IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

Throughout this manual, you’ll see Warning and Caution notes. These warnings, cautions, and important safety instructions do not cover all possible conditions and situations that may occur. It’s your responsibility to use common sense, caution, and care when installing, maintaining, and operating the dishwasher. ZLINE is not liable for damages resulting from improper use or installation.
NOTE: These warning signs are here to prevent injury to you and others. Please follow them explicitly. After reading this manual, keep it in a safe place for future reference.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

  • Hazards or unsafe practices that may result in severe personal injury or death.
  • Hazards or unsafe practices that may result in personal injury or property damage.
  • To reduce risk of fire, explosion, electric shock, or personal injury when using the dishwasher, follow these basic safety precautions.
  • Make sure the machine is grounded to prevent electric shock.
  • Installation and repair should be performed by a qualified installer, such as an insured licensed plumber or contractor. Installation performed by non-professionals could be dangerous and result in improper installation and property damage, which may void the warranty.
  • Install and store the dishwasher inside, away from exposure to weather

CAUTION Do not install the dishwasher near electrical components. Keep the dishwasher away from open flames.

PROPER INSTALLATION

  • Please have a professional install your dishwasher properly by following the instructions included in the installation manual provided with this appliance.
  • Do not install the dishwasher on a carpet, as this is a fire hazard.
  • Do not install the dishwasher in a location where the water may freeze (where the temperature falls below 32°F). Frozen water in the hoses or pipes may damage the dishwasher.
  • The water supply inlet temperature should be between 120°F and 149°F.
  • Dispose of all packing materials for this appliance properly.
  • The dishwasher must be properly grounded or it can result in a risk of electric shock. A permanent electrical connection is allowed.
  • Do not operate the appliance if it’s damaged, malfunctioning, partially disassembled, or has missing or broken parts. If the unit arrives damaged, contact ZLINE at 1-614-777-5004 for help.

BASIC PRECAUTIONS BEFORE USE

  • Read all instructions and precautions in both this user manual and the provided installation manual before using the dishwasher.
  • Please note this user manual does not cover every possible condition and situation that may occur. A qualified technician or plumber must install the product.
  • Use the dishwasher only for the intended functions described in this manual.
  • When loading dishes and other items to be washed:
    • Load sharp items and knives so they do not damage the door seal and tub.
    • Load sharp items and knives with the handles up to reduce the risk of injury.
  • Do not wash plastic food storage receptacles (e.g. Tupperware) or other items unless they are marked dishwasher-safe. If they are not marked, check with the manufacturer for recommendations, as items that are not dishwasher-safe may melt and create a potential fire hazard.
  • If the dishwasher drains into a food/garbage disposal, make sure the disposal is completely empty before running the dishwasher.
  • Do not tamper with the control panel on the dishwasher.
  • Do not operate your dishwasher unless all enclosure panels are in the proper place.
  • Do not touch the heating element during or immediately after any washing, sanitizing, or drying cycle to reduce the risk of injury.
  • To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to play in or on a dishwasher. Keep young children and pets away from the dishwasher when it is operating. Do not let children abuse, sit, or stand on the door or racks of the dishwasher.
  • Do not use the dishwasher if it has a damaged power line or plug. Do not plug the dishwasher into a damaged outlet. Failure to observe these instructions may result in electrical shock or death.
  • Use only detergents or rinse agents recommended for use in a dishwasher. Keep them out of the reach of children and away from pets.
  • Some dishwasher detergents are strongly alkaline. They can be extremely dangerous if swallowed. Avoid contact with the skin and eyes and keep children away from the dishwasher when the door is open.
  • Under certain rare conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot water system that has not been used for two weeks or more. If the hot water system has not been used for such a period, before using the dishwasher, turn on all hot water faucets and let water flow from each for several minutes. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. Hydrogen gas is flammable. Do not smoke or use an open flame during this time to reduce risk of fire, injury, or death.
  • Do not store or use combustible materials, gasoline, or other flammable vapors and liquids in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
  • Remove the door to the washing compartment when removing an old dishwasher from service or discarding it.
  • This dishwasher is intended for residential use only and should not be used in commercial establishments. This appliance is not applicable for outdoor usage. The manufacturer disclaims responsibility for damage or injury caused by improper use of this appliance.

WARNING

For your safety, please follow the information in this manual to minimize the risk of fire, explosion, electric shock, and to help prevent property damage or personal injury.

