PROBLEM
SOLUTION
DISHWASHER IS NOT
CONNECTED TO HOME
WI-FI ROUTER (WIRELESS
ICON IS OFF)
The dishwasher may be in Standby mode. Press POWER on the dishwasher and observe indicators.
All indicator lights are off when in Standby mode.
Check that the dishwasher has been connected to the home Wi-Fi router. See the “Connectivity
Setup” section.
Press and hold CONNECT for 3 seconds. The Wireless Status icon should blink while connecting (this
may take up to 2 minutes).
Check whether the router connection is on and working with other computers or devices in the home
(able to access the Internet). Have you changed the router or its password?
There may be weak signal strength or signal interference between the dishwasher and router. Try to
place the wireless router closer to the dishwasher. It may be necessary to install a Wi-Fi range extender.
Check the mobile app to verify that the dishwasher is not offline. If it is offline, do the following
to reconnect:
1.
Go to “Preferences” in the mobile app find and select DELETE APPLIANCE.
2.
Follow the mobile app instructions to add an appliance.
