Information—Read Before
Operating Your Dishwasher!
Normal Operating
Sounds
This dishwasher does not sound like most
dishwashers—IT'S QUIETER.
The new Precision Wash System™ uses
energy efficient motors for the wash and
drain portions of the cycle you select. Each
cycle has a series of water fills and drains
for washing and rinsing dishes. As each
cycle begins, you may–or may not–hear the
drain motor.
The next sound you will hear is the
splashing water as it enters the tub. Then the
lower arm rotates and circulates water. This
is followed by a pause and a slightly different
sound as the middle arm sprays water. If you
listen closely, you will hear the change in
sound as the wash action switches from one
arm to the other.
PLEASE BE ADVISED: If you compare
this dishwasher to previous models, you
may be surprised at what you DON'T
hear!

Wash Cycle Selections
Note: Cycle times are approximate and will
vary with options selected. Hot water is
necessary to activate dishwasher detergent
and melt fatty food soils. An automatic sensor
will check the incoming water temperature and,
if it is not hot enough, the timer will be delayed
for automatic water heating in the main wash
of all cycles. This happens even when HI-
TEMP WASH ON option has not been
selected. When HI-TEMP WASH ON is
selected, an even higher temperature will be
guaranteed to handle heavier soil loads.
Pots & Pans
(81 minutes) (2 washes, 4 rinses, dry)
(7.2 gallons) (6.0 imp. gallons) (27.3 liters)
For pots, pans, casseroles and dinnerware
with dried-on or baked-on soils:
• Turn dial to POTS & PANS/HEAVY WASH.
• Select HI-TEMP WASH ON option.
• Select other desired OPTIONS.
