Noise NOTES:
■
Surging sounds can occur periodically throughout the wash cycle and during the drain cycle.
■
Normal water valve hissing may be heard periodically.
■
A normal snap sound may be heard when the detergent dispenser opens during the cycle and when the door is opened
at the end of the cycle.
■
Improper installation will affect noise levels.
■
A thumping sound may be heard if items extend beyond the racks and interfere with the wash arms. Readjust
the dishware and resume the cycle.
Spotting/Filming NOTES:
■
Liquid rinse aid is necessary for drying and to reduce spotting.
■
Use the correct amount of detergent.
Confirm that the cloudiness is removable by soaking the item in white vinegar for 5 minutes. If the cloudiness disappears,
it is due to hard water. Adjust the amount of detergent and rinse aid. See “Dishwasher Care” section. If it does not become
clear, it is due to etching (see below).
Be sure the incoming water temperature is set at 120°F (49°C).
Try using the Hi Temp or Sanitize option.
To remove spotting, see “Dishwasher Care” section.
Dishwasher does
not clean
completely
Be sure the dishwasher is loaded correctly. Improper loading can greatly decrease the washing performance. Check that
all spray arms spin freely.
Select the proper cycle for the type of soils. The Auto or PowerBlast™ cycle can be used for tougher loads.
Be sure the incoming water temperature is at least 120°F (49°C).
Use the proper amount of fresh detergent. More detergent is needed for heavier soiled loads or hard water conditions.
Scrape food from dishes prior to loading (do not prerinse).
If foam or suds are detected by the dishwasher sensing system, the dishwasher may not operate properly or may not fill
with water.
Suds can come from:
■
Using the incorrect type of detergent, such as dish detergent for hand washing dishes, laundry detergent,
or hand soap.
■
Loading dishes that have been prewashed with handwash dishwashing detergent without rinsing them.
■
Not replacing the rinse aid dispenser cap after filling (or refilling) the rinse aid.
■
Using an excessive amount of dishwasher detergent.
Dishwasher does
not drain
Be sure the cycle has been completed (the green front panel light is off). If the cycle has not been completed, you will need
to resume the cycle by pressing START/RESUME and closing the door within 4 seconds.
If dishwasher is connected to a food waste disposer, be sure the knockout plug has been removed from the disposer inlet.
Check for kinks in the drain hose.
Check for food obstructions in the air gap, drain hose, or disposer.
Check your house fuse or circuit breaker.
