The energy use of the dishwasher was reduced by applying more of the factors that don't use so much energy and less of the ones that use more. As a result, you will see that the wash cycles take longer.  NOTE The dishwasher is programmed to remember your last cycle so you do not have to reset each time. To start the dishwasher using the same cycle and options selected on the previous wash, just press the START/CANCEL pad.  NOTE Not all cycles and options available on all models.  NOTE Lights on the console will remain on once the door is shut and wash cycle begins. If it is preferred to have the lights turn off while cycle is running see Console Lights section for instructions.  NOTE Very Important Information -Read Before Operating Your Dishwasher! Normal Operating Sounds This dishwasher does not sound like most dishwashers - IT'S QUIETER. Your Direct Feed Wash System dishwasher uses energy efficient motors for the wash and drain portions of the cycle you select. Each cycle has a series of water fills and drains for washing and rinsing dishes. As each cycle begins, you may-or may not- hear the drain motor. The next sound you will hear is the splashing water as it enters the tub. PLEASE BE ADVISED: If you compare this dishwasher to previous models, you may be surprised at what you DON'T hear. Getting Started 1 Load Dishwasher (See Preparing and Loading Dishes). 2. Add detergent (See Dishwasher Dispenser & Detergents). 3. Add Rinse Aid, if needed (See Rinse Aid). 4. Select desired CYCLE (See Cycle Chart). The indicator light will glow when selected. 5. Select desired OPTION (See Energy Options). The indicator light will glow when selected. 6.

To start, Press the START/CANCEL pad then close the door firmly within 4 seconds.  NOTE If the dishwasher door is opened while the unit is running, the START/CANCEL pad must be pressed and the door shut immediately to return the unit to the selected cycle and option, this must happen within 10 minutes for the unit to continue the cycle. 3
