Key Features

39 dBA Ultra-Quiet Operation

At 39 dBA, KitchenAid describes this model as its quietest cleaning dishwasher, making it suitable for open-concept kitchens where minimizing appliance noise is important.

30+ Targeted Wash Jets

More than 30 wash jets are distributed across three wash arms to provide targeted cleaning coverage throughout the dishwasher.

The system is designed to help clean dishes thoroughly without requiring pre-rinsing.

Triple Filtration System

The Triple Filtration System uses three levels of filtration to remove food particles during both wash and rinse cycles.

• Three levels of filtration
• Continuously removes food particles
• Helps circulate cleaner water through the wash arms
• Designed to maintain cleaning performance with dirty cookware in the load

Third Level Utensil Rack

The third-level rack provides additional loading space for long and flat items such as:

• Silverware
• Serving utensils
• Spatulas
• Other slim kitchen tools

Adjustable Middle Rack

The adjustable middle rack provides additional flexibility for different types of cookware.

Lower the rack to accommodate large dishes, or raise it to create space for taller items in the rack below, including:

• Stand mixer bowls
• Platters
• Pitchers
• Blender jars
• Large dishes

ProWash™ Cycle

The ProWash™ Cycle uses sensors to measure soil levels throughout the cycle and automatically adapts wash time and water temperature according to the load.

This helps provide appropriate cleaning performance for both lighter everyday loads and tougher messes.

Express Wash Cycle

The Express Wash Cycle thoroughly cleans dishes in just over an hour, providing a convenient option when clean dishes are needed quickly while cooking, preparing, or entertaining.

Drying Performance

Heat Dry Option

The Heat Dry option heats both the final rinse water and the air inside the dishwasher to help dishes come out dry and ready to use.

Drying flexibility includes:

• Heat Dry option
• Regular drying cycle option
• Extended drying cycle option
• Adjustable drying time for different loads

Sani-Rinse Option

The Sani-Rinse option adds a high-heat final rinse designed to sanitize dishes and eliminate 99.999% of food-soil bacteria, according to the supplied manufacturer specification.

Flexible Rack System

Three-Level Loading

SatinGlide™ Rails

SatinGlide™ Rails allow the third and middle racks to move smoothly, making loading and unloading easier.

Stainless Steel Interior

The durable stainless steel interior provides the appearance and benefits of stainless steel while helping resist:

• Streaks
• Stains
• Odors

The stainless steel interior also retains heat to support improved drying performance.

PrintShield™ Finish

The PrintShield™ Finish is designed to resist smudges and fingerprints on the stainless steel exterior.

The specialized coating can be cleaned with water and a soft cloth for easy everyday maintenance.

Leak Identification System

The integrated Leak Identification System helps detect most types of leaks and includes a drip tray beneath the dishwasher.

If the system detects a problem, the dishwasher can:

• Stop filling
• Drain the tub
• Alert that service is needed

Leak Detection Limitations

According to the supplied specifications, the system does not detect:

• Leaks from water inlet connections
• Tub drain connections
• Water inlet or drain hoses
• Leaks caused by cracked tubs
• Leaks caused by cracked doors

Quiet & Convenient Top-Control Design

The top controls are positioned on the top of the dishwasher door for a clean, streamlined appearance.

A front indicator light changes colors to subtly communicate cycle progress.

Efficiency-Focused Eco Series

KitchenAid states that its Eco Series dishwashers are designed to provide efficient wash and dry performance while helping save water, energy, and money compared with dishwashers meeting the minimum 2023 U.S. Department of Energy efficiency standards.
