†A small amount of water is run through the pump to remove soil particles between the main wash and final rinse.
*If the incoming water temperature is less than the recommended temperature or food soils are heavy, the cycle will automatically compensate by adding time, heat, and water as needed.
**Hard water is defined as 7 grains per U.S. gallon and above.
NOTE: The sensor in your dishwasher monitors the soil level. Cycle time and/or water usage can vary from the numbers above as the sensor adjusts the cycle for the best wash performance.
