Dishwasher EfficiencyTips
Hot water dissolves and activates the dishweshing detergent.
Hot water also dissolves grease on dishes and helps glasses dry
spot-free. For best dishweshing results, water should be 120"F
(49_C) as it enters the dishwasher. Loads may not wash as well if
the water temperature is tee low. Water that is tee hot can make
some soils harder to remove and cause certain detergent
ingredients not to function. If your water heater is located far from
the dishwasher, it may be necessary to run the hot water at the
faucet closest to the dishwasher to minimize the amount of cold
water in the water line.
To check water temperature
1. Run hot water at the faucet closest to your dishwasher for at
least 1 minute.
2. Place a candy or meat therrnometer in a glass measuring
cup.
& Check the temperature on the thermometer es the water is
running into the cup.
• To save water, energy and time, do not rinse dishes before
putting them into the dishwasher.
Use a low energy, quick, or short cycle whenever possible.
These cycles use less hot water and energy than a normal
cycle.
Use a delay feature (on some models) to run your dishwasher
during off-peak hours. Local utilities recommend avoiding
heavy usage of energy at certain times of day.
During the summer, run your dishwasher at night. This
reduces daytime heat buildup in the kitchen.
Use the energy-saving dry option whenever possible. Allow
longer drying times (overnight) when using these options. Use
a rinse aid to improve drying.
Use cycles or options that add extra heat to the wash or rinse
portion of the cycle only when needed.
Run your dishwasher with full loads. Run a rinse cycle after
meals until the dishwasher is full.
If your home is equipped with a water softener, you may want
to avoid starting the dishwasher during the regeneration of
the softener, as this may contribute to poor wash
performance.

of time, the Start button memory will default to the Normal
cycle with heated drying.
• If you do not run the dishwasher daily, close the door to
maintain memory.
A "e" shows what steps are in each cycle.
Temperatures indicate where extra heat is added.
Water usage is shown in U.S. gallees_litere.
Cycle time includes dry time. An asterisk ( * ) by the cycle time
indicates the cycle time might be longer depending on the
temperature of the water entering the dishwasher. The cooler the
water, the longer the cycle time. If the water is already hot
enough, the cycle time will be as shown.
