Dishwasher Does Not Drain Properly
If unit is hooked up to a food waste
disposer, make sure the disposer is empty.
Check to see if the knockout plug has been
removed from inside the food waste
disposer inlet.
Check to see if drain hose is kinked.
Make sure cycle is complete, not in a pause.
Cycle Takes a Long Time
Is cycle in a water heating delay?
Has the delay start option been selected?
Dishwasher Wont Fill
Is water supply turned on?
Does overfill protector move up and down
freely? (See Overfill Protector section.)
Dishwasher Has an Odor
Soiled dishes left in dishwasher too long
can create an odor. Use Rinse/Hold cycle.
There will be a new smell when first
installed. This is normal.
Check to see if unit is draining properly.
(See Dishwasher Does Not Drain Properly.)
Stains on Tub Interior
Washing large amounts of dishware with
tomato based soil can cause a pink/orange
appearance. This will not affect
performance and will gradually fade over
time. Pre-rinsing or using the Rinse/Hold
cycle will reduce the chance of staining.
Using Heat Dry Off option will lessen
staining.
Removing Spots and Film
Hard water can cause lime deposit buildup on
the interior of the dishwasher. Dishes and
glasses may also get spots and film for a
number of reasons. (See Glassware/Flatware
Spotted or Cloudy section.) To remove
buildup, spots and film, clean using the
following instructions:
1. Load clean dishes and glasses in normal
manner. Do not load any metal utensils or
silverware.
2. Do not add detergent.
3. Select the HEAVY WASH cycle. Close and
latch door to start.
4. Allow dishwasher to run for 25 minutes to
reach the main wash portion of cycle.
5. Unlatch and open door and pour 2 cups of
white vinegar into the bottom of
dishwasher.
6. Close and latch door and allow the cycle to
finish.
Note: If these conditions persist, a home
water softener should be considered.
