Dishwasher Cycles and Options
Wash Cycles (model dependent)
NOTE: In order to save energy, itis recommended to set the “Auto Power Off” feature to “P:01” (see manual section
titled “Auto Power Off”).
Heavy Wash:
Best for cleaning items with baked-on food or grease. These dishes would normally require soaking.
Auto Wash:
With our most complex soil sensing capability, this cycle is perfect for use with mixed loads of dish-
ware and varying amounts of food soil. This is the most flexible cycle and is a good choice for everyday use.
Normal:
The Normal cycle is recommended for daily, regular, or typical use to completely wash a full load of
normally soiled dishes.
In order to obtain optimal performance with minimum energy consumption, it is recommended to dis-
able all available features as noted at the start of this section.
NOTE 1: See footnote for additional energy test setup instructions.
Delicate Wash:
For delicate or heirloom dishware and silverware or other special items. Always make sure that
the items are dishwasher safe. Refer to the Dishware Materials section on page 6 of this manual for further infor-
mation. Hand washing may be the best treatment for “Not Recommended” items.
Express Wash:
Cleans lightly soiled dishes and reduces overall wash time. Use this cycle to clean glasses and
dessert dishware that may need to be reused at the same event.
Half Load:
Can reduce the energy and water consumption when washing small, lightly soiled loads that fill
approximately half of the dishwasher’s capacity.
Rinse & Hold:
Allows you to rinse food soil off of a partial load and hold them in the dishwasher until you are
ready to run a full load.
Wash Cycle Options
Delay Start:
Allows you to delay the start time of your dishwasher by 3, 6, or 9 hours.
Sanitize:
The Sanitize feature is available only in the Heavy, Auto, Normal and Half Load cycles. Select one of these
cycles, press the “Sanitize Option” button and then press Start to activate the Sanitation features. The sanitize LED
will light when sanitation requirements are met. The technical sanitation measures may also improve the drying
results.
NOTE: The dishwasher automatically defaults to Auto Wash when turned off and back on. If you used the sanitize option in
your last cycle, the dishwasher will default to Auto Wash with the Sanitize option selected when you turn it on.
NOTE 1: The Energy Guide label was based on the Normal or Regular soil sensing cycle as follows: The unit was tested without any
Rinse Aid (liquid) in the Rinse Aid chamber. A single dose of detergent was inserted into the Detergent Dispenser, with no detergent
being used in the prewash. The unit was not subjected to truncated testing per the definitions in the test procedure. We recommend that
dish loads such as the one in the energy certification test have the rack position set in the highest position.
