Soak & Scour
Select this option to pre-soak your dishes for 4 hours in your
dishwasher instead of pre-soaking them in the sink. When you
select Soak & Scour, the dishwasher fills and then sprays for
8 minutes. It will then pause for 16 minutes while dishes soak,
and then spray for 90 seconds to keep dishes wet. Pausing for
16 minutes and spraying for 90 seconds are repeated for 4 hours.
At the end of the 4 hours, the dishwasher drains and then starts
the cycle you have selected. The Main Wash heating time will be
extended to reach 145°F (63°C). This pre-soaking uses only one
additional fill of water and does not require special detergent.
Use standard detergent per cycle recommendations.
If your dishwasher has a dual-digit display, it will show the hours
remaining in the soaking period before the cycle starts, beginning
with
showing 4 hours remaining.
NOTE: Soak & Scour is an option for the ACCUSENSE™ (on
some models), Pots & Pans and Normal cycles.
Hi-Temp Wash
Select this option to increase the target water temperature during
the wash portions of the cycle. Hi-Temp Wash raises the target
water temperature to 145ºF (63ºC) in the main wash. Heating the
water helps improve washing results. Hi-Temp Wash is useful
when loads contain baked-on food.
This option adds heat, wash time and water to the cycle.
NOTE: Hi-Temp Wash is an option with ACCUSENSE™ (on some
models), Pots & Pans and Normal cycles. Selecting Hi-Temp
Wash with Soak & Scour or SANI RINSE™ options has no effect,
as they already raise the main wash to 145°F (63°C).
SANI RINSE™ Option
Select this option to raise the water temperature in the final rinse
to approximately 155°F (68°C). The SANI RINSE™ option adds
heat and time to the cycle. The Main Wash heating time will be
extended to reach 145°F (63°C). In the ACCUSENSE™, Pots &
Pans, and Normal cycles, this high-temperature rinse sanitizes
your dishes and glassware in accordance with NSF/ANSI
Standard 184 for Residential Dishwashers. Certified residential
dishwashers are not intended for licensed food establishments.
NOTE: Use the SANI RINSE™ option with ACCUSENSE™ (on
some models), Pots & Pans and Normal cycles. Only these
sanitization cycles have been designed to meet the NSF/ANSI
requirements.
Heated Dry
Select this option to dry dishes with heat.
Switching off Heated Dry skips the dry period. This is useful when
loads contain plastic dinnerware that may be sensitive to high
temperatures. The dishes take longer to dry and some spotting
may occur. Some items (such as plastics) may need towel drying.
For best drying, use a liquid rinse aid.
NOTE: Heated Dry is an option with all cycles, except GLASS
XPRESS™ and Rinse Only cycles. Heated Dry begins
automatically with all cycles unless you switch it off.
