preparation is required:
Add detergent and check rinse agent.
Detergent must be placed in the detergent dispenser
compartment as described in the following section
titled DETERGENT USE. The use of a rinse agent is
required to ensure good cleaning and drying result.
See section titled RINSE AGENT DISPENSER.
Check motion of wash arms.
The wash arms must be free to move and should not

also be scraped into a wastebasket or into your food
disposer.

blackened, should be pre-soaked and scoured. The

Start the dishwasher.
Turn "Start and Run Knob" to "START" and depress
the On/Off button. The indicator light above On/Off
button will become illuminated and the the dishwasher
will start. The "Start and Run Knob" will rotate
clockwise as the dishwasher cycle progresses. By
noting where the knob is pointing to it is possible to
discern where in the cycle the dishwasher is at any
time.
In general, try to remove food scraps and place the items
to be washed in the dishwasher before the food has had a
chance to dry-on. Dried-on food is more difficult to
remove. If there will be an extended period of time before
the dishwasher will be run it is recommended that the
RINSE & HOLD cycle be used.
Other than the above, no special preparation or pre-rinsing
is required for dishes, pots and pans or utensils with
normal amounts of food soil.
