How the ULTRA WASH* System and ULTRA WASH
Sensor work
Your dishwasher's new ULTRA WASH Soil Removal
System is designed to give you sparkling clean dishes in
the shortest amount of time with the least amount of
energy necessary. The ULTRA WASH System includes:
A heavy duty grinder that acts as a food disposer to grind
and dispose of large food particles.
An ULTRA WASH Sensor that monitors the soil level in
the wash load and adjusts the cycle accordingly.
Here's how the ULTRA WASH Soil Removal
System works:
1. When you load the dishwasher, all you need to do is
remove bones, large chunks, or burned-on food. Any
remaining food will be ground up and disposed.
2. Hot water fills the dishwasher to a level near the
bottom of the overfill protector.
3. While the water is heated, the Water Heating indicator
on the control panel glows and the cycle time on the
electronic display holds.
4. When the water reaches the proper temperature, the
Water Heating indicator turns off and the cycle time
countdown resumes.
5. Detergent is added at the correct times from the
detergent dispenser, and hot water is pumped through
the ULTRA WASH pump.
6. Food particles are removed from dishes, pots and
pans, tableware, and cutlery as the dishwasher sprays
a mixture of hot water and detergent through two spray
arms against their soiled surfaces.
7. Food soil in the dishwasher is held in an accumulating
chamber so it does not recirculate into the dishwasher.
8. Water is pumped again through the ULTRA WASH
pump to remove soil particles from the water, and
"hold" them in the accumulating chamber I_1.
9. Soil in the ULTRA WASH Soil Removal System is
disposed down the drain with the wash water I'EI.
10. Fresh, hot water enters the dishwasher, sprays on the
dishes to rinse them, and the rinse water is pumped
through the ULTRA WASH System to remove any
remaining soil.
11. Soil that is held in the ULTRA WASH Soil Removal
System is disposed down the drain with the
rinse water.
12. Final rinse water is heated and a rinse agent is added
to prepare the dishes for drying.
How the ULTRA WASH Sensor adjusts
the cycle:
When the Sensing indicator light on the control panel
glows, the ULTRA WASH Sensor is measuring the
amount of soil in the dishwasher.
Once the soil level isdetermined, the dishwasher skips
any unnecessary portions of the cycle. The cycle count-
down display is adjusted automatically.
For lighter soil loads, the dishwasher will use fewer
water exchanges and shorten the cycle time. Example:
A 90-minute Normal cycle with a lightsoil level adjusts
to a 70-minute Normal cycle (including dry time).
