6 Operating Instructions Wash Cycle Selections Cycle times are approximate and vary by options selected. Hot water is necessary to activate dishwasher detergent and melt fatty food soils. An automatic sensor checks the water temperature for the main wash of each cycle. When HI-TEMP WASH is selected, the sensor checks for an even higher temperature. Run hot water in a faucet nearest the dishwasher until water is hot before starting. Rinse For rinsing dishes that will be washed later. Water usage is approximately 2.2 gallons. Cycle time is approximately 15 mins. Fast For regularly soiled and pre-rinsed dishes and silverware. Water usage is approximately 4.5 gallons. Wash time is approximately 30 mins. Cycle Selections The Smart Sensor checks the soil level on your dishes in the Auto, Normal and Eco cycles. Cycle time and water usage will vary based on the amount of soil on the dishes. Auto The dishwasher's Smart Sensor technology will determine the type of cycle required to clean the dishes and will clean more efficiently every time. When a partial load of lightly soiled dishes are placed in the unit, a wash cycle similar to a short wash will automatically be performed. When a full load of heavily solid dishes is placed in the unit, a heavy wash cycle will automatically be performed. Water usage ranges from approximately 3.0 to 7.4 gallons. Wash time ranges from approximately 118 to 200 mins. Heavy For pots, pans, casserole dishes and dinnerware with dried-on or baked-on soils. Water usage ranges from approximately 7.1 to 8.1 gallons. Wash time ranges from approximately 129 to 189 mins. Normal For regularly soiled dishes and silverware. Water usage ranges from approximately 3.0 to 7.4 gallons. Wash time ranges from approximately 118 to 200 mins. Energy Option Selections Hi-Temp When HI-TEMP option is selected, the dishwasher heats water in the main wash to approximately 1400F (600C). This increase in water temperature helps dishwasher detergent remove food, grease and soil from dishes more effectively and aids in drying. HITEMP option can only be used with AUTO, HEAVY, and NORMAL cycles. Sanitize To sanitize your dishes and glassware, select the SANITIZE option. This option heats the water temperature in the final rinse to 1570F (69.40C) and maintains that temperature for 7 minutes. SANITIZE is available in Auto, Heavy, and Normal cycles. Only these sanitization cycles have been designed to meet NSF requirements. The cycle time will be extended until the proper water temperature is reached. Washing action will continue during the water heating delay. For best results, the incoming water temperature should be at least 1200F (490C). If the SANITIZE option is selected, the led above the pad comes on. The sanitization criteria may not be satisfied if there is an interruption of the cycle, a power failure occurs, or if incoming water temperature is below 1200F (490C). Sanitize led flashes at the end of the cycle if the NSF requirements for sanitization are not reached.
