Operating Instructions
(continued)
The HEAT DRY ON option will provide faster
drying since the heating element is on during
the drying portion of cycle.
HEAT DRY OFF option saves electricity since
heating element is off during the drying
portion of cycle. To speed the drying process,
open the door slightly after the cycle is
complete. Some water droplets may remain on
door and tub and in areas where dishes touch
silverware basket or rack.
Energy Options
With either option, you may see water vapor
coming from the vent during the drying
portion of the cycle. The vent is closed during
washing to hold moisture and sound inside
and then opens for drying.
The drying option may be changed at any time
during the cycle and affects only the drying
period.
