Won’t Fill

• Be sure door is latched securely.

 

• Be sure the water is turned on.

 

• Check that the dial/pad is properly selected for a cycle.

 

• Allow time for select models to drain/pause before filling.

 

• Check your home’s circuit breaker or fuse box.

 

• Check inlet hose for a kink.

 

• Check water valve inlet for sediment and clean if necessary.

Won’t Drain/Water

in Tub Bottom

poser inlet.

 

• Be sure the drain hose is elevated at least 32” so water cannot siphon back into the tub.

 

• Check for a food obstruction in the drain or disposer.

 

• Check drain hose for a kink.

 

• Check your home’s circuit breaker or fuse box.

 

• Check that the cycle is completed.

Detergent Cup

• Check that the cycle is completed.

Not Empty

• Be sure dispenser is not blocked.

 

• Use fresh detergent which has been stored in a cool, dry place.

Seems Noisy

• A water valve hiss during fill is normal.

 

• Water circulation sounds are normal.

 

• A ticking noise is a normal timer sound.

 

• A thumping sound may be a wash arm bumping an item that is extending beyond the racks.

 

• Chopping or grinding sounds may be heard during drain as the internal food disposer

 

chops hard items like fruit seeds, nuts, etc.

 

• Humming during drain is normal.

 

• A snap noise is the detergent cup lid hitting the door liner when the dishwasher door is

 

opened at the end of the cycle. This is normal.

 

• Proper installation affects the noise level.

stays on)

(See pg. 6)

 

• Check to see that the incoming water temperature is 120-140º F (49-60° C).

Has An Odor

• Run dishes being held in the dishwasher through a Rinse Only cycle.

 

• Many dishwashers have a “new” smell when first installed. This will dissipate with use.

 

• A chemical odor is usually the chlorine bleach in dishwasher detergents. Try another brand.

 

• Dishwasher may not be draining properly. (See “Won’t Drain” section.)

 

• For a strong odor try placing baking soda in both sides of the detergent cup. Select

 

Light Wash and allow the water to circulate for about 10 minutes. Interrupt the cycle

 

by unlatching the door and let it stand overnight. Restart the dishwasher by latching the

 

door and allow it to complete the cycle. Another alternative is to use a commercial dish-

 

washer cleaning product such as Jet-Dry Dishwasher Cleaner*.

Leaks

• Check that the dishwasher is level. (Refer to the Installation Instructions.)

 

• Suds can cause the dishwasher to overflow. Measure the detergent carefully and use

 

only detergents designed for use in a dishwasher. Less detergent is needed in soft water.

 

Try another brand if sudsing continues.

 

• Follow directions closely on how to add a forgotten item (pg. 5).

 

• Be sure the Rinse Aid lid is securely attached and product is not leaking.

MDB4160, 6 915555 B, MDC4100, MDBD820, MDB4100 specifications

Maytag has long been synonymous with durability and performance in the appliance industry, and its range of dishwashers demonstrates this legacy. The Maytag series, which includes models such as the 6 915555 B, MDC4100, MDB4160, MDBD820, and MDB4100, showcases a blend of innovative technologies and features designed to make dishwashing efficient and effortless.

One of the standout features across these models is the PowerDry option, which ensures dishes come out thoroughly dry, eliminating the need for towel drying. This is particularly beneficial for glassware and plastics that tend to retain moisture. The models are designed with a robust stainless steel tub that not only enhances durability but also improves drying performance by retaining heat during the wash cycle.

These dishwashers are equipped with the Advanced Clean Wash System, a technology that utilizes a high-efficiency spray arm to ensure complete coverage of all dishes. The powerful spray action targets tough food particles, allowing for a thorough clean without the need for pre-rinsing. The Sensor Cycle feature intelligently adjusts the wash cycle based on the soil level of the dishes, maximizing water and energy efficiency.

User convenience is a hallmark of Maytag dishwashers. The QuietSeries sound package offers whisper-quiet operation, making them ideal for open-concept living spaces. Additionally, the models feature a variety of wash cycles, including Heavy, Normal, and Quick, giving users flexibility based on their needs.

Capacity is another strong suit of these models, with adjustable racks that can accommodate larger pots and pans. The fold-down tines in the lower rack create more space for bulky items, while a dedicated utensil basket ensures that smaller items are clean and organized.

Moreover, Maytag's commitment to reliability is exemplified by a 10-year limited parts warranty, underscoring their confidence in the longevity of their products. Energy-efficient certifications also make these dishwashers environmentally friendly choices for modern kitchens.

In summary, Maytag's lineup of dishwashers, including the 6 915555 B, MDC4100, MDB4160, MDBD820, and MDB4100, delivers a combination of advanced cleaning technology, user-friendly features, and reliable performance, making them a wise choice for consumers seeking efficiency and durability in their kitchen appliances.
