Operating Instructions
Recommended Cycle for typical
use:
The Normal cycle along with the heated
dry option together provide the best all
around performance. This cycle selection
is recommended for everyday use and is
suitable for a large range of both dish load
sizes and food quantities remaining on those
dishes.
Option Selection
Heavy Wash
For heavily soiled dishware, pots, pans,
casserols and dinnerware with dried-on or
baked-on soils:
• Turn dial to HEAVY WASH
• Select desired heating option (heat
dry/air dry).
Normal Wash
For daily, regular use to completely wash
and dry up to a full load of dishes and
silverware:
• Turn dial to NORMAL WASH
• Select desired heating option (heat
dry/air dry).
Drying
For adding an additional dry period to a
cycle to obtain warm, dry dishes:
• Ensure the heat dry option is still
selected.
• Within 15 mins after cycle completion,
open the door slightly, rotate the knob
clockwise to "DRYING", and close the
door.
• For the best drying: While the door is
open briefl y to re-set the timer gently
move the racks in and out an inch or
two to spill out some of the water that
may be trapped in recessed areas of
dishware.
Water Heating Delay
This dishwasher is equipped with a thermostat
to ensure that the water is heated to the
proper temperature for optimal cleaning
and drying results. The knob/timer on the
dishwasher may pause at the position labeled
"water heating". The dishwasher is not stuck
here, but is simply heating the water to the
proper temperature before advancing. A
minimum water temperature of 120
recommended to minimize this water heating
delay.
Using the Timer
The timer advances to complete the portion
of the cycle between the dial position and
OFF. Started at Heavy Wash it will run
through Heavy, Normal and Dry. Set at
Normal Wash it will run Normal and Dry,
and so on.
• It is best to have the door unlatched
while setting the timer.
• The timer dial should always be
advanced in the clockwise direction.
• 4 positions are available for use, the
OFF position and the start positions for
Heavy Wash, Normal Wash and Drying.
• Other stops on the dial path are to
allow the unit functions to be quickly
checked during production but are of
no practical use for washing or drying
dishes in the home.
• The "Water Heating" text is to mark the
position where the dial may pause while
temperature is increased to make the
wash eff ective - it is not a location for
starting any cycle.
• The Heavy and Normal cycles start with
a drain, then a fi ll, then spraying - you
may not be able to hear that it has
started at fi rst.
Energy Option
The toggle switch provided to choose
between heat dry and air dry aff ects heater
operation but only during the drying portion
of the cycle. The selection may be made
at any time prior to or during the cycle. It
aff ects only the portion of the cycle's drying
that follows the selection. With either
option, you may see water vapor coming
from the vent near the top of the door - this
is normal.
