Amana W10667782A Dishwasher Overview

Summary of Contents

• Page 1: User Guide In an effort to conserve natural resources, this dishwasher includes a condensed User Guide. A complete Owner’s Manual can be downloaded. For future reference, please make a note of your product model and serial numbers. Your safety and the safety of others are very important. This is the safety alert symbol.

• Page 2: 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. The dishwasher must be grounded. Grounding will reduce the risk of electric shock. For a grounded, cord-connected dishwasher, check with a qualified electrician if in doubt about grounding. Rinse aid is essential for good drying performance. The filtration system minimizes sound and optimizes water and energy conservation. To avoid damage, do not operate your dishwasher without filters properly installed. Energy efficiency is gained by extending cycle time and reducing wattage and water usage. The filters may need to be cleaned when visible objects or soils are present. Press start/resume every time you add a dish.
• Page 3: Recommended detergent has been reformulated to limit phosphorus in household dishwasher detergents to no more than 0.5%. It is recommended to use tablets and packs for convenience and improved performance. Prepare and load the dishwasher by ensuring all arms spin freely and removing leftover food and hard items from dishes. Make sure no items block the detergent dispenser when the dishwasher door is closed. Add detergent just before starting a cycle and use automatic dishwasher detergent only. Items should be loaded with soiled surfaces facing down and inward to improve cleaning and drying results. Avoid overlapping items that may trap food and wash only items marked “dishwasher safe.” Premeasured detergents are suitable for all hardness and soil levels and should be placed in the main compartment. Using dishwasher detergent tablets and packs has been proven better at reducing filming on dishes compared to other forms. Using a rinse aid can minimize the buildup of white film over time.
• Page 4: For most water conditions, the factory setting will give good results. The amount of detergent to use depends on the soil level and water hardness. Check water hardness level to ensure no rings or spots on dishware before adding rinse aid. Heavily soiled loads require more detergent. If you are experiencing poor drying performance, you may want to try a higher setting. Your dishwasher is designed to use rinse aid for good drying performance. Rinse aid keeps water from forming droplets that can dry as spots or streaks. To add rinse aid, turn the dispenser cap to “Refill” and lift off. If anyone opens the door, the START/RESUME button must be pressed each time. This information covers several different models; your dishwasher may not have all of the cycles and options described.
• Page 5: Dries dishes with heat. This option, with the use of rinse aid, will provide the best drying results. Use Heat Dry for optimum drying performance or turn the Heat Dry option off for air dry. Runs dishwasher at a later time. Press 4-HOUR DELAY. Delays start of a cycle up to 4 hours. Control Lock avoids unintended use of dishwasher between cycles. To turn on Control Lock, press and hold 4 HOUR DELAY for 3 seconds. Press to start or resume a wash cycle. The Clean indicator glows when a cycle is finished. Clean the exterior of dishwasher with a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent.
• Page 6: Problem solver First try the solutions suggested here. If you experience issues with the dishwasher not running or stopping during a cycle, check if the door is closed tightly and latched, if the right cycle is selected, and if there is power to the dishwasher. If the motor stops due to an overload, it will automatically reset itself within a few minutes. Check if the water shutoff valve is turned on and ensure the overfill protection float can move freely. If the clean light is flashing, check for suds in the dishwasher, which can prevent proper operation. Dishes not drying completely may require the use of rinse aid along with the heat dry option. Proper loading of items can affect drying; unload the bottom rack first for better results. Surging sounds can occur while the dishwasher is draining, and normal water valve hissing may be heard. Improper installation can affect noise levels; ensure filters are properly installed. A thumping sound may indicate that items are interfering with the wash arms and need to be readjusted.
• Page 7: If you experience spotting/filming, liquid rinse aid is necessary for drying and to reduce spotting. Use the correct amount of detergent. Confirm that the cloudiness is removable by soaking the item in white vinegar for 5 minutes. Be sure the incoming water temperature is set at 120°F (49°C). To remove spotting, run a vinegar rinse through the dishwasher. Be sure the dishwasher is loaded correctly. Check filter to ensure it is properly installed. Select the proper cycle for the type of soils. If foam or suds are detected, the dishwasher may not operate properly. Be sure the cycle has been completed for proper drainage. Check for kinks in the drain hose.

