WATER STANDING	water. It’s there to keep the water seal lubricated.
IN THE BOT~M
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 page 14.)
	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 AU~MATIC
	DISHWASHER DETERGENTS ~ 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 LEAKS	Suds can cause unit to overflow. That’s why it’s so important to use a detergent that’s
	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.
