HOW TO OPERATE YOUR DISHWASHER
Your dishwasher is designed to give maximum
performance on loads with normal and heavy soils.
You may find that many of your dishes have lighter
soils than normal, if this is the case you can save
water and energy by selecting a cycle other than
NORMAL WASH.
NOTE: The lights over the Cycle and Energy Option
pads come ON to indicate the cycle/option that has
been selected. These Cycle and Option Indicator
lights remain on while the door is latched.
If dishwasher drains into a food waste disposal,
operate the disposal until it is empty before starting
dishwasher.
