OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
Delay Start
The DELAY START option allows you to automatically delay
starting your dishwasher from 1-24 hours.
On models with 1-24 hour delay, press the DELAY START
pad until the desired delay time shows in the STATUS
window. A light will come on indicating the delay start hours
and will remain on until cycle starts.
To cancel the DELAY START option and begin the cycle
before the delay period is over, press the START/CANCEL
pad.
The HEATED DRY option in combination with rinse aid will
enhance drying performance. HEATED DRY option is
available on all cycles except ENERGY SAVER & RINSE
ONLY.
You may see water vapor coming from the vent during the
drying portion of cycle. The vent is closed during washing to
hold moisture and sound inside. The vent opens during the
last few minutes of the final rinse and remains open for
drying. The drying option may be changed at any time
during the cycle and affects only the drying period.
Opening the door longer than one minute during the dry
cycle cancels the selected dry program.
When an option is selected, the light above the
pad will come on and remain on until end of cycle.
To turn off the option, press the pad a second
time. The light above the pad will turn off.
Sanitize Option
To sanitize your dishes and glassware, select the
SANITIZE option. When selected, the light above the pad
will come on and remain on until end of cycle. The water
temperature in the final rinse will be raised to 155°F
(68°C) assuring bacteria is destroyed. This option is
available in NORMAL WASH and TOP RACK. SANITIZE is
automatically provided when POWER PLUS is selected.
Only these sanitization cycles have been designed to
meet NSF requirements.
The cycle time will be extended until the proper water
temperature is reached.
Washing action will continue
during the water heating delay. For best results, the
incoming water temperature should be at least 120°F
(49°C).
The sanitize criteria may not be satisfied if there is an
interruption of the cycle, power failure or if the incoming
water temperature is below 120°F (49°C).
To turn off the SANITIZE option, press the pad a second
time. The light above the pad will turn off.
To Cancel a Cycle
You can cancel a cycle anytime during the cycle. Press
START/CANCEL pad and the dishwasher will start a 90
second drain. At the end of the drain, select the desired
cycle.
Child Lock Controls
To prevent children from accidently changing the
dishwasher cycle or starting the dishwasher, lock the
dishwasher controls by pressing and releasing the DELAY
START pad (some models) or the AIR DRY pad (some
models) for 3 seconds. An indicator light on the lock
graphic pad will illuminate when the controls are locked
and no new selections can be made until the lock is
released. To unlock the controls, press the DELAY START
pad or AIR DRY pad until the indicator light goes out.
Sahara Dry
When the SAHARA DRY option is selected, the
dishwasher increases the temperature of the final rinse
and extends drying time by approximately twenty
minutes. The SAHARA DRY option can be used with all
cycles except CHINA CRYSTAL, ENERGY SAVER AND
RINSE ONLY. For best drying performance, select Hi-
Temp Wash and/or sanitize. This will increase the
temperture during the wash cycle to improve drying.
The energy required to use the SAHARA DRY option
costs pennies per cycle. You may choose not to select
the SAHARA DRY option; however you may have items in
your dish load that will not be completely dry at the end
of the cycle.
