Energy Options
Hot Dry Option
HOT DRY option provides faster drying since
the heating element is on during the drying
portion of the cycle.
Cool
Dry Option
COOL DRY option saves electricity since the
heating element is off during the drying portion
of the cycle. To speed drying process, open the
door slightly after the cycle is complete. Some
water droplets may remain on door and tub
and in areas where dishes touch silverware
basket and rack.
With either option, you may see water vapor
coming from vent during the washing and/or
drying portion of cycle. On some models, the
vent is closed during washing to hold moisture
and sound inside and then opens for drying.
The drying option may be changed at any time
during the cycle and affects only the drying
period.
