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.

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.

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?

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.

■ 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.

of china and glassware might be too delicate for automatic
dishwashing. Wash by hand.
