Rinse Aid
Your dishwasher cleans by spraying a mixture of hot water and detergent through the spray arms
against soiled surfaces. First, the dishwasher fi lls with water covering the fi lter area. Water is
then pumped through the spray arms. Soil particles go through and across the fi lter and down the
drain as the water is pumped out. This series of steps are repeated as needed. The number of
water fi lls vary with the cycle being used.
Wash Cycle Selections
Cycle times are approximate and will vary with
options selected. Hot water is necessary to
activate dishwasher detergent and melt fatty
food soils. An automatic sensor will check
the incoming water temperature and, if it is
not hot enough, the cycle will be lengthened
for automatic water heating in the main wash
and fi nal rinse of all cycles. This happens
even when HI-TEMP WASH option has not be
selected. When HI-TEMP WASH is selected,
an even higher temperature will be reached to
handle heavier soil loads.
Option Selections
Hi-Temp Wash Option
When HI-TEMP WASH option is selected, the
dishwasher heats water in the main wash to
approximately 140
o
F (60
o
C).
This increase in water temperature helps the
dishwasher detergent remove food grease and
soil from dishes more effectively and aids in
drying. HI-TEMP WASH option can be used with
all cycles except RINSE ONLY. HI-TEMP WASH
is automatically provided when the HEAVY
WASH cycle is selected.
When HI-TEMP WASH option is selected, the
light above the pad will come on and remain
on until end of cycle. To turn off the HI-TEMP
WASH option, press the pad a second time.
The light above the pad will turn off.
