PRODUCT OPERATION
SYSTEM OVERVIEW
ELECTRONICS
AMOUNT OF WATER
The functions of controlling the motor and the
user interface console are combined into a
single16-bitmicrocontrolleronthemaincircuit
board.
The tub fills with 0.8 gallons of water, approxi-
mately level with the base of the spray arm.
Once this level is reached, the wash is primed
to pump water through the spray arm, which
will then rotate.
The micro controller also controls a
transformerless 85 watt switchmode power
supply. The power supply uses a large drop-
ping resistor on the heater plate and phase
control of the line voltage to produce a variable
voltage supply. The micro controller can sup-
ply 5 - 85 volts to the various components.
The load on the wash pump is constantly
monitored throughout the wash cycle and the
water level adjusted if necessary.
TUB HOME SENSOR
Using an infrared transmitter and receiver
mounted on the controller circuit board, the tub
home sensor detects when the tub is closed
and ready to start a cycle.
The user interface has a circuit board for front
controls and a touch switch panel for internal
controls.
The transmitter sends infrared light through an
optical light pipe to the side of the tub. Another
optical light pipe leads from the infrared re-
ceiver to the side of the tub. When the tub is
closed, the two light pipes are optically con-
nected via a prism mounted in the side of the
chassis.
MOTOR & HALL SENSOR
Theelectronicallycontrolled80V,60w,3phase,
4-pole, brushless DC motor runs at 2300-2850
rpm during wash cycles, and approximately
4200 rpm during drain.
The hall sensor is mounted on a small circuit
board clipped to the motor case, and monitors
motor speed and rotation.
DETERGENT/RINSE AID
DISPENSER
HEATER PLATE
The detergent/rinse aid dispenser door is
opened manually to load detergent, and then
manually closed to transport the detergent to
the tub by the inlet water. An electronically-
controlled inlet water diverter valve enables
eachdetergentchambertobedispensedsepa-
rately.
The heater plate is a porcelain enameled steel
plate that supports the motor at the base of the
tub and is clamped in place by a lock ring nut.
A thick film resistive circuit for the heater ele-
ment and the power supply dropping resistor
are printed on the dry side of the heater plate.
A positive displacement pump and storage
tank is incorporated within the dispenser to
supply rinse agent. The electronic controller

DRAIN CYCLE
LID SYSTEM
The self-priming centrifugal drain pump oper-
ates when the motor is rotating in a counter-
clockwise direction. A non-return flap valve on
the outlet pipe prevents soiled water from re-
turning to the tub.
The lid is a single piece of injection-molded
polymer plastic with an integral static seal.
Eachsideofthelidisclippedintoayoke, which
is attached to a worm drive gearbox assembly
containing a small brush-type 24V DC motor.
At the beginning of each wash cycle, both
motors are powered up for approximately 10
seconds to pull the lid down onto the tub. The
lid remains down for the duration of the cycle

signal the end of the cycle, or if the customer
pauses it to gain access to the tub.
FILTER PLATE
The drain filter can be emptied with the dish
rack in place by removing the cutlery basket
andopeningtheplasticsectionofthedishrack.
The filter plate is removable for cleaning by
removing the dish rack and spray arm and
unlocking the lock ring nut counterclockwise.
If power to the dishwasher fails while the lid is
down, the tub can be forced open manually. It
is very difficult to close the tub again without
liftingthelid. Thelidcanbewoundupmanually
with the tub fully removed.
DRYING CYCLE
The fan moves air through the tub to draw
water from the dish load. The moisture-laden
air is then mixed with a large quantity of ambi-
ent air to minimize the amount of vapor visible
exiting from the drawer front.
FLOOD SENSOR
A flood sensor, located at the edge of the
electroniccontrolboardinthedishwasherlower
compartment, will sense the presence of mois-
ture. In the event that moisture is detected, the
sensor will signal the electronic control, which
in turn, will de-energize the fill valves, and start
both drain pumps.
The fan runs continuously during the drying
cycle and will restart if the tub is opened and
closed again. After the drying cycle is com-
plete, the fan continues to run for 30 minutes,
but will not restart if the tub is opened.

