HEATED DRY. Turns drying heater on
for fast drying. Adds 33 minutes to
wash cycle time. Available on all wash
cycles except Rinse & Hold. The
HEATED DRY light will light up during
the HEATED DRY cycle.
NATURAL DRY (no-heat drying).
Saves energy because the drying
cycle does not operate. Dishes dry
naturally over a longer period, such
as overnight. Available on all wash
cycles. The HEATED DRY light will
light up during the NATURAL DRY
cycle.
If you need your dishes sooner, open
the dishwasher door after the cycle is
complete to reduce the natural drying
time.
Use of this option reduces the
electrical energy used by this model
approximately 9.2% for the Normal
Cycle.
You Will See Water Vapor:
• Through the vent next to the door latch
when water is pumped out
• Through the vent next to the door latch
during drying operations
Clicking Sounds You May Hear:

POTS & PANS—For items such as
pots, pans and casserole dishes with
dried-on or baked-on soils. Everyday
dishes may be included.
It is important to follow the loading
instructions on pages 7-9.
NORMAL WASH—For loads of
everyday dishes, glasses and
cookware with medium soils. Designed
to yield high performance on normal
loads.
LIGHT WASH—For most loads of
everyday dishes, with light soils or
soils that have not dried on. It saves
hot water over the higher performance
cycles.
CHINA & CRYSTAL—For lightly-soiled
china and crystal. This cycle is similar
to Light Wash Cycle except the wash
action is softened by pumping air
along with the water to protect your
delicate items. Pre-rinse before
loading. Be sure you have followed
the loading instructions on pages 7-9.
RINSE & HOLD—For rinsing partial
loads which will be washed later. Do
not use detergent.
CANCEL & DRAIN—For cancelling
operation after dishwasher has
started. As the timer rapidly advances
to a drain period and then to OFF;
• Water Temp Boost and Heated Dry
indicator lights glow. This is normal.
• Detergent and rinse agent are
released into the tub. If you do not
plan to run another cycle immediately,
use Rinse & Hold to rinse them off.
CYCLE INDICATOR DISPLAY—Shows
where the dishwasher is in the cycle.
The indicator will pause during the main
detergent wash portion of the cycles.
WATER TEMP BOOST LIGHT
Your dishwasher has a system to
assure proper water temperature for
good cleaning. During the wash cycle,
a heater is energized to maintain hot
water. If the water is not at the proper
temperature at the end of the wash
cycle, washing and water heating will
continue until the correct water
temperature is reached, or up to 16
additional minutes in the main wash
cycle. During the temperature boost
period, the indicator light glows.
HEATED DRY LIGHT
Light glows during HEATED DRY cycle
and during the NATURAL DRY cycle.
