This section tells you how to operate the dishwasher. Operating your dishwasher properly
enables you to obtain the best possible results.
Cycle selection chart
The dishwasher will wash and dry dishes according to the selections you make on the control
panel. The dishwasher remembers the last cycle and option(s) that were completed. You only have
to press the Start pad if you want to use the same cycle and option(s). However, if the last cycle
you completed was Rinse Only, the dishwasher will run the Normal cycle if you press the Start pad.
Operating Your Dishwasher
Use this cycle for loads with moderate amounts of food soil. (The energy usage
label is based on this cycle.)
