Control Settings

Cycles

NORMAL WASH

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 WASH 

will save energy and water.

POTS PANS

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.

SHORT WASH

For quickly washing loads of everyday dishes with 
medium soils that have not dried on, such as loads 
consisting mostly of glasses.

CHINA CRYSTAL

For lightly soiled china and crystal. Water is aerated 
for a gentle wash.

Latch the door.

NOTE:

The lights over the pads (on some models)

come 

ON

when pressed, to indicate the cycle/option

that has been selected. Press pad firmly until light
comes on. These lights remain on while the door is
latched.
