Frequently Asked Questions - GDT635HSRSS GE

What type of detergent to use for the GE GDT635HSRSS dishwasher?

Use preferably premium pre-measured tablets or packs. Liquid, powder, or gel detergents are also possible, but tablets reduce film residue better. Pour detergent just before starting a cycle.

How to adjust the rinse agent level?

To access the settings menu, press and hold the Hi Temp and Dry buttons simultaneously for 5 seconds. Then press Start/Resume. Use the Cycle or Normal buttons to change the value (from 0 to 6). Confirm with Start/Resume.

What does the H2O error code mean?

The H2O code indicates there is no water in the dishwasher. Check that the fill hose is properly connected and the water supply is on. Press Start to resume the cycle. If the alarm persists, contact customer service.

How to remove the upper rack?

Pull the rack halfway out. On one side, press the glide tab and pull the front of the rack out of the glides. Repeat on the other side, then lift the rack to remove it completely. To reinstall, push it onto the rails and lower the front.

What cycles are available?

Cycles include Sensor, Tough, Cookware, Normal, and options like Sani Rinse. The default cycle is Sensor with heated dry.

How to install the door handle?

Your safety and the safety of others are very important.

We have provided many important safety messages in this manual and on your appliance. Always read and obey all safety messages.

This is the safety alert symbol.

This symbol alerts you to potential hazards that can kill or hurt you and others.

All safety messages will follow the safety alert symbol and either the word "DANGER" or "WARNING."

These words mean:

DANGER

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't immediately follow instructions.

WARNING

You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't follow instructions.

All safety messages will tell you what the potential hazard is, tell you how to reduce the chance of injury, and tell you what can happen if the instructions are not followed.

IMPORTANT SAFETY INSTRUCTIONS

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

• Read all instructions before using the dishwasher.
  ■ Use the dishwasher only for its intended function.
  ■ Use only detergents or rinse agents recommended for use in a dishwasher, and keep them out of the reach of children.
  ■ When loading items to be washed:
• Read all instructions before using the dishwasher.
• Use the dishwasher only for its intended function.
• Use only detergents or rinse agents recommended for use in a dishwasher, and keep them out of the reach of children.
• When loading items to be washed:

■ Do not tamper with controls.
■ Do not abuse, sit on, or stand on the door, lid, or dish racks of the dishwasher.
■ Do not use replacement parts that have not been recommended by the manufacturer (e.g. parts made at home using a 3D printer).
■ To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to play in or on the dishwasher.
■ 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, before using the dishwasher 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 time.
■ Remove the door or lid to the washing compartment when removing an old dishwasher from service or discarding it.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

GROUNDING INSTRUCTIONS

■ For a grounded, cord-connected dishwasher:

The dishwasher must be grounded. In the event of a malfunction or breakdown, grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock by providing a path of least resistance for electric current. The dishwasher is equipped with a cord having an equipment-grounding conductor and a grounding plug. The plug must be plugged into an appropriate outlet that is installed and grounded in accordance with all local codes and ordinances.

WARNING: Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock.

Check with a qualified electrician or service representative if you are in doubt whether the dishwasher is properly grounded. Do not modify the plug provided with the dishwasher; if it will not fit the outlet, have a proper outlet installed by a qualified electrician.

■ For a permanently connected dishwasher:

The dishwasher must be connected to a grounded metal, permanent wiring system, or an equipment-grounding conductor must be run with the circuit conductors and connected to the equipment-grounding terminal or lead on the dishwasher.

SAVE THESE INSTRUCTIONS

WARNING

Tip Over Hazard

Do not use dishwasher until completely installed.

Do not push down on open door.

Doing so can result in serious injury or cuts.

DISHWASHER MAINTENANCE

Detergents

High-quality premeasured tablets and packs are recommended for improved performance.

Quality tablets and packs have been proven better than powder, liquid, or gel detergents at reducing filming on dishes. Using tablets and packs over time will start to reduce or eliminate white film. They are suitable for all water hardness and soil levels. Also, by using a rinse aid, you can minimize repeat buildup of white film (not all packs and tablets contain rinse aid). Always place premeasured detergents in main compartment and close lid.

NOTE: Follow instructions on the package when using other dishwasher detergent types.

