		The dispenser cover may not be opening or may be blocked by improperly loaded
		items. If you used a powder detergent, open the cup and remove any caked-on
		detergent. If the cup still doesn’t open automatically, call for service.
		Detergent may be old. If the powder detergent is hard or caked in the box, throw it
		away. The detergent may not be working well. Try another brand.
	CLOUDINESS ON	If vinegar or citric acid crystal rinse doesn’t work, the cloudiness is “etching.”
	GLASSWARE	The film cannot be removed.
		It can be prevented: Use less detergent if you have soft water. Wash glassware in
		the shortest cycle that will get them clean.
		Water temperature entering dishwasher exceeds 150°F.
	CHIPPING OF CHINA	Rough handling can cause chipping. Load with care. Make sure glassware and china
		are secure and can’t jar loose. (See Loading section). Make sure tdl glasses and
		stemware will clear the top of the tub when you push the rack into the dishwasher.
		Always use the top rack for delicate items.
	BLACK OR GRAY	Aluminum utensils often leave marks when they rub against dishes. Remove marks
	MARKS ON DISHES	with a mild abrasive cleanser.
	SMALL AMOUNT OF	Water around the outlet on the tub bottom at the back of the tub is normal. It is clean
	WATER STANDING	water. It’s there to keep the water seal lubricated.
	IN THE BOTTOM
	OF THE TUB
	WATER WON’T PUMP	If the entire bottom of the tub has water, you may have a drain problem. Clean the air
	OUT OF THE TUB	gap, if you have one. (See Care and Cleaning section).
		Check the kitchen sink. Is it draining well? You may need a plumber.
		If dishwasher drains into disposer, run disposer to clear. Be sure disposer is not
		clogged.
	SUDS IN THE TUB	Sudsing detergents are not meant for dishwashers. USE ONLY AUTOMATIC
		DISHWASHER DETERGENTS TO AVOID SUDSING.
		To remove suds from the tub: Open the dishwasher. Let suds evaporate. Add 1 gallon
		of cold water to the tub. Close and latch the dishwasher. Pump out water by slowly
		turning the control dial until a drain period is reached.
		Repeat if necessary.
	DISHWASHER	Suds can cause unit to ovetiow. That’s why it’s so important to use a detergent that’s
	LEAKS	designed for automatic dishwashers.
		Spilling the rinse agent can cause foam during washing. This can lead to overflowing.
		Wipe up accidental spill of rinse agent with a damp cloth.
	MOTOR HUMS	Dishwasher has not been used on a regular basis.
		If you do not use your dishwasher often, set it to fill and pump out once every week.
		This will help keep the sed moist, and the garbage disposer clear,
