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.
