Close the dishwasher door and select the cycle and desired enhancements. Touch the START/RESET pad to begin the cycle. Water fill begins, and approximately 60 seconds later the wash action begins.

If the door is closed the indicator lights will turn off if the START/RESET pad is not selected within two minutes. To activate the display, open and close the door or press any pad.
