 If it's not in engish I won't be able to help you. Do the letters on the dial correspond with letters associated with some of the buttons? A is probably Pots & Pans. Heated prewash, rinse, heated main wash, rinse, and final rinse that's also heated. Normal is prewash, wash, and 2 rinses. Light/china is wash and two rinses. If there's a water heat button, that will raise the water temperature of the main wash and final rinse. Is this the type of information you are asking for? | ||

I'm attaching pictures of the dial and buttons. I'm at a loss on the dial letters. We think the buttons are pots and pans and regular wash (from the left). Not sure about D and then the last two may be drying? We'd like to know which settings to use.

And the dial..so the letters above the buttons have something to do with those on the dial?

A is Pots & Pans, B is Normal, C is Light/China, and D is quick rinse or rinse & hold. I believe the options are heated dry and cool dry. But there could be a slight variation. chaud could also mean a water heat option for main wash and final rinse and econo could mean water heat option is cancelled as well as heated dry.
All cycles are like I described above. Quick rinse or rinse and hold (D) is just the last rinse or the two rinses after the main wash. this is a very good performing machine. Warm/Tiede is plate warm cycle. | ||

Thanks! You rock! We paid $25 for it and if it works as well as hubby thinks it might then he'll be happy. Sounds like a freight train, but we can live with that. | ||

I had this dishwaher 10 years ago in my first condo. Yes, it is noisy when it fills and starts to wash at the same time. I could never figure out why it was made like that? Once filled it quiets down quite a bit.
If you start the dishwasher on 'A' it is a wash,rinse,wash,rinse,rinse. The first and second wash is heated and the final rinse. If you have 'B' pushed, only the final rinse is heated. To have a shorter wash with heated water, you could push'A' and advance it to 'B' or 'C'. To use to he 'rinse only', advance to 'D' and push econo dry to shut off the heated dry. I think only the 'A' cycle could be delayed? | ||

I belive if you have 'D' pushed, it shuts off the heated rinse and dry.
You could have 'D' pushed and start the dishwasher on 'B' or 'C' you would not have a final heated rinse. I believe I used to do that to get rid of prep dishes quickly. Push 'D' and advance the dishwasher to 'C'. You would get a 5 minute wash, 3 minute rinse and a 5 minute final rinse. It was a quick cycle and everything would be clean. I could be wrong, my dishwasher had a signal that glowed when the water was heating. Having 'D' pushed always shut it off. | ||
