Important Safety Instructions

Products with a label have been listed with Underwriter's Laboratories, Inc. - those with a CSA tag have been listed with Canadian Standards Association. Nevertheless, as with any other equipment using electricity and moving parts, there is a potential hazard.

WARNING - When using your dishwasher, follow basic precautions, including the following:

  1. Read all instructions before using the dishwasher.
  2. Use the dishwasher only for its intended function.
  3. Disconnect electrical power to dishwasher before attempting to service.
  4. To avoid electrical shock hazard, the sides and back must be enclosed and the front panels must be attached before electrical power is applied to the dishwasher. Refer to the installation instructions for proper grounding procedures.
  5. Connect to a properly rated, protected and sized power supply circuit to avoid electrical overload.
  6. Children should never be permitted to operate, or play in, with, or around this dishwasher.
  7. To reduce the risk of injury when loading items to be washed, sharp or pointed items should be located with the handles up. Also, load sharp items so they are not likely to damage the door seal.
  8. Do not touch the heating element on the bottom of the tub during or at the completion of a cycle. It will be hot.

  9. Use only detergents and rinse additives designed for an automatic dishwasher. Never use soap, laundry detergent, or hand washing detergent in your dishwasher. Keep these products out of reach of children.

  10. Do not sit, stand on or abuse the door or dish racks of the dishwasher.
  11. Under certain conditions, hydrogen gas may be produced in a hot water system that has not been used for two weeks or more. Hydrogen gas is explosive. If the hot water system has not been used for such a period, turn on all hot water faucets and let the water flow from each for several minutes. This will release any accumulated hydrogen gas. As the gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame during this process.
  12. Do not wash plastic items unless marked "dishwasher safe" or the equivalent. For plastic items not so marked, check the manufacturer's recommendations.
  13. Do not tamper with controls.
  14. Always remove the door to the washing compartment when removing an old dishwasher from service or discarding it.
  15. Use caution when unloading the dishwasher. Dishes will be hot if unloaded shortly after a cycle has completed.

Save These Instructions

Before You Start

  • Don't Prerinse. Simply scrape off any bones or large food particles.
  • If connected to a food waste dispenser, make certain the dispenser is empty before starting the dishwasher.
  • Scrape off tomato-based food soils (see page 7).

  • Remove certain foods (such as mustard, mayonnaise, lemon juice, vinegar, salt or dressings) from stainless steel flatware as soon as possible. These foods may cause rusting and pitting if allowed to remain in contact with the surface for an extended period of time.

General Recommendations

  • Place all items in the racks so they are separated and facing center.
  • Items can be centered behind a single tine or loaded at an angle to maximize space.

  • Load items so they do not rest over the top of the wash tower.

  • Avoid blocking the upper and lower spray arms by not allowing items to extend beyond the racks.

For best dishwashing results follow these guidelines to determine the best arrangement for your items.

Upper Rack

Positioning Fold-Away™ tines (select models) flat in the right rear corner, provides convenient loading space for large, bulky items.

Removing the Upper Rack

The upper rack can be removed when tall or oversized items need to be loaded into the lower rack.

Note: Avoid resting items over the center wash tower.

To remove:

  • Roll the upper rack 1/3 to 1/2 of the way out.
  • Remove the plastic rack stop from the end of each track. To remove each plastic rack stop, push inward (towards the rack) on the ridged area of the rack stop. The rack stop will snap open and can be easily removed by pulling straight out. Take care to support the track while removing rack stops.

  • Roll the rack all the way out of the track and remove from the dishwasher.

  • Reverse the above procedure to replace the upper rack into the dishwasher.

Removable Utensil Basket (Design varies by model)

For best cleaning results, prevent items from nesting together by placing some items in the basket with handles up and some with handles down. Load knives, handles up, through the slots in the covered section (when closed).

Be sure that thin, finely pointed items do not extend through the basket. This could block the lower wash arm.

Small, lightweight items like baby spoons and plastic measuring spoons should be placed in the covered section of the basket for washing.

Dishwashing Essentials

Hot Water

For optimal cleaning and drying results, hot water is necessary. The incoming water temperature should be 120 - 140^ (49 - 60^) to properly activate the detergent and melt greasy food soils.

To check the incoming water temperature, turn on the hot water faucet nearest the dishwasher and let it run into a glass in the sink. Place a candy thermometer in the glass and check the temperature once it has stopped rising. If the temperature is below 120^ (49^) , have a qualified person raise the water heater thermostat setting.

Before starting the dishwasher, turn on the hot water faucet and let it run until the water is hot. This assures that the initial fill of water is hot.

Detergent

Use a detergent designed specifically for use in an automatic dishwasher. Be sure it is fresh and stored in a cool, dry place (not under the sink).

The amount of detergent to use depends on the water hardness* (measured in grains per gallon - gpg) and the amount of soil on the dishes. Too little detergent results in poor cleaning, hard water filming/spotting and poor drying. Too much detergent can cause permanent etching/cloudiness.

As a rule, use 1 teaspoon of detergent per grain of water hardness. In soft water, a minimum of 3 teaspoons is recommended.

