STEP 3
Add Rinse Aid
■
Your dishwasher is designed to use rinse aid for good drying
performance. Without rinse aid, your dishes and dishwasher
interior will have excessive moisture. The Heat Dry option will
not perform as well without rinse aid.
■
Rinse aid keeps water from forming droplets that
can dry as spots or streaks. They also improve drying
by allowing water to drainoff of the dishes after the
final rinse.
■
Check the rinse aid indicator. Add rinse aid
when indicator drops to “Add” level.
■
To add rinse aid, turn the dispenser cap 1/4 turn
counterclockwise and lift off. Pour rinse aid into
the opening until the indicator level is at “Full.”
Replace the dispenser cap and turn to “Lock.”
Make sure cap is fully locked.Close the
dispenser by pushing down gently on the lid.
NOTE: For most water conditions, the factory
setting will give good results.
■
Check water hardness level to ensure there are no rings or
spots on your dishware before adding rinse aid or adjusting
the factory setting.
■
If you have hard water or notice rings or spots, try
a higher setting.
Turn the arrow adjuster inside the
dispenser by either using your fingers
or inserting a flat-blade screwdriver into
the center of the arrow and turning.
STEP 4
Select a Cycle
Efficient dishwashers run longer to save water and energy, just
as driving a car slower saves gas. Cycle times may increase or
decrease, depending on selections. Estimated cycle times after
calibration are listed in the “Cycle and Option Descriptions”
chart in the following section. Select the desired cycle by
pressing the Cycles keypad. Each time you press the Cycles
keypad, it will advance to the next available cycle.
Select Options
See the “Cycle and Option Descriptions” chart in the
following section.
You can customize the cycles by selecting the options
desired and pressing the Start/Resume keypad.
STEP 5
Start or Resume a Cycle
■
If needed, run hot water at the sink nearest your dishwasher
until the water is hot. Turn off water.
■
For best dishwashing results, water should be 120ºF (49ºC)
as it enters the dishwasher.
■
Select the wash cycle and options desired.
To repeat the same cycle and options used
previously, press the START/RESUME
keypad twice. Within 4 seconds of pressing
Start/Resume, you must firmly push the
door closed. If the door is not closed within
4 seconds, the Start/Resume LED will flash
and the cycle will not start.
■
You can add an item at the beginning of the cycle. Open the
door slowly and add the item. Press the START/RESUME
keypad and close the door firmly within 4 seconds. If the
door has been open more than 4 seconds, the LED will flash
and the dishwasher will not resume unless you press Start/
Resume again.
IMPORTANT: If the door has been opened after starting a cycle
(even during the Delay Hours option), Start/Resume must be
pressed again.
