Two Level Wash Feature
A separate spray tube or rotating spray arm assures excellent washability in the upper rack, and another rotating
spray arm thoroughly washes all dishes in the lower rack This arrangement permits complete flexibility of loading
without concern of blocking the water pattern to either rack See Figure 13
1 Water Charge iSee Figure 14Î
Water enters the dishwasher through the solenoid operated water inlet waive
The valve is energized through the timer Water will enter the machine for approximately one minute (All dish­
washers are time filled 1 Some models fill for 90 seconds Also some models have 45 second water charges built
into water miser and normal wash cycles Refer to tech sheet in console
NOTE:
The float switch controls the amount of water entering the dishwasher The fill is also time controlled If the
timer fails to advance or the water pressure is extremely high, the float switch will open the circuit to the water
inlet valve thus preventing a flood If the float sticks or does not cut power to the valve, the timer acts as a safety
to turn power off after the allotted fiit time The float and timer switch will not protect against a mechanical failure
of the valve
To satisfactorily clean dishes, the 24" dishwasher rrrust have a water charge of 8 to 11 quarts The 18" models
require 6 5 to 8 quarts If poor washability is experienced, be certain to check for the correct water charge
