Proper Use of Detergent
For heavily-soiled loads, use the Pots and Pans or
Use only detergent specifically made for use
in dishwashers. Cascade® and Electrasol®
Automatic Dishwashing Detergents have been
approved for use in all GE dishwashers. Keep
your detergent fresh and dry. Don’t put powder
detergent into the dispenser until you’re ready
to wash dishes.
Heavy Wash cycle and add a little extra detergent.
DO NOTUSE HAND DISH DETERGENT
The amount of detergent to use depends on
whether your water is hard or soft. With hard
water, you need extra detergent. With soft water,
you need less detergent.
Protect your dishes and dishwasher by
contacting your water department and asking
how hard your water is. Twelve or more grains
is extremely hard water. A water softener is
recommended. Without it, lime can build up
in the water valve, which could stick while open
and cause flooding. Too much detergent with
soft water can cause a permanent cloudiness
of glassware, called etching.
NOTE: Using a detergent that is not specifically
designed for dishwashers will cause the dishwasher
to fill with suds. During operation, these suds will spill
out of the dishwasher vents, covering the kitchen
floor and making the floor wet.
Use the information in the table below as a
guideline to determine the amount of automatic
dishwasher detergent to place in the dispenser.
Because so many detergent containers look alike,
store the dishwasher detergent in a separate space
from all other cleaners. Show anyone who may use
the dishwasher the correct detergent and where
it is stored.

Loading the dishwasher racks.
For best dishwashing results, follow these loading guidelines. Features and appearance of racks and silverware
baskets may vary from your model.
Secure larger dishwasher-safe plastics over
2 tines when possible.
Upper Rack
Although the upper rack is for glasses,
cups and saucers, pots and pans can be
placed in this rack for effective cleaning.
Make sure small plastic items are secure so
they can’t fall onto the heater.
Be sure that items do not protrude through
the bottom of the rack and block rotation of
the middle spray arm. This could result in
poor wash performance for items in the
upper rack.
Cups and glasses fit best along the sides.
This is also a secure place for dishwasher-
safe plastics.
The upper rack is good for all kinds of
odd-shaped utensils. Saucepans, mixing
bowls and other items should be placed
face down. Fold-down tines (on some
models) provide flexibility for extra-large
and hard-to-fit items.
Lower Rack
Also, be careful not to let a portion of an
item such as a pot or dish handle extend
through the bottom rack. This could block
the wash arm and cause poor washing
results.
The lower rack is best used for plates,
saucers and cookware. Large items such
as broiler pans and baking racks should
go along the left-hand side. Load platters,
pots and bowls along the sides, in corners
or in the back. The soiled side of items
should face the center of the rack. If
necessary, oversized glasses and mugs
can be placed in the lower rack to
Fold-down tines (on some models) provide
flexibility for extra-large and hard-to-fit
items. The tines may be left in the up
position or folded down to customize
the lower rack.
maximize loading flexibility.
Three-piece basket
The lids of both end and middle baskets
(on some models) can be closed to contain
small items. Long items can be placed
on the utility shelf in the upper rack.
Silverware Basket
To load flatware, simply push the
adjustable handle to either side. Put
flatware in the removable basket with
fork and knife handles up to protect your
hands. Place spoons in the basket with
handles down. Mix knives, forks and
spoons so they don’t nest together.
Distribute evenly. Small plastic items,
such as measuring spoons and lids from
small containers should go in the bottom
of the silverware basket with the
silverware on top.
Don’t let any
item extend
through
bottom.
To remove end baskets, grasp
the basket at opposite corners
and slide apart.
A variety of options is available regarding
the three-piece silverware basket in your
dishwasher. The complete basket is
designed to fit on the right side of the
lower rack. Additionally, each end of
the basket is removable to add loading
flexibility to accommodate flatware
and lower rack capacity needs.

