Dishware Drying
At the end of the cycle the dishwasher will stop and a period of condensation drying will
follow. After drying, the cycle is complete and:
• the completion signal will sound.
• the InfoLightwill turn off.
• the countdown display will show"O".
NOTE: If your household water supply is too hot, your dishwasher's heating time may be
reduced and the "Sanitized" light may not illuminate. Your Dishwasher Installation Manual
has information on the recommended temperature for your household hot water supply.
NOTE: To accelerate and enhance drying, open the dishwasher door, pull the top rack a few
inches out of the dishwasher, and prop the dishwasher door against the top rack.
Unloading the Dishwasher
Unload the bottom rack first.
Unload the silverware basket(s). They are easily removed for unloading.
Unload the top rack.
If the Extra Tall Item Sprinkler was installed, return the dishwasher to its normal condition
(see the Loading Extra Tall Items instructions in the "Loading the Dishwasher" section of
this manual).
Care and Maintenance
Maintenance Tasks
Certain areas of your dishwasher require occasional maintenance. The maintenance tasks
are easy to do and will ensure continued superior performance from your dishwasher.
These tasks are:
• Winterizing Your Dishwasher
• Wiping up Spills and Splash-out
• Clean the Stainless Steel Inner Door and Tub
• Check/Clean the SprayArm Nozzles
• Check/Clean the Filter System
• Clean the Exterior Door Panel

Winterizing Your Dishwasher
If your dishwasher will be unused for an extended period of time in a location that
experiences freezing temperatures (e.g., in a holiday home or through a vacation period),
have your dishwasher winterized by an authorized service center.
ATTENTION
To avoid dishwasher damage, do not allow water to remain in your dishwasher sys-
tems through extended periods of freezing temperatures. Freezing temperatures can
damage your dishwasher.
Wiping Up Spills and Splash-out
Water may occasionally splash out of your dishwasher, especially if you interrupt a cycle or
open the dishwasher door during a cycle. To avoid floor damage and possible mold growth,
do not allow wet areas to remain around or under the dishwasher.
