Your dishwasher cleans by spraying a mixture of hot water and detergent through the spray arms against soiled surfaces. Each cycle begins with a pre-drain. Next, the dishwasher fills with water covering the filter area. Water is then pumped through the filter and spray arms. Soil particles go down the drain as the water is pumped out and replaced with clean water.
5. Select desired OPTIONS (See Energy Options). The indicator light above the pad will glow when selected. 6. Run hot water faucet nearest dishwasher until water is hot. Turn water off. 7. To start, press START/CANCEL pad.
The light above the pad will turn off. To Cancel a Cycle You can cancel a cycle anytime during the cycle. Press START/CANCEL pad and the dishwasher will start a 90 second drain. At the end of the drain, select the desired cycle.
The Smart Soil Sensor checks the soil level on your dishes in the Heavy Wash, Quick Clean, Normal and Top Rack cycles. Depending on soil level, the sensor will determine if additional water fills are needed to clean the dishes or if water fills can be deleted.
In the unlikely event the dishwasher malfunctions, the indicator may display one of the following codes "Er", "uF", "uo", or "CE". If one of these codes are displayed contact the Frigidaire Customer Care Center at 800-944-9044 They will be able to provide assistance in troubleshooting the problem and/or locating an authorized service technician, if needed.
A) Lift the rack straight upward. B) Pull rack slightly forward as the adjustable mechanism locks into place. To lower the upper rack, lift the rack straight upward and push rack slightly towards the rear of the dishwasher as it is lowered.
Loading the Bottom Rack Features and appearance of racks and silverware basket may vary from your model. The lower rack is best for plates, saucers, bowls, and cookware. Large items should be placed along the edge so they do not block the spray arm rotation. For best results, place bowls, casseroles, and sauce pans with soiled surface facing down or toward the center.
• Unlatch door and wait a few seconds until wash action stops before opening. • Add the item and wait a few seconds to allow cold air to slowly expand inside dishwasher. • Close door firmly to latch and resume cycle.
As a rule, use 1 teaspoon for each grain above 12. Unlatch the door, open slowly and add detergent to the bottom of the tub. Close the door to latch and the dishwasher will continue through the cycle.
Adjustable setting Dispenser Cap Water Pressure The hot water line to dishwasher must provide water pressure between 20 and 120 psi. Low water pressure may occur when laundry or showers are in operation. Wait until water use is reduced before starting dishwasher.
Care of Drain Air Gap If a drain air gap was installed for your built-in dishwasher, check to make sure it is clean so the dishwasher will drain properly. A drain air gap is usually mounted on countertop and can be inspected by removing the cover.
Use the Rinse & Hold cycle or rinse by hand if not operating dishwasher at once. • Mixing stainless steel and silver utensils in silverware basket can cause pitting of the stainless steel blades.
This is normal since each spray arm has its own sound. • It is normal for dishwasher to pause (no sound) when the wash action is switching between the lower and middle spray arms.
