Hi-Temp
Press Options key to access options available for
the wash cycles.
When HI-TEMP option is selected, the dishwasher
heats water in the main wash to approximately
140°F (60°C). HI-TEMP ON will be displayed.
This increase in water temperature helps
dishwasher detergent remove food, grease and soil
from dishes more effectively and aids in drying.
HI-TEMP option can be used with AUTO, HEAVY
and NORMAL Cycles only.
When HI-TEMP option is selected, the icon will light
up and remain on until the door is closed.
To turn off the HI-TEMP option, press the touchpad
SET a second time. HI-TEMP OFF displayed.
Sanitize
To sanitize your dishes and glassware, select the
SANITIZE option. SANITIZE ON will be displayed
when selected, the light surrounding the icon will
turn red until the START pad is pressed or the door
is closed. This option heats the water temperature
in the final rinse to 157°F (69.4°C) and maintains
that temperature for 7 minutes. SANITIZE is
available in Auto, Heavy, and Normal cycles. Only
these sanitization cycles have been designed to
meet NSF requirements.
The cycle time will be extended until the proper
water temperature is reached. Washing action will
continue during the water heating delay. For best
results, the incoming water temperature should be
at least 120°F (49°C).
If the SANITIZE option was selected, SANITIZED will
be displayed at the end of the cycle. SANITIZED
will not display at the end of the cycle if the NSF
requirements for sanitization are not reached. The
sanitization criteria may not be satisfied if there is
an interruption of the cycle, a power failure occurs,
or if the incoming water temperature is below 120°F
(49°C).
To turn off the SANITIZE option, press SET a second
time. SANITIZE OFF is displayed.
