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 and spray arms. Separated soil particles go down the drain as the water is pumped out and replaced with clean water.

The number of water fills will vary with the cycle being used.

Dish Preparation

Scrape away large pieces of food, bones, pits, toothpicks, etc. The continuous filtered wash system will remove the 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 the dishwasher is to be operated at once it is best to rinse off these food soils.
If the dishwasher drains into a food disposer, be sure disposer is completely empty before starting dishwasher.

Loading the Top Rack

You can place the items in the top rack randomly or in an orderly fashion.
The image below shows how to load the top rack for 14 place settings:

1. Large spoons
2. Knives
3. Small forks
4. Spoons
5. Large forks
6. Forks
7. Small spoons

Loading the Upper Rack

The upper rack is designed for cups, glasses, small plates, bowls and plastic items marked safe etc.
For best results, place the bowls, cups, glasses, sauce pans with soiled surface facing down or toward the center. Tilt slightly for better drainage.

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 rack. (Check this by rotating the middle spray arm by hand.)

Loading the Bottom Rack

The bottom rack is designed to load plates, soup bowls, plates, saucers and cookware. The adjustable rack space will allow you to load maximum 13 inch items.

Large items should be placed along the edge so they do not interfere with the middle spray arm rotation, and make sure they not prevent the detergent dispenser from opening.
Large items should be turned so that the inside faces downward, and make sure these items do not interfere with the lower spray arm rotation.

The fold-downtines in the bottom rack make it easy to load those extra large and hard-to-fit items. The tines may be left up for normal use or folded down for more flexible loading. Fold down for more space to load large pots or pans.

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.

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.

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, try to keep it full, but do not over fill.

1. Open the door, turn the dispenser cap to left and lift it out.

2. Add rinse agent until the indicator point to max

3. You can adjust the amount of the rinse aid released during the rinse operation, the greater number indicates the larger amount of rinse aid released.
