Thermador DW44ZW, DW44ZS, DW44ZP Unloading the Dishwasher, Upper Wash Cycle, Condensation Drying

Unloading

When unloading the dishwasher always unload the lower rack first and then unload the upper rack.This will minimize the chance of water drops from the up- per rack falling on the dishes in the lower rack. The silverware basket(s) of the Thermador dishwasher can be removed for easy unloading.

Dishware tends to get hot immediately following a completed cycle. If the door is opened slightly for a few minutes before unloading, the dishes will cool more quickly.

Condensation Drying

The combination of a high final rinse temperature, the tub’s cool stainless steel interior, and the sheeting ac- tion of a Rinse Agent result in effective and efficient drying. The closed condensation drying feature is hy- gienic, and saves energy and money. For best drying results, it is important that the Rinse Aid Dispenser be kept full.

The Thermador Model DW44Z has an Upper Wash cycle that saves energy and water when you have only

asmall load of dishes. Also, you’ll use less detergent for the Upper Wash cycle. The washing time, however, is not reduced.

The upper rack of the dishwasher has been designed with flexibility in mind.You can load glasses, cups, plates, bowls and small pots in many different positions to fit your needs. Figure 24 shows a typical mixed load placed correctly in the upper rack for the Upper Wash cycle.
