Cycle Status Indicators

Follow the progress of your dishwasher with the Cycle
Status indicators.
NOTE: The features on your dishwasher may vary from
those shown here.
Clean
Clean glows when a cycle is finished. The light turns off
when you press any button or close the door.
Sanitized
If you select the Sani Rinse option, Sanitized glows when
the Sani Rinse cycle is finished. If your dishwasher did not
properly sanitize your dishes, the light flashes at the end of
the cycle. This can happen if the cycle is interrupted or the
incoming water temperature is too low. The light turns off
when you press any button or close the door.

Active Vent

The active vent reduces the sounds from your dishwasher.
The vent closes, after the cycle starts, to lock in sound.
The active vent opens when wash action ends and vapor
is vented into room. Between cycles, the vent stays open
for airflow, reducing the buildup of odors.
NOTE: There is a slight noise when the cover closes or
opens. This is normal.
IMPORTANT: The vapor is hot. Do not touch the vent
during drying.

Overfill Protection Float

The overfill protection float (in the front right corner of the
dishwasher tub) keeps the dishwasher from overfilling. It
must be in place for the dishwasher to operate.
Check under the float for objects that may keep the
protector from moving up or down.
