First, the dishwasher fills with water covering the filter area. Water is then pumped through the filter and spray arms. Soil particles go down the drain as the water is pumped out and replaced with clean water. The number of water fills will vary with the cycle being used.

Very Important Information—Read Before Operating Your Dishwasher! Normal Operating Sounds This dishwasher does not sound like most dishwashers—IT'S QUIETER. Your Precision Wash System® dishwasher uses energy efficient motors for the wash and drain portions of the cycle you select. Each cycle has a series of water fills and drains for washing and rinsing dishes. As each cycle begins, you may–or may not–hear the drain motor. The next sound you will hear is the splashing water as it enters the tub. Then the lower arm rotates and circulates water. This is followed by a pause and a slightly different sound as the middle arm sprays water. If you listen closely, you will hear the change in sound as the wash action switches from one arm to the other. PLEASE BE ADVISED: If you compare thisdishwasher to previous models, you may besurprised at what you DON'T hear! Getting Started 1. Load dishwasher (See Preparing and LoadingDishes). 2.

Hot water is necessary toactivate dishwasher detergent and melt fatty foodsoils. An automatic sensor will check the incomingwater temperature and, if it is not hot enough, thetimer will be delayed for automatic water heating inthe main wash of all cycles. This happens evenwhen HI-TEMP WASH option has not beenselected. When HI-TEMP WASH is selected, an even higher temperature will be guaranteed tohandle heavier soil loads. 4 Operating Instructions (continued) Cycle Chart Cycle To Select Cycle Water (approx.)

This increase in water temperature helps dishwasher detergent remove food grease and soil from dishes more effectively and aids in drying. HITEMP WASH option can be used with all cycles except UPPER RACK and RINSE ONLY. HITEMP WASH is automatically provided when POTS & PANS cycle is selected. When HI-TEMP WASH option is selected, the light above the pad will come on and remain on until end of cycle. To turn off the HI-TEMP WASH option, press the pad a second time. The light above the pad will turn off. Heat Dry The HEAT DRY option in combination with rinse aid will enhance drying performance. The energy required to use the HEAT DRY option costs pennies per cycle. You may choose not to select the HEAT DRY option; however you will have items in your dish load that will not be completely dry at the end of the cycle. You may see water vapor coming from the vent during the drying portion of cycle. The vent is closed during washing to hold moisture and sound inside. The vent opens during the last few minutes of the final rinse and remains open for drying. The drying option may be changed at any time during the cycle and affects only the drying period.
