Frigidaire FPHD2491KF Questions and Answers


#1 How do I adjust the upper rack of my dishwasher?

Since the adjustability of your racks may vary by model, we recommend that you first reference your Owner’s Manual.

However, here are some helpful tips depending on your dishwasher tub type:

For Plastic Tub Dishwashers -

To raise the upper rack, press the lever on the rack toward the center of the rack and pull straight up.

To lower the upper rack, press the lever and push down on the rack. Your Owner’s Manual may have a diagram for assistance.

For Stainless Tub Dishwashers -

The top rack height can be easily adjusted to accommodate loading taller dishes.

To raise the rack, lift up until both sides are at the same height and the rack will secure in place. Ensure the rack remains level from front to back with both sides at the same height.

To lower the rack, lift the rack slightly then push down and release.

#2 What can I do if my dishwasher is not draining?

If your dishwasher is not draining properly, we recommend you check the following:

Ensure that the knockout plug has been removed from inside the food waste disposer inlet.
Make sure the drain hose is not kinkedEnsure the cycle is complete, not in pause status.
Check that the glass trap/ filter is maintained and installed properly with no clogs.

#3 What should I do if my dishwasher is not starting?

If your dishwasher is not starting, we recommend you check the following:

Make sure you have not inadvertently set DELAY START or CHILD LOCK.
Make sure you have pressed START/CANCEL after selecting your cycles.
Make sure you have closed door immediately to avoid having to reselect your cycle/options. If you added a forgotten item or interrupted the cycle, you may need to press START again for the cycle to resume once you close the door.
Make sure the dishwasher door is properly closed.
Make sure your water supply is turned on.
Check to see if the circuit breaker is tripped or if a fuse is blown.

#4 How do I set the child lock feature?

To prevent children from accidentally changing the dishwasher settings or starting the dishwasher, you can lock the controls.

For Plastic Tub Dishwashers -

Press and hold DELAY START for 3 seconds. An indicator light on the lock graphic pad will illuminate when the controls are locked and no new selections can be made until the lock is released.

To unlock the controls, press DELAY START again for 3 seconds, and the indicator light will go out.

For Stainless Steel Dishwashers -

Press DELAY START until the display window displays "loc".

To unlock the controls, press DELAY START until "loc" is no longer displayed in the displaystatus window

#5 What are normal dishwasher operations sounds?

It is normal for you to hear the water filling in your dishwasher along with water circulating and the motor running. If you hear a knocking or banging sound, check to ensure you do not have dish, pot, pan, or utensil causing the spray arm to circulate improperly.

For models equipped with the fan-assisted Even Dry or Perfect Dry system, it's normal to hear the fan operate at various times during the cycles.
