Operating Your Dishwasher!
Normal Operating
Sounds
This dishwasher does not sound like most
dishwashers--IT'S QUIETER.
Your Precision Direct 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 this
dishwasher to previous models, you may be
surprised at what you DON'T heart

Wash Cycle Selections
Note: Cycle times are approximate and will vary
with options selected. Hot water is necessary to
activate dishwasher detergent and melt fatty food
soils. An automatic sensor will check the incoming
water temperature and, if it is not hot enough, the
timer will be delayed for automatic water heating in
the main wash of all cycles. This happens even
when HI-TEMP WASH option has not been
selected. When HI-TEMP WASH is selected, an
even higher temperature will be guaranteed to
handle heavier soil loads.
