HOW TO OPERATE THE DISHWASHER
The operation of the dishwasher is summarized below:
1. Load the dishwasher
Refer to table 1 for items suitable for washing in the
dishwasher. The dishwasher should be loaded with
pots, pans, dishes and silverware according to the
instructions provided under the following section titled
LOADING THE DISHWASHER.
2. Add detergent
Detergent must be placed in the detergent dispenser
compartment as described in the following section titled
DETERGENT USE. The use of the Rinse Agent is
recommended to assist in the drying cycle. See
section titled RINSE AGENT DISPENSER.
3. Check motion of wash arms
The wash arms must be free to move and should not be
blocked by any item extending so far above lower rack
as to block upper arm or by any items hanging below
either the upper or lower rack to obstruct the motion
of the wash arms. See following section titled
OPERATION.
4. Close the door of the dishwasher.
Make sure that the door is completely closed and
latched.
5. Select a wash program and depress the corresponding
program button, see figure 1:
• RINSE & HOLD
Used for rinsing partial loads which will be washed
later. No detergent is used with this program.
• POTS & PANS
Recommended for cleaning pots and pans with dried
on, baked on food. Your everyday dishes may be
included.
Note: Burned on food, food burned black, should be
pre-soaked and scoured. The dishwasher
cannot remove burned on food.
• REGULAR WASH
The everyday program. This program should be used
when dishes have normal amount of soil; strong
enough to remove hardened food but gentle enough
for porcelain.
• ECONOMY (SMU 4000 Series only)
The most energy efficient cleaning program, heated
drying is not used in the ECONOMY program, rather
the dishes are allowed to air dry.
When used in combination with the RINSE & HOLD
program may be used when dishes have normal
amount of soil.
