Washing System
Your dishwasher cleans by spraying a mixture
of hot, clean water and detergent against
soiled surfaces of dishes. When a cycle is
started, the dishwasher fills with water to about
the level of the heating element. This water is
pumped through the rotating spray arms,
through the POWER CLEAN* Module which re-
moves food particles, and back through the
rotating spray arms. Soiled water is pumped
out and replaced with clean water during a
cycle - the number of times depends on the
cycle being used.
