes food

particles from the water, stores them, then

washes them down the drain.

Load dishes so soiled surfaces face pow-

erful spray from rotating arms.

Step-saving preparation for washing

It is not necessary

to rinse dishes before

putting them into the

dishwasher. Just re-

move large pieces,

bones, and other hard

items. The POWER

CLEAN Module will

remove food parti-

Hot water is a must

Hot water dissolves

and activates the

gent. Hot water dis-

have a reliable hot

water supply...

I. Maintain 1AO”F water supply at central

water heater. To check water temperature,

cles from the water. It contains a chopping de-

vice which will reduce the size of food items.

If hard items such as fruit seeds, nuts and

egg shells enter the POWER CLEAN Module,

you might hear chopping, grinding, crunch-

ing or buzzing sounds. Those sounds are nor-

mal when hard items enter the module. DO

NOT LET METALLIC ITEMS GET INTO THE POWER

CLEAN MODULE.

turn on hot water faucet nearest the dish-

washer. Let water run until it is as hot as pos-

sible, then check with a candy or meat

thermometer. If the temperature is too low,

have a qualified person raise the water

heater thermostat setting.

Use HI-TEMP WASHING Option. If water heat-

ing is needed, a thermostat will delay the

cycle until temperature reaches 145°F

(63’C). If water is hot enough,the cycle will

proceed with no delay. This lets you turn

down your water heater, if you choose,

without cutting back on hot water needed

for good dishwashing.

Proper loading

Always load dishes so soiled surfaces are reached by spray from rotating spray arms.

Water must be able to drain off completely for best drying results. Be careful to separate

items so spray can reach all surfaces.

Top rack loading

CUP AND GLASS LOAD \

The top rack is designed for cups, glasses

and smaller items.

Place so open ends face down for clean-

ing and draining.

load glasses in top rack only. Bottom

rack is not designed for glasses. Damage

may occur.

Place items in the rows between prongs.

Placing them over the prongs can lead

to breakage.

Be sure lightweight items are held firmly

in place.

China, crystal and other delicate items

must not touch another item during dish-

washer operation. Damage may occur.

ADJUSTABLE TOP RACK

The top rack does not have to be level.

LOWER

MIXED LOAD \

Raise or lower one or both sides to help

fit tall items in the top or bottom rack.

Turn knob clockwise to raise a side.

Turn knob counterclockwise to lower a side.

EXTRA-CAPACITY FOLD DOWN SHELF

Load plastic items only in the top rack.

Only plastic items marked “dishwasher

safe” are recommended.

Plastic items can be melted in the bottom

rack.

Small bowls, pans and other utensils can

be placed in the top rack.

An extra shelf on the right side of the top

rack can be folded down over short items

(cups, juice glasses, cereal bowls, etc.]

to hold extra items.

Adjust rack height if necessary (See

above].

To avoid chipping, do not let stemware

touch other items.

Items with cooked-on or dried-on foods should be loaded in the bottom rack with

soiled surfaces facing the spray. 5

Bottom rack loading

Place plates, soup bowls, etc., between

prongs and facing the spray.

Securely place heavily soiled cookware

face down in rack.

NOTE:

Do not load glasses, cups or plastic items

in the bottom rack.

When lower rack is removed, replace

with bumpers in front.

Load cookie sheets, cake pans and other

items at sides or back. Loading items in

front may keep water spray from reach-

ing detergent dispenser and silverware

basket.

Make sure pot handles and other items

do not stop rotation of either the upper or

lower spray arm. Spray arms must move

freely

A fold-down divider at back of rack can

be lowered to make room for deep bowls,

roasters, etc.

Loading silverware and cutlery baskets

Mix items in each section of the basket.

Small items- baby bottle caps, lar lids,

etc. - can be put in any section.

Make sure sharp items (knives, forks,

skewers, etc.) are put in point down.

The silverware

basket can be

loaded while

it’s in place on

the door, or it

can be taken

out for load-

ing on the

counter or table.

It can also be removed for easy unload-

ing. Always unload or remove the basket

before unloading the racks to avoid spill-

ing water droplets on the silverware.

To remove the

basket, slide it to-

ward the top of

the door-by the

handle. Lift it off

the holding but-

tons Replace it in

reverse order.

To open the basket, unhook the latch as

shown. Be sure the cover is

completely latched be-

fore pulling out the bottom

rack and before closing

the dishwasher door.

Remove and replace the

cutlery basket in the same way as the

silverware basket. Use the cutlery basket

for long items. Remove the basket and tip

contents onto a

cutting boar

to unload.

This can

help avoid

accidents

with sharp

points and

edges.

Adding detergent

The kind and amount of dishwasher detergent you use is an important part of

getting your dishes clean. Read this section carefully.

Use automatic dlsh-

washer detergent only.

Other detergents are

too mild and much too

sudsy to work in the

dishwasher.

Different brands of

dishwasher detergent

have different amounts

of phosphorus. Phospho-

rus softens water and

helps prevent Water

spots on dishes.

If water is hard and

phosphorus content is

low (8.7% or less], you

may need to use more

detergent or use a

brand with a higher

phosphorus content

(12% or higher).

Do not add detergent

until you are ready to

wash. Fresh, dry deter-

gent Is necessary for

best washing results.

Store detergent tightly in

a cool, dry place.

7 The detergent dispenser

The detergent dispenser has one section with

a cover and one without.

Put detergent in both sections for cycles with

two washes.

Put detergent in the covered section Only

for

cycles with one wash.

Push the cover down

until it is latched.

The cover opens auto-

matically when the main

’ wash starts. Detergent in

the open section falls

into the dishwasher

when the door is closed.

Find out your water’s hardness by

asking your local water depart-

ment, water softener company or

county extension agent.

Rinse aid dispenser

A rinse aid helps keep water from forming droplets and dry-

ing as spots. Keep the dispenser filled with a rinse aid such as

Jet-Dry.” A small amount is released automatically during the

final rinse of each cycle. Check the dispenser periodically to

see if it needs refilling.

The Fill Indicator Cap shows when it’s time to fill the rinse aid

dispenser. When the fill level is low, the center of the cap will

appear to be clear.

Keep the dispenser fill cap tightly closed.
