Wash Cycles

Wash Cycle Selections

Cycle times are approximate and will vary with
the options selected. Hot water is neces-
sary to activate the detergent and melt fatty
food soils. An automatic sensor will check the
incoming water temperature. If it is not at the
appropriate temperature the timer will delay
the cycle to allow automatic water heating
during the main wash. When the High Temp
wash is selected an even higher temperature
will be assured to handle heavier soil loads.
Wash Cycles
Heavy Wash
Recommended for pots, pans, casseroles and
dinnerware having light to heavily soiled loads.
Normal Wash
Recommended for lightly to heavily soiled
loads.
1 Hour Wash
A shorter wash recommended for lightly soiled
loads that do not need drying.
China Crystal
Recommended for lightly soiled China and
Crystal.
Energy Saver
Recommended for lightly soiled and pre-rinsed
dishes and silverware.
Rinse Only
Recommended for pre-rinsing dishes or
glasses. This is only a rinse that keeps food
from drying on your dishes and reduces odor
buildup in your dishwasher until you are ready
to wash a full load. Do not use detergent.
