Wash Cycle Selections
Note: Cycle times are approximate and will vary with options selected.
Hi-Temp Wash Option
When HI-TEMP WASH ON 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. HI-
TEMP WASH ON option can be used with any
cycle except CHINA and RINSE HOLD.
To turn off option, select HI-TEMP WASH OFF.
Sanitize Option
To sanitize your dishes and glassware, select the
SANITIZE ON option. The water temperature in
the final rinse will be raised to 155°F (68°) and will
maintain that temperature for 9 minutes. This
option is available in Pots & Pans, Normal, Light
and Glasses cycles.
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).
The sanitize criteria may not be satisfied if there is
an interruption of the cycle, power failure, or if the
incoming water temperature is below 120°F
(49°C).
Heat Dry Option
HEAT DRY ON option provides faster drying since
the heating element is on during the drying portion
of cycle.
HEAT DRY OFF option saves electricity since the
heating element is off during the drying portion of
cycle. To speed drying process, open the door
slightly after the cycle is complete. Some water
droplets may remain on door and tub and in areas
where dishes touch silverware basket and rack.
With either option, you may see water vapor
coming from vent during drying portion of 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.
