UnderstandingDishwasherSafety

You will be killed or seriously injured

if you don’t follow instructions.

You can be killed or seriously injured

if you don’t follow instructions.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

•Do not operate the 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 racks of the dishwasher.

•To reduce the risk of injury, do not

allow children to play in or on the

dishwasher.

•Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas

may be produced in a hot water system

that has not been used for two weeks

or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLO-

SIVE. If the hot water system has not

been used for such a period, before

using the dishwasher turn on all hot

water faucets and let the water flow

from each for several minutes. This will

release any accumulated hydrogen gas.

As the gas is flammable, do not smoke

or use an open flame during this time.

•Remove the door to the washing

compartment when removing an old

dishwasher from service or discarding it.

WARNING –When using the

dishwasher, follow basic precautions,

including the following:

•Read all instructions before using the

dishwasher.

•Use the dishwasher only for its

intended function.

•Use only detergents or rinse agents

recommended for use in a dishwasher

and keep them out of the reach of

children.

•When loading items to be washed:

1) Locate sharp items so that they

are not likely to damage the door

seal; and

2) Load sharp knives with the handles

up to reduce the risk of cut-type

injuries.

•Do not wash plastic items unless they

are 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.

Your safety and the safety of others is very important.

We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your

appliance. Always read and obey all safety messages.

This is the safety alert symbol.

This symbol alerts you to hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.

All safety messages will be preceded by the safety alert symbol and the

word “DANGER” or “WARNING.” These words mean:

wDANGER

wWARNING

All safety messages will identify the hazard, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury,

and tell you what can happen if the instructions are not followed.

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

•For a grounded, cord connected

dishwasher:

The dishwasher must be grounded. In

the event of a malfunction or breakdown,

grounding

will reduce the risk of

electric

shock by providing a path of least

resistance for electric current. The

dishwasher is equipped with a cord

having an equipment-grounding conduc-

tor and a grounding plug. The plug must

be plugged into an appropriate outlet that

is installed and grounded in accordance

with all local codes and ordinances.

WARNING –Improper connection of

the equipment-grounding conductor can

result in a risk of electric shock.

StartUpGuide

Before using your dishwasher

wWARNING

Electrical Shock Hazard

Electrically ground dishwasher.

Connect ground wire to green ground

connector in terminal box.

Do not use an extension cord.

Failure to follow these instructions

can result in death, fire, or

electrical shock.

•Remove all shipping plugs from hoses

and connectors (such as the cap on

the drain outlet) before installing. See

Installation Instructions for complete

information.

wWARNING

Tip Over Hazard

Do not use dishwasher until

completely installed.

Do not push down on open door.

Doing so can result in serious injury

or cuts.

•Install where dishwasher is protected

from the elements. Protect against

freezing to avoid possible rupture of fill

valve. Such ruptures are not covered by

the warranty. See “Storing your dish-

washer” in the “Caring for Your Dish-

washer” section for winter storage

information.

•Install and level dishwasher on a floor

that will hold the weight, and in an area

suitable for its size and use.

Check with a qualified electrician or

service representative if you are in

doubt whether the dishwasher is

properly grounded. Do not modify the

plug provided with the dishwasher; if it

will not fit the outlet, have a proper

outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

•For a permanently connected

dishwasher:

The dishwasher must be connected to a

grounded metal, permanent wiring

system, or an equipment-grounding

conductor must be run with the circuit

conductors and connected to the

equipment-grounding terminal or lead

on the dishwasher.

– SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS –

Using your new KITCHENAID* dishwasher is simple. Follow the steps below to get

started. For more information on specific steps and additional safety information, see

the page(s) next to the step you would like to know more about.

NOTE: Before using your dishwasher, remove all hang tags, temporary labels, and pack-

aging materials. Please also read the entire Use and Care Guide as it contains important

operating and safety information.

How to use your dishwasher

StartUpGuide

Fast and easy

start up

1. Load the dishwasher. See pages 8-13.

3. Add detergent. See pages 15-17.

4. Add rinse agent if needed. See page 18.

2. Spin the upper spray arm. It should turn

freely. Check the

lower spray arm

also to make sure

it turns freely.

START

5. Push door firmly when closing.

6. Run hot water at sink nearest dishwasher

until water is hot. Turn

off water. See page 23.

7. Press the desired Wash Selection pad.

See the “Cycle

selection chart” on

page 19. Then press

the desired Option

pad(s). See page 20

for “Option selections.”

8. Press the Start pad. The cycle will begin

(if Delay Hours has

not been selected).

NOTE: The dishwasher

remembers the last

cycle and option(s) that

were completed. You

only have to press the

Start pad if you want to

use the same cycle and

option(s). However, if the last cycle you

completed was Rinse Only, the dishwasher

will run the Normal cycle if you press the

Start pad.

This section tells you how to properly load your dishwasher for the best washing and

rinsing results.

Preparing to load the dishwasher

LoadingYourDishwasher

•Make sure pot lids and handles, pizza

pans, cookie sheets, etc., do not interfere

with the spray arm rotation.

•Run a Rinse Only cycle to keep dishes

moist if you do not plan to wash them soon.

Foods like eggs, rice, pasta, spinach, and

cooked cereals can be hard to remove if

they are left to dry.

•Scrape leftover food, bones, toothpicks,

and other hard items from dishes. It is not

necessary to rinse dishes before putting

them into the dishwasher.

•Load dishes so soiled surfaces face the

spray (down or inward). It is important for

the water spray to reach all soiled surfaces.

•Take care when loading heavy pots or pans

into the dishwasher. They can dent the

stainless steel interior of the door if they are

dropped or bumped.

The upper rack is designed for cups,

glasses, and other small items.

•Load cups and glasses in the upper rack

only, in the rows between the prongs.

Placing them over the prongs can cause

them to chip or break.

•China, crystal, and other delicate items

must not touch each other during dish-

washer operation. Damage can occur.

•Place items so open ends face down for

best cleaning and draining.

•Load plastic items securely in the upper

rack only. Wash only plastic items marked

“dishwasher safe.”

•Secure lightweight items so they don’t

overturn during washing. Wedge light-

weight items against one another or

overlap them with heavier dishes. (See

“Sure-Hold clips” later in this section.)

•Load bowls in the center section for

best stability.

•Racks with teal-colored tips can be

adjusted for different loads.

Sure-Hold cup shelf

Fold down the extra shelf on the top rack to

hold additional cups and glasses, or small

items like long utensils and spatulas.

FLEXI-SPLIT* fold down tines

The row of split tines on the right side of the

rack is adjustable to accommodate a variety

of dishes. These adjustable tines have teal-

colored tips.

•To adjust the front half, move the adjustor

at the front of the rack towards the right to

wedge plastic or other lightweight items

against the side of the rack. Move the

adjuster left to make room for larger

dishes.

•To adjust the back half, push the tines

down gently toward the center of the rack.

FLEXI-FOLD DOWN* tines

The row of tines on the left side of the rack

is also adjustable. Push the tines down

gently toward the center of the rack to make

room for larger dishes.

The Sure-Hold clips hold lightweight plastic

items like cups, lids, or bowls in place during

washing. Move a clip anywhere in the rack

by pulling it up and off the tine and reposi-

tioning it on another tine.
