Operating Instructions
Continued
Low Energy Wash Cycle
For pre-rinsed or lightly soiled loads. Cycle time**
is about 53 minutes plus the time needed to heat
the water if the HI-TEMP WASH option is selected.
What happens in each option
Hi-Temp Wash
When this option is selected, water for the main
wash and the final rinse is heated (except in the
RINSE 8 HOLD Cycle) to 145°F (63°C).
If water is already hot enough, the cycle
continues without delay.
Rinse 8 Hold Cycle
For rinsing a few items to be washed one or more
days later. Cycle time is about 12 minutes. Use
AIR DRY only. Do not use detergent.
**Cycle time includes heated dry times.
Air Dry
Air in the dishwasher is automatically heated
during the “dry” part of all cycles.
If the AIR DRY Option is selected, air in the
dishwasher is not heated. Using this option helps
save energy, but dishes take longer to dry (over-
night) and some water spotting may result. Some
items (such as plastics) may need towel drying.
For best results, use a liquid rinse aid such
as Jet-Dry.@
