ENERGY-SAVING TmS
●Operate dishwasher only when it’s full. Let the dishes accumulate in dishwasher. When you put in only a partial load, use the RINSE & HOLD cycle to rinse off heavy soils. Be sure to latch the door when waiting for a full load. This helps keep soils moist, easier to remove.
●If you don’t need your dishes right away, use your ENERGY SAVER option (energy saver drying feature) that turns the drying heater off automatically. Dishes dry naturally over a longer period such as overnight.
●Always select the cycle that uses the least amount of water that will remove the soil from the load. (See the Operating section).
