Heat Dry
OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
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.
The drying option may be changed at any time during the
cycle and affects only the drying period.
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.
Sahara Dry
TM
When the SAHARA DRY
TM
option is selected, the
dishwasher increases the temperature of the final rinse
and extends drying time by approximately twenty
minutes. The SAHARA DRY
TM
option can be used with all
cycles except 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
TM
option
costs pennies per cycle. You may choose not to select
the SAHARA DRY
TM
option; however you may have items
in your dish load that will not be completely dry at the
end of the cycle.
The FAVORITE CYCLE option allows you to program your
preferred cycle and options into one button. Once
Programmed, simply press the FAVORITE CYCLE button
followed by the START/CANCEL pad.
To Program the FAVORITE CYCLE button:
1) Select your preferred cycle and options
2) Hold the FAVORITE CYCLE button for 3 seconds.
The display will flash for 2 seconds indicating the
FAVORITE CYCLE option has been programmed. To
change the FAVORITE CYCLE option simple repeat steps

Air Dry
Delay Start
The DELAY START option allows you to automatically delay
starting your dishwasher from 1-24 hours.
To activate press the DELAY START pad until the desired
delay time shows in the STATUS window. The word “delay”
will show in the status window next to the remaining delay
time until the cycle starts.
To cancel the DELAY START option and begin the cycle
before the delay period is over, press the START/CANCEL
pad.
The AIR DRY option is used to de-activate the heating
element during the drying phase of the selected wash cycle.
This option will slightly decrease energy usage but will
increase the likelihood that dishware will not be dry.
NOTE
Why Energy Efficient Units run long cycles: Several factors are important to washing dishware. The energy use of your
dishwasher was reduced by applying more of the factors that don’t use so much energy adn less of the ones that use more.
As a result, you will see that the wash cycles take longer.
