Option Selections
Heated Wash Option
When HIGH TEMP WASH 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. HIGH TEMP WASH ON option can be
used with any cycle except QUICK RINSE.
To turn off option, press RESET button.
Heated Rinse Option
When HIGH TEMP RINSE 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. HIGH TEMP RINSE option can be used
with any cycle except QUICK RINSE.
To turn off option, press RESET button.
Heated Dry Option
The Heated Dry option in combination with rinse aid will
give you excellent drying results. The energy to use
Heated Dry cost pennies per cycle. You may turn off
the Heated Dry option, however you will have items in
your dish load that will not be dry at the end of the
cycle.
With either option, you may see water vapor coming
from 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.
To turn off option, press RESET button.
