WARNING!
For your safety, the information in this manual must be
followed to minimize the risk of fire or explosion, electric
shock, and to prevent property damage, personal injury,
or death.
Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in
a water heater that has not been used for two weeks or
more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE.
If the hot water has not been used for two weeks or more, prevent
the possibility of damage or injury by turning on all hot water
faucets and allow them to run for several minutes. Do this before
using any electrical appliance which is 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 or use an open
flame or appliance during this process.

CAUTION:
To prevent minor injury or property damage
■Contents washed in
Anti-bacterial mode, if
available, may be hot to
the touch. Use care
before handling.
■Using a
detergent
that is not
specifically
designed for dishwashers will
cause the dishwasher to fill
with suds.
■If your dishwasher
is connected to a
wall switch, ensure
that the switch is
on prior to use.
■On dishwashers with
electronic controls, if you
choose to turn the switch

allow 5-10 seconds after
turning the switch on before
touching START/RESET to
allow the control to reboot.
■Non-Dishware Items: Do not
wash items such as electronic
air cleaner filters, furnace
filters and paint brushes in
your dishwasher. Damage to
dishwasher and discoloration
or staining of dishwasher
may result.
■Close supervision is necessary
if this appliance is used by or
near children.

About the unicouple.
Before Operating the Dishwasher the First Time
Attach the faucet adapter. The special faucet adapter
supplied with your dishwasher must be assembled to
the sink faucet before you can use your dishwasher.
The faucet adapter is designed to fit standard spouts
having internal or external threads. You will find the
adapter and two washers in the faucet adapter packet in
your dishwasher.
To install faucet adapter, first remove the old aerator or
trim ring on your faucet spout.
If faucet has external threads: Insert the thinner of the
two washers into the faucet adapter and attach it to the
faucet spout.
Tighten with pliers.
If faucet has internal threads: Insert both of the washers
into the faucet adapter and attach it to the faucet spout.
Tighten with pliers.
If the faucet adapter threads do not match your faucet
spout, your local hardware or plumbing supply store
normally has additional fittings to adapt your faucet
spout to the special faucet adapter.
NOTE: A sink spray attachment hose can burst if it is installed
on the same sink with your dishwasher. We suggest that you
disconnect the sink spray attachment if your sink has one and
plug the hole.

How to Connect the Unicouple
Pull Unicouple and its hoses completely out from
storage compartment located at rear of dishwasher
and attach it to the faucet adapter.
Attach the Unicouple connector to the faucet
adapter by depressing the collar at the top of the
connector. When Unicouple is all the way up onto
the adapter, release the collar. It will then snap into
position to lock the Unicouple in place.
The Unicouple’s small hose carries water from the
faucet to the dishwasher. Its large hose carries drain
water to the sink. Be sure Unicouple is pointing
toward the sink bowl drain opening and the sink
drain is open for water that will drain from your
dishwasher. If your dishwasher drains into a
disposer, operate the disposer until it is completely
empty before starting the dishwasher.
Turn hot water fully on before starting the
dishwasher.
