To set a wash cycle:

  2. Touch Start and close the door within 4 seconds.
    • Close Door appears on display, along with a timer that counts down from 4.
    • If a cycle is selected without starting the unit, after a period of time the selection will time out.
    • The control display will revert to the last cycle run.

To incorporate a cycle option to the wash cycle, touch Options before touching Start. Refer to Cove Dishwasher Cycle Options for instructions and a list of options. To change the cycle after touching Start, touch Cancel.

To interrupt a cycle:

  1. Open the door.
  2. To restart the cycle, touch Start and close the door within 4 seconds.

To cancel a cycle:

  1. Open the door.
  2. Touch Cancel and follow the instructions on the display.

To delay a cycle:

  • Delay Cycle is an option available for most wash cycles. Refer to the table below for which cycles can be started with a delay.
  • For information on selecting Delay Cycle or other options, refer to Cove Dishwasher Cycle Options.

Answer:

Cove recommends using the Auto or Normal cycles for most wash cycles. For heavy soil or stuck on soil, Heavy cycle is best.

*Includes dry time. **Powdered detergent. ***Shortened cycle time impacts drying performance.

Powdered detergent is recommended. If using liquid detergent:

  • For cycles longer than an hour, such as Normal, Heavy, or Pot and Pans, fill the detergent cup full.
  • For cycles less than an hour, such as Quick, fill the detergent cup about half full.

All-in-one pods may provide too much detergent for lighter cycles.
