SÉCURITÉ DU LAVE-VAISSELLE 26
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 s. 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." The words mean:
DANGER
WARNING
You can be killed or seriously injured if you don't immediately follow instructions.
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 your 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 wetting agents recommended for use in a dishwasher and keep them out the reach of children.
■ When loading items to be washed: -
Locate sharp items so that they are not likely to dan the door seal; and
- Load sharp knives with the handles up to reduce the risk of cut-type injuries.
■ Do not wash plastic items unless they are marked "dishwasher safe" or the equivalent. For plastic items not marked, check the manufacturer's recommendations.
■ Do not touch the heating element during or immediately after use.
■ Do not operate your dishwasher unless all enclosure panels are properly in place.
■ Do not tamper with controls.
■ Do not abuse, sit on, or stand on the door or dish racks the dishwasher.
■ To reduce the risk of injury, do not allow children to play or on a 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 not flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame during this time.
■ Remove the door to the washing compartment when removing an old dishwasher from service or discarding it.
■ Do not use replacement parts that have not been recommended by the manufacturer (e.g. parts made at home using a 3D printer).

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 AND CARE
User-Maintenance Instructions
Cleaning the Exterior
Clean the exterior of the dishwasher with only a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent. If your dishwasher has a stainless steel exterior, it may have a coating that is resistant to fingerprints. Avoid using abrasive cleaning products on the exterior of the dishwasher.
Cleaning and Maintaining the Interior
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.
Another method to remove white residue is to use a vinegar rinse. However, vinegar is an acid and using it too often could damage your dishwasher.
Place (do not pour) 2 cups (500 mL) of white vinegar in a glass or dishwasher-safe measuring cup on the bottom rack. Run the dishwasher through a complete washing cycle using an air-dry or an energy-saving dry option. Do not use detergent. Vinegar will mix with the wash water.
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.
If you have a drain air gap, check and clean it if the dishwasher is not draining well.

■ If the dishwasher will not be used during the summer 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.
Cleaning the Filters
It is very easy to remove and maintain the filters. The chart shows the recommended cleaning frequency.
| Recommended Time Interval to Clean Your Filter | |||
| Number of loads per week | If you only scrape before loading* | If you scrape and rinse before loading | If you wash before loading |
| 8–12 Every two months | Every four months | Once per year | |
| 4–7 Every two months | Once per year | Once per year | |
| 1–3 Twice per year | Once per year | Once per year | |
*Manufacturer's recommendation: This practice will conserve the water and energy that you would have used to prepare your dishes. This will also save you time and effort.
Very Hard Water
If you have hard water (above 15 grains), clean your filter at once per month. Building up of white residue on your dishwash indicates hard water. For tips on removing spots and stains, see the online "Troubleshooting" section.
NOTE: Online references can be found in the Quick Start Guid
Filter Removal Instructions
- Turn the upper filter assembly 1/4 turn counterclockwise and lift out.
- Separate the upper filter assembly by gently pulling apart.
- Clean the filters as shown.

Check Operation
- Read the dishwasher Quick Start Guide that came with your dishwasher.
■ Check that all parts have been installed and no steps were skipped. Check that you have all tools used.
If the dishwasher is not working properly, disconnect power or unplug dishwasher and refer to the "If Dishwasher Does Not Operate" section.
Using a flat-blade screwdriver, turn the fasteners 1/4 turn clockwise to lock into place. The fastener slot will be straight up and down when properly locked. Go to step 66.
If Dishwasher Does Not Operate
First try the solutions suggested here to possibly avoid the a service call.
■ Has the circuit breaker tripped or the house fuse blown?
■ Is the door closed tightly and latched?
■ Has the cycle been set correctly to start the dishwasher
■ Is the water turned on?
If none of these possible solutions work, refer to the conta information referenced in your Quick Start Guide.
Additional Tips
Expect longer wash times. Your new dishwasher will average 2–5 hours per load but use nearly 40% less energy than models. Designed with a low-wattage, low-energy-consumption motor, your dishwasher washes longer to ensure exceptional cleaning. Certain models are equipped with an optical water sensor, so the first cycle will run longer to calibrate the o sensor. Selecting certain options could increase cycle time p 3.5 hours.
Rinse aid is necessary for good drying results:
This dishwasher is designed to be used with rinse aid for good drying performance and controlling hard-water-deposit buildup.
Energy-efficient dishwashers use less water and energy, so they depend on the water sheeting action of rinse aid for good dry performance.
*Start/Resume light may flash:
When pressing Start/Resume, you must make sure the door isacted within 4 seconds. If you do not close the door within 4 seconds, the Start/Resume light will flash until you press it again. (You must also do this when adding a dish during the middle of a cycle.)
Front Status Light:
For dishwashers that have a status light on the front of the d this light will turn ON when a cycle is started and will remain until the end of the cycle (this includes through the dry portion the cycle) or the cycle is canceled. This front status light will off when the cycle is complete or canceled.