Cleaning the Exterior Door Panel
Before cleaning the front panel, make
sure you know what type of panel you
have. Refer to the last two letters of your
model number. You can locate your model
number on the left-hand tub wall just
inside the door. If your model number
ends with BB, WW or CC, then you have a
Painted Door panel. If your model number
ends with SS, then you have a Stainless
Steel Door panel. If your model number
ends with CS, then you have a CleanSteel
Door panel.
Stainless Steel Door Panel (model
numbers ending in SS)
The stainless steel panels can be
cleaned with Stainless Steel Magic or a
similar product using a clean, soft cloth.
Do not use appliance wax, polish, bleach
or products containing chlorine on
Stainless Steel doors.
You can order Stainless Steel Magic
#WX10X15 through GE Parts by calling
800.626.2002.
CleanSteel Door Panel (model numbers
ending in CS)
Follow the instructions below for cleaning
the door panel for your specific model.
Use a clean, soft, lightly dampened cloth,
then dry thoroughly. Do not use appliance
wax, polish or any chemical agent on
CleanSteel doors.
Painted Door Panel (model numbers
ending in BB–black, WW–white or
CC–bisque)
Use a clean, soft, lightly dampened cloth,
then dry thoroughly. You may also use a
good appliance wax or polish.
Do not wipe the dishwasher with a soiled
dish cloth or wet towel. These may leave
a residue. Do not use scouring pads or
powdered cleaners because these
products can scratch the finish.
Cleaning the Control Panel
To clean the control panel, use a lightly
dampened cloth. Then dry thoroughly.
Stainless Steel Interior—Tub and Inner Door
The stainless steel used to make the
dishwasher tub and inner door provides
the highest reliability available in a GE
dishwasher. If the dishwasher tub or inner
door should be scratched or dented during
normal use, they will not rust or corrode.
These surface blemishes will not affect
their function or durability.

Caring for the dishwasher.
Spray Arms and Filters
The dishwasher will flush away all
normal food soils. However, objects (fruit
pits, bones, etc.) may collect in openings
and should be removed occasionally to
avoid clogging the drain system.
Cleaning the Filters
For best performance and results, the
filter assembly must be cleaned regularly.
The filter efficiently removes food particles
from the wash water, allowing water to
be recirculated during the cycle. For this
reason, it is a good idea to remove the
large food particles trapped in the filter
frequently by rinsing the main filter and
cup under running water. To remove the
filter assembly, pull up on the cup handle.
The entire filter assembly should be
cleaned at least once a month. To clean
the main filter and fine filter, use a cleaning
brush. Then, reassemble the filter parts
as shown in the illustration and reinsert
the entire assembly in the dishwasher,
positioning it in place and pressing
downward. The dishwasher must

clog the spray arm jets and bearings,
it is necessary to clean the spray arms
regularly. To remove the spray arm, twist

Does Your Dishwasher Have an Air Gap?
Air gap
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. It is not covered by your
warranty. Not all plumbing codes require
air gaps, so you may not have one.
The air gap is easy to clean.
Turn off the dishwasher and lift off the
cover.

Troubleshooting Tips
Save time and money! Review the charts on the following
pages, or visit ge.com. You may not need to call for service.
Problem
Possible Causes
What To Do
Dishes and flatware
not clean
Low inlet water temperature
• Make sure inlet water temperature is correct (see page 6). Turn on
the hot water faucet nearest the dishwasher, let run until the water
temperature stops rising. Then start the dishwasher and turn off
the faucet. This insures the entering water is hot.
Water pressure is temporarily low • Turn on a faucet. Is water coming out more slowly than usual?
If so, wait until pressure is normal before using your dishwasher.
Air gap or disposer is clogged
Improper rack loading
• Clean the air gap or flush the disposer.
• Make sure large dishware does not block the detergent dispenser
or the wash arms. See the Loading the dishwasher racks section.
No air gap or high drain loop
• Verify that you have an air gap or a high drain loop. Refer to
the Installation Instructions.

Combination of soft water and
too much detergent
• This is called etching and is permanent. To prevent this from happening,
use less detergent if you have soft water. Wash glassware in the shortest
cycle that will get them clean.
Water temperature entering
the dishwasher exceeds 150°F
• This could be etching. Lower the water heater temperature.
Suds in the tub
Correct detergent
wasn’t used
• Use only automatic dishwasher detergents to avoid sudsing.
