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?
lIs the water turned on?
l Have you checked your home’s main fuses or circuit breaker box?
lIs the dishwasher wired into a live circuit with the proper voltage?
lIf 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 dishwasher won’t fill:
lIs overflow protector stuck in “up” position? Overflow protector should move up and down freely. Press down to release.
If water remains in the dishwasher:
lHas the cycle completed?
9 A small amount of remaining water is normal.
lIs 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 and dry without lumps?
lIs the cycle completed?
If white residue appears on front of access panel:
l Is more detergent being used than needed? See page 9 for recommended amounts of detergent.