DISHWASHER SYSTEMS
THE WASH SYSTEM
Cleaning The Spray Arm,
Drain Filter, And Filter Plate
The wash system provides excellent cleaning
results. Two levels of filtration filter the wash
waterandpreventfoodparticlesfromredepos-
iting on the clean dishes.
To Clean The Spray Arm
1. Carefully remove the base rack. Lift from
the back end first so that you do not bump
the detergent and rinse aid dispenser.
• A filter plate prevents bones, pits, and other
large objects from entering the pump sys-
tem.
2. Lift the spray arm and shake out any
foreign material.
• Items small enough to pass through the filter
plate are caught in the drain filter.
3. Rinse the spray arm under running water
and wipe it with a damp cloth.
• The wash water continuously flows through
the drain filter, trapping food particles.
4. Place the spray arm back onto the impel-
ler.
IMPORTANT: Before each wash load, check
thedrainfilterforevidenceoffoodparticlesand
clean. (A small amount of water will remain in
thedrainfilterarea.)Thefilterplateisdesigned
to be self-cleaning, but food scraps may accu-
mulate. The spray arm and filter plate may
need cleaning about once a month in normal
use or more often, should the need arise.

any soil that is present. Rinse the filter
plate thoroughly in clean water.
1. If the base rack is in place, lift the drain
filter access panel.
2. Lift and remove the drain filter from the
drawer.
4. Wipe the heater plate that is located in the
drawer with a damp cloth.
3. Empty the drain filter, and rinse it with
clean running water, then place the filter
back into the drain space. Make sure that
the drain filter is flush with the filter plate.
5. Replace the filter plate so that it lies flat in
the base of the drawer.
6. Align the outer ring tabs with the notches
in the center ring. Hold the center ring
steady, and turn the outer ring clockwise
until the lines that are on the two rings
align.NOTE:Whenproperlyinstalled,you
should not be able to move the filter plate.
To Clean The Filter Plate
NOTE: Make sure that the dishwasher is cool
before you start cleaning the filter plate.
1. Remove the spray arm and drain filter, as
described in the previous sections.
IMPORTANT: The drawer must be used with
the filter plate, drain filter, and spray arm cor-
rectly in place.
2. In the center of the filter plate, there are
two rings: an outer ring and a center ring.
Holdthecenterringstill, andturntheouter
ring counterclockwise about 1/8-turn so
that the tabs and notches in both rings are
aligned. This will release the filter plate.

USING THE DISHWASHER
IMPORTANT:
DETERGENT USE
• Use powdered, automatic dishwashing de-
tergent only. Other detergents can produce
excessive suds that can overflow out of the
dishwasher and reduce washing perfor-
mance.
The detergent and rinse aid dispenser is lo-
catedonthefrontinsidewallofthedrawer. The
detergent dispenser has two sections:
1) Pre Wash and, 2) Main Wash.
The Pre Wash and Main Wash sections each
have inside fill line markings. The Pre Wash
section has one marking, which represents 1 tsp
(5 mL). When it is full, the Pre Wash section
holds 2 tsp (10 mL). The Main Wash section
has two markings. The lowest mark indicates
2 tsp (10 mL), and the middle mark 4 tsp
(20 mL). When the Main Wash section is full, it
contains 6 tsp (30 mL).
• Add detergent just before starting a cycle.
• Store tightly closed detergent in a cool, dry
place. Using fresh, automatic dishwasher
detergent results in better cleaning.
NOTE: Do not use detergent with a Rinse
program.
Filling The Powdered Detergent
Dispenser
NOTE: The detergent dispenser is designed
for use with powdered detergent. Liquid and
tablet detergents are not suitable to be used in
thedispenser.(Dispenserpostsareareminder
not to use detergent tablets.)
1. Press the latch down and the door will
open.
2. Pour in detergent. No detergent is needed
for the Rinse program.
3. After filling the dispenser, close the door
until it clicks shut. The detergent will auto-
matically be released into the drawer dur-
ing the Wash program.

