Items can be added any time before the main wash starts. Open the door and check the detergent
dispenser. If the cover is still closed, add items.
To Add Items:

door.
2. Open the door. If the detergent dispenser cover is still closed, add the item(s).
3. Close the door firmly until it latches. The dishwasher resumes the cycle after a five (5) second
pause.
ADDING ITEMS DURING A CYCLE
OPTION SELECTION
Soak & Scour
Select this option to run a 4 hour pre-soak before the selected cycle. The pre-soak
consists of a standard fill, an initial 8 minute wash, then 13 wash pulses, each 90
seconds long with a 16 minute pause between pulses. This keeps the dishes wet
and soaking. At the conclusion of the pre-soak, the dishwasher drains and the
selected cycle begins.
NOTE: The Soak & Scour option is allowed with the Pots & Pans cycle only.
Hi-Temp Scour
Select this option to increase the target water temperature during the wash portion of
the cycle. Hi-Temp Scour raises this target water temperature to 145° F (63° C) in the
Main Wash for all cycles. In the Pots & Pans cycle, Hi-Temp Scour also raises the
target water temperature to 135° F (57° C) in the pre-wash. Heating the
water helps improve washing results. Hi-Temp Scour is useful when loads contain
baked-on food.
This option adds heat, water and wash time by adding at least one additional rinse mode to the cycle.
NOTE: Hi-Temp Scour is an option with Pots & Pans and Normal.
Sani-Rinse
Select this option to raise the water temperature in the final rinse to approximately
160° F (70° C) for 10 minutes. Sani-Rinse adds heat and time to the cycle. In the
Normal cycle, this high temperature rinse sanitizes the dishes and glassware in accor-
dance with the NSF International requirements (#95/480/05/2480).
NOTE: Sani-Rinse is an option with the Pots & Pans and Normal cycles.
Air Dry
Select this energy-saving option to dry without heat. Air drying is useful when loads
contain plastic dinnerware that may be sensitive to high temperatures. The dishes
take longer to dry and spotting can occur. For best drying, use a liquid rinse aid.
Some items, such as plastics, may need towel drying.
NOTE: Rinse Only does not have a dry period. Air Dry is an option with all other cycles.
