TROUBLESHOOTING TIPS
Before Calling For Service
Reviewing the charts on the following pages may save you from calling for
service.
Problem Possible causes Solution
Dishwasher doesn't
start
Fuse blown, or the circuit
breaker tripped
Replace fuse or reset circuit breaker. Remove
any other appliances sharing the same circuit
with the dishwasher.

turned on.
Make sure the dishwasher is turned on and the
door is closed securely.

Twisted or trapped
drain hose.
Check the drain hose.
Filter clogged. Check the filter system.
Kitchen sink clogged.
Check the kitchen sink to make sure it is
draining well. If the problem is the kitchen
sink that is not draining , you may need
a plumber rather than a serviceman for
dishwashers.
Foam in the tub
Wrong detergent.
Use only the special dishwasher detergent to
avoid suds. If this occurs, open the dishwasher
and let suds evaporate. Add 1 liter of cold
water to the bottom of the dishwasher. Close
the dishwasher door, then select any cycle.
Initially, the dishwasher will drain out the
water. Open the door after draining stage
is complete and check if the suds have
disappeared. Repeat if necessary.
Spilled rinse aid. Always wipe up rinse aid spills immediately.
Stained tub interior
Detergent with colourant
may have been used.
Make sure that the detergent has no colourant.
White film on inside
surface
Hard water minerals.
To clean the interior, use the damp
soft cloth with dishwasher detergent and wear
rubber gloves. Never use any other cleaner
than dishwasher detergent for the risk of
foaming or suds.
