PROBLEM	POSSIBLE CAUSE AND REMEDY
CHIPPING OF CHINA	Rough handling can cause chipping. Load with care. Make sure glassware and china
	are secure and can’t jar loose. (See page 12 for correct way to load glassware.) Make
	sure tall 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.
	Use the CHINA-CRYSTAL cycle for fine china.
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 B~~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 18.)
	Check the kitchen sink. Is it draining well? You may need a plumber.
	If dishwasher drains into a disposer, run the disposer to clear. Be sure the disposer is
	not clogged.
	See the DISPLAY PANEL (pages 4 and 5).
SUDS IN THE TUB	Sudsing detergents are not meant for dishwashers. USE ONLY AU~MATIC
	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. To pump out water, touch
	START two times, then immediately touch CLEAR-RESET.
	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.)
CONTROL PANEL	Shut off power to dishwasher at fuse or circuit breaker. Wait 5 seconds and restore
DOESN’T RESPOND	power to dishwasher. Try input panel again.
