Operating Instructions
(continued)
Hi-Temp Wash Option
When HI-TEMP WASH ON option is selected,
the dishwasher heats the water in the main
wash to approximately 140°F (60°C). Wash
action will continue but timer will not advance
until proper temperature is reached. The
hotter water provided by this option helps
activate dishwasher detergent to clean food
grease and soil from dishes. HI-TEMP WASH
ON option can be used with any cycle except
RINSE/HOLD.
To turn off option, select HI-TEMP WASH OFF.
Hi-Temp Rinse Option
When HI-TEMP RINSE ON option is selected,
the dishwasher heats the water in the final
rinse to approximately 140°F (60°C). This will
speed drying and reduce spotting. HI-TEMP
RINSE ON option can be used with any cycle
except RINSE/HOLD.
TO turn off option, select HI-TEMP RINSE OFF.
Heat Dry Option
HEAT DRY ON option provides faster drying
since the heating element is on during the
drying portion of cycle.
HEAT DRY OFF option saves electricity since
the heating element is off during the drying
portion of cycle. To speed 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 and rack.
With either option, you may see water vapor
coming from vent during drying portion of
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.
Status Indicator Lights
When DELAY START option is selected, the
Delay Start light will glow as timer counts
down to begin cycle.
The HEATING DELAY light means the cycle is
being extended to heat water to proper
temperature in the main wash or final rinse,
based on options selected.
CLEAN light comes on when a cycle is
complete. To turn it off, turn dial slightly until
light goes off.
