Turn the cycle control knob to the desired cycle. If the door is
latched, you will hear the cycles start and stop as the cycle
control knob passes each cycle mark. This is normal and does
not hurt the dishwasher. If you prefer, you can set the cycle
control knob with the door unlatched.

Canceling a Cycle
You can cancel a cycle at any time.
1. Turn the cycle control knob slowly clockwise until you hear
water draining. Let the dishwasher drain completely.
2. Open the door.
3. Turn the cycle control knob to Off.
Changing a Cycle or Setting
You can change a cycle anytime during a cycle.
1. Lift the door latch to stop the cycle.
2. Turn the cycle control knob clockwise.
3. Check the detergent dispensers. They must be filled properly
for the new cycle.
NOTE: Turning the cycle control knob can cause the covered
detergent dispenser section to open and release the
detergent. Check the covered section if the cycle uses
detergent in both sections.
4. Close the door firmly until it latches. The dishwasher starts a
new cycle.
Adding Items During a Cycle
You can add an item anytime before the main wash starts, or the
cycle control knob reaches Normal Wash.
1. Lift up the door latch to stop the cycle. Wait for the spraying
action to stop before opening the door.
2. Open the door and add the item.
3. Close the door, but do not latch it. Wait 30 seconds for the air
in the dishwasher to warm up. This reduces the amount of
moisture escaping from the vent when restarting a cycle.
4. Close the door firmly until it latches. The dishwasher resumes
the cycle.
