Cycles

POTS & PANS/ For heavily soiled dishes or cookware with dried-on or baked-on soils. Everyday dishes may be included. HEAVY WASH This cycle will not remove burned-on foods.

NORMAL WASH For loads of everyday dishes, glasses and cookware with medium soils. NOTE: Many dishes have lighter soil than normal. Choosing a cycle other than NORMAL WASH will save energy and water.

SHORT WASH For quickly washing loads of everyday dishes with medium soils that have not dried on, such as loads consisting mostly of glasses.

LIGHT WASH For dishes with light soils.

RINSE ONLY For rinsing partial loads that will be washed later. Do not use detergent.

PLATE WARMER For warming clean dishes and serving plates. This cycle will take approximately 30 minutes.

HOT START Preheats wash water to the correct temperature.
