tips
●
Operate dishwasher only when
it’s full. Let the dishes accumulate
in dishwasher. When you put in only
a partial load, use the RINSE&
HOLD cycle to rinse off heavy soils.
Be sure to latch the door when
waiting for a full load. This helps
keep soils moist, easier to remove.
●
Always select the cycle that uses
least amount of water that will
remove the soil from the load. See
page 6.
●
If you don’t need your dishes right
away, use your ENERGY SAVER
drying feature that turns the drying
heater off automatically. Dishes dry
naturally over a longer period such
as overnight.
Convenience features
This dishwasher has many convenient
features. Among them are:
●
Controls are arranged left to right
as you use them.
●
Automatic “beep” responses to
instructions and a lighted display
let you know the desired function
has been selected.
●
Lets you select fast, heated drying
or energy-saving, no-heat drying.
A DISPLAY PANEL that tells
you what’s happening in the
dishwasher and if something’s
wrong.
●
Remembers your last cycle so you
don’t have to reprogram each time.