• Page 9: Guide d’utilisation du lave-vaisselle. Ce lave-vaisselle comprend un guide d’utilisation rapide. Un manuel de l’utilisateur complet est téléchargeable en ligne. Consignez par écrit les numéros de modèle et de série de votre produit. Votre sécurité et celle des autres est très importante. Lisez tous les messages de sécurité et conformez-vous-y. Risque possible de décès ou de blessure grave si vous ne suivez pas les instructions. Instructions de sécurité importantes à suivre lors de l’utilisation du lave-vaisselle. Ne pas faire fonctionner le lave-vaisselle si tous les panneaux ne sont pas en place. L’hydrogène est un gaz explosible; laissez couler l’eau chaude avant d’utiliser le lave-vaisselle.
• Page 10: Avertissement : Risque de basculement. Ne pas utiliser le lave-vaisselle jusqu’à ce qu’il soit complètement installé. Le non-respect de ces instructions peut causer des blessures graves ou des coupures. La connexion incorrecte du conducteur pour relier les appareils à la terre peut causer le risque de choc électrique. Le lave-vaisselle doit être relié à la terre. Un agent de rinçage est essentiel pour un bon séchage. Le système de filtration minimise le niveau sonore et optimise la consommation d'eau et d'énergie. Ne pas faire fonctionner le lave-vaisselle sans que les filtres ne soient correctement installés. Les filtres devront peut-être être nettoyés lorsque des objets ou saletés sont visibles. Ne pas utiliser de brosse métallique ou d'objets similaires car ils peuvent endommager les filtres.
• Page 11: Détergent recommandé Les États-Unis et le Canada ont voté une restriction limitant la quantité de phosphore dans les détergents domestiques pour lave-vaisselle à un maximum de 0,5 %. Il est recommandé d’utiliser des pastilles et sachets pour lave-vaisselle pour un plus grand confort d'utilisation et une meilleure performance. Utilisation du lave-vaisselle Préparer et charger le lave-vaisselle en respectant les modes de chargement suggérés pour séparer les couverts et obtenir un lavage optimal. Vérifier que tous les bras d'aspersion tournent librement. Enlever les restes alimentaires, os, cure-dents et autres articles durs de la vaisselle. Vérifier qu'aucun article ne bloque le distributeur de détergent lorsque la porte du lave-vaisselle est fermée. Charger les articles dans le panier en orientant la surface sale vers le bas et vers l'intérieur. Éviter le chevauchement d'articles tels que bols ou assiettes pouvant retenir les aliments. Utiliser uniquement du détergent pour lave-vaisselle automatique. Pour de meilleurs résultats de lavage, il est recommandé d'utiliser un détergent à lave-vaisselle automatique frais. Lors du chargement des couverts, toujours charger les articles acérés pointés vers le bas.
• Page 12: Pour la plupart des types d'eau, le réglage effectué à l'usine donne de bons résultats. Beaucoup de détergents sont vendus en format pré-mesuré, idéaux quelle que soit la dureté de l'eau et de saleté. Il est prouvé que les détergents pour lave-vaisselle en pastilles ou en sachets réduisent plus efficacement la formation de pellicule sur la vaisselle. L'utilisation d’un agent de rinçage peut aussi aider à réduire la fréquence de formation de pellicule blanche. La quantité de détergent à utiliser dépend du degré de saleté de la vaisselle et de la dureté de l'eau. Les lave-vaisselle éconergiques fonctionnent plus longtemps pour économiser de l’eau et de l’énergie. Votre lave-vaisselle est conçu pour utiliser un agent de rinçage afin d'obtenir un séchage satisfaisant. Un agent de rinçage empêche l'eau de former des gouttelettes qui peuvent laisser des taches. Si l'on ouvre la porte, il faudra appuyer sur le bouton START/RESUME chaque fois. Ces renseignements couvrent plusieurs modèles différents. Votre lave-vaisselle peut ne pas comporter tous les programmes et options indiqués.
• Page 13: Pour des résultats rapides, le lavage en 1 heure nettoie la vaisselle en utilisant légèrement plus d'eau et d'énergie. Pour un meilleur séchage, sélectionner l'option Heated Dry (séchage avec chaleur). Augmente la température de l'eau pour améliorer le nettoyage des charges comportant des résidus alimentaires difficiles à nettoyer. Séche la vaisselle à l'air chaud. Associée à l'utilisation d'un agent de rinçage, cette option permet un séchage idéal. Utilise l'élément de chauffage à la fin du programme pour de meilleurs résultats de séchage. Diffère le fonctionnement du lave-vaisselle. Bien fermer la porte et sélectionner un nouveau programme de lavage. Chaque fois que l'on ouvre la porte, il faut rappuyer sur le bouton Start/Resume pour que le compte à rebours reprenne. Évite l'utilisation involontaire du lave-vaisselle entre deux programmes ou des modifications de programmes. Pour activer le verrouillage des commandes, appuyer sur 4 Hour Delay pendant 3 secondes. L'indicateur de la fonction “Clean” s'allume lorsqu'un programme est terminé.
• Page 14: Entretien du lave-vaisselle Si le lave-vaisselle ne se vidange pas correctement. Nettoyer l’extérieur du lave-vaisselle avec un chiffon doux et humide et un détergent doux. Un nettoyant pour acier inoxydable est recommandé pour les modèles en acier inoxydable. Élimination de l'eau dure/de la pellicule : utilisation mensuelle recommandée d'un produit d'entretien. Placer une pastille dans le compartiment de lavage principal du distributeur de détergent. Si l'on n'utilise pas le lave-vaisselle pendant l'été, couper l'arrivée d'eau et l'alimentation électrique. S'assurer que les tuyaux d'alimentation en eau sont protégés contre le gel. Lors du remisage du lave-vaisselle pendant l'hiver, éviter tout dommage lié à l'eau. Résolution de problèmes : essayer d’abord les solutions suggérées ici. Vérifier que le robinet d'eau d'alimentation du lave-vaisselle est ouvert.
• Page 15: Solutions recommandées pour les problèmes suivants. La vaisselle n'est pas complètement sèche. Un séchage au torchon peut être nécessaire. L'utilisation d'un agent de rinçage avec l'option Heat Dry est nécessaire pour un séchage correct. Un bon chargement des articles peut affecter le séchage. Les verres et les tasses à fond concave retiennent l'eau. Décharger le panier inférieur en premier. Des bruits de pompage peuvent se produire régulièrement pendant le programme. Un agent de rinçage liquide est nécessaire pour le séchage et pour réduire les taches. Vérifier que la température d'eau d'entrée est réglée à 120°F (49°C). Le lave-vaisselle ne nettoie pas complètement la vaisselle. S'assurer que le programme est terminé avant de procéder à la vidange.
