The display window shows the programs, options, remaining program time and fault codes. It also allows you to access the program menus
and customize the wash programs. If you select Delayed Start, the window will display the number of hours selected. When you press Start/
Stop, the countdown time displays.
Remaining program time – The remaining program time is calculated by the time it took the program to run last time. (Note: The first time
you run a program, the display will display 1:00.) As the program progresses, the time remaining displays the hour and minutes (e.g., 1:02,
which means one hour and two minutes.)
Auto Wash
The dishwasher has sensors that detect the level of soil on the
dishes and adjust the water consumption and temperature
accordingly. You cannot adjust the temperature or drying time with
this program. “The Normal Wash
program is used
for energy testing
and should be
used for normal or
lightly soiled
loads. When
washing dishes
that are more
heavily soiled, use
a longer program
with higher
temperatures such
as Heavy Wash or
Auto wash.”

DISHWASHING DETERGENT AND RINSE AID
We recommend that you use only unscented, granular automatic dishwashing detergent. Generally, one tablespoon of detergent is needed
for a normal wash load. More heavily soiled items, however, may need more detergent. (See page 5.) In any case, you should never use
more than three tablespoons of detergent.
Using liquid rinse aid prevents water spots from forming on dishes and improves drying by allowing water to “sheet” off the dishes. The rinse
aid is released during the final rinse. For information on how to fill the rinse aid dispenser and control the amount released, refer to page
6 in your Use and Care Guide. NOTE: If you use a dishwashing detergent with a rinse aid additive, you should not fill the rinse aid
dispenser.
