Dishware Chipped
• Load with care and do not overload.
(See Preparing and Loading Dishes).
• Place delicate items in top rack.
• Place glasses securely against pins
and not over pins.
• Load items so they are secure and
don’t jar loose when moving racks
in and out. Move racks in and out
slowly.
• Make sure tall glasses and stemware
will clear top of tub when rack is
pushed in.
• Fine antique china and crystal should
be hand-washed.
Dishware Stained or Discolored
• Tea and coee can stain cups.
Remove the stains by hand washing
in a solution of 1/2 cup (120 ml)
bleach and one quart (1L) of warm
water. Rinse thoroughly.
• Iron deposits in water can cause a
yellow or brown film. A special filter
installed in the water supply line will
correct this problem. (See Removing
Spots and Film).
• Aluminum utensils can leave gray/
black marks when they rub against
other items. Load Properly.
• Certain high acid foods can cause
discoloration of stainless steel
and plastics if allowed to sit for a
long period. Rinse by hand if not
operating dishwasher at once.
• Mixing stainless steel and silver
utensils in silverware basket can
cause pitting of the stainless steel
blades. Avoid mixing stainless steel
and silver.
Etching
• Using too much detergent especially
in soft or softened water causes
damage that looks like a film but
cannot be removed.
• Adjust the amount of detergent
based on the water hardness. (Check
Detergent Chart).
• Lower the water temperature by
selecting the Normal Cycle.
TROUBLESHOOTING
Dishwasher Won’t Fill
• Assure the water supply is turned on.
• Check that the overfill protector
moves up and down freely. (See
Overfill Protector section).
Detergent Left in Cups
• Detergent may be old. Discard and
use fresh detergent.
• Be sure the dish load doesn’t spray
from entering the detergent cup.
• Check to see if cycle has been
completed.
• Make sure items do not prevent the
detergent dispenser from opening.
Vapor at Vent
• Water vapor escapes from the vent
during the drying part of cycle. This
is normal.
• Spilled rinse aid can cause foam and
lead to overflowing. Wipe up any
spills with a damp cloth.
• Check to see that dishwasher is level.
(See Installation Instructions).
Normal Sounds You Will Hear
• Normal sounds include water fill,
water circulation and motor sounds.
• There is a noticeable change in sound
when the wash action switches
between the lower and middle spray
arm. This is normal since each spray
arm has it’s own sound.
• It is normal for the dishwasher to
pause (no sound) when the wash
action is switching between the lower
and middle spray arms.
Water in Bottom of Tub
• Water left in the tub bottom after
the cycle is complete is not normal.
If water remains in the bottom of
the tub, the dishwasher may not be
draining properly. (See Dishwasher
Does not Drain Properly).
Dishwasher Leaks
• Check that the door gasket is
pressed into its mounting channel,
reaches to the bottom of the tub and
does not extend beyond the end rib
so as to interfere with door closure.
• Spilled rinse aide can cause foam and
lead to overflowing. Wipe up any
spills with a damp cloth.
