If you need service or assistance, we suggest you follow these five 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 dishwasher won’t run, or stops during a cycle: l Is door tightly closed and securely latched?
l Has the cycle been correctly set? l Is water turned on?
l Have you checked your home’s main fuses or cir- cuit breaker box?
l Is the power supply cord plugged into a live circuit with the proper voltage (portable models]?
l Has electrical power been interrupted?
l lfthe motor has stopped because of an overload, it
will automatically reset 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 or
l Is your household water temperature too low? Low
water temperature settings will cause longer dish- washer operating times.
If water remains in the dishwasher: l Has the cycle completed?
If detergent | remains | in the | covered | detergent | cup: | |||
l | Is the | bottom | rack | in backwards? | (The rack | bump- | ||
| ers should be at the front.) |
|
|
| ||||
l | Is the | dishwasher | detergent | fresh? |
|
| ||
l | Is the | cycle |
| completed? |
