Dishwashers may occasionally exhibit problems that are unrelated to a mal-
function of the dishwasher itself. The following information may help you
with a dishwasher problem without involving a repair professional.

Dishwasher
seems to
run a long
time
1. Incoming water is not warm enough
2. Cycle time can vary due to soil and
water conditions
3. Rinse agent dispenser is empty
4. Dishwasher connected to cold
water supply
Note: Refer to “Wash Cycle Information”
section in this manual for typical cycle
lengths.
1. Before starting a cycle, run hot
water faucet at the sink closest to the
dishwasher
2. Sensors in the dishwasher auto-
matically increase the cycle time to
ensure a good wash when heavy soil
is detected
3. Add rinse aid
4. Verify dishwasher is connected to
hot water supply plumbing
Dishes are
not getting
dry enough
1. Rinse agent dispenser is empty
2. Improper loading of dishes
3. Selected cycle does not include
drying
Note: Plastic or Teflon do not typically dry as
well as other items due to their inherent
properties.
1. Add rinse agent - the use of rinse
agent improves drying
2. Rearrange load to ensure items are
not nesting (see “Loading the Dish-
washer” section of the manual)
3. Rinse cycle does not include drying
Note: Select models offer an extra heating
option to improve drying performance.
