Canceling a Cycle

You can cancel a cycle at any time.

1.

Turn the Cycle Control knob slowly clockwise until you hear 
water draining. Let the dishwasher drain completely.

2.

Open the door.

3.

Turn the Cycle Control knob to OFF.

Changing a Cycle or Setting

If your dishwasher has more than one wash cycle, you can 
change a cycle anytime during a cycle.

1.

Lift the door latch to stop the cycle.

2.

Turn the Cycle Control knob clockwise.

3.

Check the detergent dispensers. They must be filled properly 
for the new cycle.

NOTE:

 Turning the Cycle Control knob can cause the covered 

Detergent Dispenser section to open and release the 
detergent. Check the covered section if the cycle uses 
detergent in both sections.

4.

Close the door firmly until it latches. The dishwasher starts a 
new cycle.

Adding Items During a Cycle

You can add an item anytime before the main wash starts, or the 
Cycle Control knob reaches Light Wash. 

1.

Lift up the door latch to stop the cycle. Wait for the spraying 
action to stop before opening the door.

2.

Open the door and add the item.

3.

Close the door, but do not latch it. Wait 30 seconds for the air 
in the dishwasher to warm up. This reduces the amount of 
moisture escaping from the vent when restarting a cycle.

4.

Close the door firmly until it latches. The dishwasher resumes 
the cycle.

Option Selections

You can change an option anytime before the selected option 
begins. For example, you can press an unheated drying option 
any time before drying begins.

Heated Dry

Select this option to dry dishes with heated air. For best drying 
results, use a liquid rinse aid and heated drying.

NOTE:

 Heated Dry is an option with all cycles except Rinse & 

Hold.

No Heat Dry

Select this energy-saving option to dry without heat. No Heat 
drying is useful when loads contain plastic dinnerware that may 
be sensitive to high temperatures.

The dishes take longer to dry and some spotting can occur. For 
best drying, use a liquid rinse aid. Some items (such as plastics) 
may need towel drying. 

IMPORTANT: 

Operate your dishwasher only when you are at home.

If your home is equipped with a water softener, do not start 
the dishwasher during the regeneration of the softener.

Drying System

During drying, you can see steam escaping through the vent at 
the upper left corner of the door. This is normal as the heat dries 
your dishes.

IMPORTANT:

 The vapor is hot. Do not touch the vent 

during drying.

Overfill Protection Float

The overfill protection float (in the front right corner of the 
dishwasher tub) keeps the dishwasher from overfilling. It must be 
in place for the dishwasher to operate. 

Check under the float for objects that may keep the protector 
from moving up or down.
