(on some models)
You can change a cycle setting anytime
during any cycle.

2. Turn the Cycle Control Knob clockwise to
the desired cycle.
3. Check the detergent dispensers. They
must be filled properly for the new cycle.
NOTE: Turning the Cycle Control Knob
can cause the covered section of the
detergent dispenser to open and release
the detergent. Check the covered
section if setting Normal Wash or Pots &
Pans cycle.
4. Close the door firmly until it latches. The
dishwasher starts the new cycle.

Adding an item during a cycle

(on some models)
You can add an item to the dishwasher
anytime before the Cycle Control Knob
reaches Light Wash. Items added after the
Cycle Control Knob reaches Light Wash will
only be rinsed.
1. Lift up the door latch to stop the cycle.
Wait for spraying action to stop before
opening the door.
2. Open the door and add the item.
3. Close the door, but do not latch it. Wait
30 seconds for the air in the dishwasher
to warm up. Doing so reduces the amount
of moisture in the vent when restarting
a cycle.
4. Close the door firmly until it latches. The
dishwasher resumes the cycle.
