Dishwasher
Auto
Memory Your dishwasher has the ability to remember what options you like with NORMAL WASH and
POTS & PANS wash cycle. This means that if you select NORMAL WASH your dishwasher will
automatically select the options that you selected last time you washed with the NORMAL WASH
cycle. You can change the options that have been remembered with a particular wash cycle if you
desire.
Child
Lockout
Mode
(on some
models) To reduce the possibility of children starting the dishwasher when unattended, a child lockout
feature can be enabled. Once enabled, each button must be pressed and held for two seconds until
you hear a BEEP, before the dishwasher will respond. While in this mode the SENSING and
CLEAN light will illuminate while the button is pressed.
This feature can be enabled by pressing both the START/CANCEL and POTS & PANS buttons
together and holding both for two seconds. You will hear three BEEPS when the child lockout is
enabled.
The child lockout can be cancelled by pressing the START/CANCEL and POTS & PANS together
and holding both pressed for two seconds until a single BEEP is heard.
NOTE:
Child lockout overrides tone silencing.
Tone
Silencing
(on some
models) You can prevent the beep from sounding when selecting control settings.
1. Press the START/CANCEL and NORMAL WASH buttons together prior to selecting settings.
2. To have sound again, simply press the START/CANCEL and NORMAL WASH buttons
together again.
Clean
Sensor The Clean Sensor monitors the circulating water during the cycles and sets the water temperature
and cycle length to match soil levels. Cycle length is automatically increased to handle increasing
levels of soil.
