Energy Saving Tips.11 - KitchenAid Superba 4KUDS220T Use And Care Manual

Energy Saving Tips
• Use the ENERGY SAVER DRY option whenever possible. If you don't need your dishes right
away, it pays to air dry them.
• Flash dry dishes. Because of the heat buildup in dishware during the wash cycle, they can be
flash dried (a process which causes water to evaporate very quickly). To flash dry your dishware
push CANCEL button shortly after dry light comes on; when dry light goes out, open the door
and pull out the racks. REMEMBER; In hard water areas, flash drying can increase the likelihood
of spotting and filming.
• Turn the temperature setting on your home water heater down to provide a minimum of 120°F
(49°C) incoming water to the dishwasher.
• Run the dishwasher only with a full load.
• Do not rinse dishware before loading.
• Use only the cycle and options that you need.
• Run the dishwasher at night during the summer to avoid daytime heat load.
• Run the dishwasher during off peak (electrical) hours.
