TROUBLESHOOTING
CHECK THESE POINTS TO HELP SAVE YOU TIME AND MONEY.
PROBLEM SOLUTION
DISHWASHER DOES NOT RUN
NOTE: It is normal for the dishwasher to repeatedly pause several times during a cycle.
If the Start/Resume light is blinking, close the door and push START/RESUME.
Be sure the door is closed and latched.
Check that there is not an interference with large casserole dishes and the wash system at the
back of the dishwasher. Adjust loading as necessary to ensure door is closed and latched.
Be sure you have disabled Sleep Mode by pressing either START/RESUME or CANCEL/DRAIN,
or opening the door before selecting your cycle/option.
Be sure you have selected a cycle. (See “Cycles and Options Information.”)
Be sure there is power to the dishwasher. A circuit breaker or fuse may have tripped.
If lights other than Start/Resume blink and the unit will not run, you will need to call for service.
DETERGENT REMAINS IN THE
DISPENSER OR TABLET IS ON
BOTTOM OF TUB
Check for dishware such as cookie sheets, cutting boards, or large containers, etc., that may be
blocking the detergent dispenser from opening properly.
Be sure your detergent is fresh and lump free.
Be sure the cycle has completed (blue light is on). If it has not completed, you will need to resume
the cycle by closing the door and pressing START/RESUME.
CYCLE RUNS TOO LONG
NOTES:
■
To use less water and reduce energy consumption you will encounter cycles that typically run
for up to 3 hours.
■
A water heater setting of 120°F (49ºC) is best. The dishwasher will delay longer while heating
cooler water.
■
Some options will add time to the cycle. (See “Cycles and Options Information” section.) The
Heated Dry option adds ½ hour.
Try the 1 Hour Wash cycle.
Run the hot water at a faucet close to the dishwasher before selecting and starting the cycle.
DISHES DO NOT DRY
COMPLETELY
Did you use a rinse aid? Your dishwasher is designed to use rinse aid for good drying
performance. Without rinse aid, your dishes and dishwasher interior will have excessive moisture.
The Heated Dry option will not perform as well without rinse aid.
DISHWASHER NOT DRYING
NOTE: Plastic and items with nonstick surfaces are difficult to dry because they have a porous
surface which tends to collect water droplets. Towel drying may be necessary.
Use of rinse aid along with the Heated Dry option is needed for proper drying.
Proper loading of items can affect drying. (See specific loading instructions within this guide.)
Glasses and cups with concave bottoms hold water. This water may spill onto other items
when unloading.
■
Unload the bottom rack first.
■
Locate these items on the more slanted side of the rack for improved results.
WILL NOT FILL
Be sure the water is turned on to the dishwasher.
Check that the float is free from obstructions. (See “Parts and Features.”)
Check for suds in the dishwasher. If foam or suds are detected, the dishwasher
may not operate properly or may not fill with water.
