Wash Cycle Selections

Cycle times are approximate and will vary with options
selected and the incoming water temperature. Hot water
is necessary to activate dishwasher detergent and melt
fatty food soils. An automatic sensor will check the
incoming water temperature, and if it is not hot enough,
the timer will be delayed for automatic water heating in
the main wash of all cycles. This happens even when
HI-TEMP WASH option has not been selected. When
HI-TEMP WASH is selected, an even higher temperature
will be guaranteed to handle heavier soil loads.
