What happens in each option
Water heating
The dishwasher will heat water during portions of
the Pots & Pans, Normal and Light Wash Cycles to
improve washability
(see pages 6 and 7). The
Cycle Control Knob does not move while the water
is heating. The heating time is based on the tem-
perature of the water supply as it enters the dish-
washer. The cooler the water, the longer the
heating time. When the water temperature
reaches 140°F (6o"C), the Cycle Control Knob will
begin moving again. If the water supply is already
hot enough, the dishwasher will not pause.
ho-Energy
Option
The dishwasher will not heat the wash water as
described above when the Lo-Energy Option is
selected. This will reduce the amount of electricity
needed to run the dishwasher, but loads may
not wash as well if the water supply temperature
is too low.
Air Dry Option
Air in the dishwasher is automatically
heated
during the "dry" part of all cycles except Rinse
& Hold.
If the Air Dry Option is selected, air in the dish-
washer is not heated. Using this option helps save
energy, but dishes take longer to dry (overnight)
and some spotting may result. Some items (such
as plastics) may need towel drying.
For best drying results, use a liquid rinse agent
such as Jet-Dry.E
