Items that are not dishwasher safe may melt and create a potential fire hazard. This symbol will help alert you to such dangers as personal injury, burns, fire and electrical shock. If the dishwasher drains into a food disposer, make sure disposer is completely empty before running dishwasher.
Dishwasher Features Your dishwasher cleans by spraying a mixture of hot water and detergent through the spray arms against soiled surfaces. Each cycle begins with a pre-drain. Next, the dishwasher fills with water covering the filter area. Water is then pumped through the filter and spray arms. Soil particles go down the drain as the water is pumped out and replaced with clean water. The number of water fills will vary with the cycle being used.
