SENSING HEATING SANITIZED CLEAN

Sensing

Your dishwasher senses the soil level on the dishes. Soil level

determines the length of some cycles, the amount of heat added to the wash or rinse, and the cycle needed for the load. SENSING

glows during the soil sensing parts of the cycle, Wash action continues while sensing occurs.

Heating

HEATING glows, and the cycle progression pauses, whenever water is heated during a cycle. Wash or rinse action continues as the water heats.

Sanitized

If you select the Sane Rinse option, SANITIZED glows when the Sane Rinse cycle is finished. If your dishwasher did not properly sanitize your dishes, the light flashes at the end of the cycle. This can happen if the cycle is interrupted. The light goes off when you open the door.

Clean

CLEAN glows when a cycle is finished. The light turns off when you open the door or press Cancel/Drain.

Active Vent

The Active Vent reduces the sounds from your dishwasher. The cover closes after the cycle starts. Filling and washing sounds are reduced. The Active Vent opens when wash action ends and vapor is vented into room.

NOTE: There is a slight noise when the cover closes or opens. This is normal.

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