If You Need Service Or Assistance
We suggest you follow
ttiese steps:
1. Before calling for assistance...
Performance problems often result from little
things you can find and fix yourself without tools
of any kind.
If your distiwasher will not run, or stops
during a cycle:
l
Is the door tightly closed and securely latched?
l
Has the cycle been correctly set?
. Is the water turned on?
l
Have you checked your home’s main fuses or
circuit breaker box?
l
Is the dishwasher connected to a live circuit with
the proper voltage?
l
If the motor has stopped because of an overload,
it will automatically reset itself within a few min-
utes. If the motor does not start, call for service.
If your dishwasher seems to run too long:
l
Have you selected Ihe Lo-Energy Wash Option?
The dishwasher may be waiting for the water
to heal.
If dishwasher won’t fill:
l
Is overfill protector stuck in “up” position? Overfill
protector should move up and down freely. Press
down to release.
If water remains in the dishwasher:
l
Has the cycle completed?
l
A small amount of remanning water is normal.
l
Is drain air gap clogged?
If detergent remains in the covered
detergent cup:
l
IS
the bottom rack in backwards? (The rack
bumpers should be al the front.)
l
Is the dishwasher detergent fresh and dry
withoul lumps?
l
Is Ihe cycle completed?
If white residue appears on front of access
panel:
l
Is more detergenl being used than needed? See
page 12 for recommended amounts of detergent.
l
Some liquid detergents develop excess foam
and build up on exterior of access panel. Try a
different brand to reduce foaming and eliminate
build-up.
If you hear grinding, grating, crunching,
buzzing sounds:
l
A hard object has probably entered the POWER
CLEAN r” Module. The sound should stop when
the object IS ground up.
ff dishes aren’t as dry as you expected:
l
Is the rinse agent dispenser filled? Using a rinse
agent greatly improves drying. (See page 13.)
