Before you call for
service...
Check the Problem Solver (pages
18-20). It lists causes of minor
operating problems that you can
correct yourself.
The power consumption of your
dishwasher can be minimized if
you follow these suggestions:
* Operate the dishwasher only
when it's full. Let the dishes
accumulate in the dishwasher.
When you put in only a partial
load, use the RINSE & HOLD
Cycle to rinse off heavy soils. Be
sure to latch the door when waiting
for a full load. This helps to keep
soils moist, easier to remove.
Always select the cycle that uses
the least amount of water that
will remove the soil from the load.
See page 11.
* Select the SOIL LEVEL that will
remove soil from load.
o If you don't need your dishes
right away, use your ENERGY
SAVER DRYING that turns the
drying heater off automatically.
Dishes dry naturally over a longer
period such as overnight.
* Watch the SYSTEMS MONITOR
for more ideas. See page 7.
Use these numbers in any
correspondence or service calls
concerning your dishwasher.