How Much Detergent To Use
• You can order a water hardness test strip at
no charge. In the U.S.A., call the Customer
Interaction Center, and ask for Part Number
4171690. (See “Assistance or Service” in
the Use and Care Guide.)
• The detergent quantities suggested in the
chart are for individual drawer use.
• The amount of detergent to use depends on
the hardness of the water, and the type of
detergent.Toolittledetergent,andthedishes
will not be clean. Too much detergent in soft
water, and glassware will etch.
• Different brands of dishwasher detergent
have different amounts of phosphorus for
softening water. If the water is hard and a
detergent with a phosphorous content of
less than 8.7% is used, more detergent may
be necessary, or use a detergent with a
phosphorous content higher than 8.7%.
• Water hardness can change over a period of
time. Find out what the water’s hardness is
by asking your local water department, wa-
ter softener company, or county extension
agent.

Filling The Dispenser
RINSE AID DISPENSER
The rinse aid dispenser holds 1.7 oz. (50.28 mL)
of rinse aid. Under normal conditions, this will
last for about 1 to 2 months. Try to keep it full,
but do not overfill it.
Theregularuseofliquidrinseaidgivesthebest
drying results. Rinse aids prevent water from
forming droplets on surfaces that can dry as
spots, or streaks, and keep metal from tarnish-
ing. They also improve drying by allowing wa-
ter to drain off the dishes during the final rinse.
The dishwasher is designed to use a liquid
rinse aid. Do not use a solid, or bar-type.
To fill the dispenser:
1. Turn the plug counterclockwise and re-
move it.
2. Pour the rinse aid into the circular open-
ing. NOTE:Becarefulnottospillanyrinse
aid into the drawer. Clean any spillage to
prevent excess foaming. Failure to clean
rinse aid spillages may result in a service
call,whichwillnotbecoveredbywarranty.
The rinse aid dispenser is located on the front
inside of the drawer underneath the detergent
dispenser.

How Much Rinse Aid To Use
The regulator may need adjusting to suit the
water conditions. The lowest setting is “1” and
thehighestis“5.”Forhardwatersituations, the
rinse aid should be set to its highest setting (5).
Rinse Aid Indicator
If the rinse aid indicator light is red, refill the
dispenser. If the rinse aid indicator light is not
lit, there is enough rinse aid for the wash. You
do not have to wait until the dispenser is empty
to refill it.
NOTE: If there is excessive foam at the end of
the wash, reduce the setting. If dishes are wet
or streaky after drying, increase the setting.

• Tosavewater,energy,andtime,donotrinse
the dishes before placing them into the dish-
washer.
PERFORMANCE TIPS
Hot water dissolves and activates the
dishwashing detergent. Hot water also dis-
solves grease on dishes, and helps glasses to
dry spot-free. For best dishwashing results,
water temperature should be 120°F (49°C) as
it enters the dishwasher. Loads may not wash
as well if the water temperature is too low.
Water that is too hot can make some soils
harder to remove, and cause certain detergent
ingredients not to function. If the water heater
is located far from the dishwasher, it may be
necessary to run the hot water at the faucet
closest to the dishwasher to minimize the
amount of cold water in the water line.
• Choose the cycle that describes the most
difficult soil on your dishload.
• Do not worry about mixed loads. Any item
thatisdishwashersafecanbewashedusing
any cycle.
• Use a delay feature to run your dishwasher
during off-peak hours. Local utilities recom-
mend avoiding heavy usage of energy at
certain times of day.
• Use a rinse aid to improve drying.
• Use cycles or options that add extra heat to
the wash or rinse portion of the cycle for
better performance.
1. Run hot water at the faucet closest to the
dishwasher for at least 1 minute.
• Operate the dishwasher with full loads. Run
arinsecycleaftermealsuntilthedishwasher
is full.
2. Place a candy or meat thermometer in a
glass measuring cup.
• If the home is equipped with a water soft-
ener, try to avoid starting the dishwasher
duringtheregenerationofthesoftener,since
this may contribute to poor wash perfor-
mance.
3. Check the temperature on the thermom-
eterwhilethewaterisrunningintothecup.
