Hi-Temp Wash
When
This increase in water temperature helps dishwasher detergent remove food grease and soil from dishes more effectively and aids in drying. HI- TEMP WASH option can be used with all cycles except GLASSES, UPPER RACK, and RINSE ONLY.
When
Sanitize Option
To sanitize your dishes and glassware, select the SANITIZE option. When selected, the light above the pad will come on and remain on until end of cycle. The water temperature in the final rinse will be raised to 155°F (68°C) and will maintain that temperature for 9 minutes. This option is available in POTS & PANS, NORMAL and ECONO WASH cycles. Only these sanitization cycles have been designed to meet NSF requirements.
The cycle time will be extended until the proper water temperature is reached. Washing action will continue during the water heating delay. For best results, the incoming water temperature should be at least 120°F (49°C).
The sanitize criteria may not be satisfied if there is an interruption of the cycle, power failure or if the incoming water temperature is below 120°F (49°C).
To turn off the SANITIZE option, press the pad a second time. The light above the pad will turn off.
Heat Dry
The HEAT DRY option in combination with rinse aid will enhance drying performance. The energy required to use the HEAT DRY option costs pennies per cycle. You may choose not to select the HEAT DRY option; however you will have items in your dish load that will not be completely dry at the end of the cycle.
(continued)
You may see water vapor coming from the vent during the drying portion of cycle. The vent is closed during washing to hold moisture and sound inside. The vent opens during the last few minutes of the final rinse and remains open for drying. The drying option may be changed at any time during the cycle and affects only the drying period.
Opening the door longer than one minute during the dry cycle cancels the selected dry program.
Delay Start
The DELAY START option allows you to automatically delay starting your dishwasher from
On models with
indicating the delay start hours and will remain on until cycle starts.
To cancel the DELAY START option and begin the cycle before the delay period is over, press the
START/CANCEL pad.
To Cancel a Cycle
You can cancel a cycle anytime during the cycle. Press START/CANCEL pad and the dishwasher will start a 90 second drain. At the end of the drain, select the desired cycle.
Status Indicator Lights
The WASHING light (some models) comes on at the beginning of cycle and remains on until the end of the main wash.
The DRYING light (some models) indicates the drying portion of the cycle. The light will come on when either drying option is selected.
When the SANITIZE option is selected, the SANITIZED light will glow when the SANITIZE cycle is finished. If the dishwasher did not properly sanitize the dishes, the light will not come on. This can happen if the cycle is interrupted. The light will remain on until the door is opened.
The CLEAN light (some models) will come on at end of cycle and remain on until door is opened.
