If these dishes do not completely fill the dishwasher, you can add plates and other dishes that can withstand a Heavy wash to fill out the load. Sanitation wash A program that is able to deal with most household germs and particularly dirty dishware. This program uses a high final rinse temperature for good drying results and to kill germs. NB: Do not load dishware that cannot withstand high wash or rinse temperatures. Normal wash This program is recommended for daily, regular, or typical use to completely wash a full load of normally soiled dishes, such as plates, serving dishes, cups, and glasses. No options are recommended. Eco wash This program is most effective in terms of combined energy and water consumption.
