cannot be delayed.
IMPORTANT:
■ Operate your dishwasher only when you are at home.
■ If your home is equipped with a water softener, do not start
the dishwasher during the regeneration of the softener.
Drying System
During drying, you can see steam escaping through the vent at
the upper left corner of the door. This is normal as the heat dries
your dishes.
IMPORTANT:
The vapor is hot. Do not touch the vent
during drying.
Overfill Protection Float
The overfill protection float (in the front right corner of the
dishwasher tub) keeps the dishwasher from overfilling. It must be
in place for the dishwasher to operate.
Check under the float for objects that may keep the protector
from moving up or down.
