The Normal wash setting is best for normal soil on dishes and silverware. It takes about 78 to 96 minutes to run.

When the Hi-Tempfeature is selected, the water is heated to about 140°F (60°C) during the wash portion of the cycle. Washing at a higher temperature helps the detergent dis- solve grease and grime better and the dishes dry more efficiently. It can be selected with any wash cycle, but not Rinse.

The Sanitize feature rinses the dishware with rinse water heated to a temperature of 155°F (68°C) for maximum sanitization and drying (see page xx). It can be selected with any wash cycle, but not Rinse.

The Delay start feature allows you to set the dishwasher to start at a later time (see page XX).
