KitchenAid KUDJ01TJ manual Cycle Selection Charts, To check water temperature

To check water temperature

1.Run hot water at the faucet closest to your dishwasher for at least 1 minute.

2.Place a candy or meat thermometer in a glass measuring cup.

3.Check the temperature on the thermometer as the water is running into the cup.

■To save water, energy and time, do not rinse dishes before putting them into the dishwasher.

■Use the Normal cycle whenever possible. This cycle uses less hot water and energy than other cycles.

■Use a delay feature (on some models) to run your dishwasher during off-peak hours. Local utilities recommend avoiding heavy usage of energy at certain times of day.

■During the summer, run your dishwasher at night. This reduces daytime heat buildup in the kitchen.

■Use an air dry, or an energy-saving dry option whenever possible. Allow longer drying times (overnight) when using these options. Use a rinse aid to improve drying.

■Use cycles or options that add extra heat to the wash or rinse portion of the cycle only when needed.

■Run your dishwasher with full loads. Run a rinse cycle after meals until the dishwasher is full.

■If your home is equipped with a water softener, you may want to avoid starting the dishwasher during the regeneration of the softener, as this may contribute to poor wash performance.

Cycle Selection Charts

Select the wash cycle and options desired. Or press START to repeat the same cycle and options as the previous cycle.

NOTE: If the last cycle you completed was a rinse cycle, the dishwasher will run the last full wash cycle and options that you selected when you press Start.

■If the power is off or the door is open for an extended period of time, the Start button memory will default to the Normal cycle with heated drying.

■If you do not run the dishwasher daily, close the door to maintain memory.

A “●” shows what steps are in each cycle.

Temperatures indicate where extra heat is added.

Water usage is shown in U.S. gallons/liters.

This model meets the ENERGY STAR® guidelines for energy efficiency.

Cycle time includes dry time. An asterisk ( * ) by the cycle time indicates the cycle time might be longer depending on the temperature of the water entering the dishwasher. The cooler the water, the longer the cycle time. If the water is already hot enough, the cycle time will be as shown.
