Soak & Scour
Select this option to pre-soak your dishes for 4 hours in your
dishwasher instead of pre-soaking them in the sink. When you
select Soak & Scour, the dishwasher fills and then sprays for 8
minutes. It will then pause for 16 minutes while dishes soak, and
then spray for 90 seconds to keep dishes wet. Pausing for 16
minutes and spraying for 90 seconds are repeated for 4 hours. At
the end of the 4 hours, the dishwasher drains and then starts the
cycle you have selected. This pre-soaking uses only one
additional fill of water and does not require special detergent.
Use standard detergent per cycle recommendations.
If your dishwasher has a dual-digit display, it will show the hours
remaining in the soaking period beforethe cycle starts, beginning
with
showing 4 hours remaining.
NOTE: Soak & Scour is an option for the Anti-Bacterial (available
on some models) or Pots & Pans cycles. If Hi-Temp Scour is also
selected, only the Soak & Scour option is actually used.
Hi-Ternp Scour
Select this option to increase the target water temperature during
the wash portions of the cycle. Hi-Temp Scour raises the target
water temperature to 145°F (63°C) in the main wash. In the Anti-
Bacterial and Pots & Pans cycles, Hi-Temp Scour also raises the
target water temperature to 135°F (57°0) in the pre-wash.
Heating the water helps improve washing results. Hi-Temp Scour
is useful when loads contain baked-on food.
This option adds heat and wash time to the cycle. When Hi-Temp
Scour is used with the Anti-Bacterial and Pots & Pans cycles,
water is also added to the cycle in an additional rinse.

SANI RINSE
TM
Option
Select this option to raise the water temperature in the final rinse
to approximately 160°F (70°C) for 10 minutes. The SANI RINSE
option adds heat and time to the cycle. In the Pots & Pans,
Normal, and Anti-Bacterial cycles, this high-temperature rinse
sanitizes your dishes and glassware in accordance with NSF
Standard 184 for Residential Dishwashers. Certified residential
dishwashers are not intended for licensed food establishments.
NOTE: The Anti-Bacterial cycle automatically uses this option.
Use the SANI RINSE option with Pots & Pans and Normal cycles.
Only these sanitization cycles have been designed to meet the
NSF requirements.
Air Dry
Select this energy-saving option to dry without heat. Air drying is
useful when loads contain plastic dinnerware that may be
sensitive to high temperatures.
O
The dishes take longer to dry and some spotting can occur. For
best drying, use a liquid rinse aid. Some items (such as plastics)
may need towel drying.
NOTE: Air Dry is an option with all cycles, except Rinse Only.
