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

If your dishwasher has more than one wash cycle, you can change a cycle anytime during a cycle.

1.Lift the door latch to stop the cycle.

2.Press a cycle and, if desired, press an option.

3.Turn the cycle control knob clockwise.

4.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.

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

Adding Items During a Cycle

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

To add items

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.
