Cycle Selection Charts

Select the wash cycle and options desired. Or press START/ RESUME to use the same cycle and options as the previous cycle.

NOTE: If the last cycle you completed was a rinse cycle, the dishwasher will run the last full wash cycle and options that you selected when you press START/RESUME.

A “●” shows the steps that are in each cycle.

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

These models meet the ENERGY STAR® guidelines for energy efficiency.

Cycle time includes dry time. An asterisk ( * ) by the cycle time, Main Wash, and Final Rinse indicates the cycle time might be longer depending on the temperature of the water entering the dishwasher.

IMPORTANT: These sensor-based cycles may take several hours depending on cycle selected, water temperature, soil level, and dish mass sensed.

Smart Wash

Use this cycle for all day-to-day soil types when washing full to partial dish loads. During the cycle, the sensors will determine water temperature, wash time, and water amount based on the soil level and the dish load size. During the main wash, the wash action will repeatedly pause for several seconds.

Use both detergent dispenser sections when washing a full soiled dish load.

Use one detergent dispenser section when washing lightly soiled, partial dish loads.

Normal Wash

Use this cycle for loads with normal amounts of food soil. (The energy-usage label is based on this cycle.) During the wash cycle, the wash action will repeatedly pause for several seconds.

Use both detergent dispenser sections.

†A small amount of water is run through the pump to remove soil particles between the main wash and final rinse.

*If the incoming water temperature is less than the recommended temperature or food soils are heavy, the cycle will automatically compensate by adding time, heat, and water as needed.

**Hard water is defined as 7 grains per U.S. gallon and above.

NOTE: The sensor in your dishwasher monitors the soil level. Cycle time and/or water usage can vary from the numbers above as the sensor adjusts the cycle for the best wash performance.
