2:30–3:30

7.5 (28.3)

Normal

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 Heat Dry option selected.**

(11.4–28.1)

Quick Wash

For fast results, this cycle will clean dishes using

slightly more water and energy. For improved drying,

select a heated drying option.

NOTE:

Some detergents are not recommended for

short wash cycles; please refer to your detergent

packaging for more information.

All Soil Levels

1:00–1:05

Extended

Soak

This cycle quietly soaks dishes with an extended

prewash which eliminates the need to presoak dishes,

saving personal time and effort. For optimal cleaning

results during this cycle, add prewash detergent. Use

this cycle for loads with heavy amounts of dried-on or

hard-to-clean baked-on food. This cycle includes a

heated drying option.

Dried-On/Baked-

On

6:40–7:35

7.5 (28.3)

Boost

This cycle is more aggressive than the Normal Cycle

using a higher amount of energy, water and

temperature along with a longer cycle time to provide

improved cleaning performance. This cycle includes

the heated dry option.*

All Soil Levels

2:00–3:30

4.4–7.5 (16.7–28.3)

*The government energy certifications are not based on this cycle and may increase your energy usage. See the Normal cycle

description for the government energy certification cycle.

**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.
