GETTING
started
WITH YOUR FRIGIDAIRE GALLERY DISHWASHER
BEFORE YOU START
Set up your dishwasher
Make sure the top rack, bottom rack, and silverware basket are in place prior
to operating the dishwasher. See OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS in the Use & Care
Manual.
Fill Rinse Aid dispenser
Rinse aid greatly improves drying and reduces water spots. Twist off the rinse
aid dispenser cap and fill until the indicator reaches full, then replace the
cap.
If installed with a garbage disposal
Ensure the knock-out plug is removed so the dishwasher can properly drain. See
the Installation Instructions for further details.
YOU’RE IN CONTROL
Your dishwasher controls
To begin using your dishwasher, open the door and select one of the cycle
options from the control panel. The Wash and Dry settings can be adjusted
based on the cycle chosen. Indicator lights illuminate as each cycle or option
is selected.
-
Select HEAVY WASH† for heavily soiled loads of pots, pans, casserole dishes, and dinnerware.
-
Select NORMAL WASH† for light to heavily soiled loads.
-
Select QUICK WASH (34 minutes) for lightly soiled loads only.
-
Select CHINA CRYSTAL for lightly soiled China, Crystal, or other delicate items.
-
Select TOP RACK† for light to heavily soiled small loads in the upper rack.
-
ENERGY SAVER† uses less energy by washing lightly soiled loads with less water and the air dry setting.
-
Select RINSE ONLY for rinsing dishware that will be washed later.
-
The FAVORITE CYCLE program saves preferred cycles and options to a one-touch control. See Use & Care Manual for more information.
† Cycle uses a soil sensing feature to determine the best wash performance. The soil sensing feature automatically engages when selecting the HEAVY, NORMAL, TOP RACK, or ENERGY SAVER wash cycles.
-
START/Cancel starts or cancels a cycle. To start the cycle, press the START/Cancel button and immediately close the dishwasher door. To cancel the cycle, open the dishwasher door and press the START/Cancel button until the cycle and option LEDs turn off.
-
The STATUS WINDOW displays the remaining time in the cycle, delay time setting, or “close door” reminder.
-
The INDICATOR LIGHTS provide cycle status information showing Delayed (delay start)/, Clean (clean non-sanitized) and Sanitized (clean with sanitized option).
-
WASH PRESSURE provides the choice of Scour (extra heavy soil), Surge (heavy to normal soil), or Spray (light soil).
-
WASH TEMP provides the choice of Sanitize, High or Normal water temperature.
-
DRY provides the choice of MaxBoost™ (extended dry time), Heat (normal dry time), or Air (air dry only). Press and hold the Dry button until the lock icon comes on to lock the dishwasher controls. Press and hold the Dry button until the lock icon goes off to unlock the controls.
-
DELAY TIME sets a delayed starting time to begin the wash cycle from 1-24 hours.
QUICK CARE
A little love goes a long way
Your Dishwasher has a glass trap filter to catch excess food particles. Clean
the trap monthly to keep your dishwasher working as expected. See Emptying the
glass trap below.
Be gentle
Clean the interior with warm water and mild soap using a dishcloth or sponge.
Use Frigidaire ReadyClean™ Stainless Steel cleaner, available on
Frigidaire.com, and wipe with the grain to keep the
exterior clean and shiny.

Emptying the glass trap.
- Press down on the center of the wash arm and rotate the glass trap handle clockwise to disengage.
- Lift the spray arm and glass trap out of the dishwasher.
- Empty the glass trap.
- Place the assembly back into position, press down on the arm at the center and rotate the glass trap handle counterclockwise back into place.
- Avoid damage and verify that the glass trap and wash arm are snapped in place. See the Use & Care Manual for more information.
FAQs
Why won’t my dishwasher start?****
– To start a new wash cycle or resume a cycle after adding a dish, press the START button immediately before closing the dishwasher door. If the door remains open after pressing the button, the unit will not start. Open the door, press the START button again and immediately close the door.
What do I do if my dishes are not as dry as expected?****
– Try using a rinse aid if your dishes are not as dry as you like. These products help eliminate spots and residue and help with drying and cleaning performance. You can also select the MaxBoost™ setting which extends drying cycle time while improving drying performance.
Why aren’t my dishes clean?****
– Avoid nesting dishes and silverware or overcrowding the dishwasher. Proper loading of racks and silverware baskets improves cleaning and drying performance. See the Use & Care manual for proper loading procedures.
