Water Temperature
For best cleaning and drying results, water should be at least 140°F
(60%). You can check the temperature of hot water at your sink
with a candy or meat thermometer. Turn on the faucet nearest the
dishwasher. Let the water run until it is as hot as possible, then
insert the thermometer into the stream of water. If the thermometer
reading is below 14o”F, have a qualified technician raise your water
thermostat setting.
Water Pressure
Water pressure should be between 15 and 120 pounds per square
inch. To determine if you have enough water pressure, put a %
gallon container under the fully opened hot water faucet nearest the
dishwasher-it should be full in less than 14 seconds. Be sure that
all other faucets are shut off during this test.

Electrical Supply
Your dishwasher should be connected to its own separate grounded
circuit. It requires a 15 ampere fuse or circuit breaker protection. If
there are other outlets on the dishwasher circuit, do not use them
while the machine is operating or you may blow the fuse or trip the
circuit breaker.
Energy and Water Saving Tips
9 Wash full loads. Running a half-filled dishwasher uses the same
amount of electricity and hot water as a fully-loaded machine.
l
Use the LIGHT WASH for lightly soiled loads. It uses less hot
water and energy than NORMAL WASH.
l
AIR DRY dishes when you do not need a rapid drying cycle. Allow
a longer drying period (overnight).
l
Load correctly for best washing results. Incorrect loading may
cause poor washing and the need to rewash all or part of the load.
0 Do not pre-rinse normally soiled dishes. Using the NORMAL
WASH cycle with the recommended amount of detergent and
proper loading will provide good washing results without hand
rinsing.
l
Operate your dishwasher during off-peak hours, Local utilities
recommend this to avoid heavy usage of energy at certain times
of day.
