PDW8900 Series: Press the pad for the desired wash cycle.

PDW9700 and PDW9900 Series: Use the Arrow Pads to scroll through the wash cycles.

NOTE: All cycle times and water usage information contained in the following section are approximate values only. Actual results will depend on several factors, including but not limited to, inlet temperature, household water pressure, and turbidity of the wash water.

The light above or next to the selected pad will be ON to indicate which WASH CYCLE has been selected.

ANTI-BACTERIA Heavy 7.8 gal., 105 min.

Medium 6.7 gal., 95 min.

Light 5.6 gal., 85 min.

This cycle raises the water temperature in the final rinse to sanitize your dishware. The cycle length will vary depending on the temperature of your inlet water.

NOTE: The Anti-Bacteria cycle is monitored for sanitization requirements. If the cycle is interrupted during or after the main wash portion or if the incoming water temperature is so low that adequate water heating cannot be achieved, the sanitizing conditions may not be met. In these cases, the sanitized light will not illuminate at the end of the cycle.
