Ultra Wash _ Soil Removal System; Start-Up Guide; Using Your New Dishwasher - Kenmore 665.16502 Use & Care Manual

The ULTRA WASH soil removal system gives you sparkling clean
dishes, while using less energy and time. The ULTRA WASH soil
removal system includes:
• A heavy-duty grinder that acts as a food disposer to grind
and dispose of large food particles.
• An ULTRA WASH sensor to monitor soil level and adjust the
cycles as needed.
• An Automatic Temperature Control (ATC) that ensures the
proper water temperature for the selected wash cycle, and
soil level of the load.
• A Triple Action Filtration system that intermittently filters soil
from the wash water.
How the ULTRA WASH soil removal system and the Triple
Action Filtration system work
1. Load the dishwasher. Remove bones, large chunks or
burned-on food. No rinsing is necessary. Any remaining food 1.
soil will be ground up and disposed down the drain with the
rinse water.
2.
2. Hot water fills the dishwasher to a level near the bottom of
the overfill protection float.
3. The SENSING indicator glows, and the countdown pauses
while the water is heated.
4. When the water reaches the proper temperature, the
SENSING indicator turns off and the cycle countdown
resumes.
5. Detergent from the detergent dispenser is dispensed at the
correct time in the cycle while hot water is pumped through
the ULTRA WASH pump.
6. Hot water and detergent sprays against the soiled surfaces of 3.
the load and removes food particles. The wash action will
repeatedly pause for several seconds during this process.
7. Soil is filtered from the wash water.
8. As this soil is purged, only a small amount of hot water is
removed from the wash cycle. By only removing soiled water,
this conserves water and detergent.
9. Fresh, hot water enters the dishwasher and sprays on the
dishes. The rinse water is then pumped through the
ULTRA WASH soil removal system and remaining soil
is removed.
10. The Triple Action Filtration system's Micro Mesh Filter filters
particles smaller than the head of a pin. These particles are
purged from the Micro Mesh Filter as soon as they are
collected. This reduces the possibility that soils cleaned off of
dishes will mix with the wash water and be sprayed back
onto clean dishes.
11. The final rinse water is heated. The rinse aid is added to the
water for the final rinse to prepare the dishes for drying.
How the ULTRA WASH Sensor and the Automatic
Temperature Control (ATC) work
1. The SENSING indicator glows while the ULTRA WASH
Sensor is detecting the amount of soil in the dishwasher.
2. After the soil level is determined, unnecessary portions of the
cycle are skipped. When this happens, the electronic display
pauses or adjusts the cycle display time. This is normal.
3. The ATC adjusts the water temperature throughout the cycle
depending upon the soil level detected. Higher water
temperatures are used to improve cleaning with heavier
soiled loads.
