Monogram.
STEP 1. Load your dishwasher. See Loading section.
STEP 2. Add detergent to the detergent dispenser. (See
Detergent Guide.) For best results use your rinse agent
at all times. Not only will it help prevent spotting and
provide optimum drying results, but your rinse agent
rinses the tub and inner door of your dishwasher which
will give it a polished look. See the Rinse Agent section.
STEP 3. The wash arms must be free to move and
should not be blocked by an item extending into them.
STEP 4. Latch door.
STEP 5. Push the Cycle Selector dial so that it is
extended. Turn the dial to the cycle you desire by lining
up the green line on the dial with the Cycle Indicator on
the control panel. The dial may be pushed in for flush
appearance.
• POTS & PANS—For items such as pots, pans and
casseroles with dried-on or baked-on soils. Everyday
dishes may be included. Burned-on food and food
burned black should be presoaked and scoured. The
dishwasher cannot remove burned-on food.
• NORMAL WASH—For loads of everyday dishes,
glasses and cookware with medium soils. Designed
to yield high performance on normal soils.
• RINSE & DRY—Rinses and dries dusty dishes that
are already washed. Don’t use detergent.
• RINSE & HOLD—For rinsing partial loads which
will be washed later. Do not use detergent.
STEP 6. To start the dishwasher, press the ON/OFF
button. To stop the dishwasher, press the ON/OFF
button.
STEP 7. The dishwasher cycle is complete when the
dial stops before the next cycle. Clean the filter.

To Interrupt a Cycle Drying
To interrupt a cycle, press the ON/OFF button to stop the
operation. If you’re interrupting the cycle during a wash
or rinse cycle wait until the water noises stop before
opening the door. The cycle may be resumed by closing
the door and turning the machine back on. As a safety
feature the dishwasher will automatically turn itself
off whenever the door is opened. However, if the door
is opened quickly while in a wash or rinse cycle some
water may splash out of the dishwasher. For this reason it
is recommended that the machine always be switched to
off before opening the door. If you have used the
ON/OFF button to interrupt the cycle, remember to
turn the machine back on by pressing ON/OFF.
The dishwasher has an energy efficient wash and dry
system. The heat energy from the wash cycle is used
to dry the dishes. After the wash cycle it will take an
additional 45 minutes for a typical load of dishes to dry.
Quicker drying can be accomplished by opening the door
slightly. The use of a rinse agent is recommended. It will
improve drying and lessen water spotting.
