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 dis-
poser, operate the disposer until it is completely
empty before starting the dishwasher.
2. Attach the Unicouple
connector to the faucet
adapter by depressing
collar at the top of the
connector. When
Unicoupler is all the way

How to Test Water Temperature
To get dishes clean and dry you need hot water.
the temperature stops rising. If the water
temperature is below 49¡C (120¡F), adjust your
water heater.
Check your water temperature with a candy or meat
thermometer. Turn on the hot water faucet nearest
the dishwasher. Put the thermometer in a glass and
let the water run continuously into the glass until
To prevent dish damage, inlet water should not
exceed 65¡C (150¡F).
How to Use a Rinse Agent
A rinse aid such as JET DRY makes water flow off
dishes quicker than usual. This lessens water
spotting and makes drying faster, too.
If you accidentally spill: Wipe up the rinse agent
with a damp cloth. Don't leave the spill in the
dishwasher. It can keep your detergent from
working.
For best dishwashing performance, use of a rinse
agent is recommended.
How to fill the rinse agent dispenser.
Unscrew the cap. Note the FULL line on the tip of
the cap. On some models, the dispenser can be
checked by pressing the clear centre of the fill cap
2 or 3 times. Add the liquid rinse agent until it just
reaches the top of the full line. Replace the cap.
The dispenser automatically releases the rinse agent
into the final rinse water.
DO NOT FILL PAST “MAX” LINE.

How to Choose and Use the Right Detergent
First, use only powder or liquid detergent
specifically made for use in dishwashers. Other
types will cause over sudsing..
hard water, you need extra detergent to get dishes
clean. With soft water, you need less detergent.
Too much detergent with soft water not only
wastes money, it can be harmful. It can cause a
permanent cloudiness of glassware, called
ÒetchingÓ. An outside layer of glass is etched
away! Of course, this takes some time. But why
take a chance when it's easy to find out the
hardness of your water.
Second, check phosphate content. Phosphate
helps prevent hard-water materials from forming
spots or film on dishes. If your water is hard (7
grains or more), your detergent has to work
harder. Detergents with a higher phosphate level
will probably work better. If phosphate content is
low (8.7% or less), you'll have to use extra
detergent with hard water.
Keep detergent fresh and dry. Under the sink
isn't a good place to store detergent because there
is too much moisture. Don't put powder detergent
into dispenser until you're ready to wash dishes,
either. (It won't be fresh OR dry.)
Your water department can tell you how hard
your water is. So can your county extension
agent or your area's water softener company. Just
call and ask them how many ÒgrainsÓ of hardness
there are in your water.
Some detergents contain colorant (pigment or
dyes) that will discolor the tub interior with
extended use. Check the detergent cup for signs of
any discoloration. If cup is discolored, change to
detergent without any colorant.
How much detergent should you use? That
depends. Is your water ÒhardÓ or ÒsoftÓ? With
Loading Detergent
You'll find two detergent dispensers on the
inside door of your dishwasher. Two, because
some cycles use two washes.

HOW TO LOAD YOUR DISHWASHER
For best dishwashing results follow these loading guidelines. Features and
appearance of racks and silverware baskets may vary from your model.
Upper Rack
12 place settings
10 place settings
The upper rack is for glasses, cups and bowls.
Cups and glasses fit best along the sides. This is
also a secure place for dishwasher-safe plastics.
NOTE:
¥ Secure larger dishwasher-safe plastics over two
fingers when possible.
A cup shelf may be placed in the up or down
position to add flexibility. Load the bottom row
first, then fold the shelf down and load the top row.
¥ Make sure when loading that small plastic items
are secured, so they canÕt fall onto the heating
element.
Lower Rack
12 place settings
10 place settings
NOTE: When loading the lower rack, do not load
large platters or trays in the front right corner.
They may prevent detergent from circulating in the
wash cycle.
Place all items to be washed with the soiled side
facing the centre of the 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.
10

Wash Tower
Keep the center area clear in the lower rack.
The wash tower rises through the center of the
lower rack during the wash and rinse portions of
the cycle. Don’t block it or load tall things next
to it.
Also, be careful not to let a portion of an item
such as a pot or dish handle extend through the
bottom rack. This could block the wash arm and
cause poor washing results.
Silverware Baskets
Put flatware in the removable basket with fork and
knife handles up to protect your hands. Place
spoons and larger serving forks in the basket with
handles down. Mix knives, forks and spoons so
they donÕt nest together. Distribute evenly.
NOTE: DonÕt place the silverware basket in the
front right corner because the detergent could
pour into it and damage silverware.
To increase the flexibility of the lower rack, the
silverware basket may be split. Grasp the basket at
opposite corners and slide apart. The basket
sections should be placed in the lower rack by
hanging them on the top hoop.
Security cell covers hinged in the silverware
basket handles can be lowered to either side to
secure lightweight items from the
effects of the vigorous wash
action.
Small plastic items,
such as measuring
spoons and lids from
small containers,
should go in the
covered silverware
basket.
DonÕt let any item
extend through
bottom.
Forget a dish? Here's when you can add it.
Add dishes any time during the RINSE & HOLD
cycle. With other wash cycles, you can add dishes
at any time BEFORE the main detergent wash
portion of the cycle.
Here's how to add a forgotten dish:
1. Push the door latch to the left. Washing will
stop.
2. Wait a few seconds until the water calms. Then
open the door. WARNING: Hot vapor may rise
from opened door.
3. Add dishes you've forgotten.
4. Close the door and push the latch to the far
right. When the door is locked, washing will
continue.
However, opening the door during any cycle
lessens cleaning power. So try to load everything
at the beginning.