Water Hardness* Detergent Amount per Cup

Soft (0-3 gpg) 3 teaspoons Medium (4-9 gpg) 4-9 teaspoons Hard (10-12 gpg) 10-12 teaspoons

*Your local water utility or state university extension service can tell you the degree of water hardness in your area.

For water hardness of 13-14 gpg add more detergent (1 teaspoon for each gpg above 12) to the beginning of the main wash portion of the cycle. Unlatch the door, open it slowly and add detergent to the bottom of the tub.

If water hardness is 15gpg or harder, it is difficult to achieve good results with any dishwasher. The solution is a mechanical water softener to improve water quality, detergent effectiveness, and protect the dishwasher parts from the damage that hard water deposits can cause.

Detergent Placement

The recommended amount of detergent is the per cup dosage. Do not divide this amount between cups. Each line in the detergent cup represents 3 teaspoons. Add detergent just before starting the cycle and close the cover. The detergent automatically dispenses.

For Heavy or Normal Wash, place the recommended amount of detergent in both the PRE WASH and MAIN WASH cups.

Light Wash requires detergent in the MAIN WASH cup only.

Do not use detergent with Rinse Only. Leave the detergent cup lid open when running Rinse Only.

Rinse Aid

Regular use of a rinse aid improves drying, reduces spotting and filming, and reduces moisture left on the dishwasher interior.

Your dishwasher features an automatic rinse aid dispenser located near the detergent cups in the door.

The clear window in the center of the dispenser cap allows you to see if there is rinse aid in the reservoir. When the window is colored, there is rinse aid in the dispenser. When the window becomes clear, it is time to refill the dispenser. Check the dispenser monthly.

To add rinse aid to the dispenser, turn the cap counterclockwise to open. Remove the cap and pour liquid rinse aid into the opening. Replace the cap and turn it clockwise.

Starting The Dishwasher

  1. After loading the dishwasher and adding detergent, set the control knob to the desired cycle and press the appropriate option(s).
  2. Press the door until it latches. The cycle will begin with a drain prior to fill.

Adding a Forgotten Item

For best cleaning, the forgotten item should be added early in the cycle.

  • Unlatch the door.
  • Wait for the water circulation to stop.
  • Open the door and add the item.
  • Close and latch the door.
    The cycle resumes automatically.

Care and Cleaning

Interior

The dishwasher interior is normally self-cleaning. Periodically check the bottom of the dishwasher tub to see if any large particles have not gone through the strainer portion of the module.

Wipe the edge of the inner door liner to remove any food soil splashes which occurred during loading.

The color from some tomato-based food soils has been known to occasionally adhere to today's dishwasher tubs, causing temporary discoloration. To help prevent this, when washing a load of dishes soiled with tomato sauce:

  • Scrape excess tomato-based food soils off of dishes, prior to loading. Do not prewash the dishes, however.
  • Run the Heavy Wash cycle.

Exterior

The front of the dishwasher can be cleaned with a soft damp cloth and liquid spray cleaner. Do not use abrasive powders or cleaning pads.

Storage/Moving

Fill both detergent cups with a fresh-scented dishwasher detergent or baking soda and select the Normal Wash cycle. Allow the dishwasher to complete the cycle. Then turn the water supply off and drain the dishwasher. To drain, start any cycle as all cycles begin with a drain. Listen for the drain to complete, then open the door to interrupt the cycle prior to the fill. Operate the drain twice to ensure most of the water is removed. Last, disconnect the electrical supply and prop open the door. (See Important Safety Instructions, #14, page 1).

To Change the Door Panel Insert (select models)

WARNING: Disconnect electrical power to the dishwasher before changing the door panel insert.

  1. Using a Phillips screw driver, remove either the right or left-hand door trim strips by removing the three screws.
  2. Grasp the panel insert(s) and gently flex out slightly. Slide Panel(s) out about two inches. Continue to flex insert panel(s) enough to remove them. Use care, edges may be

sharp.

  1. Select color and reinstall panel(s). Place insert panel(s) (notched corners at the top) on the inside of the lower door panel trim. Make sure the upper notched corners of the insert(s) are under the control panel.
  2. Reinstall the side trim.

MAYTAG MDBD820 - Disconnecting a Convertible - 1

Check these points to help save you time and money:

