Starting Your Dishwasher
This section tells you how to start or stop your dishwasher. Refer to it for quick reference.
Starting a wash cycle
1. Load the dishwasher. See pages 7-9.
2. Spin the spray arm. H should turn freely.
3. Add detergent. See page 10.
4. Add rinse agent, if needed. See page 11.
5. Close door firmly until it latches.
6. Run hot water at the sink nearest the
dishwasher until water is hot.
Turn water off. (See page 20.)
7. Select a drying option. (See page 13.)
For models with buttons, the
indicator above the button will
show red when the option has
been selected. For inodels
with rocker switches, the
switch irxlicates which option has been
selected.
NOTE: Select AIR DRY for
the RINSE & HOLD cycle. For
Series 840 nfKxlels, push a
Cycle button for the desired
cycle. NORMAL WASH,
LIGHT WASH, and RINSE & HOLD
cycles share the same button. The Cycle
Control Knob determines which cycle
operates. For Series 830 nxxlels, the
HEAT DRY option is automatically
selected with the POTS & PANS cycle.
8. Turn the Cycle Control Knob clockwise to
^ the desired cycle. You will
feel a definite “stop" at each
cycle mark. The dishwasher
automatically starts the cycle
you select.
NOTE: If the door is latched, you will hear
the cycles start and stop as the control
knob passes each cycle mark. This is
normal and does rv3t hurt the dishwasher.
If you prefer, you can set the Cycle
Control Knob with the door unlatched.

during a cycle. All you have to do is:
• Open the door siightly. Wait for any filling
or spraying action to stop before opening
the door all the way. Clo^ the door to
continue the cycle.
OR

clockwise until you hear water draining. Let
the dishwasher drain completely. Then
