"Sanitized"
Light
When the "Sanitized" light appears on the control panel, it means that the dishware and
kitchenware that were just washed have been sanitized according to the requirements of
the National Sanitation Foundation (NSF). For more information
on NSF certification,
go to
the Wash Cycle Information
section of this manual.
NOTE: If your household water supply is too hot, your dishwasher's heating time may be
reduced and the "Sanitized" light may not illuminate. Your Dishwasher Installation Manual
has information
on the recommended temperature
for your household hot water supply.

If the Extra Tall Item Sprinkler was installed, return the dishwasher to its normal condition
