What is the Speed 60 cycle used for?
This faster program is intended for dishes that need to be cleaned sooner and are not heavily soiled.
It shortens or simplifies portions of the standard wash sequence. Faster does not always mean lower water or energy use, because the appliance may heat water more aggressively to finish sooner.
Choose another cycle for: Dried-on food, baked-on cookware and very full or tightly packed loads.
What this means for your load
The documentation lists 60 minutes for this program under its stated conditions.
Published water use: 4.0 gal. This figure applies to the documented test conditions and may be a range when the appliance senses the load.
Why the time may change: Extra drying, sanitation or high-temperature options can erase part of the time saving.

Estimated energy and local cost
This range is calculated from the documented cycle characteristics and appliance type. It is deliberately shown as a range because load conditions, temperature selections, sensors and options change consumption.
