Provides a beautiful exterior appearance while keeping
you informed of the cycle status. Electronic controls ensure
precise cleaning for safe dish care.
Premium LoDecibel Quiet System
Ensures you can talk on the phone or listen to the TV or
the radio in your kitchen while the dishwasher is running.
A combination of sound reducing material and the Direct
Drive Motor ensures low noise.
SenseClean System
Measures turbidity in the water with an LED light during the
first rinse. Then water and time is adjusted during the second
cycle based on the need for more or less cleaning. This
provides precise cleaning and water and energy efficiency.
Half Load Cleaning
Allows for cleaning in the upper or the lower racks for
smaller loads. This feature conserves water and electricity.
Multi-Level Water Direction
Sprays water and detergent in five directions for even and
thorough cleaning
.
Hybrid Drying System
Uses a fan and condensation drying. The benefit is faster
drying, reduced spotting and better energy efficiency.
Slim Direct Drive Motor
An innovative system that enables a clean transfer of energy
that is highly reliable, durable, efficient and quiet. The
compact size allows for more usable space in the tub.
