Energy Options

The toggle switch provided to choose between

heat dry and air dry affects heater operation

but only during the drying portion of the cycle.

The selection may be made at any time prior

to or during the cycle. It affects only the

portion of the cycle’s drying that follows the

selection. With either option, you may see

water vapor coming from the vent near the top

of the door - this is normal.

Heat Dry Option

Selecting the Heat Dry option will cause the

heating element to be on during the drying

portion of the cycle.

The Heat Dry option in combination with rinse

aid will improve drying results. The energy

to use Heat Dry is greater than if Air Dry is

selected but costs just pennies per cycle.

Turning off the Heat Dry option, will result in

more of the dish load being wet at the end of

the cycle.

Air Dry Option

Selecting the Air Dry option reduces energy

use and lowers costs by preventing the heating

element from coming on during the drying

portion of the cycle.

With this option drying may be improved by

using rinse aid and opening the door slightly

immediately after the cycle is complete.

OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS

Using the Timer

The timer advances to complete the portion

of the cycle between the dial position and

OFF. Started at Heavy Wash it will run through

Heavy, Normal and Dry. Set at Normal Wash it

will run Normal and Dry, and so on.

• It is best to have the door unlatched while

setting the timer.

• The timer dial should always be advanced

in the clockwise direction.

• 4 positions are available for use, the OFF

position and the start positions for Heavy

Wash, Normal Wash and Drying.

• Other stops on the dial path are to allow

the unit functions to be quickly checked

during production but are of no practical

use for washing or drying dishes in the

home.

• The “Water Heating” text is to mark the

position where the dial may pause while

temperature is increased to make the wash

effective - it is not a location for starting

any cycle.

• The Heavy and Normal cycles start with a

drain, then a ﬁ ll, then spraying - you may

not be able to hear that it has started at

ﬁ rst.
