The power consumption of your dishwasher can be minimized if you follow these suggestions:

Operate the dishwasher only when it’s full. Let the dishes accumulate in the dishwasher. When you put in only a partial load, use the RINSE & HOLD Cycle to rinse off heavy soils. Be sure to latch the door when waiting for a full load. This helps to keep soils moist, easier to remove.

Always select the cycle that uses the least amount of water that will remove the soil from the load. See page 11.
