PROGRAMS

To select a program, simply press the Program button until the indicator light behind the desired program glows. The programs are described below:

Heavy Wash (160° F or 130° F)

For the heaviest soiled loads, such as pots, pans, casseroles, etc.

Normal Wash (130° F or 140° F)

For normally soiled loads, such as plates, glasses, bowls, and lightly soiled pans.

Quick (85° F or 120° F)

For lightly soiled loads that are washed immediately after use. This program is good for delicate items, such as fine china and crystal, but you should set the temperature to low and dry the dishes without heat.

Rinse and hold

To rinse dishes that you plan to wash later that day.

Program Times

“The Normal Wash program is used for the energy label and based upon AHAM standard. When testing with more heavy soil use higher temperature alternative the Heavy Wash program.”

The program times may not always be the same because of variations in the household hot water temperature. The dishwasher heats the water to the proper temperature for the program selected; so if the temperature of the water entering the dishwasher is too low, the dishwasher will run longer because it takes longer to heat the water. Raising your water heater setting could help to shorten the cycle times.

OPTIONS

To select an option, simply press the appropriate option button. The options are described below.

Temperature

The dishwasher has two temperature options for each wash program, as shown above. When this button is set on the high temperature, the main wash is heated to the higher temperature for the selected program. If it is set to low, the main wash is heated to the lower temperature. The indicator light will glow only when the high temperature is selected.

Drying

This option speeds up the drying process by raising the temperature in the final rinse to 160° F to heat the dishes and tank before the drying cycle begins. The indicator light will glow only when this option is activated.

START/STOP BUTTON

Once you have selected the wash program and temperature and drying options, press this button to start the dishwasher. (Make sure the door is securely closed.) The indicator light around the button will glow progressively as the program goes through each cycle. When the program is complete, the lights will glow all the way around the button.
