Status Indicators
Clean
CLEAN glows when a cycle is finished. The light turns on when
you open the door. The light turns off when you close the door or
press CANCEL.
Wash System
The five-level wash system provides excellent cleaning results.
Four levels of filtration, and a soil collector system, filter the wash
water and prevent food particles from redepositing on the clean
dishes.
The wash water continuously flows through the Ultra-Fine
filter, trapping food particles.
Two water jets, located under the spray arm remove the food
particles from the Ultra-Fine filter.
A coarse strainer prevents bones, pits, and other large
objects from entering the pump system.
NOTE:
Periodically check the coarse strainer and remove any
objects on the strainer.
Vent Sys tem
The integrated vent, located on the top left side of the door,
provides a pressure relief to reduce the door-closing force.
The vent closes during the cycle to lock sound in the dishwasher.
After the cycle has finished, the vent remains closed until the
dishes have cooled down. Between cycles, the vent stays open
for airflow, reducing the buildup of odors.
Overfill Protection Float
The overfill protection float (in the front right corner of the
dishwasher tub) keeps the dishwasher from overfilling. It must be
in place for the dishwasher to operate.
Check under the float for objects that may keep the protector
from moving up or down.
