STEP 19: DISHWASHER WET TEST

• Turn on power supply or plug power cord into outlet,  

if equipped.

• Select a cycle to run and push the 

Start/Reset

 pad.

• Ensure the door is latched. Dishwasher should start.

• Check to be sure that water enters the dishwasher. If water 

does not enter the dishwasher, check to be sure that water 
and power are turned on.

• Check for leaks under the dishwasher. If a leak is found, turn 

off power at the breaker, and then tighten water connections. 
Restore power after leak is corrected.

• Check for leaks around the door. A leak around the door could 

be caused by door rubbing or hitting against

Start/Reset

 pad for 3 seconds to cancel 

the cycle. The unit will begin to drain. Check drain lines. If 
leaks are found, turn off power at the breaker and correct 
plumbing as necessary. Restore power after corrections are 
made. See Steps 6, 7, 8, 9 and 16.

• Open dishwasher door and make sure all of the water has 

drained. If not, check that disposer plug has been removed 
and/or air gap is not plugged. Also check drain hose to be 
sure it is not kinked underneath or behind dishwasher. See 
Step 16.

• Press 

Start/Reset

 pad once again and run dishwasher 

through another cycle. Check for leaks and correct if 
required.

• Repeat this step as necessary.
