START/RESET

pad once to begin the cycle. Water begins to fill the dishwasher, and approximately 60

seconds later the wash action begins. Touching the 

START/RESET

pad a second time will cancel the

cycle and cause the water to drain out. This will take approximately 2 minutes.

NOTE: 

The dishwasher remembers your last cycle so you don’t have to reprogram each time. When 

the dishwasher door is fully closed, the control panel lights will display the last settings you selected. 

If you don’t want to change any of the settings, simply touch the 

START/RESET 

pad once to begin 

the cycle.

If the door is closed, the indicator lights will turn off if the 

START/RESET

pad is not pressed within two

minutes. To activate the display, open and close the door or touch any pad.

Also, if a power failure occurs,

NORMAL
