Adding Items During a Cycle

You can add an item anytime that the Add a Dish indicator glows. Open the door and check the detergent dispenser. If the cover is still closed, you can add items.

To add items

1.Lift up the door latch to stop the cycle. Wait for the spraying action to stop before opening the door.

2.Open the door. Add the item.

3.Close the door firmly until it latches. The dishwasher resumes the cycle after about a 5-second pause.

Option Selections

You can customize your cycles by pressing an option. If you change your mind, press the option again to turn the option off. Select a different option if desired.

You can change an option anytime before the selected option begins. For example, you can press an unheated drying option any time before drying begins.

Press the Start pad to repeat the same cycle and options as the previous wash cycle.

NOTE: If the last cycle you completed was a rinse cycle, when you press the Start pad, the dishwasher runs the last full wash cycle and options.

Hi-Temp Scrub

Select this option to heat the water during parts of the cycle, and add a rinse. Higher water temperatures and an extra rinse helps clean tough soils. Hi-Temp Scrub, with the Baked On Cookware cycle, raises the water temperature in the prewash and main wash. Hi-Temp Scrub, with the Normal cycle, raises the water temperature in the main wash.

This option adds heat, water and wash time to a cycle.

NOTE: Hi-Temp Scrub is an option with the Baked On Cookware and Normal cycles. Always use Hi-Temp Scrub if you have hard water.

SANI RINSE™ Option

Select this option to raise the water temperature in the final rinse to approximately 160°F (70°C). The SANI RINSE™ Option adds heat and time to the cycle. This high temperature rinse sanitizes your dishes and glassware in accordance with NSF/ANSI Standard 184 for Residential Dishwashers. Certified residential dishwashers are not intended for licensed food establishments.

NOTE: The Baked On Cookware cycle automatically uses this option. SANI RINSE™ is an option with the Normal cycle. Only these sanitization cycles have been designed to meet the NSF/ ANSI requirements.

ENERGY SAVER™ Dry System

Select this option to dry dishes without heat. ENERGY SAVER™ Dry System is useful if you do dishes at night and unload in the morning.

The dishes take longer to dry, and some spotting can occur. For best drying, always use a liquid rinse aid. Some items (such as plastics) may need towel drying.

NOTE: Rinse Only automatically uses this option. ENERGY SAVER™ Dry System is an option with all other cycles.
