Whirlpool DU915 Dishwasher User Manual

Heated Dry
Select this option to dry dishes with heat.
Switching off Heated Dry saves energy and is useful when loads
contain plastic dinnerware that may be sensitive to high
temperatures. The dishes take longer to dry and some spotting
can occur.
For best drying, use a liquid rinse aid. Some items (such as
plastics) may need towel drying.
NOTE: Heated Dry is an option with all cycles except Rinse Only.
Locked
Use Locked to prevent unintended use of the dishwasher. You
can also use the Locked feature to prevent unintended cycle or
option changes during a cycle.
NOTE: When Locked is lit, all buttons are disabled.
To lock the controls
Press and hold
for 5 seconds. Locked glows. If you press any pad while your
dishwasher is locked, the light flashes 3 times.
To unlock the controls
Press and hold HEATED DRY for 5 seconds until the light turns
off.
NOTE: The dishwasher door can be opened while the controls
are locked.
Delay Hours
Use Delay Hours to run your dishwasher at a later time or during
off-peak hours. You can add items to the load anytime during the
delay countdown. After adding items, close the door firmly until it
latches. The delay countdown will not continue if the door is not
latched.

1. Close the door.

DryingSystem
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.
OverfillProtectionFloat
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.
