Wash full loads. Running a half-filled dishwasher uses the same amount of electricity and hot water as a fully loaded machine.

Load correctly for best washing results. Incorrect loading may cause poor washing You will then need to rewash all or part of load.

Do not prerinse normally soiled dishes. Select the correct cycle for the load and use the recommended amount of detergent.

Cycle and option tips

l Use the Low Energy/China cycle whenever possible. The cycle uses less hot water and energy than the Normal Cycle.

lUse 4 Hour Delay Start to run your dish- washer during off-peak hours. The local utilities recommend that you avoid using too much energy at certain times of the day.

l Do not use the High Temp Wash option if it is not needed. When this option is off, if water entering the dishwasher is lower than 140°F (607, the cycle does not take additional time to heat water during the main wash.

NOTE: Loads may not wash or dry as well if the water temperature is too low. For best dishwashing results, water must be at least 120°F (49°C) as it enters the dishwasher.

To check water temperature:

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

2.Hold a candy or meat thermometer in

the running stream of water. If water temperature at the faucet is below 120°F (49”(Z), have a qualified person raise the water heater’s thermostat setting.

lUse the Air Dry option whenever

possible. Allow longer drying times (over- night). Use a rinse agent to

improve drying.
