HEAT DRY

AIR DRY

The AIR DRY signal light will be ON when AIR DRY is selected. The AIR DRY Option helps save en- ergy, but the dishes take

longer to dry (overnight] and some water spot- ting may result. Some items (such as plastics) may need towel drying. For best results, use a liquid rinse aid such as Jet-Dry’” in the rinse aid dispenser.

When HI-TEMP is selected, the water for the main wash and final rinse is heated to 145°F (63°C). While the water is heat-

ing, the WATER HEATING signal light will be ON. POTS & PANS has the HI-TEMP option preset. HI- TEMP cannot be selected with RINSE & HOLD.

NOTE: The WATER HEATING signal light will flash at the end of the cycle if the water did not heat to 14s”F (63°C). (See page 17.)

DU9450XT specifications

The Whirlpool DU9450XT is a standout in the world of dishwashers, combining efficiency with user-friendly features to meet modern household demands. This model is particularly notable for its powerful cleaning capabilities and innovative technology that enhances the dishwashing experience.

This means that whether you have lightly soiled plates or heavily soiled pots and pans, the dishwasher optimizes the cleaning performance, ensuring that every wash is as efficient as possible.

Another key characteristic is its Quiet Wash system, designed to minimize noise during operation.

Energy efficiency is another standout feature. The DU9450XT is ENERGY STAR certified, which means it meets strict energy efficiency guidelines set by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency. This not only helps households save on utility bills but also reduces the environmental impact associated with dishwashing.

Interior space is well-designed, providing ample room for various dish sizes and types. The durable stainless steel interior enhances aesthetics while promoting better drying performance. A unique feature is the built-in food disposer that breaks down food particles, preventing clogging and ensuring that dishes come out clean every time.
