Operating the
Dishwasher (coat,hoed)
"Sanitized" Light
When the "Sanitized" light appears on the control
panel, it means that the dishware and
kitchenware that were just washed have been
sanitized according to the requirements of the
National Sanitation Foundation (NSF). For more
information on NSF certification, go to the Wash
Cycle Information section of this manual.
NOTE: If your household water supply is too hot,
your dishwasher's heating time may be reduced
and the "Sanitized" light may not illuminate. Your
Dishwasher Installation Manual has information
on the recommended temperature for your
household hot water supply.
The Cycle Completion Signal
(models SHX43C, SHX33A, SHX36L only)
This Cycle Completion Signal is a tone that
sounds when your dishwasher finishes
washing and drying your dishes. You can either
disable the tone or set the volume.
To change the Cycle Completion Signal Volume:
1. Open the dishwasher door far enough to
expose the control buttons.
2. Press and hold the right "Cancel Drain" button
then press and hold the On/Off button.
3. When the light on the "Cancel Drain" button
you are pressing illuminates and the tone
begins to sound, release both buttons.
4. Press the right-most "Cancel Drain" button
until the tone is either at the desired volume or
is silent.
5. Press the On/Off Button.
6. Shut the dishwasher door. The Cycle
Completion Signal is now set, and you may
wash your dishes as usual.

If the Extra Tall Item Sprinkler was installed, return

Loading Extra Tall Items instructions in the
"Loading the Dishwasher" section of this manual).
Care and Maintenance
Maintenance Tasks
Certain areas of your dishwasher require
occasional maintenance. The maintenance tasks
are easy to do and will ensure continued superior
performance from your dishwasher. These tasks
are:
• Winterizing Your Dishwasher
• Wiping up Spills and Splash-out
• Clean the Stainless Steel Inner Door and Tub
• Check/Clean the SprayArm Nozzles
• Check/Clean the Filter System
• Clean the Exterior Door Panel
• Clean the Door Gasket
Winterize Your Dishwasher
If your dishwasher will be unused for an extended
period of time in a location that experiences
freezing temperatures (e.g., in a holiday home or
through a vacation period), have your dishwasher
winterized by an authorized service center.
To avoid dishwasher damage, do not allow
water to remain in your dishwasher
systems through extended periods of
freezing temperatures. Freezing
temperatures can damage your
dishwasher.
Wipe Up Spills and Splash-out
Water may occasionally splash out of your
dishwasher, especially if you interrupt a cycle or
open the dishwasher door during a cycle. To
avoid floor damage and possible mold growth, do
not allow wet areas to remain around or under the
dishwasher.
