Specific to Kenmore dishwashers, the SmartWash Cycle automatically adjusts the amount of water and energy each time you run the dishwasher. First, the machine detects the soil level of the dishes and computes the load size. The amount of water and correlating energy level is adjusted accordingly for an easy clean, so you don't have to look back through the dirty dishes you've loaded and fidget with cycle settings.
