Very Important Information—
Read Before Operating Your
Dishwasher!
Normal Operating
Sounds
This dishwasher does not sound like most
dishwashers—IT’S QUIETER!
The new wash system uses energy efficient
motors for the wash and drain portions of the
cycle you select. Each cycle has a series of
water fills and drains for washing and rinsing
dishes. As each cycle begins, you may–or may
not–hear the drain motor.
The next sound you will hear is the splashing
water as it enters the tub. Then the lower arm
rotates and circulates water. This is followed
by a pause and a slightly different sound as
the upper arm sprays water. If you listen
closely, you will hear the change in sound as
the wash action switches from one arm to the
other.
PLEASE BE ADVISED: If you compare this
dishwasher to previous models, you may
be surprised at what you DON’T hear!
