Cycle Selections

The light above the pad will be 

ON

to indicate which 

CYCLE SELECTION 

has

been selected.

NORMAL

For loads of everyday dishes, glasses and cookware with
medium soils. 

NOTE:

Many dishes have lighter soil than 

normal. Choosing a cycle other than 

NORMAL 

will save 

energy and water.

POT SCRUBBER

For heavily soiled dishes or cookware with dried-on or 
baked-on soils. Everyday dishes may be included. This 
cycle will not remove burned-on foods.

CHINA CRYSTAL

For lightly soiled china and crystal. 

LIGHT WASH

For dishes with light soils. 

RINSE & HOLD

For rinsing partial loads that will be washed later.  
Do not use detergent with this cycle.

GLASSES

For loads of glassware. Especially good to reduce spotting and 
filming.
