SUGGESTED REMEDY
Use the maximum recommended amount (3 tablespoons) of

To remove hard water spots, try a vinegar rinse:
•Wash and rinse load as usual.
• Remove all metal items from dishwasher.
• Do not add detergent.
• Pour two cups of vinegar into a bowl and set it on the bottom
rack of the dishwasher.
• Run the dishes through an entire wash program.
If the vinegar rinse doesn't work, repeat the above process
substituting 1/4 cup citric acid crystals (available at most drug
stores) for the vinegar.
Wiping with a damp cloth should remove spots from metal
items. For sterling silver and silver plated flatware, rub with a
towel, or use a good cream silver polish.
Check filter system to be sure it isclean and properly installed.
Does the rinse aid dispenser need to be filled? (NOTE: Use
only in hard water areas).
Check that the water valve is fully opened. Make sure that the
water pressure is between 18 and 176 psi.
Check the filter inlet valve.
Use only the correct amount of dishwasher detergent
according to the hardness of the water and the wash program
you have selected. Do not use old or caked detergent. Store
the dishwasher detergent in a dry place and in a closed
container.
Change the dishwasher detergent if the result is still
unsatisfactory.
Check that you loaded the items according to the instructions
on pages 5-6. Do not overload. Make sure water can reach all
soiled surfaces.
Check that both wash arms can rotate freely and that items do
not obstruct the movement of the wash arms. Lift the arms
and make sure that no grains of dirt, etc., retard the rotation of
the wash arms. If necessary, clear the obstruction, refit the
arms and check that they rotate freely.
Make sure that the holes in the wash arms are not blocked by
dirt. If necessary, clear the holes with a pointed object.
Check the strainer, Clean if necessary. See page 11.
Use only dishwasher detergent.
Pay particular attention to spoons so that they do not nest in
each other and prevent water penetration.
