GE PDW8900 Series Technical Service Manual page 4

The new GE Profile PDW8900 Series, PWDW9700 Series, and PDW9900 Series dishwashers incorporate the
following new features for 2005:
SmartDispenseTM - A bulk liquid detergent dispense assembly is introduced with this dishwasher.
It
consists of a dispense reservoir mounted within the inner door panel, a liquid level sensor con-
nected to a Low Detergent LED on the control panel, and a positive displacement pump to inject
the optimal amount of detergent into the dishwasher during each cycle.
A
water hardness selec-
tion mode permits the calibration of the location's water hardness.
Single Rack WashTM
-
In addition to the two rack wash cycles, this
GE
Profile dishwasher has a
Single Rack Wash which bypasses the lower spray arm, directing the cleaning power to the up-
per rack only. Water is dispensed from the middle and upper wash arms only.
Smart Fill
-
The wash system has been changed to a low flow design. The wash, dry, and noise
performance have all been improved. Smallerjets on the spray arms require less water to keep
- ,
the pump primed. Less water allows the Calrod to heat the water to a higher temperature, im-
proving both wash and dry performances.
Angled Rack Dry - A new top rack features two adjustable-angle dividers. This prevents rinse
water from puddling, allowing it to run off the bottoms of stemware, glasses, and cups.
