Canceling a Cycle

NOTE: If your dishwasher does not need draining, the dishwasher stops and clears all indicators.

You can press CANCEL/DRAIN again to stop the drain immediately. Be sure to drain the dishwasher before starting a new cycle.

Option Selections

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

You can change an option anytime before the selected option begins. For example, you can turn off the drying option anytime before drying begins.

After a wash cycle, the dishwasher remembers the options used. It uses the same options in the next wash cycle, if you press only

START/RESUME.

Hi-Temp Wash

Select this option to increase the target water temperature during the wash portions of the cycle. Hi-Temp Wash raises the target water temperature to 145ºF (63ºC) in the main wash. Heating the water helps improve washing results. Hi-Temp Wash is useful when loads contain baked-on food.

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

NOTE: Hi-Temp Wash is an option with Pots & Pans and Normal cycles.

Heated Dry

Select this option to dry dishes with heat.

Switching off Heated Dry skips the dry period. This is useful when loads contain plastic dinnerware that may be sensitive to high temperatures. The dishes take longer to dry, and some spotting may occur. Some items (such as plastics) may need towel drying.

For best drying, use a liquid rinse aid.

NOTE: Heated Dry is an option with all cycles, except the Rinse Only cycle. Heated Dry begins automatically with all cycles unless you switch it off.

Lock

Use the lock to avoid unintended use of the dishwasher. You can also use the lock feature to avoid unintended cycle or option changes during a cycle.

When the lock is lit, all buttons are disabled.

NOTES:

The dishwasher door can be opened while the controls are locked.

You can turn on the lock while the dishwasher is running. If you open the door, unlock the controls and press START/ RESUME to restart. You can lock controls again, if desired.

To turn on the lock

Press and hold HEATED DRY for 4 seconds. The lock glows.

If you press any pad while your dishwasher is locked, the light flashes 3 times and the selection is ignored.

To turn off the lock

Press and hold HEATED DRY for 4 seconds. The light turns off.
