Water heating

The dishwasher will heat water during portions of the Pots & Pans, Normal and Light Wash Cycles to improve washability (see pages 6 and 7).

The Cycle Control Knob does not move while the water is heating. The heating time is based on the temperature of the water supply as it enters the dishwasher. The cooler the water, the longer the heating time. When the water temperature reaches 140°F (SO’C), the Cycle Control Knob will begin moving again. If the water supply is already hot enough, the dishwasher will not pause.

Lo-Energy Option

The dishwasher will not heat the wash water as described above when the Lo-Energy Option is selected. This will reduce the amount of electricity needed to run the dishwasher, but loads may not wash as well if the water supply temperature is too low. The Lo-Energy Option cannot be selected for the Pots & Pans Cycle.

Air Dry Option

Air in the dishwasher is automatically heated during the “dry” part of all cycles except Rinse & Hold.

If the Air Dry Option is selected, air in the dish- washer is not heated. Using this option helps save energy, but dishes take longer to dry (overnight) and some spotting may result. Some items (such as plastics) may need towel drying.

For best drying results, use a liquid rinse agent such as Jet-Dry.@
