Heat Dry Option
“HEAT DRY” will show on the display when the
Heat Dry Option is selected. Heat dry means the
air in the dishwasher is heated during the “dry”
portion of any cycle except the Rinse Cycle.
For best drying results, use a liquid rinse agent
such as Jet-Dry@
Air Dry Option
‘AIR DRY” will show on the display when the Air
Dry Option is selected. The Air Dry Option helps
save energy, but the load takes longer to dry (over-
night) and some spotting may result. Some items
(such as plastics) may need towel drying.
For best drying results, use a liquid rinse agent
such as Jet-Dry.@
Hi-Temp Option
“HI TEMP” will show on the display when the
Hi-Temp Option is selected. When the Hi-Temp
Option is selected, water for the first wash
(for cycles with two washes), the main wash
and the final rinse is heated to 140°F (60%).
While the water is heating, “HEATING” and the
water temperature will show on the display. The
heating time is based on the temperature of the
water supply as it enters the dishwasher. The
cooler the water, the longer the heating time. A
preset time limit will end the water heating if the
heating time runs too long.
If the starling water temperature is less than
90°F (32X), “LESS THAN 90”” will show on the
display. When the water temperature reaches
140°F (60°C) the cycle will continue. If the starting
water temperature is already hot enough the
dishwasher will not pause to heat.
NOTE: If the Hi-Temp Option is selected and the
water does not heat to between 135°F and 140°F
(57°C and 6O”C), the display will show “HI TEMP
LESS THAN 135”” at the end of the cycle.
