SELECTTHE CYCLE
IJLl
POWER SCRUB’ cycle is designed to remove DRIED­ON and BAKED-ON soils. These soils will be removed from utensils that are in good condition if you follow
loading and operating instructions carefully. It is es­pecially important to load items with heavy, DRIED-ON
or BAKED-ON soils such as pots, pans and casseroles, open end down in the lowerrack facing directly toward the lowerwash arm. In this position theitems will receive the most vigorous wash action for maximum soil removal. As you would expect, severely BURNED-ON soils occa-
sionally may not be completely removed, especially if the
surfaceof the utensil is etched,pitted or otherwisein poor ~ condition. After washing itemsof this type, any remaining soils shouldbe removed by hand. Discoloration of utensils
raused by overheating during cooking cannot be removed by thedishwasher.
1 NORMAL SOIL cycle is for most loads of everyday
c~ishes,slasses and cookware with light to heavy soils.

nects thedrying heater and allows the dishes to dry by their own heat over time. ‘I’his option is best used when the dishes are washed at night and can stay in $hedish­washer until the next morning. Naturaldrying time will be reduced if you prop open the dishwasher door about threeinches at the top after the cycle is complete.