Won't Fill·Be sure door is latched securely. ·Be sure the water is turned on. ·Check that the dial/pad is properly selected for a cycle. ·Allow time for select models to drain/pause before filling. ·Check your home's circuit breaker or fuse box. ·Check inlet hose for a kink. ·Check water valve inlet for sediment and clean if necessary.
Won't Drain/Water in Tub Bottom·If connected to a food waste dispenser, be sure the knock-out is removed from the dis- poser inlet. ·Be sure the drain hose is elevated at least 32" so water cannot siphon back into the tub. ·Check for a food obstruction in the drain or dispenser. ·Check drain hose for a kink. ·Check your home's circuit breaker or fuse box. ·Check that the cycle is completed.
Detergent Cup Not Empty·Check that the cycle is completed. ·Be sure dispenser is not blocked. ·Use fresh detergent which has been stored in a cool, dry place.
Seems Noisy·A water valve hiss during fill is normal. ·Water circulation sounds are normal. ·A ticking noise is a normal timer sound. ·Athumping sound may be a wash arm bumping an item that is extending beyond the racks. ·Chopping or grinding sounds may be heard during drain as the internal food dispenser chops hard items like fruit seeds, nuts, etc. ·Humming during drain is normal. ·A snap noise is the detergent cup lid hitting the door liner when the dishwasher door is opened at the end of the cycle. This is normal. ·Proper installation affects the noise level.
Cycle Takes Too Long-(Heating Delay light stays on)·AccuTempTM (select models), Sani Heat (select models), or Extended Wash (select models) has been selected and the cycle is extended if the water temperature is low. (See pg. 6) ·Check to see that the incoming water temperature is 120-140°F (49-60°C).
Has An Odor·Run dishes being held in the dishwasher through a rinse Only cycle. ·Many dishwashers have a "new" smell when first installed. This will dissipate with use. ·Achemical odor is usually the chlorine bleach in dishwasher detergents. Try another brand. ·Dishwasher may not be draining properly. (See "Won't Drain" section.) ·For a strong odor try placing baking soda in both sides of the detergent cup. Select Light Wash and allow the water to circulate for about 10 minutes. Interrupt the cycle by unlatching the door and let it stand overnight. Restart the dishwasher by latching the door and allow it to complete the cycle. Another alternative is to use a commercial dishwasher cleaning product such as Jet-Dry Dishwasher Cleaner*.
Leaks·Check that the dishwasher is level. (Refer to the Installation Instructions.) ·Suds can cause the dishwasher to overflow. Measure the detergent carefully and use only detergents designed for use in a dishwasher. Less detergent is needed in soft water. Try another brand if sudsing continues. ·Follow directions closely on how to add a forgotten item (pg. 5). ·Be sure the Rinse Aid lid is securely attached and product is not leaking.
Food Soil Remains On Dishes·Check water temperature. (pg. 4) ·Run hot water at the sink before starting the dishwasher. ·Select Temp Boost, AccuTemp®, or Extended Wash(select models). ·Check water hardness and adjust detergent amount accordingly. (pg. 4) ·Use fresh detergent stored in a cool dry place. ·Select proper cycle for the soil level. ·Load items so they do not block the wash arms or center tower. (pgs. 2-3) ·Load the utensil basket with some handles up and some down to prevent nesting. ·Do not load glasses over tines. ·Prior to loading, scrape off burnt on foods and wipe the starchy film from utensils used with pasta, rice and oatmeal. These soils require more energy than the rest of the load to clean.
Glasses Are Cloudy/Spotted·Always use a rinse aid. ·Check water temperature, incoming water should be 120-140°F (49-60°C). ·Confirm that the cloudiness is removable by soaking the item in white vinegar for approximately 5 minutes. If removed, the problem is due to hard water. Adjust detergent amount being used to match water hardness (pg. 4). Be sure detergent is fresh, stored properly and is a high quality brand. ·If cloudiness is not removable, it is etching. This is an erosion of the surface of the glassware and can be caused by water that is too hot, from using too much detergent or by prewashing (the detergent needs food soil to act upon). If etching has occurred, the glassware is permanently damaged. To prevent further etching, adjust the detergent amount to match the water hardness, stop prewashing, and be sure incoming water is not greater than 140°F (60°C). Use water heating options only when incoming water temperature is below120°F (49°C).
Items Washed in the Dishwasher or the Dishwasher Tub Itself are Stained/ Discolored·Aluminum utensils or pans can leave marks when they rub against other items. Leave a slight space between items. ·Iron in the water can leave a yellow, brown or orange film on dishes or the dishwasher tub. A filter may be needed, check with a water treatment company. RoVer Rust Remover** can be used to remove rust. Do not use RoVer along with dishwasher detergent. Fill both detergent cups with RoVer and complete a Normal Wash cycle. Follow with a short wash cycle using dishwasher detergent. ·Color from tomato based products may adhere to the tub (pg. 7). If light staining has occurred, leave the door open to oxidize the stain away. For removal of heavier stains, try a citric acid containing dishwasher cleaning product such as Glisten**. Change dishwasher detergent and be sure to use a dishwasher detergent that contains chlorine for better stain fighting.
Items Not Properly Dried/Moisture is present on the dishwasher interior after the dry cycle.·Be sure Heated Dry is selected. ·Water droplets may form on the inner door as part of the drying process. ·Always use a rinse aid like Jet Dry* or Cascade Rinse Aid*. ·Check water temperature. (pg. 4) ·Select Temp Boost, Sani Heat, and/or AccuTemp™ (select models). ·Increase detergent amount to match water hardness. (pg. 4) ·Load properly. (pgs. 2-3) ·Plastic and teflon items are difficult to dry because the porous surface tends to collect water droplets. Towel drying may be necessary. ·Glasses and cups with concave bottoms can hold water and may require towel drying.
Dishware is Chipped·Load dishes according to instructions so they do not strike each other. (pgs. 2-3) ·Washing antique china/crystal in the dishwasher is not recommended. ·Do not load glasses over the tines. ·Do not overload.
