CYCLE RUNS TOO LONG NOTES:

•To use less water and reduce energy consumption you will encounter cycles that typically run for up to 3 hours.

•A water heater setting of 120°F (49°C) is best, the dishwasher will delay longer while heating cooler water.

•Some options will add time to the cycle. (See "Cycles and Options Information" section.) The Heated Dry option adds 1/2hour.

Try the 1 Hour Wash cycle.

Run the hot water at a faucet close to the dishwasher before starting the cycle.

DISHWASHER NOT		NOTE:		Plastic		and items with nonstick			surfaces are difficult	to dry because they have a
DRYING		porous		surface		which tends to collect			water droplets. Towel	drying may be necessary.
		Use of rinse aid along with the Heated Dry option is needed for proper drying.
		Proper loading of items can affect drying. (See specific loading instructions within this
		guide.)
		Glasses and cups with concave bottoms hold water. This water may spill onto other
		items when			unloading.
		•	Unload		the	bottom rack first.
		•	Load these			items on the more		slanted side of the rack for improved results.
WILL NOT	FILL	Be sure the water					is turned on to the dishwasher.
		Check that the float is free from obstructions. (See "Parts and Features.")
		Check for suds in the dishwasher. If foam or suds are detected, the dishwasher may not
		operate properly or may not fill with water. (See "BLINKING LIGHTS" in
