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.

NOTES:

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.

In the Normal cycle, the dishwasher pauses while soaking. Soaking helps loosen soils on dishes for brilliant results.
