FRIGIDAIRE 1500 Series - Manual (Page 4)

Your dishwasher cleans by spraying a mixture of hot water and detergent through the spray arms against
soiled surfaces. Next, the dishwasher fills with water covering the filter area. Water is then pumped through
the filter and spray arms. Soil particles go down the drain as the water is pumped out and replaced with clean
water. The number of water fills will vary with the cycle being used.

Very Important Information—Read
Before Operating Your
Dishwasher!
Normal Operating Sounds
This dishwasher does not sound like most
dishwashers—IT'S QUIETER.
Your Precision Direct Wash System®
dishwasher 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 arms spray 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!
