Problems

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. Turn dial to NORMAL WASH.
Close and latch door to start.
4. Allow dishwasher to run for
40 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.
Dishwasher Has an
Odor
• Soiled dishes left in
dishwasher too long can
create an odor. Use Rinse/
Hold cycle or rinse by hand.
• 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 Cool
Dry option will lessen staining.
