Dishwasher Features & Options
Wash Cycles *
* The cycles listed below vary by models.
Power Scrub
Cleans items having baked-on or hard dried food soils.
These items may require soaking or hand scouring.
Auto Wash
Takes the guesswork out of cycle selection. For use with
a mixed load of dishware with varying amounts of food
soil. The sensors in the dishwasher automatically adjust
the cycle length, temperature and water changes based
on the soil load. This cycle contains additional sensor
decisions when compared to other cycles.
Regular Wash
Thoroughly cleans normal loads having loosely attached
normal soiling.
Delicate
For delicate or heirloom dishware and silverware or
other special items. Always make sure that the items are
dishwasher safe. Refer to the Dishware Materials section
of this manual for further information. Hand washing may
be the best treatment for such items.
Quick Wash
Cleans lightly soiled dishes and reduces overall wash time.
Use this cycle to clean glasses and dessert dishes that may
need to be re-used at the same event.
Rinse & Hold
Allows you to rinse the food soil off of a partial load and
hold them in the dishwasher until there is a full load.
Eco Wash
This cycle is optimized to be even more energy efficient.
Eg. On lightly soiled loads it uses much less water and
energy than traditional cycles

When the "Sanitized" light appears on the control panel,
it means that the dishware and kitchenware that were
just washed have been sanitized according to the
requirements of the National Sanitation Foundation
(NSF). For more information on NSF certification, go to
the Wash Cycle Information section of this manual.
NOTE: If your household water supply is very hot, your
dishwasher's heating time may be reduced and the
"Sanitized" light or symbol may not illuminate.

An indicator light will illuminate to alert you when more
rinse agent is required.
