Whirlpool DU4500XR Series Dishwasher User Manual


 
If you need service or assistance, we suggest
you follow these four 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 dishwasher will not run, or stops during
a cycle:
l
Is the door tightly closed and securely
latched?
l
Has the cycle been correctly set?
l
Is the water turned on?
l
Have you checked your home’s main fuses or
circuit breaker box?
l
Is the dishwasher wired into a live circuit with
the proper voltage (undercounter models]?
l
If the motor has stopped because of an over-
load, it will automatically reset itself within a
few minutes. If the motor does not start, call for
service.
If your dishwasher seems to run too long:
l
Are you using POTS & PANS Cycle? The dish-
washer may be waiting for the water to heat.
l
Is your household water temperature set too
low? Low water temperature settings will
cause longer dishwasher operating times.
if water remains in the dishwasher:
l
Has the cycle completed?
l
A small amount
of
remaining 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 at the front.)
l
Is the dishwasher detergent fresh?
l
Is the cycle completed?
