4.2 Startup
The light above the selected
POWER/CYCLE SELECT key will
begin to flash, showing that the tank
is filling and the water is heating to
the correct temperature.
The time required for filling and preheating
will vary based on the temperature of the
incoming water supply. For incoming water
at 140°F/60°C, the machine may need up to
15 minutes to fill and heat to the correct wash
temperature. The default wash temperature
is several degrees above 150°F/66°C for
efficient operation.
Press any of the three POWER/CYCLE
SELECT keys to turn on the dishwasher.
Normal cycle
for typically soiled
items
Extended cycle
for items with
greater soiling
Heavy cycle
for very heavily soiled
items
If desired, you can watch the WASH TANK
TEMPERATURE and FINAL RINSE TEM-
PERATURE displays as they rise. This gives
an indication of the amount of time left be-
fore the dishwasher can be operated.

4.3 Loading
The loading guidelines shown here will lead
to faster, more efficient cleaning of your ware.
Load hollow or concave dishware (glasses,
large bowls, etc.) upside-down and at an
angle. This allows water to drain more quickly,
preventing stains.
For greater efficiency in loading cutlery, you
can use cutlery holders. When loading them:
•
Do not overload the holders.
•
Always load knives, forks and
spoons with the handle
DOWN.
•
Do not load identical ware
into any given holder.
Instead, load an assortment
of knives, forks and spoons
into each holder. Identical
ware is often too closely
spaced for effective cleaning.
Do not stack items in the dishwasher. Stacked
items require longer or multiple cleaning
cycles because the wash water cannot reach
the food residue as effectively. It is more
efficient to load the dishwasher with fewer
items and run multiple, shorter cycle times.
Load plates, soup bowls, etc. at an angle with
the inside face pointing up. Ensure that water
cannot pool in the bottom of bowls.
When the tank is full and the water
has been heated to the correct
temperature, the light above the
selected POWER/CYCLE SELECT
key will stop flashing. The machine
is now ready for operation.
Check the level of the external detergent and
rinse additive dispensers. If necessary,
replace or refill the dispensers.
