Dishes are not completely clean
■ Food soil left on the dishes
Is the dishwasher loaded correctly?
Check and clean your lters regularly. See the table in
“Filtration System” section for “Recommended Time Interval
to Clean Your Filter.”
Did you choose the cycle that describes the most difcult soil
in your dishwasher? If you have some items with heavier soils,
use a heavier cycle.
Is the water temperature too low? For best dishwashing
results, water should be 120°F (49°C) as it enters the
dishwasher.
Did you use the correct amount of fresh detergent? Use
recommended dishwasher detergents only. Do not use less
than 1 tbs (15 g) per load. Detergent must be fresh to be
effective. Heavy soil and/or hard water generally require extra
detergent.
Is detergent caked in dispenser? Use fresh detergent only. Do
not allow detergent to sit for several hours in a wet dispenser.
Clean dispenser when caked detergent is present.
Is the pump or spray arm clogged by labels from bottles and
cans?
Is the home water pressure high enough for proper
dishwasher lling? Home water pressure should be 20 to
120 psi (138 to 828 kPa) for proper dishwasher ll. If you have
questions about your water pressure, call a licensed, qualied
plumber.
Are high suds slowing the wash arm? Do not use soap or
laundry detergents. Use recommended dishwasher detergents
only.
■ Dishes in the TargetClean™ wash area are not clean
Are the dishes loaded to face the TargetClean™ spray jets?
Load soiled dish surfaces to face the back of the dishwasher
toward the TargetClean™ spray jets. Tilt the dishes toward the
back so water can drain from surfaces, and the lower spray
arm can wash the item from below.
NOTE: Loaded items may shift when dish racks are pushed
into the dishwasher. Make sure dishes do not interfere with the
spray arms, water feed tube, or TargetClean™ spray jets.
Are items loaded so they do not overlap? Load items only one
row deep without any overlap so that the TargetClean™ spray
jets can reach all surfaces.
Dishes are damaged during a cycle
■ Chipping of dishes
Did you load the dishwasher properly? Load the dishes and
glasses so they are stable and do not strike together from
washing action. Minimize chipping by moving the rack in and
out slowly.
NOTE: Antiques, feather-edged crystal, and similar types
of china and glassware might be too delicate for automatic
dishwashing. Wash by hand.
