America’s Cleanest Dishes
How the ULTRA WASH* System works
Your dishwasher’s new ULTRA WASH Soil Removal
System is designed to give you sparkling clean dishes
in the shortest amount of time with the least amount of
energy necessary. The ULTRA WASH System includes a
heavy duty grinder that acts as a food disposer to grind
and dispose of large food particles.
Here’s how the ULTRA WASH Soil Removal
System works:
1 . When you load the dishwasher, all you need to do is
remove bones, large chunks, or burned-on food. Any
remaining food will be ground up and disposed.
2. Hot water fills the dishwasher to a level near the
bottom of the overfill protector.
3. While the water is heated, the Water Heating indicator
on the control panel glows.
4. Detergent is added at the correct times from the
detergent dispenser, and hot water is pumped
through the ULTRA WASH pump.
5. Food particles are removed from dishes, pots and
pans, tableware, and cutlery as the dishwasher
sprays a mixture of hot water and detergent through
two spray arms against their soiled surfaces.
6 . Food soil in the dishwasher is held in an
accumulating chamber so it does not recirculate
into the dishwasher.
7. Water is pumped again through the ULTRA WASH
pump to remove soil particles from the water, and
“hold” them in the accumulating chamber Q.
8 . Soil in the ULTRA WASH Soil Removal System is
disposed down the drain with the wash water Q.
9. Fresh, hot water enters the dishwasher, sprays on the
dishes to rinse them, and the rinse water is pumped
through the ULTRA WASH System to remove any
remaining soil.
10. Soil that is held in the ULTRA WASH Soil Removal
System is disposed down the drain with the
rinse water.
11 . Final rinse water is heated and a rinse agent is added
to prepare the dishes for drying.
