Preparing and Loading Dishes
Energy Options
HI-Temp Wash Option
When HI-TEMP WASH ON option is selected, the
dishwasher heats the water in the main wash to
approximately 140°F (60°C). Wash action will
continue but timer wilt not advance until proper
temperature is reached. The hotter water provided
by this option helps activate dishwasher detergent
to clean food grease and soil from dishes. HI-
TEMP WASH ON option can be used with any
cycle except RINSE HOLD and is not
recommended for use with CHINA.
To turn off option, select HI-TEMP WASH OFF.
Heat Dry Option
HEAT DRY ON option provides faster drying since
the heating element is on during the drying portion
of cycle.
The HEAT DRY option in combination with rinse aid
will give you excellent drying results. The energy to
use HEAT DRY costs pennies per cycle. You may
turn off the HEAT DRY option, however you will have
items in your dish load that will not be dry at the end
of the cycle.
With either option, you may see water vapor
coming from vent during the washing and/or drying
portion of cycle. On some models, the vent is
closed during washing to hold moisture and sound
inside and then opens for drying.
The drying option may be changed at any time
during the cycle and affects only the drying period.
Dish Preparation
It is not necessary to rinse dishes before putting
them into the dishwasher. Just remove large
pieces and quantities of food, bones, pits, etc.
Empty glasses and cups. It may be necessary to
presoak or lightly scour firmly cooked-on or
baked-on foods.
Foods such as mustard, mayonnaise, vinegar,
lemon juice and tomato-based products may
cause discoloration of stainless steel and plastics
if allowed to sit for a long period of time. Unless
the dishwasher is to be operated at once, it is best
to rinse off these food soils.
• Load dishes facing the center of the rack so
that the water spray from the rotating spray
arm can reach soiled surfaces.
• Be sure large items do not block the detergent
dispenser, preventing it from opening during
the wash cycle.
• To be sure an item is dishwasher safe, read
the manufacturer's care instructions.
• If the dishwasher drains into a food disposer,
be sure disposer is completely empty
before dishwasher is started.
• To save energy, wash full loads.
• For best washing results, load correctly and
avoid overloading.
