Black or gray marks on dishes
Are aluminum items rubbing dishes during washing?
Disposable aluminum items can break down in the
dishwasher and cause marking. Hand wash these items.
Remove aluminum markings by using a mild abrasive cleaner.
Orange stains on plastic dishes or dishwasher interior
Are large amounts of tomato-based foods on dishes placed
in the dishwasher? Stains gradually fade over time. Regular
use of heated drying will slow fading. Stains will not affect
dishwasher performance. Regular use of a rinse cycle and an
air-dry or energy-saving dry option will reduce the likelihood
of staining.
Dishes are not dry
Did you load your dishwasher to allow proper water
drainage? Do not overload. Refer to the "Loading" section.
Use a liquid rinse aid to speed drying.
Are the plastics wet? Plastics often need towel drying.
Is the rinse aid dispenser empty? Refer to the "Rinse Aid"
section.
Did you use an air-dry option? Use a heated drying option for
dryer dishes.
Noises
Grinding, grating, crunching or buzzing sounds
A hard object has entered the wash module (on some
models). When the object is ground up, the sound should
stop. If the noise persists after a complete cycle, call for
service.
Marks, smudges or residue on dishwasher exterior
Did you clean the dishwasher with a mild detergent and cloth
or use a stainless steel cleaner on models with a stainless
steel exterior? In most cases, regular use of a soft, damp
cloth or sponge and a mild detergent is all that is necessary
to keep the outside of your dishwasher looking fresh and
clean. If your dishwasher has a stainless steel exterior, a
stainless steel cleaner is recommended.
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.
