To select a program, simply press the program button until the indicator light for the desired program comes on. The
programs are described below:
Auto Wash
The dishwasher has sensors that detect the level of soil on the dishes and adjust the water
consumption and temperature accordingly. You cannot adjust the temperature or drying time with
this program.
Heavy Wash (160° F or 130° F)
For heavily soiled loads, such as pots, pans, casseroles, etc.
Normal Wash (150° F or 130° F)
For normally soiled loads, such as plates, glasses, bowls, and lightly soiled pans, use the
Normal wash program
To save more water and energy use economy temperature and economy drying.
Delicate Wash (105° F or 120° F)
For delicate items, such as fine china and crystal, that are washed immediately after use. When
using this program, you should set the temperature to low and dry the dishes without heat.
Quick Wash (85° F or 120° F)
For lightly soiled loads that are washed immediately after use. This program can also be used for
delicate items, but you should set the temperature to low and dry the dishes without heat.

Upper or Lower Basket Only
This option lets you choose to wash in either the upper basket, lower basket, or both. The upper
basket indicator light will glow when the upper basket only wash is activated. The lower basket
indicator light will glow when the lower basket only wash is activated. Both upper and lower basket
indicator lights will glow when the top and bottom basket wash is activated.
Temperature
The dishwasher has two temperature options for each wash program, as shown above. When this button is
set on the normal temperature, the main wash is heated to the higher temperature for the selected program.
If it is set to low (economy temperature), the main wash is heated to the lower temperature. The indicator light
will glow only when the normal temperature is selected.
Delayed Start
This button allows you to delay starting the dishwasher for five hours. Press this button then press Start. The
button will glow when Delay Start is selected. To cancel Delay Start, hold down the Start/Stop button for three
seconds.
Drying
The dishwasher has two drying levels Economy and Normal. When you want to have the maximum drying
result you activate the Normal option. That will increase the last rinse temperature to 160°F to heat the dishes
and tank before the drying cycle starts. The indicator light will glow only when this option is activated.
Express
This option reduces the wash time and lowers the wash temperature by 18° or 20° F. Express is not available
with the Quick Wash and Rinse and Hold Programs.
