If you have a drain air gap,
check and clean it if the
dishwasher isn't draining well.
To Reduce Risk of Property
Damage During Vacation or Extended Time Without Use
■ When you will not be using the dishwasher during the summer
months, turn off the water and power supply to the dishwasher.
■ Make sure the water supply lines are protected against freezing
conditions. Ice formations in the supply lines can increase water
pressure and cause damage to your dishwasher or home. Damage
from freezing is not covered by the warranty.
■ When storing your dishwasher in the winter, avoid water damage by
having your dishwasher winterized by authorized service
personnel.

DISHWASHER CARE
PROBLEM SOLVER
If you experience Recommended Solutions
Dishwasher does
not run or stops
during a cycle
It is normal for certain cycles to repeatedly pause for several seconds during the main wash. Is the door closed tightly and
latched?
Is the right cycle selected?
Is there power to the dishwasher? Has a household fuse blown, or has a circuit breaker tripped? Replace the fuse or reset
the circuit breaker. If the problem continues, call an electrician.
Has the motor stopped due to an overload? The motor automatically resets itself within a few minutes. If it does not restart,
call for service.
Is the water shutoff valve (if installed) turned on?
The Clean light is
flashing
Is the overfill protection float able to move up and down freely? Press down to release.
Be sure the water supply is turned on to the dishwasher. This is very important following the new installation of your
dishwasher.
Check for suds in the dishwasher. 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 laundry detergent, hand soap, or dish detergent for hand washing
dishes.
■ Forgetting to replace the rinse aid dispenser cap after filling (or refilling) the rinse aid.
■ Using an excessive amount of dishwasher detergent.
