START-UP GUIDE The ULTRA WASH soil removal system gives you sparkling clean dishes, while using less energy and time. The ULTRA WASH soil removal system includes: A heavy-duty grinder that acts as a food disposer to grind and dispose of large food particles. How the ULTRA WASH soil removal system works 1. Load the dishwasher. Remove bones, large chunks or burned-on food. No rinsing is necessary. Any remaining food soil will be ground up and disposed down the drain with the rinse water. 2.
LOADING YOUR DISHWASHER .... • The top rack is designed for cups, glasses, and smaller items. (See recommended loading patterns shown.) NOTE: The features on your dishwasher rack may vary from the drawings shown. Remove leftover food, bones, toothpicks and other hard items from the dishes. It is not necessary to rinse the dishes before putting them in the dishwasher. The wash module removes food particles from the water. The module contains a chopping device which will reduce the size of food items.
Utensil basket Use this extra capacity basket on the top rack to hold spatulas, wooden spoons, and similar items. • Load plates, soup bowls, etc., between prongs and facing inward to the spray. • Overlap the edges of plates for large loads. Load soup, cereal, and serving bowls in the rack in a variety of ways depending upon their size and shape. Load bowls securely between the rows of prongs. Do not nest bowls because the spray will not reach all surfaces.
USING YOUR DISHWASHER Load the silverware basket while it is in the bottom rack or take the basket out for loading on a counter or table. NOTES: • Silverware basket covers are available on some models. • Unload or remove the basket before unloading the racks to avoid spilling water droplets on the silverware. The detergent dispenser has 2 sections. The Pre-Wash section empties detergent into the dishwasher when you close the door. 1 • • 3 4 1, Cover 2. Main wash section 3. Cover latch 4.
How much detergent to use • The amount of detergent to use depends on the hardness of your water and the type of detergent. If you use too little, dishes won't be clean. If you use too much in soft water, glassware will etch. • Water hardness can change over a period of time. Find out your water's hardness by asking your local water department, water softener company, or county extension agent. • Different brands of dishwasher detergent have different amounts of phosphorous for softening water.
4o Dishwasher Efficiency Tips Hot water dissolves and activates the dishwashing detergent. Hot water also dissolves grease on dishes and helps glasses dry spot-free. For best dishwashing results, water must be at least 120°F (49°C) as it enters the dishwasher. Loads may not wash as well if the water temperature is too tow. If the water temperature at the faucet is below 120°F (49°C), have a qualified person raise the water heater's thermostat setting.
