GROUND FAULT CIRCUIT INTERRUPTER (GFCI)

The dishwasher is provided with a Ground

Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI). It is a built-in

safety feature designed to protect against the

dangers of line-to-ground electrical faults. If a

fault of this type develops, the GFCI will discon-

nect the power to the dishwasher. The GFCI

should be tested once a month.

To do this test, perform the following steps:

Press the "Test" button. The LED indicator

should be "OFF" (not visible in the win-

dow).

Press the "Reset" button. The LED indica-

tor should be "ON" (visible in the window).

A pressure switch is used to fill the dishwasher

with approximately 3.1 liters or 3/4 gallon per

fill. A second switch in the pressure switch

protects against an overfill condition.

The sensing tubing for the pressure switch is

routed from the sump air dome to the pressure

switch. A protective cover is provided for the

pressure switch tubing at the sump to prevent

foreign materials from entering the tubing. The

tubing is also routed to one of the air gaps and

back to the switch, providing protection against

suds forming in the tubing and filling it. Should

the tubing become filled with suds, the pres-

sure switch would be unable to sense water
