Dishwasher - Control Lock Out Feature
On many of our dishwashers, there is a Control Lock feature to prevent a person from interrupting a cycle already in progress or beginning a cycle by accident. For example, children cannot accidentally start the dishwasher by pressing pads when this option is selected. The only dishwasher cycle not affected by the child lockout feature is the DELAY START option.
Activating the Control Lock Feature
- Some models have a designated Lock pad. Press the Lock pad twice within three seconds to activate the feature. Some models require you to press and hold the Cycle pad, or the Dry/Dry Boost and Steam pads simultaneously for 3 seconds to activate the feature. Consult the Owner's Manual for your specific model for instructions on using this feature.
- This may be done before a cycle to prevent it from starting or during a cycle to prevent it from being interrupted.
De-activating the Control Lock Feature
- Press the Lock pad twice within three seconds.
- Press and hold the Cycle pad, or the Dry/Dry Boost and Steam pads simultaneously for 3 seconds.
Note: The Lock Controls light will turn on to indicate the control is locked and will turn off to indicate the control is unlocked.
