Dishware
Drying
At the end of the cycle the dishwasher will stop and a period of condensation
drying will
follow. After drying, the cycle is complete and:
= the"Clean" light will illuminate (select models).
= the completion signal will sound (select models).
= the"Sanitized"
light may appear. See section on Sanitization for more information.
= the countdown display will show "0" (select models).
NOTE: If your household water supply is too hot, your dishwasher's heating time may be
reduced and the "Sanitized" light may not illuminate. Your Dishwasher installation Manual
has information
on the recommended temperature
for your household hot water supply.
NOTE: To accelerate and enhance drying, open the dishwasher door, pull the top rack a few
inches out of the dishwasher, and prop the dishwasher door against the top rack.
Sanitized Light
When the Sanitized light appears, it means that the dishware and kitchenware that was
just washed has been sanitized according to the requirements of the National Sanitation
Foundation (NSF). For more information
on NSF certification,
refer to the Wash Cycle
information
section of this manual.
