Start-Up/Quick Reference Drying - Rinse Aid is essential. You must use a drying agent such as a rinse aid for good drying performance (sample included). Rinse aid along with the ProDry™ option will provide best drying and avoid excessive moisture in the dishwasher interior. For best drying use the ProDry™ option. ProScrub® Option to clean baked-on food When the ProScrub® option is selected, it provides a concentrated wash on the back of the lower dish rack for hard-to-clean dishes. Place these dishes with the soiled surface of the dish A toward the ProScrub® spray jets in the lower rack of the dishwasher. A. Back of dishwasher SLIDE Dispensers vary by model Express Wash - When you need fast results. Efficient dishwashers run longer to save water and energy, just as driving a car slower saves on gas. When you need fast results, the Express Wash will clean your dishes using slightly more water and energy. Select the ProDry™ option to include automatic drying (adds approximately 38 to 45 minutes to the Express Wash cycle). ProWash™ cycle for optimal cleaning The most advanced and versatile cycle. ProWash™ cycle senses the soil amount and toughness of soil to adjust the cycle for optimal cleaning using only the amount of water and energy needed. The ProWash™ and Tough cycles are recommended for tough soil. No need to pre-rinse dishes; just scrape leftover food into the trash or disposal and load. Press START/RESUME every time you add a dish. IMPORTANT: If anyone opens the door (such as, to add a dish, even during the Delay option), the Start/Resume button must be pressed each time. Push door firmly closed within 3 seconds of pressing START/RESUME. If the door is not closed within 3 seconds, the Start/Resume button LED will flash, an audible tone will be heard, and the cycle will not start. Proper Detergent Dosing We recommend quality tablets and packs for convenience and improved performance. It is possible to use too much detergent in your dishwasher. This can lead to etching of your dishes. See "Add Detergent" and "Add Rinse Aid" in the "Dishwasher Use" section, to determine the amount of detergent needed based on your water hardness. 5
