When will it finish?
Use the appliance display for the current estimate. Load conditions, sensing, temperature and selected options can move the finish time.
Why the number can move
Dishwashers may pause while heating water, adjust to soil detected in the wash water, or add time for drying and sanitation.
Compare water and energy
Water use varies by program. See the water-use comparison for Normal cycles and how to compare annual energy use.
