Getting Started

1.Load dishwasher (See Preparing and Loading Dishes).

2.Add detergent (See Dishwasher Dispenser & Detergents).

3.Add rinse aid, if needed (See Rinse Aid).

4.Close door to latch.

5.Select desired CYCLE (See Cycle Chart). The indicator light above the pad will glow when selected.

6.Select desired OPTIONS (See Energy Options). The indicator light above the pad will glow when selected.

7.Run hot water faucet nearest dishwasher until water is hot. Turn water off.

8.To start, press START/CANCEL pad.

NOTE

The dishwasher is programmed to remember your last cycle so you do not have to reset each time. To start the dishwasher using the same cycle and options selected on the previous wash, just press the START/CANCEL pad.

Wash Cycle Selections

Cycle times are approximate and will vary with options selected. Hot water is necessary to activate dishwasher detergent and melt fatty food soils. An automatic sensor will check the incoming water temperature and, if it is not hot enough, the timer will be delayed for automatic water heating in the main wash of all cycles. This happens even when HI-TEMP WASH option has not been selected. When HI-TEMP WASH is selected, an even higher temperature will

be guaranteed to handle heavier soil loads.

To Cancel a Cycle

You can cancel a cycle anytime during the cycle. Press START/CANCEL pad and the dishwasher will start a 60 second drain. At the end of the drain, select the desired cycle.

Appearance may vary from your model.

Hi-Temp Wash

When HI-TEMP WASH option is selected, the dishwasher heats water in the main wash to approximately 140oF (60oC).

This increase in water temperature helps dishwasher detergent remove food greast and soil from dishes more effectively and aids in drying. HI-TEMP WASH option can be used with all cycles except CHINA CRYSTAL (some models) and RINSE & HOLD. HI-TEMP WASH is automatically provided when HEAVY WASH cycle is selected.

When HI-TEMP WASH option is selected, the light above the pad will come on and remain on until end of cycle. To turn off the HI-TEMP WASH option, press the pad a

second time. The light above the pad will turn off.

Air Dry

The unit defaults to heated dry when it is started with any cycle selected. This drying uses a combination of the heated dry with rinse aid that achieves enhanced drying performance. If you prefer to only have AIR DRY for dishes, you will select AIR DRY and the unit will not energize the heating element. This will reduce energy consumption, but reduce drying perfomance.
