MISE EN GARDE!  
Pour votre sécurité, veuillez suivre à la lettre les  
directives données dans le présent guide afin de  
réduire les risques d’incendie, d’explosion ou de  
chocs électriques, et prévenir les dommages  
matériels et les blessures graves ou mortelles.  
• Ne jetez pas un lave-vaisselle sans en avoir  
d’abord enlevé la porte.  
• N’entreposez pas et n’utilisez pas d’essence,  
de vapeurs ou de liquides inflammables à  
proximité de cet appareil ou de tout autre  
électroménager.  
• Ne modifiez pas le fonctionnement des  
commandes.  
• Ne laissez pas les enfants jouer avec le lave-  
vaisselle ni monter dessus. Ne les laissez pas  
s’introduire à l’intérieur de cet appareil ou  
d’un vieil appareil qui ne sert plus.  
• Ne montez pas ou ne vous assoyez pas sur la  
porte ou les paniers du lave-vaisselle, et ne les  
utilisez pas de façon abusive.  
WATER HEATER SAFETY  
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  
allowing 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.  
SÉCURITÉ DU CHAUFFE-EAU  
Dans certaines conditions, il peut se former de  
l’hydrogène à l’intérieur d’un chauffe-eau qui  
n’a pas servi pendant deux semaines ou plus.  
L’HYDROGÈNE EST UN GAZ EXPLOSIF.  
Pour réduire les risques de dommages ou de  
blessures lorsque l’eau chaude n’a pas été  
utilisée depuis deux semaines ou plus, ouvrez  
tous les robinets d’eau chaude et laissez l’eau  
couler pendant plusieurs minutes avant  
d’utiliser un appareil électrique raccordé au  
système d’eau chaude. Vous éliminerez ainsi  
l’hydrogène qui pourrait s’y être accumulé.  
Puisqu’il s’agit d’un gaz inflammable, ne fumez  
pas ou n’utilisez pas une flamme nue au cours  
de ce processus.

It can keep your detergent from working.  
Use a Rinse  
Agent  
If after washing you notice cloudy spots, streaks

agent dispenser is not empty, it may be  
necessary to increase the dispenser settings. To  
do so, remove the cap and using a butter knife,  
rotate the indicator arrow to a higher number.  
Replace the cap when done.  
Fill the rinse agent chamber by rotating the  
round cap counterclockwise and remove. Fill

the cap into place.  
To check if rinse agent is needed: a solid black  
indicator indicates sufficient rinse agent; a clear  
indicator indicates a low level and requires  
adding more rinse agent.

The amount of detergent to use depends on  
whether your water is hard or soft. With hard  
water, you need extra detergent. With soft  
water, you need less detergent.  
Be sure the Cycle Status Indicators (on some  
models) are not lit before adding detergent.  
Otherwise, the detergent cup will not close and  
latch properly. Add detergent then close the  
main cup.  
Protect your dishes and dishwasher by  
contacting your water department and asking  
how hard your water is. Twelve or more grains  
is extremely hard water. A water softener is  
recommended. Without it, lime can build up  
in the water valve, which could stick while open  
and cause flooding. Too much detergent with  
soft water can cause a permanent cloudiness of  
glassware, called etching.  
NOTE: To open detergent cup after it has been  
closed, push the lever latch inward.

Loading the Racks

The upper rack is for glasses, cups and saucers. Cups  
and glasses fit best along the sides. This is also a secure  
place for dishwasher-safe plastics.  
Fold down cup rack  
can support extra cup  
Upper Rack  
The cup shelf may be placed in the up or down position  
to add flexibility. The cup shelf can also secure wine  
glasses at an angle for best washability. Because wine  
glasses come in various sizes, after loading, slowly push  
in the rack to make sure they will clear the top of the  
dishwasher.  
Fold down cup rack can  
support glass stems  
The upper rack is also fitted with an adjustable glass  
support wire which can be positioned to secure tall  
glasses or fold down to fit larger items over it. You  
may need to change the height of the upper rack,  
depending on how tall your load is.  
The upper rack is good for all kinds of oddly-shaped  
utensils. Saucepans, mixing bowls and other items  
should be placed face down.  
Adjustable glass  
support wire  
Secure larger dishwasher-safe plastic items over two  
fingers when possible.  
Make sure small plastic items are secure so they can’t  
fall onto the heating element.  
The upper rack can be raised or lowered to provide extra room for different sized items. Empty the  
upper rack. Remove the rail pegs in the front of the rack runners by squeezing and lifting the top of  
the peg, then slide the rack out.

Features and appearance of racks and silverware baskets may vary from your model.  
Put flatware in the removable basket with fork and knife handles up to protect your hands. Place  
spoons in the basket with handles down. Mix knives, forks and spoons so they don’t nest together.  
Distribute evenly. Small plastic items, such as measuring spoons and lids from small containers,  
should go in the bottom of the silverware basket with silverware on top.

Flip down covers can be lowered to secure lightweight items from the effects of the vigorous wash

When loading the lower rack, do not load large platters  
or trays in the front left corner. They may prevent  
detergent from circulating during the wash cycle.  
Lower Rack  
The lower rack is best used for plates, saucers, and  
cookware. Large items such as broiler pans and  
racks should go along the sides. Load platters, pots  
and bowls along the sides, in corners, or in the back.  
The soiled side of items should face the center of  
the rack.  
Fold-down fingers provide flexibility for extra large  
and hard-to-fit items.  
The fingers may be left in the up position or folded  
down to customize the lower rack.

The glass trap is located in the stainless steel  
filter at the base of your dishwasher. The glass  
trap is used to collect larger food items and  
other foreign objects, which may be too big to  
pass through the drain pump. For best wash  
performance, check the glass trap occasionally.
