Select Options

The light by the selected button will be lit to indicate which Option has been selected.

Normal

Temp

This option is for normally soiled dishes, optimizes wash performance while conserving energy.

Boost This option increases the temperature to help clean heavily soiled dishes and will increase the

cycle time by 20 to 50 minutes. Option may be turned On or Off during the wash cycle. This

option will also improve dry performance on the Normal cycle.

Steam-Sani,

Presoak-

Sani, or

Sanitize

This option raises the water temperature in the final rinse to sanitize your dishware but may

increase cycle time by 60 minutes. The cycle length will vary depending on the temperature of

your inlet water.

NOTE: This option is monitored for sanitization requirements. If the cycle is interrupted during

or after the main wash portion or if the incoming water temperature is so low that adequate

water heating cannot be achieved, the sanitizing conditions may not be met. In these cases, the

Sanitized or Cycle Sanitized light will not illuminate at the end of the cycle. Utilizing this option

will modify the cycle to meet the requirements of Section 6, of the NSF 184 Standard for soil

removal and sanitization efficacy.

NOTE: Certified residential dishwashers are not intended for licensed food establishments.

Dry Boost

Off

Shuts off the drying option. Dishes air dry naturally and energy is saved. Open the dishwasher

door to speed drying.

Dry Boost

Normal

Turns on the option for faster drying. This option may add up to 64 minutes to the cycle time.

On models with the hidden heater feature, this option boosts the temperature of the dishwasher

during the final rinse portion of the cycle then utilizes a fan to circulate air to dry the dishes. This

very efficient fan may run for an additional 90 minutes after the cycle is complete to maximize

drying performance. Fan operation will end if the door is opened during this 90 minute period.

This option is not available with the Rinse cycle.

Dry Boost

High (on

some

models)

This option can be selected by pressing the Dry Boost pad twice to illuminate the High light. It

will add additional time to your drying option, further enhancing the dishwasher’s performance

for difficult to dry items.

Wash

Zones

(on some

models)

Selecting either the Upper or Lower Wash Zones will target dishwashing of just one rack. This

will shorten the cycle time and conserve energy. This option should be used when dishes are

placed in only one rack.

Bottle Jets

(on some

models)

This option increases the time that the bottle jets are on and may add up to 23 minutes to the

cycle time. Use this to wash difficult to clean, dishwasher safe baby bottles, sport bottles, tall

coffee cups, etc. See use recommendations in the

Loading section.

Delay

Hours

Delays the start of a wash cycle up to 8 to 12 hours depending on model. Press Delay Hours,

to select the number of hours, then press Start one time and close door to begin countdown.

The cycle will start once allotted time has expired.

Lock

Controls

You can lock the controls to prevent selections from being made. You can also lock the

controls after you have started a cycle to prevent cycle changes. For example, children cannot

accidentally start the dishwasher by pressing buttons with this option selected.

To LOCK/UNLOCK the dishwasher control, depending on the model, press and hold the Dry

Boost pad, or the Steam-Sani/Presoak-Sani/Sanitize pads at the same time, for 3 seconds.

The Lock Controls light will turn on to indicate the control is locked and will turn off to indicate

the control is unlocked.

The dishwasher does not heat the water anymore, why is that? Verified

Do I need to rinse my dishes before putting them in the dishwasher? Verified

Rinsing the dishes is not necessary, but you do need to remove any large, hard and fat leftovers. These could clog the drain over time.

This was helpful (1291) Read more

Can I open the dishwasher while it is running? Verified

Most dishwashers are equipped with a water stop, making the program stop immediately when the door is opened and meaning no water will come out. With some models this can cause problems over time. With built-in dishwashers it is possible that frequently opening the dishwasher while running may cause water damage to surrounging cabinets because of the steam that is released.

Should I open the dishwasher after it finished running to have the dishes dry quicker? Verified

This depends on the type of dishwasher and the location of the dishwasher. Some dishwashers are equipped with a feature that dries the dishes after the washing program. In that case opening the dishwasher will have no added value. With built-in dishwashers it is possible that frequently opening the dishwasher while running may cause water damage to surrounging cabinets because of the steam that is released.

After the dishwaser has finished its cycle, the plastic dishes are still wet but the rest isn't. Why is that? Verified

Plastic is a bad conductor of heat, allowing the products to cool down quickly. The moisture that remains on it then evaporates far less than for example on ceramics or metal.

Can I connect a dishwasher to an extension cord? Verified

Appliances that require large amounts of power, like a dishwasher, can not be connected to all extension cords. See what the power usage of the dishwasher is, which is indicated in Watt, and check if the extension cord cn handle this. There are extension cords with thicker cables that are made to handle larger appliances.

Is it a problem to have scratches on the metal on the inside of the dishwasher? Verified

The inside of most dishwashers is made of stainless steel and are not affected by scratches.

This was helpful (675) Read more

Can I put pans with Teflon in the dishwasher? Verified

Yes, you can. However, the pan will wear faster than when it is cleaned by hand. When cleaning a pan with Teflon by hand, never use a scourer but use a soft sponge or cloth.

This was helpful (673) Read more

Can I put wooden objects such as spatulas and cutting boards in the dishwasher? Verified

No. Wooden objects can get damaged or warped in a dishwasher. Also, the wood fibres that come free might damage the dishwasher. Wooden cutting boards are often made with glue that can come loose after being in the dishwasher several times.

Can my GE appliance also run on a generator? Verified

In general this is possible, but always check this with the manufacturer of your generator. Also be aware that some appliances require a lot of power when starting up (ie: refrigerators, freezers and air conditioners). It's also a good idea to use a generator that is voltage regulated and surge protected. When in doubt you should contact the manufacturer.
