Using Delay Hours
Use a delayed start to run the dishwasher
during off-peak hours to reduce energy
usage or to reduce daytime heat buildup in
your home.
1. Close door firmly until it latches.
2. Press the Delay Hours pad once for a
2-hour delay start, twice for 4
hours, or three times for 6
hours. The indicator will glow.
3. Press a Cycle pad. The Delay Start
countdown begins when you
press the Cycle pad. If you
don’t press a Cycle pad within
30 seconds, the Delay Hours
indicator turns off.
4. If desired, press one or more Option
pads.
The Delay Hours indicator
stays on until the wash cycle
begins.
To cancel delay and start the
dishwasher:
1. Press Delay Hours until the 6 glows.
2. Press Delay Hours one
more time. The delayed cycle
starts.
To cancel delay and cycle:
1. Press Cancel/Drain. The Delay Hours
indicator will turn off.
2. Press new Cycle and Option
pads.
NOTE: You can add items to the load any-
time during the delay countdown. After
adding items, close the door firmly until it
latches. The delay countdown will not con-
tinue if the door is not latched.
