Operating Instructions
Options Selections
Hi-Temp Wash
When HI-TEMP WASH option is selected, the
dishwasher heats the water in the main wash
to approximately 140°F (60°C). Wash action
will continue but the timer will not advance
until the proper temperature is reached. This
increase in water temperature helps
dishwasher detergent remove food grease and
soil from dishes more effectively and aids in
drying. HI-TEMP WASH option can be used
with all cycles except CHINA/CRYSTAL and
RINSE HOLD
When HI-TEMP WASH is selected, the light
above the pad will come on and remain on
until end of cycle. To turn off the HI-TEMP
WASH option, press the pad a second time,
The light above the pad will turn off.
Hi-Temp Rinse
A HI-TEMP RINSE of approximately 145°F
(63°C) will automatically be provided in the
final rinse on POTS PANS, HEAVY WASH,
NORMAL WASH and SHORT WASH (BOTH
RACKS), if HI-TEMP WASH option has been
selected. This higher temperature helps speed
drying and reduce spotting.
No Heat Dry
NO HEAT DRY option saves electricity since
the heating element is off during drying portion
of cycle. When selected, the light above the
pad will come on and remain on until end of
cycle. To speed the drying process, open the
door slightly after the cycle is complete. Some
water droplets may remain on door and tub
and in areas where dishes touch silverware
basket and rack.
To select heated dry, press the pad a second
time. The light above the pad will turn off.
Heated dry provides faster drying since the
heating element is on during the drying portion
of the cycle. With either option, a fan circulates
the air inside the dishwasher to speed drying.
(continued)
You may see water vapor coming from the vent
during the dying portion of the cycle. The vent
is closed during washing to hold moisture and
sound inside and then opens for drying. The
drying option may be changed at any time
during the cycle and affects only the drying
period.
Opening the door longer than one minute
during the dry cycle cancels the selected dry
program.
Delay Start
The DELAY START option allows you to delay
starting your dishwasher up to 9 hours.
Press the DELAY START pad until the desired
delay time shows in the STATUS window.
To cancel the DELAY START option and begin
the cycle before the delay period is over, press
the START/CANCEL pad.

same cycle and options selected on the
previous wash, just press the START/
CANCEL pad.
