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.

Options Selections

Hi-Temp Wash

When HI-TEMP WASH option is selected, the dishwasher heats water in main wash to approximately 140°F (60°C). Wash action will continue but timer will not advance until proper temperature is reached. 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.

When HI-TEMP WASH option is selected, the

light above the pad will come on and remain on until end of cycle. To turn off the HI-TEMP WASH option, press the pad a second time. The light above the pad will turn off.

Hi-Temp Rinse

A HI-TEMP RINSE of approximately 145°F (63°C) will automatically be provided in the final rinse if HI-TEMP WASH option has been selected. This higher temperature helps speed drying and reduce spotting.

No Heat Dry

NO HEAT DRY option saves electricity since the heating element is off during drying portion of cycle. When selected, the light above the pad will come on and remain on until end of cycle. To speed the drying process, open the door slightly after the cycle is complete. Some water droplets may remain on door and tub and in areas where dishes touch silverware basket and rack.

To select heated dry, press the pad a second time. The light above the pad will turn off. Heated dry provides faster drying since the heating element is on during the drying portion of the cycle. With either option, a fan circulates the air inside the dishwasher to speed drying.

You may see water vapor coming from vent during drying portion of cycle. The vent is closed during washing to hold moisture and sound inside and then opens 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 delay starting your dishwasher for 4 hours. Press the DELAY START pad and the light above the pad will come on and 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.

Note: To start the dishwasher using the same cycle and options selected on the previous wash, just press START/CANCEL pad.
