Operating Instructions
(continued)
Hi-Temp Wash Option (available
select models)
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 and is not
recommended for use with CHINA.
To turn off option, select HI-TEMP WASH OFF.
Hi-Temp Rinse Option (available
select models)
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.
