Select Options
The light by the selected button will be lit to indicate which Option has been selected.
Normal Temp This option is for normally soiled dishes, optimizes wash performance while
conserving energy.
Boost Temp This option increases the temperature to help clean heavily soiled dishes and may
increase the overall cycle time. Option may be turned On or Off during the wash
cycle. This option will also improve dry performance on the Normal cycle.
Sanitize Temp This option raises the water temperature in the final rinse to sanitize your dishware.
The cycle length will vary depending on the temperature of your inlet water.
NOTE: This option is monitored for sanitization requirements. If the cycle is
interrupted during or after the main wash portion or if the incoming water
temperature is so low that adequate water heating cannot be achieved, the
sanitizing conditions may not be met. In these cases, the Sanitized light will not
illuminate at the end of the cycle. Utilizing this option will modify the cycle to meet
the requirements of Section 6, NSF 184 for soil removal and sanitization efficacy.
NOTE: NSF certified residential dishwashers are not intended for licensed food
