Targets toughest food soils. Use for hard-to-clean heavily soiled pots, pans,
casseroles, and tableware.
This cycle senses the load size, soil amount, and toughness of soil, to adjust the
cycle for improved cleaning, using only the amount of water and energy needed.
The Auto cycle is automatically selected if you first press the Start button. Includes
a heated drying option.*
This cycle is recommended for daily, regular or typical use to completely wash
and dry a full load of normally soiled dishes. This dishwasher's government energy
certifications were based on the Normal cycle with only the Short Power Dry (Short
Heated Dry on some models) option selected.**
For fast results, the Quick cycle will clean dishes using slightly more water and
energy. For improved drying, select a power or heated drying option.
NOTE: Some detergents are not recommended for short wash cycles, please refer
to your detergent packaging for more information. Includes a heated drying option.
Use for rinsing dishes, glasses, and silverware that will not be washed right away.
Do not use detergent. During cycle, the rinse action will repeatedly pause for several
seconds.
*The government energy certifications are not based on this cycle. See the Normal cycle description for the government
energy certification cycle. Using the Auto cycle may increase your energy usage.
**No other washing and drying temperature options were selected, and the dishwasher was not subjected to truncated testing.
Rinse aid was not used, and there was no detergent used in the prewash.
OPTION SELECTIONS
OPTIONS
Raises main wash temperature to improve
cleaning for loads containing tough, baked-on
food.
Sanitizes dishes and glassware in accordance
with NSF International NSF/ANSI Standard 184
for Residential Dishwashers. Certified residential
dishwashers are not intended for licensed food
establishments. Only sanitizing cycles have
been designed to meet the requirements of the
NSF/ANSI 184 performance standard for soil
removal and for sanitization efficacy. There is
no intention, either directly or indirectly, that all
cycles on a NSF/ANSI 184 certified dishwasher
meet the NSF/ANSI 184 performance standard
for soil removal and for sanitization efficacy.
The Sani Rinse indicator glows at the end of the
cycle if the Sani Rinse option was successfully
completed. If your load did not properly sanitize,
the indicator will flash at the end of the cycle.
This can happen if the cycle is interrupted,
or if the water does not reach the required
temperature. The light goes off when you open
and close the door or press CANCEL.
