Options
HI-Temp
Wash
Option
When
HI-TEMP
WASH
ON option is selected,
the
dishwasher
heats the water in the main wash to
approximately
140°F (60°C). Wash action will
continue
but timer wilt not advance
until proper
temperature
is reached.
The hotter water provided
by this option helps activate
dishwasher
detergent
to clean food grease
and soil from dishes.
HI-
TEMP WASH ON option can be used with any
cycle except
RINSE HOLD and is not
recommended
for use with CHINA.
To turn off option, select HI-TEMP
WASH OFF.
Heat
Dry Option
HEAT DRY ON option provides
faster drying since
the heating
element
is on during the drying portion
of cycle.
The HEAT DRY option in combination
with rinse aid
will give you excellent
drying results.
The energy
to
use HEAT DRY costs pennies
per cycle.
You may
turn off the H EAT DRY option, however you will have
items in your dish load that will not be dry at the end
of the cycle.
With either option, you may see water vapor
coming from vent during the washing
and/or drying
portion
of cycle. On some models,
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.
Dish
Preparation
It is not necessary
to rinse dishes before
putting
them into the dishwasher.
Just remove
large
pieces and quantities
of food, bones, pits, etc.
Empty glasses
and cups. It may be necessary
to
presoak
or lightly scour firmly cooked-on
or
baked-on
foods.
Foods such as mustard,
mayonnaise,
vinegar,
lemon juice and tomato-based
products
may
cause discoloration
of stainless
steel and plastics
if allowed
to sit for a long period of time. Unless
the dishwasher
is to be operated
at once, it is best
to rinse off these food soils.
Load dishes facing the center of the rack so
that the water spray from the rotating
spray
arm can reach
soiled surfaces.
Be sure large items do not block the detergent
dispenser,
preventing
it from opening
during
the wash cycle.
To be sure an item is dishwasher
safe, read
the manufacturer's
care instructions.
If the dishwasher
drains into a food disposer,
be sure disposer
is completely
empty
before
dishwasher
is started.
To save energy,
wash full loads.
For best washing
results,
load correctly
and
avoid overloading.
