OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

The DishSenseTM Technology checks the soil level on your dishes in the Heavy Wash, Normal Wash and Top Rack cycles. Depending on soil level, the sensor will determine if additional water fills are needed to clean the dishes or if water fills can be deleted. Cycle time and water usage will vary based on the amount of soil on the dishes. Cycle time will also vary based on the options selected and the incoming water temperature.

Child Lock Controls

To prevent children from accidently changing the dishwasher cycle or starting the dishwasher, lock the dishwasher controls by pressing and releasing the AIR DRY pad for 8 seconds while the door is latched. An indicator light on the lock graphic pad will illuminate when the controls are locked and no new selections can be made until the lock is released. To unlock the controls, press the same pad AIR DRY, until the indicator light goes out.

* Includes dry time

NOTE

The time remaining could suddenly increase or drop several minutes. This means the Smart Sensor has checked the soil level and has determined that additional

water fills are needed or that water fills can be deleted.
