Saving Energy

Saving energy is important and helps you save money. This section gives you tips on the
best ways to save energy with your dishwasher.

Loading tips

Wash full loads. Running a half-filled
dishwasher uses the same amount of
electricity and hot water as a fully loaded
machine.
Load correctly for best washing results.
Incorrect loading may cause poor wash-
ing and the need to rewash all or part of
a load.
Cycle and option tips
Use the Low Energy/China cycle whenever
possible. The cycle uses less hot water
and energy than the Normal cycle.
Use 4 Hour Delay Start to run your dish-
washer during off-peak hours. Local
utilities recommend avoiding heavy
usage of energy at certain times of day.
Do not use the High Temp Wash option if
it is not needed. When this option is off,
if water entering the dishwasher is lower
than 140°F (60°C), the cycle does not take
additional time to heat water during the
main wash. In some cases, loads may not
dry as well when using the High Temp
Wash option.
NOTE:
Loads may not wash or dry as well
if the water temperature is too low. For
best dishwashing results, water must be
at least 120°F (49°C) as it enters the
dishwasher.
Use the Air Dry option whenever possible.
Allow longer drying times (overnight). Use
a rinse agent to improve drying.

Do not prerinse normally soiled dishes.
Select the correct cycle for the load
and use the recommended amount
of detergent.
To check water temperature:
1.
Run the hot water at the faucet closest
to your dishwasher. Let the
water run for at least 1 minute.
2.
Hold a candy or meat thermometer in the
running stream of water. If
water temperature at the
faucet is below 120°F (49°C),
have a qualified person raise
the water heater's thermostat
setting.
