TROUBLESHOOTING TIPS
Problem
Possible Cause
What To Do
Sanitized light does
not illuminate at the
end of the cycle
The door was opened and the
cycle was interrupted during
final rinse
Do not interrupt the cycle by opening the door during the wash
cycle.
The incoming water
temperature was too low
Raise the water heater temperature to between 120°F and
150°F.
Noise
Normal operating sounds:
Beeping at the end of the
cycle
Detergent cup opening
Water entering dishwasher
Motor stops and starts at
various times during cycle
Spray arms start and stop at
various times
Drain pump sounds during
pump out
Drain pump starts and stops
several times during each
drain
These are all normal. No action is required.
Rattling dishes when the
spray arm rotates
Make sure dishes are properly loaded. See the
Loading
section.
Rattling silverware against
door during wash
Tall utensils may be placed in the upper rack to avoid bumping
against inner door during wash cycle.
A white film on
glassware, dishware
and the interior
This problem is likely caused
by a low quality phosphate-
free dishwasher detergent
To remove the white film, run your dishes through a dishwasher
cycle with citric acid. Use a WD35X151 citric acid kit found
online. Otherwise, use
Finish
®
Dishwasher Cleaner
found at
your local grocery store.
Pour the citric acid in the detergent cup and close the cover.
Place the filmed but otherwise clean glassware and dishware in
the dishwasher. Leave silverware and other metal items out of
the dishwasher. Turn the dishwasher on and let it run through a
complete cycle without detergent. The glassware, dishware, and
dishwasher should come out film free. Alternatively, a vinegar rinse
may be used. Pour 1 cup of vinegar into dishwasher just after the
detergent cup opens and let the dishwasher complete its cycle.
This may be repeated several times a year as needed.
The use of a rinse agent such as
Finish
®
Jet-Dry
®
Rinse Aid
may help minimize a repeat build up of film. Also, the use of a
highly rated detergent such as
Finish
®
Quantum
®
Automatic
Dishwashing Detergent
will help prevent film build-up.