OPERATION

ELECTRIC SHOCK HAZARD

  • As with all equipment using electricity, water, and moving parts, potential hazards exist. To safely operate this appliance, become familiar with its operation and exercise care when using it.
  • The dishwasher must be properly grounded by a professional technician. Never connect it to an ungrounded outlet. Follow the instructions included in the installation manual for this appliance.
  • Do not use an extension cord for this appliance.
  • To reduce the risk of electric shock, fire, or injury to persons, the installer must ensure that dishwasher is completely enclosed at the time of installation.
  • Only connect the dishwasher to the power supply when all installation and plumbing work is complete. Before installation or service, disconnect the power supply to the work area by unplugging the unit, “tripping” the circuit breaker, or removing the fuse.

WARNING

Do not use the dishwasher until it is correctly installed. Do not push down on the door when it is open. Do not place excessive weight on the open door.

WATER CONNECTION SAFETY

  • Make sure the professional installing your dishwasher uses a new water supply line. Old lines are susceptible to breakage because they become hardened and may cause property damage due to a water leakage.
  • The dishwasher must be connected to a hot water supply with a temperature between 120°F and 149°F. This temperature range provides the best washing result and shortest cycle time. Temperature should not exceed 149°F to prevent damage to dishes.
  • Ensure that the water supplied to the dishwasher does not freeze. Frozen water can damage the hoses, valves, pump, or other components.
  • Ensure that there are no visible water leaks during and after the first use of the appliance.
  • To avoid risk of injury, always use caution when opening the door during or following a wash cycle, as hot water or steam may escape.

NOTE: Specifications are subject to change without any notice for quality improvement purposes. The actual appearance of the dishwasher may differ from the illustrations in this manual.

FILTER SYSTEM
Your dishwasher has a multiple filter system. In the system, there are three mesh filters.

  • It can separate soiled water and clean water in different chambers.
  • The system helps your dishwasher get better performance with less water and less energy. See page 19 for how to clean the filters.

SMART WASH SYSTEM

  • Your dishwasher has a smart wash system. When a partial load of lightly soiled dishes is placed in the unit, a wash cycle similar to a short wash will automatically be performed.
  • When a full load of heavily soiled dishes is placed in the unit, a heavy wash cycle will automatically be performed. The appliance can determine the type of cycle required to clean the dishes and will clean more efficiently every time.ZLINE-Top-Control-Classic-Dishwasher-FIG 5

HOW YOUR DISHWASHER CLEANS

  • Your dishwasher cleans by spraying a mixture of hot water and detergent through the spray arms against soiled surfaces.
  • The dishwasher fills with water covering the filter area. Water is then pumped through the multiple filter system and spray arms. Separated soil particles go down the drain as the water is pumped out and replaced with clean water.
  • The number of times water fills inside the tub will vary with the cycle being used.

WASH CYCLE SELECTIONS

  • Cycle times are approximate and will vary with the options selected. Hot water is necessary to activate the detergent and melt fatty food soils.
  • An automatic sensor will check the incoming water temperature. If it is not at the appropriate temperature, the timer will delay the cycle to allow automatic water heating during the main wash.
  • When the HI-TEMP wash is selected, an even higher water temperature will be activated to handle heavier soil loads.

GETTING STARTED

  1. Load the dishwasher (see Dish Preparation and Loading sections, pages 14-16).
  2. Add detergent (see Filling the Detergent Dispenser, page 17).
  3. Add rinse aid (see Filling the Rinse Aid Dispenser, page 17).
  4. Select desired CYCLE (see Cycle Chart, page 13).
  5. Select desired OPTIONS (see Control Panel, page 10). The indicator light above the pad will glow when selected.

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”.

WARNING

  • 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.

LOADING THE LOWER BASKET

  • The lower basket is especially designed for dinner dishes, soup bowls, plates, pots, lids, casserole dishes, and plates.
  • Load large items such as pans and pots so their open sides face downwards. We recommend loading cups, stemware, and small plates in the upper basket.ZLINE-Top-Control-Classic-Dishwasher-FIG 21

LOADING THE UPPER BASKET

  • The upper basket has been designed for small plates, mugs, glasses, and plastic items marked dishwasher-safe. Load plates in two half rows so the front of each plate faces the back of the plate in front of it, and the open sides of the plates at the center of the dishwasher face each other.
  • Make sure loaded dishes do not interfere with the rotation of the spray arm located at the bottom of the upper basket (check this by rotating the nozzle by hand).
  • When loading dishes, pull the upper basket out completely so you can load it without striking the counter.ZLINE-Top-Control-Classic-Dishwasher-FIG 22

LOADING THE SILVERWARE BASKET

  • The silverware basket can be divided into three separate modules that can be used in both upper and lower racks.
    1. Spoons
    2. Knives
    3. Salad Forks
    4. Forks
    5. Large Spoons
    6. Large ForksZLINE-Top-Control-Classic-Dishwasher-FIG 23

WARNING

Do not let items extend or protrude though the bottom of the basket to avoid blocking the spray arm.