CARE AND CLEANING
USER MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
Clean the control panel with a lightly
dampened cloth. Dry thoroughly. Do not use
abrasive or sharp objects on the panel. They can
damage it.
Alternatively, to remove stains inside the
PermaTuf¨ tub or, if you wish to refresh the
inside of your unit (including the water
distribution system), you may also use citric acid.
Fill both detergent cups completely with citric
acid and run dishwasher through a full cycle
without any dishes. You may repeat as often as
you feel necessary.
Clean the outside with a good appliance polish
wax. The outside cabinet finish is durable, but it
can scratch. So use no scouring pads, or harsh or
gritty cleaners.
Citric acid is widely available in powder form at
most drugstores across the country. Do not use
liquid bleach.
The inside usually takes care of itself. If it
should ever need cleaning, use a mild cleansing
powder. Scouring pads and harsh cleaners can
mar the finish.
DO NOT USE LIQUID BLEACH
Not Using Your Dishwasher in Winter? Protect Against Freezing.
(On built-in models only)
If your dishwasher is left in an unheated place

Unload the bottom rack first. Water from dishes in the top rack
may be spilling into the bottom rack.
Check for improper loading. Dishes shouldnÕt nest together.
Avoid overloading.
Check the rinse agent dispenser to see that it's not empty.
UNCLEAN DISHES AND
FLATWARE
Check inlet water temperature. It should be 49¡C (120¡F).

PROBLEM
POSSIBLE CAUSE
Spotting can be caused by all these things:
SPOTS AND FILMING ON
GLASSES AND FLATWARE
¥ Extremely hard water. (See How to Choose and Use Detergent
section.)
¥ Low inlet water temperature. (See How to Test Water
Temperature Section.)
¥ Overloading the dishwasher.
¥ Improper loading. (See Loading section.)
¥ Old or damp powder detergent.
¥ Phosphate level in detergent too low. (See How to Choose and
Use Detergent section.)
¥ Rinse agent dispenser empty. (See How to Use a Rinse Agent
section.)
¥ Too little detergent. (See How to Choose and Use Detergent
section.)
Local water conditions and personal preferences vary. Try
several brands of detergents to find one that gives the best results
for you. A liquid dishwasher detergent may help reduce filming.
To remove stubborn spots and film from glassware:
1. Remove all metal utensils from the dishwasher.
2. Do not add detergent.
3. Select POTSCRUBBER cycle.
4. Start the dishwasher and allow to run for 18 to 22 minutes.
The dishwasher will now be in the main wash.
5. Then open the door and pour 2 cups (500 ml) of white
vinegar into the bottom of the dishwasher.
6. Close the door and allow to complete the cycle.
If vinegar rinse doesn't work: Repeat as above, except use 1/4
cup (60 ml) of citric acid crystals instead of vinegar. (Most
drugstores carry citric acid crystals. If yours doesn't, call Service
Parts.)
Using a vinegar or citric acid crystal rinse more than twice a
month? Consider a home water softener.
If vinegar or citric acid crystal rinse doesn't work, the cloudiness
is Òetching.Ó
The film cannot be removed.
CLOUDINESS ON GLASSWARE
It can be prevented: Use less detergent if you have soft water.
Wash glassware in the shortest cycle that will get them clean.
Water temperature entering the dishwasher exceeds 63¡ C (150¡ F).
Rough handling can cause chipping. Load with care. Make sure
glassware and china are secure and can't jar loose. (See Loading
section.) Make sure tall glasses and stemware will clear the top
of the tub when you push the rack into the dishwasher.
CHIPPING OF CHINA
Always use the top rack for delicate items.
Aluminum utensils often leave marks when they rub against
dishes. Remove marks with a mild abrasive cleanser.

PROBLEM
POSSIBLE CAUSE
SMALL AMOUNT OF WATER
STANDING IN THE BOTTOM OF
THE TUB
Water around the outlet on the tub bottom at the back of the tub is
normal. It is clean water. It's there to keep the water seal lubricated.
If the entire bottom of the tub has water, you may have a drain
problem. Clean the air gap, if you have one. (See Care and
Cleaning section.)
WATER WONÕT PUMP OUT OF
THE TUB
Check the kitchen sink. Is it draining well? You may need a
plumber.
If dishwasher drains into disposer, run disposer to clear. Be sure
disposer is not clogged.
Suds can cause unit to overflow. That's why it's so important to use
a detergent that's designed for automatic dishwashers.
DISHWASHER LEAKS
Spilling the rinse agent can cause foam during washing. This can
lead to overflowing. Wipe up accidental spill of rinse agent with a
damp cloth.
Dishwasher has not been used on a regular basis.
MOTOR HUMS
If you do not use your dishwasher often, set it to fill and pump out
once every week. This will help keep the seal moist, and the food
disposer clear.
Sudsing detergents are not meant for dishwashers. USE ONLY
AUTOMATIC DISHWASHER DETERGENTS TO AVOID
SUDSING.
SUDS IN THE TUB
To remove suds from the tub: Open the dishwasher. Let suds
evaporate. Add 1 gallon of cold water to the tub. Close and latch
the dishwasher. Pump out water by slowly turning the control dial
until a drain period is reached.
Repeat if necessary.
Some detergents contain colorant (pigment or dyes) that will
discolor the tub interior with extended use. Check the detergent
cup for signs of any discoloration. If cup is discolored, change to
detergent without any colorant.
STAINING OF