■Use automatic dishwasher detergent only. Add detergent just before starting a cycle.
■Fresh automatic dishwasher detergent results in better cleaning. Store tightly closed detergent container in a cool, dry place.
■Extremely hard water mineral deposits (15 grains per U.S. gallon or more) can cause damage to your dishwasher and make it difficult to achieve good results. A water softener is recommended to avoid damage and achieve good results.
■For more details about powders, liquids, and gels and hard water conditions consult the brand website.

Rinse aid

Using rinse aid will optimize your drying and wash performance. This dishwasher is specifically designed to be used with rinse aid for improved drying performance and controlling buildup of hard water deposits. Rinse aid needs to be added to the product every 1 to 3 months depending on usage.

Refer to the Quick Start Guide or brand website for information about filling the rinse aid dispenser.

Cycle Selection and Energy

Efficient dishwashers run longer to save water and energy, just as driving a car slower saves on gas. Typical cycle time is approximately 2 1/2 hours, but can take less or significantly more time depending on your selections and incoming water temperature and amount of food soils on the dishes. For optimum performance the dishwasher should be connected to a 120 F (49°C) hot water supply.

If you first press the Start button, the main sensor cycle with heated drying will be automatically selected. This cycle senses the soil amount, and toughness of soil, to adjust the cycle for improved cleaning.

Sanitize or Sani

Sanitizes dishes and glassware in accordance with NSF International NSF/ANSI Standard 184 for Residential Dishwashers. Certified residential dishwashers are not intended for licensed food establishments. Only sanitizing cycles have been designed to meet the requirements of the NSF/ANSI 184 performance standard for soil removal and for sanitization efficacy. There is no intention, either directly or indirectly, that all cycles on a NSF/ANSI 184 certified dishwasher meet the NSF/ANSI 184 performance standard for soil removal and for sanitization efficacy. The Sani Rinse indicator glows at the end of the cycle if the Sani Rinse option was successfully completed. If the indicator does not activate, it is probably due to the cycle being interrupted.

DISHWASHER LOADING TIPS

NOTE: Features are model specific. Your dishwasher may not have all features described.

Silverware Baskets

Style 2

Use silverware basket lids to provide optimal spacing and best cleaning performance.

NOTE: If your silverware does not fit into the designated slots, open the lids (Style 1) or lift on the ends of the lids and pull to remove (Style 2). Mix silverware types to keep them separated. Load knives down, forks up, and alternate spoons for best cleaning results.

Removing Upper Racks

In order to make space for tall items, your upper racks are removable. The manner in which to remove will depend on whether the rack is mounted with Style 1 or Style 2. Remove dishes prior to removing any racks.

To remove the rack, pull the rack forward about halfway out of the tub. On one side, press the tab on the track in and pull up the front end of the rack, out of the track. Then repeat this step on the other side to completely remove the front end of the rack. Then remove the rack by pulling the back end out using a forward and upward motion.

To replace the rack, Push back of rack into rail first and then push front down.

Track Stop Rack

Style 2

To remove the rack, pull the rack out until it stops. On the left and right side of the rack, push the plastic track stops on the front of the rail sideways to open them. Pull out the rack.

To replace the rack, push the rack back onto the rails. Push the track stops closed.

Sliding Bowl Tines

DISHWASHER CARE

Interior Cleaning

Many detergents may leave white spots or a white residue on dishware and on the interior of the dishwasher. Over time this residue can become unsightly and could affect dishwasher performance. Use of a dishwasher cleaning product such as affresh® Dishwasher Cleaner can help to remove the residue. Monthly use of affresh® Dishwasher Cleaner is recommended to help maintain the dishwasher. Follow package directions.

NOTE: We recommend the use of high-quality, premeasured detergent tablets or packs and the use of rinse aid for dishwasher cleaning and daily care.

Countertop Air Gap

If you have a drain air gap, check and clean it if the dishwasher isn't draining well.

Extended Time Without Use

To Reduce Risk of Property Damage During Vacation or Extended Time Without Use

■When you will not be using the dishwasher during the summer months, turn off the water and power supply to the dishwasher.
■ Make sure the water supply lines are protected against freezing conditions. Ice formations in the supply lines can increase water pressure and cause damage to your dishwasher or home.
■Damage from freezing is not covered by the warranty. ■When storing your dishwasher in the winter, avoid water damage by having your dishwasher winterized by authorized service personnel.

Exterior Cleaning

Clean the exterior of dishwasher with a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent. Avoid using abrasive cleaning products on the exterior of the dishwasher. Abrasive cleaning products can damage the finish.
