Cycle Status Indicators
Follow the progress of your dishwasher with the Cycle Status
indicators.
NOTE: Your model may have some or all of the indicators shown
above.
Clean
Clean glows when a cycle is finished. The light turns off when you
open and close the door or press any button.
Sanitized
If you select Sanitize Rinse, Sanitized glows when the Sanitize
Rinse option 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, or the water could not be
heated to the required temperature. The light goes off when you
open and close the door or press any button.
Drying System
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.
Overfill Protection Float
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.