ADDING DISHES MID-CYCLE
To add or remove items after a wash cycle starts:

  1. Open the door slightly and wait a few seconds until wash action stops completely before opening.
  2. Add/remove the item(s).
  3. Close the door firmly to latch within 4 seconds and the cycle will resume.

CAUTION

TO AVOID BURNS OR OTHER INJURY: Slightly open the door and wait until spray arms and wash action fully stop. Hot water may splash out of the dishwasher. Failure to do this may result in injury.

WARNING

Use caution to not overload or stack dishes in the upper, lower or silverware baskets, as items may not clean or dry properly.

FILLING THE DETERGENT DISPENSER

  1. Open the detergent dispenser cap by pushing the detergent dispenser release button. NOTE: The flap should always open at the end of a dishwashing cycle.
  2. Add the recommended amount of detergent to the main wash detergent compartment.
  3. Close the flap and then press it down until it clicks shut.

FILLING THE RINSE AID DISPENSER

  • Rinse aid greatly improves drying and reduces water spots and filming. Without rinse aid, your dishes and dishwasher interior will have excessive moisture.
  • The heated dry option will not perform as well without rinse aid. The rinse aid dispenser, located next to the detergent cup, automatically releases a measured amount of rinse aid during the last rinse.
  • If the rinse aid is low, the rinse aid light is illuminated at the beginning and end of the cycle, indicating that it is time to refill.
  • NOTE: While rinse aid will assist in the drying process, the dishwasher is not designed to completely dry every dish. Some water will naturally accumulate in items that have reservoirs, such as plastic containers and the bottom of coffee mugs. This is a normal occurrence in nearly all dishwasher models.

WARNING

Your dishwasher is designed to use a liquid rinse aid. The use of rinse greatly improves drying performance after the final rinse. Do not use a solid or bar-type rinse aid. Under normal conditions, the rinse aid will last approximately one month. It is best to keep it full, but do not over fill.

MAINTENANCE AND CLEANING

FILLING THE RINSE AID RESERVOIR

  • Your dishwasher has been designed to use liquid rinse aid only.
  • Using a powdered rinse aid will clog the reservoir opening and cause the dishwasher to malfunction.
  • Rinse aid improves the drying performance of the dishwasher.

WARNING

Do not add regular detergent to the rinse aid reservoir. Do not fill the reservoir above the full level indicator. Excess rinse aid can overflow during the wash cycle.

  1. Remove the rinse aid reservoir cap by rotating it counterclockwise.

  2. Fill the rinse aid reservoir with rinse aid.
    Use the viewing port when filling the rinse aid reservoir.

  3. Add the rinse aid if the display screen shows “LSb”.

  4. Close the rinse aid reservoir cap by rotating it clockwise. Keeping your dishwasher clean improves its performance, reduces unnecessary repairs, and lengthens its life.

CLEANING THE EXTERIOR

  • It’s best to clean spills on the outside of your dishwasher as they occur. Use a soft, damp cloth on the control panel to gently wipe away spills and dust.
  • Do not use benzene, wax, thinner, chlorine bleach, or alcohol. These materials may discolor the inner walls and cause stains.
  • Do not clean the dishwasher by sprinkling or spraying water over it and avoid letting water come into contact with any of the electrical parts.
  • If your dishwasher has a stainless steel door panel, you can clean it with a stainless steel cleaner for home appliances or a similar product using a clean, soft cloth.

CLEANING THE INTERIOR

  • Clean the interior of your dishwasher periodically to remove any dirt or food particles. Wipe the inside of the dishwasher and the inner part of the door with a wet dishcloth.
  • We recommend filling the detergent dispenser with dish detergent and then running the dishwasher empty periodically using either the Normal or Rapid cycle with the sanitize option. This will keep your dishwasher clean.
  • If white spots and odor are still present in your dishwasher, run the Normal cycle with the dishwasher empty and without detergent until it flushes. Then, interrupt the cycle and put an 8-ounce cup of white vinegar into the lower basket. Close the dishwasher and let the cycle finish.

WARNING

Do not remove the tub’s front seal (the long rubber seal enclosing the opening of the dishwasher). Do not touch the heating element during or immediately after use.

CLEANING THE FILTERS

  1. Turn off the dishwasher.
  2. Rotate the filter insert counterclockwise to unfasten and then detach the filter insert.
  3. Remove the fine filter (flat, rectangular) and clean with water.
  4. Replace the filters before re-using the dishwasher.
