KitchenAid 18-Series Dishwasher Owners Manual, Installation Instructions and Dishwasher Comparison Advertising Chart


Published by KitchenAid in 1978-- This is a three in one file. Part one has the entire KitchenAid 18-Series Dishwasher Owners Manual including the KDS-18.

Part two is the installation instructions for the 18 series dishwashers.

Part three is a top-of-the-line Dishwasher comparison chart comparing all aspects of the KitchenAid KDS-18 dishwasher to the General Electric, Maytag, Kenmore (D&M), Waste King and Whirlpool top-of-the line dishwashers. Makes for a fasinating read to say the least! Also included is the same comparison charts for the trash compactors and disposers.
