Dishwasher Does Not Drain Properly

If unit is hooked up to a food waste disposer, make sure the disposer is empty.

Check to see if the knockout plug has been removed from inside the food waste disposer inlet.

Check to see if drain hose is kinked.

Make sure cycle is complete, not in a pause.

Cycle Takes a Long Time

Is cycle in a water heating delay?

Has the delay start option been selected?

Has the sanitize option been selected?

Dishwasher Won't Fill

Is water supply turned on?

Check your home circuit breaker or fuse box.

Check inlet hose for a kink.

Does overfill protector move up and down freely? (See Overfill Protector section.)

Dishwasher Has an Odor

Soiled dishes left in dishwasher too long can create an odor. Rinse dishes if not running dishwasher at once.

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.)

Dishwashing Problems

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 will reduce the chance of staining. Using HEAT DRY OFF 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.Select the POTS & PANS/HEAVY WASH cycle. Close and latch door.

4.Allow dishwasher to run for 25 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 cycle to finish.

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

To customize your dishwasher to match your cabinets:

You will need a trim kit.

See Step 10 of Installation Instructionsthat came with your dishwasher for more information.
