Press the pad for the desired wash cycle.

 

 

 

 

NOTE: All cycle times and water usage information contained in the following section are approximate values only.

 

 

Actual results will depend on several factors, including but not limited to, inlet temperature, household water pressure

 

 

and turbidity of the wash water.

 

 

The light above or next to the selected pad will be ON to indicate which WASH CYCLE has been selected.

This cycle raises the water temperature in the final rinse to sanitize your dishware. The cycle

 

 

 

length will vary depending on the temperature of your inlet water.

 

 

 

NOTE: The Anti-Bacteria cycle is monitored for sanitization requirements. If the cycle is

 

 

 

interrupted during or after the main wash portion or if the incoming water temperature is so

 

 

 

low that adequate water heating cannot be achieved, the sanitizing conditions may not be

 

 

 

met. In these cases, the sanitized light will not illuminate at the end of the cycle.
