■Use cycles or options that add extra heat to the wash or rinse portion of the cycle only when needed.
■Run your dishwasher with full loads. Run a rinse cycle after meals until the dishwasher is full.
■If your home is equipped with a water softener, you may want to avoid starting the dishwasher during the regeneration of the softener, since this may contribute to poor wash performance.
Cycle Selection Charts
Select the wash cycle and options desired and press START/ RESUME. The dishwasher starts filling once you press START/ RESUME, unless you select a delay wash. You can select an option as the machine is filling.
After a wash cycle, the dishwasher remembers the options used and uses the same options in the next wash cycle unless new options are selected or Cancel/Drain is selected.
A “●” shows what steps are in each cycle. Your model may have some or all of the cycles shown.
Temperatures indicate where extra heat is added.
Water usage is shown in U.S. gallons/liters.
These models meet the ENERGY STAR® guidelines for energy efficiency.
Cycle time includes dry time. An asterisk ( * ) by the cycle time indicates the cycle time might be longer depending on the temperature of the water entering the dishwasher. The cooler the water, the longer the cycle time. If the water is already hot enough, the cycle time will be as shown.
