Vapor at Vent

Spilled rinse aid can cause foam and lead to overflowing. Wipe up any spills with a damp cloth.

Dishware Stained or Discolored

Tea and coffee can stain cups. Remove the stains by hand washing in a solution of 1/2 cup (120 ml) bleach and one quart (1L) of warm water. Rinse thoroughly.

Iron deposits in water can cause a yellow or brown film. A special filter installed in the water supply line will correct this problem. (See Removing Spots and Film).

Aluminum utensils can leave gray/ black marks when they rub against other items. Load Properly.

Certain high acid foods can cause discoloration of stainless steel and plastics if allowed to sit for a long period. Use the Rinse Only cycle or rinse by hand if not operating dishwasher at once.

Mixing stainless steel and silver utensils in silverware basket can cause pitting of the stainless steel blades. Avoid mixing stainless steel and silver.

Water in Bottom of Tub

Water left in the tub bottom after the cycle is complete is not normal. If water remains in the bottom of the tub, the dishwasher may not be draining properly. (See Dishwasher Does not Drain Properly).

Cycle Takes a Long Time

The cycle may have been automatically lengthened to reach key temperatures due to some factor such as a cool water supply or a large load of dishes.

Delay Start option may have been selected.

Choose lower temperature options to shorten the cycle.

Cycles that are soil-sensing adjust automatically to assure a good wash - heavier soils will elicit a longer cycle response.

BEFORE YOU CALL

Etching

Using too much detergent especially in soft or softened water causes damage that looks like a film but cannot be removed.

Adjust the amount of detergent based on the water hardness. (Check Detergent Chart).

Lower the water temperature by selecting one of the lower temperature options.

Detergent Left in Cups

Detergent may be old. Discard and use fresh detergent.

Be sure the dish load doesn’t block spray from entering the detergent cup.

Check to see if cycle has been completed.

Make sure items do not prevent the detergent dispenser from opening.

Dishwasher Leaks

Check that the door gasket is pressed into its mounting channel, reaches to the bottom of the tub and does not extend beyond the end rib so as to interfere with door closure.

Spilled rinse aide can cause foam and lead to overflowing. Wipe up any spills with a damp cloth.

Check to see that the dishwasher is level. (See Installation Instructions).

Avoid oversudsing by using the correct amount of detergent designed for automatic dishwashers.

Check to see that dishwasher is level. (See Installation Instructions).

Normal Sounds You Will Hear

Normal sounds include water fill, water spray, draining and motor sounds.

There is a noticeable change in sound when the wash action switches between the lower and middle spray arm. This is normal since each spray arm has its own sound.

It is normal for the dishwasher to pause (no sound) when the wash action is switching between the lower and middle spray arms.
