PO WER 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.

Bottom rack loading l Place plates, soup bowls, etc., between prongs and facing the spray. l Securely place heavily soiled cookware face down in rack. NOTE: l Do not load glasses, cups or plastic items in the bottom rack. . When lower rack is removed, replace with bumpers in front.
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 dish- I- washer detergent only. Other detergents are too mild and much too sudsy to work in the dishwasher.
Starting your dishwasher Six program pads, a hidden LOCK-OUT pad and the electronic display allow you to program and monitor the dishwasher’s operation. A program- ming tone sounds each time a pad is touched un- der normal operation. When first installed, “PF” will show on the display.

Selecting an option Options can be selected by touching the OPTIONS pad. Each touch of the pad advances the display to the next option. There are three options available: AIR DRY HEAT DRY and HI AIR DRY The AIR DRY option helps save energy, but the dishes take longer to dry (overnight).

Energy saving tips You can help save energy if you: Wash full loads. Running a half-filled dish- washer uses the same amount of electricity and hot water as a fully loaded machine. Air dry dishes when you don’t need a rapid drying cycle. Allow longer drying times (overnight).
