pots, pans, bowls, etc., according to the Loading section.

Make sure the Cycle Indicator Dial is at OFF position
before adding detergent. (See Detergent Guide.)

container is at least half full. (See How to Use
a Rinse Agent section. )

the WASH HEAT BOOST. To obtain WASH HEAT
BOOST without HEATED DRY, select only the WASH
HEAT BOOST option. (See Energy-Saving Tips.)
STEP 4. WASH HEAT BOOST

Temperature section.
The entering water must be
between 120°F. and 140°F.
Use the wash heat boost
option when water is less than 140°F.
When selected, the wash cycle will be extended for21
minutes while the dishwasher heats the water for good
washing and drying.
STEP 5. Select the wash cycle and start the dishwasher.

operate the disposer until it is empty before starting the
dishwasher.
