Refer to “Dishwasher care &cleaning” on page15 for pump guard cleaning instructions.
Proper Loading Continued Bottom rack loading Items with cooked-on or dried-on food should be loaded in the bottom rack, with soiled surfaces facing inward to the spray.

ForBestResults Hot water is a must For best cleaning and drying results, water should be at least 140°F (SO’C). 1. Turn on hot water faucet nearest the dishwasher. Let water run until it is as hot as possible. 2. Hold a candy or meat thermometer In the stream of hot water to measure the temperature. 3. If the temperature is too low, have a qualified person raise the water heater thermostat setting.
Energy saving tips You can help save energy if you: 1. Wash full loads. Running a half-filled dishwasher uses the same amount of electricity and hot water as a fully loaded machine. 2. Use the Light Wash Cycle for moderately soiled loads. It uses less hot water and energy than the Normal Wash Cycle. 3. Air dry dishes when you don’t need a rapid drying cycle. Allow longer drying times (overnight). 4. Load correctly for best washing results.
CommonDishwashing Problems Spotting and filming (hard water film) Hard water Fill detergent dispensers to capacity. Use dishwasher detergent with highest available phosphorus content. May be necessary to install water softener. To remove spots and film, try a vinegar rinse... 1. Wash and rinse load as usual. Use Air Dry Option. 2. Remove all metal items. 3. Put 2 cups (500 mL) white vinegar in a container on the bottom rack. 4. Run dishwasher through a complete washing cycle.
Dishes not washing clean Water is not hot enough Water temperature should be at least 140°F (SOC). Set water heater thermostat to a higher setting. Run water at sink until hot before starting. Improper loading Make sure dishes and glassware are loaded so spray reaches all surfaces and items drain properly. Do not overload. Do not nest items. Make sure large items do not block spray from reaching detergent dispensers.
