SOLUTIONS TO COMMON DISHWASHING PROBLEMS
• 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 its own
sound.
• It is normal for 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 bottom of tub after cycle is complete is
not normal. If water remains in the bottom of the tub,
dishwasher may not be draining properly. (See
Dishwasher Does Not Drain Properly.)
Dishwasher Won’t Run
• Check to see if circuit breaker is tripped or if a fuse is
blown.
• Make sure water supply is turned on.
• Check to see if cycle is set correctly.
(See Operating Instructions.)
• Is dishwasher set for delay start option?
• Make sure door is closed and latched.
Dishware Stained or Discolored
• Tea and coffee can stain cups. Remove the stains by
hand washing in a solution of 1/2 cup (120 ml) bleach
and one quart (1 L) 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. Use the Rinse Only cycle or 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 in soft or softened water
causes this film that cannot be removed.
• Adjust the amount of detergent based on the water
hardness. (Check Detergent Chart.)
• Lower the water temperature.
• Use no heat dry option.
Detergent Left in Cups
• Detergent may be old. Discard and use fresh
detergent.
• Be sure water action can reach the dispenser.
• 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.
Dishwasher Leaks
• Use only fresh detergent designed for automatic
dishwashers. Measure detergent carefully. Try a
different brand.
