Cycles
Auto Hot Start:
Auto Hot Start is initiated by the control when it senses water temperature below 80°F. If the water is below
80°F after prewash, the unit will circulate for 1-5 minutes (depending on the cycle selected) and then drain
for 75 seconds. This procedure will repeat up to 4 times or until the water reaches 80°F.
Hot Start Enhancement:
Some models have a Hot Start option which enables or disables the Auto Hot Start.
Added Heat:
When Added Heat Enhancement is selected during Pots & Pans, Light, or China Crystal cycles, the control
will run the heating element and main circulation pump for an extra 15 minutes attempting to reach the
minimum operating temperature.
Heated Dry:
Heated Dry takes 34 minutes for the Normal cycle and 45 minutes for the Sani, Auto, Pots & Pans, and
China Crystal cycles. There is no heated dry for the Rinse cycle. During Heated Dry, the heater cycles at a
rate of 60 seconds on and 51 seconds off.
Cycle Explanations and Exceptions:
• Turbidity response is used during the Sani, Normal, and Auto cycles only.
• Pots & Pans, Light, China Crystal, and Rinse are timed cycles.
• Timed cycles can change depending on the water temperature. If the minimum temperature is not met,
an extended time will be added until the temperature is met or the time expires.
• Partial drain and fill algorithm is used on Normal and Auto cycles only.
• Auto Hot Start may cause the first prewash to repeat up to 4 times.
• Steam enhancement is shown on the cycle chart. Disabling steam will shorten the cycle time.
• If Steam is selected in Normal or Auto cycles, turbidity response will be ignored and cycle will default to
the heavy soil algorithm.
• Drain Overlap is a short period where both the wash and drain pumps run simultaneously as the
circulation cycle ends and draining begins.
• Drain Pause is a short period between the circulation cycle ending and starting the drain.
Turbidity Response
The turbidity response is measured in DC volts. 4-5 VDC will register light soil and a shorter wash cycle, while
0-2 VDC will register heavy soil and a longer wash cycle. Sani wash measures the turbidity response during
the third prewash cycle and adjusts the time based on those measurements. Normal wash measures the
turbidity response during the first prewash and the prewash before the main wash. If a clean response is
measured in the first prewash, the cycle will advance directly to the main wash with no drain or fill. If a clean
response is measured in the prewash before the main wash, the control will shorten the active heater time.

Dishwasher Components
Inner Door Panel (PermaTuf Tub Models)
The inner door panel on the PermaTuf tub models
must be removed to access the control board,
detergent/rinse module, control TCO, tactile switch,
door switch, pocket handle, vent, console, and lens.
To remove the inner door panel:
1. Remove the 8 Phillips-head screws from the
inner door.
2. Disconnect the 2 wires from the detergent/rinse
module.
(Continued next page)
Outer Door Panel (Stainless Steel Tub Models)
The outer door panel on the stainless steel tub
models must be removed to access the control
board, detergent/rinse module, control TCO, tactile
switch, door switch, vent, and lens.
To remove the outer door panel:
1. Remove the two 1/4-in. hex-head screws from
the bottom of the front door panel (one on each
side).
2. Remove the ten T-15 torx screws from the inner
door panel.

Control TCO
The control TCO is one shot with a trip temperature
of 280°F. If the control TCO trips, no voltage will be
supplied to the control or components. Look for
control or wire damage and replace as necessary.
To remove the control TCO:
1. Remove the inner door panel on PermaTuf tub
models or the outer door panel on stainless steel
tub models. (See Inner Door Panel (PermaTuf Tub
Models) orOuter Door Panel (Stainless Steel Tub
Models).)
2. Fold back the vinyl shield that covers the control
board cover.
Caution: The vinyl shield must cover the control
board cover before installing the inner door panel.

Note: The tactile switch buttons are keyed to fit in
the proper place on the silicone pad.
Tactile Switch
The tactile switch includes a silicone pad to protect
the switch from moisture. The buttons and silicone
pad come as an assembly.
To remove the tactile switch:
1. Disconnect the tactile switch wire harness from
the control board. (See Control Board.)
2. Disengage the switch wire harness tie from the

Door Switch Assembly
The door switch assembly on PermaTuf tub models
consists of 2 switches activated by a spring-loaded
plunger. One door switch connects or disconnects
the line (hot) side of 120 VAC. The other switch
connects or disconnects the neutral side of 120 VAC.
On stainless steel tub models, there is only 1 switch
that connects or disconnects the line (hot) side of
120 VAC.
When the door is in the closed position, the door
latch presses and holds down the switch plunger on
the door switch assembly. This action holds the door
firmly against the seal with the contacts of the door
switches closed.
To remove the door switch assembly (PermaTuf
tub models):
1. Disconnect the power supply to the dishwasher.
2. Remove the inner door panel. (See Inner Door
Panel (PermaTuf Tub Models).)
3. Remove the 2 Phillips-head screws from the
door switch and remove the insulator.
Caution: The door switch insulator must be in place
when installing the door switch.
4. Remove the bracket from the door switch.

5. Disconnect the 2 wires connected to each door
switch. (1 switch not shown.)
