NOTE
Your dishwasher uses a DishSense
on the dishes and then adjusts the cycle accordingly.
CAUTION
Property Damage Hazard
Before starting dishwasher be sure that
the water is connected and turned on.
Failure to do so may cause damage
to the pump seal and result in water
leakage.
Wash Cycle Selections
Cycle times are approximate and will
vary with options selected. 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 cycle will be lengthened for
automatic water heating in the main wash
and final rinse of all cycles. This happens
even when HI-TEMP WASH option has
not be selected. When HI-TEMP WASH is
selected, an even higher temperature will
be reached to handle heavier soil loads.
Recommended Cycle for typical use:
The Normal cycle with its factory default
options of normal temperature and
heated dry together provide the best all
around performance. This cycle selection
is recommended for everyday use and is
suitable for a large range of both dish load
sizes and food quantities remaining on
those dishes.
Option Selections
Wash Pressure
The programmed cycles default to the
"surge" pressure option which varies the
pressure optimally for the cycle's intended
normal use. If a very low "spray" is desired,
press the WASH PRESSURE pad. Due to
wash cycle optimization, some pressure
options are not selectable in all wash cycle.

Wash Temp
The programmed cycles default to the
"normal" temperature option, to choose
HI-TEMP or SANITIZE press WASH TEMP
pad again.
Hi-Temp Wash Option
HI-TEMP WASH option is selected, by
pressing the WASH TEMP pad. The
dishwasher heats water in the main wash
to approximately 140°F (60°C) and
increases the temperature higher in the
final rinse to help with the drying stage.
This helps dishwasher detergent remove
food grease and soil from dishes more
effectively and aids in drying performance
by adding additional rinse aid and
increasing the water temperature.
Sanitize Option
To sanitize your dishes and glassware,
select SANITIZE option, by pressing
WASH TEMP pad. When selected, the
light will come on and remain on until
end of cycle. The water temperature
in the final rinse will be raised to 155°F
(68°C) and will maintain that temperature
for 9 minutes. This option is available in
Heavy and Normal Cycles. Only these
sanitization cycles have been designed to
meet NSF requirements.
The cycle time will be extended until the
proper water temperature is reached.
Washing action will continue during the
water heating delay. For best results, the
incoming water temperature should be at
least 120°F (49°C).
The sanitize criteria may not be satisfied
if there is an interruption of the cycle,
power failure or if the incoming water
temperature is below 120°F (49°C).
To turn off the SANITIZE option, press the
Wash Temp pad. The SANITIZE light will
turn off.
