Solutions to Common Dishwashing

Problems (continued)

Dishwasher Has an Odor

Soiled dishes left in dishwasher too long can create an odor. Use Rinse/ Hold cycle or rinse by hand.

There will be a “new” smell when first installed. This is normal.

Check to see if unit is draining properly. (See Dishwasher Does Not Drain Properly.)

Stains on Tub Interior

Washing large amounts of dishware with tomato based soil can cause a pink/orange appearance. This will not affect performance and will gradually fade over time. Pre- rinsing or using the Rinse/ Hold cycle will reduce the chance of staining. Using Cool Dry option will lessen staining.

Removing Spots and Film

Hard water can cause lime deposit buildup on the interior of the dishwasher. Dishes and glasses may also get spots and film for a number of reasons. (See Glassware/Flatware Spotted or Cloudy section.) To remove buildup, spots and film, clean using the following instructions:

1.Load clean dishes and glasses in normal manner. Do not load any metal utensils or silverware.

2.Do not add detergent.

3.Turn dial to NORMAL WASH. Close and latch door to start.

4.Allow dishwasher to run for 40 minutes to reach the main wash portion of cycle.

5.Unlatch and open door and pour 2 cups of white vinegar into the bottom of dishwasher.

6.Close and latch door and allow the cycle to finish.

Note: If these conditions persist, a home water softener should be considered.
