detergent dispenser section to open and release the
detergent. Check the covered section if the cycle uses
detergent in both sections.

new cycle.

in the dishwasher to warm up. This reduces the amount of
moisture escaping from the vent when restarting a cycle.

the cycle.

begins. For example, you can press an unheated drying option

Hot Chaud dry
Water
Usage
Select this option to dry dishes with heated air.
(gal/L)
NOTE: Hot Chaud dry should not be used with the rinse cycle.
2.9/10.9
Food may bake on dishes if Hot Chaud dry is used with a rinse.
Econo dry
Select this energy-saving option to dry without heat. Air drying is
useful when loads contain plastic dinnerware that may be
sensitive to high temperatures.
The dishes take longer to dry and some spotting can occur. For
best drying, use a liquid rinse aid. Some items (such as plastics)
may need towel drying.
NOTE: The dishwasher automatically heats the air in the
dishwasher during the "dry" portion of the cycle unless you
select Econo dry. Use this option when you do not plan to unload
the dishwasher for several hours. Select this option with the rinse
cycle to prevent food from baking on dishes.
End of Cycle
The cycle control knob points to the oval mark next to the Off/
Arrêt symbol at the end of a cycle.
