Wash Cycle Selections
Note: Cycle times are approximate and will
vary with options selected. Hot water is
necessary to activate dishwasher detergent and
melt fatty food soils. An automatic sensor will
check the incoming water temperature and, if
it is not hot enough, the timer will be delayed
for automatic water heating in the main wash
of all cycles. This happens even when HI-TEMP
WASH option has not been selected. When
HI-TEMP WASH is selected, an even higher
temperature will be guaranteed to handle
heavier soil loads.

Dishwasher!
Normal Operating Sounds
This dishwasher does not sound like most
dishwashers—IT'S QUIETER.
The new Precision Wash System™ uses
energy efficient motors for the wash and
drain portions of the cycle you select. Each
cycle has a series of water fills and drains for
washing and rinsing dishes. As each cycle
begins, you may–or may not–hear the drain
motor.
The next sound you will hear is the
splashing water as it enters the tub. Then
the lower arm rotates and circulates water.
This is followed by a pause and a slightly
different sound as the middle arm sprays
water. If you listen closely, you will hear the
change in sound as the wash action switches
from one arm to the other.
PLEASE BE ADVISED: If you compare this
dishwasher to previous models, you may
be surprised at what you DON'T hear!
