Remote Enable

Remote Enable mode allows you to start your dishwasher 

remotely from the Whirlpool

®

 app.

After loading the dishwasher and selecting your cycle settings, 

press and hold DOWNLOAD & GO for 3 seconds. The Remote 

Enable icon will be solidly lit.
When a remote start command is received from the app, the 

dishwasher will start the cycle. The Remote Enable icon will 

remain lit.

NOTE:

 If no Wi-Fi connection is available, the Remote Enable  

will not be set and the Wireless icon will blink for 2 seconds,  

then go out.

HELPFUL TIP:

 Make sure that your dishwasher door remains 

closed and the cycle is not changed until you start the cycle. 

Opening the door after a Remote Enable has been set will  

cancel the Remote Enable. The Remote Enable will need to  

be reinitiated.

Follow Cycle Progress

Follow Cycle Progress lets you remotely monitor your dishwasher 

and anticipate when it will finish the current cycle. Open the app 

and select DISHWASHER. The cycle progress is displayed in  

the app.

Select or Deselect Push Notifications

Push notifications let you choose which events will be announced 

with a text message. Open the app and select DISHWASHER, 

then open PREFERENCES. Turn on the push notifications you 

want to receive.

Download a Specialty Cycle or My Cycle

The Download & Go™ feature lets you select a Specialty cycle 

or you can design a My Cycle on the Whirlpool

®

 app and send it 

to your dishwasher. When the dishwasher receives the cycle, the 

Download & Go LED lights up for several minutes to indicate the 

cycle has been received. When you want to use this cycle, press 

DOWNLOAD & GO to select the cycle, just as you would do for 

any other cycle. Press the Start/Resume keypad and close the 

door within 4 seconds to start the cycle.

HELPFUL TIP:

 The cycle will be remembered for future use until  

a different cycle is downloaded to the dishwasher.

NOTE:

 If Download & Go is pressed without a cycle ready for 

selection, the LED will blink and you will hear an “invalid key 

press” sound (if key activation sounds are turned on). When a 

remote start command is received from the app, the dishwasher 

will start the cycle. The Remote Enable icon will remain lit.

Enable Quiet Mode

Enable Quiet mode lets you remotely silence the on-dishwasher 

tones such as the end-of-cycle signal. Open the app and select 

QUIET MODE.

Issue Alerts

Issue Alerts lets you know by text message if something needs 

your attention and provides guidance about what to do. You 

may turn off Issue Alerts from the app by going to the Appliance 

Details page, choosing the Preferences option, and toggle off all 

notifications, and click save in the top right corner.

Enable Kosher Consumer Friendly Mode

The Kosher Consumer Friendly mode lets you automatically 

configure the dishwasher for observance of the Sabbath. Open 

the app, select DISHWASHER, and then turn on SABBATH mode. 

The dishwasher will continue to operate in Sabbath mode at the 

appointed time every week until Sabbath mode is turned off.

Smart Delay

(Opt-in through Whirlpool

®

 app and when  

supported by your local utility)

During times of peak electrical rates (if you have opted in), you 

may see the Smart Delay icon. When this occurs, your dishwasher 

will delay according to your opt-in choices to help alleviate peak 

power demands on the local utility. The dishwasher will start up 

automatically when the peak power demand has decreased. You 

may override Smart Delay through the app.
