Kenmore 587.1824 Dishwasher User Manual


 
Operating Instructions (continued)
Option Selections
Hi Temp Wash Option
When HI TEMP WASH option is selected, the
dishwasher heats the water in the main wash to
approximately 140°F (60°C). Wash action will continue
but timer will not advance until proper temperature is
reached. The hotter water provided by this option helps
activate dishwasher detergent to clean food grease and
soil from dishes. HI TEMP WASH option can be used
with any cycle except QUICK RINSE.
When HI TEMP WASH option is selected, the light
above the pad will come on and remain on until end of
cycle. To turn off the HI TEMP WASH option, press the
pad a second time. The light above the pad will turn off.
To turn off the HI TEMP option, press the pad a second
time. The light above the pad will turn off.
Heat Dry Option
The HEAT DRY option in combination with rinse aid will
give you excellent drying results. The energy to use
HEAT DRY costs pennies per cycle. You may turn off
the HEAT DRY option, however you will have items in
your dish load that will not be dry at the end of the
cycle.
With either option, you may see water vapor coming
from vent during the drying portion of the cycle. Some
models have a vent that is closed during washing to hold
moisture and sound inside and then opens for drying.
To turn off the HEAT DRY option, press the pad a
second time. The light above the pad will turn off.
The drying option may be changed at any time during
the cycle and affects only the drying period.
Delay Start
The DELAY START option allows you to automatically
delay starting your dishwasher from 2-4-6 hours.
On models with 2-4-6 hour delay, press the pad once for
a 2 hour delay, twice for 4 hours and three times for 6
hours. 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.
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.

dishwasher cycle or starting the dishwasher, lock the
