IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION

READ ALL INSTRUCTIONS BEFORE USING SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING
For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire, explosion, electric shock, and to prevent property damage, personal injury, or death.
WARNING
PROPER INSTALLATION AND MAINTENANCE
This dishwasher must be properly installed and located in accordance with the Installation Instructions before it is used. If you did not receive an Installation Instructions sheet with your dishwasher, you can receive one by visiting GEAppliances.com. In Canada, visit www.GEAppliances.ca.

• Connect the dishwasher/appliance to a grounded metal, permanent wiring system; or run an equipment-grounding conductor with the circuit conductors and connect to the equipment-grounding terminal or lead of the appliance.
• 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 appliance is properly grounded.
• Dispose of discarded appliances and shipping or packing material properly.
• Do not attempt to repair or replace any part of your dishwasher unless it is specifically recommended in this manual. All other servicing should be referred to a qualified technician.
• Use only cord kit WX09X70910 (5.4 ft) or WX09X70911 (7.9 ft) or hard-wire to building electrical. Failure to follow this instruction, could result in risk of fire and personal injury.
• To minimize the possibility of electric shock, disconnect this appliance from the power supply before attempting any maintenance.

NOTE: Turning the dishwasher off does not disconnect the appliance from the power supply. We recommend having a qualified technician service your appliance.
WARNING
WHEN USING YOUR DISHWASHER, FOLLOW BASIC PRECAUTIONS, INCLUDING THE FOLLOWING:

• Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this Owner’s Manual.
• Use only detergents or wetting agents recommended for use in a dishwasher and keep them out of reach of children. Using a detergent that is not specifically designed for dishwashers will cause the dishwasher to fill with suds.
• Locate sharp items so that they are not likely to damage the door seal.
• Load sharp knives with the handles up to reduce the risk of cut-type injuries.
• Do not wash plastic items unless marked dishwasher safe or the equivalent. For plastic items not so marked, check the manufacturer’s recommendations.
• Do not touch the heating element during or immediately after use.
• Detailed grounding instructions can be found in the “PREPARE ELECTRICAL WIRING” section of the Installation Instructions.
• Do not operate your dishwasher unless all enclosure panels are properly in place.
• Do not tamper with controls.
• Do not abuse, sit on or stand on the door or dish rack of dishwasher.
• To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to play with, on or inside this appliance at any time.
• Do not store or use combustible materials including gasoline or other flammable liquids or vapors in the vicinity of this or any other appliance.
• Small parts, such as rack clips and filter retaining posts, can be a choke hazard to small children if removed from the dishwasher. Keep out of reach of small children.

WATER HEATER SAFETY
WARNING
Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a water heater that has not been used for two or more weeks. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water has not been used for two or more weeks, prevent the possibility of damage or injury by turning on all hot water faucets and allowing them to run for several minutes. Do this before using any electrical appliance connected to the hot water system. This simple procedure will allow any built- up hydrogen gas to escape. Since the gas is flammable, do not smoke, use an open flame, or use the appliance during this process.

RISK OF CHILD ENTRAPMENT
WARNING
PROPER DISPOSAL OF THE DISHWASHER
Junked or abandoned dishwashers are dangerous…even if they will sit for “just a few days.” If you are getting rid of your dishwasher, please follow the instructions below to help prevent accidents.

• Do not allow children to play with, on, or inside this or any discarded appliance.
• Take off the door of the washing compartment.

TO PREVENT MINOR INJURY AND PROPERTY DAMAGE
CAUTION

• During or after wash cycle, contents may be hot to the touch. Use care before handling.
• Close supervision is necessary if this appliance is used by or near children. Do not allow children to play around the dishwasher when closing the door, closing the upper rack, or while vertically adjusting the upper rack due to the possibility of small fingers being pinched.
• Non-Dishware Items: Do not wash items such as electronic air cleaner filters, furnace filters and paint brushes in your dishwasher. Damage to the dishwasher and discoloration or staining of the dishwasher may result.
• Load light-weight, plastic items so they do not become dislodged and drop to the bottom of the dishwasher—they might come into contact with the heating element and be damaged.

Operating Instructions

1. Load Dishwasher – For best dishwashing results, follow the rack loading guidelines found in the complete Owner’s Manual – See the Contact Us section.

   Normal/Medium| This cycle is meant for daily, regular, or typical use to completely wash a full load of normally soiled dishes and is designed to conserve both water and energy. NOTE: Normal/Medium was used to rate the energy efficiency of this dishwasher.
   Quick/1-Hour Wash| This cycle was designed to wash loosely soiled dishes in 1 hour. Heated dry will add 65-105 minutes.
   Light| This cycle is for light to medium soiled dishes but because of its lower final rinse temperature, will provide limited dry performance. It is safe for china and crystal with no options selected.
   Rinse| (on some models) For rinsing partial loads to be washed later. Do not use detergent. Detergent is not dispensed during Rinse cycle
5. Select Options – The light by the selected pad will be lit to indicate which Option has been selected.
   Temp/Boost| (on some models) This option increases the temperature to help clean heavily soiled dishes and may increase the overall cycle time. Option may be turned On or Off during the wash cycle. Wash temp also increases the final rinse temperature which can improve dry performance
   ---|---
   Dry/Dry Boost| Off – Shuts off the drying option. Dishes air dry naturally and energy is saved. Open the dishwasher door to speed drying.

   Ultra/Extra/High (on some models) -This option can be selected by pressing the Dry/Dry Boost pad twice to illuminate the Ultra/Extra/High light. It will add additional time to your drying option, further enhancing the dishwasher’s performance for difficult to dry items.
   Steam-Sani/Presoak-Sani/ Sanitize| This option raises the water temperature in the final rinse to sanitize your dishware and improve dry performance. The cycle length will vary depending on the temperature of your inlet water. NOTE: This option is monitored for sanitization requirements. If the cycle is interrupted during or after the main wash portion or if the incoming water temperature is so low that adequate water heating cannot be achieved, the sanitizing conditions may not be met. In these cases, the Sanitized light will not illuminate at the end of the cycle. Utilizing this option will modify the cycle to meet the requirements of Section 6, NSF 184 for soil removal and sanitization efficacy. NOTE: NSF certified residential dishwashers are not intended for licensed food establishments.
   Bottle Jets| (on some models) This option increases the time that the bottle jets are on and may add up to 23 minutes to the cycle time.
   Use this to wash difficult to clean, dishwasher safe baby bottles, sport bottles, tall coffee cups, etc.
   Zones/Wash Zones| (on some models) Selecting either the Upper or Lower Zones/Wash Zones will target dishwashing of just one rack. This will shorten the the cycle time and conserve energy. This option can be used when there is only half a load of dishes.

Filters
Inspect and clean the filters periodically. This should be done every other month or more depending on usage. If there is a decrease in wash performance or dishes feel gritty, this is also an indication the filters need to be cleaned.

Rinse filter with warm soapy water and use a sponge to carefully remove any stubborn particles. Scrubbing with scouring pads or brushes can damage the filter. Once cleaned, replace the Ultra-Fine Filter, and twist clockwise to lock in place.

Fine Filter

Twist each of the two retaining posts located toward the back bottom of the tub counterclockwise and remove the Fine Filter. Rinse filter with warm soapy water.

Once cleaned, replace the Fine Filter and the Ultra-Fine Filter. Twist the two retaining posts clockwise to lock in place.
WARNING
The retaining posts can be a choke hazard for small children if WARNING removed from the dishwasher. Keep out of reach of children.
