start the dishwasher normally. The lock will re-engage

automatically after three minutes.

Wash Cycles

DAILY: Use for dishes that are washed on a daily basis. This cycle can also deal with dried food,

though the short pre-washes are not designed for dishes with burned on food.
HEAVY: Use for heavily soiled dishes like pots, pans, casserole dishes, etc. Additional smaller items

may be added after the larger items, if there is still space, to conserve water and energy.
NORMAL: Use for normally soiled plates, glasses, bowls, serving dishes and lightly soiled pans. This

cycle is best for normally soiled mixed loads.
LIGHT: Use for delicate glass and china that has just been used and is not heavily soiled and

therefore does not need as powerful a cycle.
QUICK: Use for very lightly soiled loads that are washed immediately after use. This cycle can also be

used for very lightly soiled glass, coffee cups, china or other delicate items.
RINSE: Use to perform a rinse cycle only on dishes that you plan to wash later that day or for rinsing

the dishes while waiting for the machine to be filled. The wash temperature setting cannot be changed

for this cycle.

Adding a Dish After You Start

You can add a dish, if needed, after starting your

dishwasher. Dacor recommends that you only add

items during the first five minutes of operation to

make sure they get clean.
To add a dish:
1. Slowly open the door. The dishwasher will stop

operating. Wait a moment for the steam to clear.

2. Without touching any of the hot surfaces or

racks, insert the item into one of the racks,

following the normal loading instructions.

3. Close the door. Push on the door handle to make

sure that the door is completely shut. Operation

will resume.

Child Safety Lock

When the child safety lock is engaged, the

dishwasher buttons do not work normally,

making it more difficult to program and

start. If you press any of the buttons

(except the main power button), when the

lock is activated, the

WASH TEMP and

DRY lights will flash, but the dishwasher

can not be started in the normal manner.
