3. Turn Cycle Control Knob clockwise to point to a
desired cycle. You will feel a definite stop at each
cycle mark. The dishwasher will automatically
start the cycle you selected.
NOTE: If the door is latched, you will hear cycles
start and stop as the knob passes each cycle
mark. This is normal and will not hurt the dish­
washer. If you prefer, you can set cycles with the
door unlatched.
To add a dish after starting
1. To be sure the added item is washed and
rinsed, make sure the Cycle Control Knob has
not passed LIGHT WASH.
2. Lift up on the door latch to unlatch door and
stop the cycle. Don’t open the door until the
spray arms stop spinning.
3. Open the door and add the dish.
4. Close the door. Do not latch it. Wait 30
seconds for air in the dishwasher to warm up.
This helps reduce the amount of moisture that
can come from the vent when restarting the
cycle.
5. Press door in to latch it. The dishwasher will
start where it stopped.
