Option Selections
You can customize your cycles by pressing an option. If you
change your mind, press the option again to turn the option off.
Select a different option if desired.
You can change an option anytime before the selected option
begins. For example, you can press an unheated drying option
any time before drying begins.
After a wash cycle, the dishwasher remembers the options used
and uses the same options in the next wash cycle, unless you
select new options or press CANCEL.
Hi-Temp Scour
Select this high-temperature option for improved cleaning of
heavily-soiled dishes. Selecting this option adds heat, water and
time to the wash cycle. Heating the water helps improve washing
results.
The Pots & Pans cycle, with the Hi-Temp Scour feature, is
recommended for baked-on soil.
NOTE:
The Hi-Temp Scour feature is an option with Normal
Wash, Heavy Wash, and Pots & Pans.
SANI RINSE™ Option
Select this option to raise the water temperature in the final rinse
to approximately 155°F (68°C) for 10 minutes. The SANI RINSE™
option adds heat and time to the cycle. In the Normal Wash,
Heavy Wash, and Pots & Pans cycles, this high-temperature rinse
sanitizes your dishes and glassware in accordance with the NSF
Protocol P153 Sanitization and Cleaning Performance of
Household Spray-Type Dishwashers.
NOTE:
Use the SANI RINSE™ option with the Normal Wash,
Heavy Wash, and Pots & Pans cycles.
Air Dry
Select this option to dry dishes without heat and save energy.
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:
The dishwasher automatically heats the air in the
dishwasher during the “dry” portion of the cycle unless you
select AIR DRY.
Delay Start
Use Delay Start 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.

2.
Press DELAY START 1 time for a 2-hour delay, 2 times for a 4-
hour delay, or 3 times for a 6-hour delay.
3.
Select a wash cycle and option.
The number glows above Delay Start. The dishwasher starts the
cycle in the selected number of hours. If you do not press a cycle
within 30 seconds, the Delay Start indicator turns off.
NOTES:

To cancel the delay and cycle, press CANCEL.

To cancel the delay and start the cycle, press DELAY START
until “6” glows. Then press DELAY START one more time. The
delayed cycle starts.
Cycle Status Indicators
Follow the progress of your dishwasher with the Cycle Status
Indicators.
Sensing
Your dishwasher senses the soil level on the dishes. Soil level
determines the length of some cycles, the amount of heat added
to the wash or rinse, and the cycle needed for the load. Sensing
glows during the soil sensing parts of the cycle. Wash action
continues while sensing occurs.
Water Heating
Water Heating glows whenever water is heated during a cycle.
Wash or rinse action continues as the water heats.
Clean
Clean glows when a cycle is finished. The light turns off when you
open the door or press CANCEL.
Sanitized
If you select the SANI RINSE™ option, Sanitized glows when the
SANI RINSE™ cycle is finished. If your dishwasher did not
properly sanitize your dishes, the light flashes at the end of the
cycle. This can happen if the cycle is interrupted. The light goes
off when you open the door.
