Cycle Selection Charts

Select the wash cycle. If the door is latched, you will hear the dishwasher start and stop as the cycle control knob turns. This is normal and does not hurt the dishwasher. If you prefer, you can set the cycle control knob with the door unlatched.

Turn the cycle control knob to the desired cycle.

A “●” shows what steps are in each cycle.

Water usage is shown in U.S. gallons/liters.

Cycle time includes dry time.

Adding Items During a Cycle

You can add an item anytime before the main wash starts, or the cycle control knob reaches Normal wash.

1.Lift up the door latch to stop the cycle. Wait for the spraying action to stop before opening the door.

2.Open the door and add the item.

3.Close the door, but do not latch it. Wait 30 seconds for the air in the dishwasher to warm up. This reduces the amount of moisture escaping from the vent when restarting a cycle.

4.Close the door firmly until it latches. The dishwasher resumes the cycle.

NORMAL WASH

Use this cycle for loads with normal amounts of food soil. (The energy-usage label is based on this cycle.)

Use both detergent dispenser sections.

Option Selections

You can change an option anytime before the selected option begins. For example, you can press an unheated drying option any time before drying begins.

Air Dry

Select this energy-saving option to dry without heat. Air drying is useful when loads contain plastic dinnerware that may be sensitive to high temperatures.

The dishes take longer to dry and some spotting can occur. For best drying, use a liquid rinse aid. Some items (such as plastics) may need towel drying.

Canceling a Cycle

You can cancel a cycle at anytime.

1.Turn the cycle control knob slowly clockwise until you hear water draining. Let the dishwasher drain completely.

2.Open the door.

3.Turn the cycle control knob to Off.

Changing a Cycle or Setting

You can change a cycle anytime during a cycle.

1.Lift the door latch to stop the cycle.

2.Turn the cycle control knob clockwise.

3.Check the detergent dispensers. They must be filled properly for the new cycle.

NOTE: Turning the cycle control knob can cause the covered detergent dispenser section to open and release the detergent. Check the covered section if the cycle uses detergent in both sections.

4.Close the door firmly until it latches. The dishwasher starts a new cycle.

Drying System

During drying, you can see steam escaping through the vent at the upper left corner of the door. This is normal as the heat dries your dishes.

IMPORTANT: The vapor is hot. Do not touch the vent during drying.

Overfill Protection Float

The overfill protection float (in the front right corner of the dishwasher tub) keeps the dishwasher from overfilling. It must be in place for the dishwasher to operate.

Check under the float for objects that may keep the protector from moving up or down.
