1Status Indicator Lights (Indicators vary by model)

The Status display tells you what is happening while the dishwasher is in operation and may flash, indicating a malfunction. The lights will come ON, indicating the sequence of the dishwasher operation.

SENSING Displayed while the Clean Sensor™ is measuring the amount of soil and temperature of water. The dishwasher will adjust the selected cycle to achieve optimal performance.

ADD-A-DISHDisplayed during prewash indicating that dishes added now will still be cleaned.

WASHING Displayed during prewash, main wash and rinse periods.

DRYING Displayed during HEATED DRY.

SANITIZED Displayed when cycle has met sanitization conditions.

CLEAN Displayed when a wash cycle is complete.

2Time Remaining Display (on some models)

During operation, the display shows the minutes remaining until the cycle is complete. The display may adjust the remaining time while the Sensing light is on. The time displayed at the start of each cycle may change from the factory setting as the unit customizes itself to home use. During a delay start, the display will show hours of time remaining until the cycle starts.

PDW9200 Series and PDW9800 Series: Use the Arrow Pads to scroll through the wash cycles.

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.

ANTI-BACTERIA Heavy 7.8 gal., 105 min., Medium 6.7 gal., 95 min., Light 5.6 gal., 85 min.

	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
4	be met. In these cases, the sanitized light will not illuminate at the end of the cycle.
	NOTE: NSF-certified residential dishwashers are not intended for licensed food establishments.
