Cycle time changes when I close the door

When I set my Whirlpool dishwasher for Normal wash and set the dry cycle setting at off the cycle time displays as 2:26. But when I push start and close the door the cycle time goes up to 3:16. And when the cycle is done the dishes fell like they were heat dried. Why?

Hi @chrisexton

Here's the tech sheet for the dishwasher.

Run the diagnostic tests (see ACTIVATING SERVICE DIAGNOSTIC MODE) and check if any error codes are displayed.
