Check the Water Temperature
Use a Rinse Agent
The entering water should be at least 120°F (49°C) and not
more than 150°F (66°C) for effective cleaning and to prevent
dish damage. Check the water temperature with a candy or
meat thermometer.
Turn on the hot water faucet nearest the dishwasher,
place the thermometer in a glass and let the water run
continuously into the glass until the temperature stops rising.

Energy Smart
Energy Smart enables your dishwasher to reduce energy
consumption during periods of high energy costs. If you are
in an area where your electricity provider charges variable
rates at different times of the day, your dishwasher will
inform you of those times when you are paying the highest
rate. You can then either delay starting your dishwasher until
the rate goes down; or you can override the feature and run
your dishwasher at your convenience.
What you will need:
1
Smart Meter that will communicate with your dishwasher.
Consult your local electricity provider to determine if the
technology is available in your area.
2
An Energy Smart dishwasher model (CDT725-765,
DDT575, GDF570, GDT580-740, PDT750-760).
3
An Appliance Communication Module (ACM). Please visit,
gebrillion.com to order the communication device that
will need to be installed in the dishwasher.
8
Clockwise to reduce
water drops and
hard water spots

Leak Protection (on some models)
If a leak is detected, the dishwasher will drain and the cycle
will stop. The display will show “LEAK DETECTED”. Call for
service.
