GE EDW4000 Triton XL Dishwasher Overview

Summary of Contents

• Page 1: Safety instructions Consumer support Product registration Warranty Operating instructions Care and cleaning Control panel and settings Loading place settings Loading the racks Using the dishwasher
• Page 2: Important safety information. Read all instructions before using. For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire or explosion, electric shock, or to prevent property damage, personal injury, or death. Hydrogen gas may be produced in a water heater that has not been used for two weeks or more. If the hot water has not been used for two weeks or more, turn on all hot water faucets and allow them to run for several minutes before using any electrical appliance connected to the hot water system. Use this appliance only for its intended purpose as described in this owner's manual. Proper installation and maintenance are essential. Improper connection of the equipment-grounding conductor can result in a risk of electric shock. To minimize the possibility of electric shock, disconnect this appliance from the power supply before attempting any maintenance. Do not tamper with controls or allow children to play around the dishwasher.
• Page 3: Risk of child entrapment is present with junked or abandoned dishwashers. If getting rid of an old dishwasher, follow proper disposal instructions to prevent accidents. Before throwing away your old dishwasher, take off the door or remove the door latch keeper. Do not wash non-dishware items like electronic filters or paint brushes in the dishwasher. Contents washed in the anti-bacteria cycle may be hot; use care before unloading. Use only recommended detergents and keep them out of children's reach. Do not touch the heating element during or immediately after use. Do not operate the dishwasher unless all enclosure panels are properly in place. Close supervision is necessary when the appliance is used by or near children. Load sharp knives with handles up to reduce the risk of injuries.
• Page 4: About the dishwasher control panel. You can locate your model number on the tub wall just inside the door. Throughout this manual, features and appearance may vary from your model. The status display tells you what’s happening while the dishwasher is in operation and may flash, indicating a malfunction. The lights will come on indicating the sequence of operation the dishwasher is in. The light remains on until the door is opened. Clean is displayed when a wash cycle is complete. The light will remain on until the door is opened. This cycle is meant for heavily soiled dishes or cookware with dried-on or baked-on soils. Everyday dishes are safe to be used in this cycle.
• Page 5: This cycle is for everyday dishes and glassware. This cycle is for heavily soiled china and crystal. This cycle is for lightly soiled china and crystal. Do not use detergent with this cycle. This washer is equipped with an extra clean sensor with automatic temperature control; therefore cycle length and time may vary depending on soil and temperature conditions. Only the anti-bacteria cycle has been designed to meet the requirements of Section 6, NSF 184 for soil removal and sanitization efficacy. This option must be selected prior to starting the cycle. This option adds 16 minutes to the cycle time. You can delay the start of a wash cycle for up to 8 hours. If you forget to fully close the door, a reminder signal will be emitted until you do so.
• Page 6: about the dishwasher control panel If you don’t want to change any of the settings, simply touch the T pad to begin the cycle. Close the dishwasher door and select the cycle and desired enhancements. The dishwasher remembers your last cycles so you don’t have to reprogram each time. The clean light is illuminated when a wash cycle is complete. Check the water temperature; it should be at least 120°F and not more than 150°F. Use Jet-Dry rinse agent to remove spots and prevent new film buildup on your dishes. The rinse agent dispenser holds 3.5 oz. of rinse agent and should be kept full. The amount of rinse agent released into the final wash can be adjusted. If there are rings of calcium spots on dishes, try a higher rinse agent setting. Clean up any spilled rinse agent with a damp cloth.
• Page 7: Using the dishwasher No pre-rinsing of normal food soil is required. Remove leafy vegetables, meat trimmings, and excessive amounts of grease or oil. Scrape off hard soils, including bones, toothpicks, skins, and seeds. Remove acidic food soils that can discolor stainless steel. The door must be closed to select a load selection or an enhancement. If the door is opened during a cycle and left open, the dishwasher will be on cease every minute until the door is closed. Use only detergent specifically made for use in dishwashers. Fill the main wash section with detergent and the pre-wash section if needed. It is normal for the cover to open partially when dispensing detergent. A forgotten dish can be added any time before the main wash.
• Page 8: Loading the dishwasher racks is essential for best washing results. Follow the loading guidelines provided. Upper rack items should be placed face down, and fold-down tines offer flexibility for larger items. The upper rack is suitable for glasses, cups, and saucers, but pots and pans can also be effectively cleaned here. Secure wine glasses in the upper rack for optimal washability, ensuring they clear the top of the dishwasher. The lower rack is designed for plates, saucers, and cookware, with large items placed along the left-hand side. Avoid letting any item extend through the bottom rack to prevent blocking the wash arm. Fold-down tines in the lower rack provide flexibility for loading oversized items. The silverware basket includes lids to prevent nesting and can accommodate various flatware arrangements. Place flatware in the basket with knife handles up and mix different types to avoid nesting. To remove the baskets, grasp from the top corners and slide apart.
• Page 9: Follow these guidelines for loading 10 places settings. Features and appearance of racks and silverware baskets may vary from your model. Upper rack — 10 places settings. Lower rack — 10 places settings. Follow these guidelines for loading 12 places settings. Features and appearance of racks and silverware baskets may vary from your model. Trupper rack — 12 places settings. Lower rack — 12 places settings. About optional accessories. Specify accessory number when ordering. This accessory contains a 1/4 thick decorative wood door. This accessory is for you to supply trim and install a 3/4 thick decorative wood door.
• Page 10: Caring for the dishwasher. Protect against freezing. Drain water from the water inlet line and water valve. If your dishwasher is left in an unheated place during the winter, ask a service technician to reconnect the water inlet line to the water valve. An air gap protects your dishwasher against water backing up into it if a drain clogs. The air gap is not a part of the dishwasher and is not covered by your warranty. The air gap is easy to clean. Check the air gap anytime your dishwasher isn't draining well. The stainless steel panels can be cleaned with a suitable product using a clean, soft cloth. You can order stainless steel magic through GE Parts.
• Page 11: Before you call for service, review the charts on the following pages or visit GEAppliances.com. You may not need to call for service. Troubleshooting tips save time and money. Time too long between each pad must be touched within 30 seconds of the others when you're resetting controls. Some of the sounds you’ll hear are normal. A small amount of clean water around the outlet on the tub bottom at the back of the tub keeps the water seal lubricated. If you do not use your dishwasher often, set it to fill and pump out once every week. This will help keep the seal moist. Use only automatic dishwasher detergents to avoid sudsing. Some detergents contain colorant that will discolor the tub interior with extended use. Make sure inlet water temperature is correct. If water pressure is temporarily low, wait until pressure is normal before using your dishwasher.
• Page 12: Before you call for service… Problem possible causes What to do Extremely hard water can cause spots and filming. Use Jet-Dry rinse agent to remove spots and prevent new film buildup. To remove stubborn spots and pre-existing film from glassware: Remove all metal utensils from the dishwasher. Do not add detergent. Select the pots & pans cycle. Start the dishwasher and allow to run for 18 to 22 minutes. Open the door and pour 2 cups of white vinegar into the bottom of the dishwasher. Close the door and allow to complete the cycle. An overall yellow or brown film can be caused by iron deposits in water. A special filter in the water supply line is the only way to correct this problem. To clean the interior, apply dishwasher detergent to a damp sponge. Do not use any type of cleaner other than dishwasher detergent. Make sure inlet water temperature is correct. Check the rinse agent dispenser. The door latch may not be properly seated. Call for service. Steam comes through the vent by the door latch during drying. Do not interrupt the cycle during or after the main wash portion. The incoming water temperature was too low. Raise the water heater temperature to 120°F.
