Roughhandling can cause chipping.Load with care. Make sure glasswareand china are
secure and can'tjar loose, (See page 8 for correct wayto load glassware. ) Make sure tall
glasses and stemwarewill clear the top of the tub when you push the rack into the
dishwasher.
Alwaysuse the top rack for delicateitems,
Wateraround the outlet on the tub bottom at the back of the tub is normal. It is clean
water. It'sthere to keep the water seal lubricated.
If the entire bottom of the tub has water, you may have a drain problem. Clean the air gap,
if you have one. (See page 11. )
Check the kitchen sink. Is it draining well? Youmay need a plumber.
If dishwasherdrains into disposer, run disposer to clear. Be sure disposer is not clogged.

DISHWASHER DETERGENTS TO AVOIDSUDSING.
To removesuds from the tub: Open the dishwasher. Let suds evaporate.Add 1 gallon of
cold water to the tub. Close and latch the dishwasher. Pump out water by slowlyturning
the control dial until a drain period is reached.
Repeat if necessary.

designed for automatic dishwashers.
Spillingthe rinse agent can cause foam during washing. This can lead to overflowing.
