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:
Press START/RESUME and close the door within 4 seconds.
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.
■ Check to see if any items are protruding through the bottom or back of the rack. Also
check to see if tall items are hitting the upper rack or spray arm. Adjust loading as
necessary to ensure door is closed and latched.
Press START/RESUME or CANCEL, or open and close the door before selecting your cycle/
option. Controls must be awakened after a period of inactivity.
Be sure the Control/Lock feature is not on. If the control lock indicator is lit, press and hold
CONTROL LOCK for 3 seconds. The Control Lock LED will turn o and you can then operate
the controls.
Be sure you have selected a cycle. See the “Cycles and Options Information” section.
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, 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 water ow.
Be sure your detergent is fresh and lump free.
If the cycle has completed, the Complete indicator light will be lit on the control panel. If it has
not completed, 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. Ecient dishwashers run longer to save water and energy, just as driving a
car slower saves on gas.
■ A water heater setting of 120°F (49°C) is best; the dishwasher will delay longer while heating
cooler water.
■ Some options will add time to the cycle. See the “Cycles and Options Information” section.
The Heated Dry option adds up to 46 minutes.
Try the 1 Hour Wash cycle. The 1 Hour Wash cycle uses more energy and water to clean the
dishes in less time.
Run hot water at the faucet closest to the dishwasher before starting the cycle.
DISHWASHER NOT DRYING NOTE: Plastic and items with nonstick surfaces are dicult 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 aect drying. (See specic 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 rst.
■ 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 overll protection oat is free from obstructions. See the “Parts and
Features” section.
Check for suds in the dishwasher. If foam or suds are detected, the dishwasher
may not operate properly or may not ll with water. See “Blinking Lights” in the
“Troubleshooting” section.
