Make sure all hose connections are solid and no leaks
are detected before stating the dishwasher.
Front Door: To open the door, push the door release
button and the door will (partially) open automatically.
Pull the door down to open fully.
Loading Detergent (Automatic Dispenser): To open
the “A” cover on the dispenser, press the ‘B” button.
Add the recommended amount of detergent into the
“C” compartment. Close the cover and press down
until it clicks (locks) in place. (See Fig. A )
Rinse Agent: Unscrew cap and pour the
recommended amount 59ml (2 fl oz liq) into the
dispenser. Avoid overfilling.
Load Dishes: Pull the rack all the way out until it
comes to a stop on the door. Load dishes with the
soiled surface facing toward the center of the tub.
(see page 5 for reference) To facilitate loading the
large dinner plates, it will be necessary to remove the
silverware basket from the rack. When loading is
complete return silverware basket to original position.
Load Silverware: Silverware should be placed in
basket with the handles at the bottom. To avoid cut
type injuries, exercise caution when (handling)
loading/unloading sharp objects.
When loading is complete, slide the dish rack back
into the tub.
Close Door: Lift the door and push firmly to close.
Listen for positive door lock (click) when the door
is closed.
Selecting Program: Always make sure the power
on/off button is “off” before selecting a program.
Rotate the timer dial (clockwise) until the dot on the
timer dial is aligned with the program you want to use.
Select Sani/Econo Mode: Push the Sani/Econo
button on the control panel. When the push button is
“in” you have selected the “Sani” mode. When the
push button is ”out” you have selected “Econo” mode.
The “red” pilot light adjacent to the push button
illuminates (only) when you select ‘Sani” mode and the
power is turned on.
Starting the Dishwasher: Only after all program
settings are made should you start the
dishwasher. Push the power on/off button to start
the dishwasher. The “green” pilot light adjacent to
the on/off button illuminates indicating the power is
on and the dishwasher will start to operate. NOTE:
After the dishwasher completes its program, both
the power light and sani light remain illuminated
until the power is turned off.
NOTE: The wash/rinse cycle can be interrupted
anytime during operation, by opening the door
carefully. (to avoid being sprayed by hot water)
This allows you to add or remove dishes as
needed. When the door is closed, the cycle
automatically resumes at the point where it left off.
When you are finished using the dishwasher, turn
the power off at the on/off switch.
NOTE: Exercise caution when unloading dishes
immediately after a cycle has just been
completed, as the last rinse cycle produces
extremely hot water conditions.
NOTE: . The last rinse cycle is designed to boost
water temperature upto (160F / 71C) irregardless
of the program settings made.
Dishes will be extremely hot and difficult to handle
immediately thereafter. Allow the dishes to stand
for several minutes before attempting to remove
them, or leave the door partially open to speed-up
the cooling down process.
Tub Filter: For best performance and results, the
filter should be cleaned after each use. To remove
the filter assembly, pull on the handle lift and
remove. Rinse the filter under running water to
remove food particles and return filter to
dishwasher.
NEVER OPERATE DISHWASHER WITHOUT
TUB FILTER IN PLACE.
Spray Arm: It may happen that food particles
become encrusted on the spray arm and block the
holes. Check the spray arm periodically and clean
when needed.
After Every Wash: Turn off the water supply to
the appliance and disconnect the water inlet hose.
Leave the door slightly ajar so moisture and odors
are not trapped inside.
Cleaning: To clean the exterior cabinet and door
seals, do not use solvents or abrasive cleaning
products. Use warm soapy water and a soft dish
towel. To remove spots or stains from the stainless
steel tub/door, use a cloth dampened with water
and white vinegar, or cleaning products made
specifically for dishwashers.
