PROBLEM | SOLUTION | |
|
| |
DAMAGE TO DISHWARE | Improper loading can cause dishes to become chipped or damaged. (See specific loading | |
| instructions within this guide.) | |
|
| |
BLINKING LIGHTS | If Start/Resume or any status lights are blinking and the dishwasher will not run, close the | |
| door and push START/RESUME. If the dishwasher still will not run call service. | |
|
| |
CLOUDY OR SPOTTED | NOTES: | |
DISHWARE (AND HARD | ■ Liquid rinse aid is necessary for drying and to reduce spotting. | |
WATER SOLUTION) | ||
■ Use the correct amount of detergent. | ||
| ||
| Confirm that the cloudiness is removable by soaking the item in white vinegar for 5 minutes. | |
| If the cloudiness disappears, it is due to hard water. Adjust the amount of detergent and | |
| rinse aid. (See “HARD WATER [WHITE RESIDUE ON DISHWASHER INTERIOR OR | |
| GLASSWARE] in “Troubleshooting.” If it does not come clear, it is due to etching (see | |
| below). | |
| Be sure the incoming water temperature is set at 120°F (49ºC). | |
| Try using the High Temp and Sani Rinse options. | |
| To remove spotting, run a vinegar rinse through the dishwasher. | |
| ■ Wash and rinse the affected dishware and load into dishwasher. Remove all silverware | |
| and metal items. Put 2 cups (500 mL) of white vinegar in a glass measuring cup in the | |
| lower rack. Run a normal cycle with the Heated Dry option turned off. No detergent is | |
| needed. | |
|
| |
ETCHING (PERMANENT | This is an erosion of the surface of the glassware and can be caused by a combination of: | |
CLOUDINESS) | water that is too hot, from using too much detergent with soft water or by | |
| Detergent needs food soil to act upon. If etching has occurred, the glassware is | |
| permanently damaged. To avoid further etching, adjust the detergent amount to match the | |
| water hardness, stop | |
| water temperature is below 120°F (49ºC). | |
|
| |
LEAKING WATER | Be sure dishwasher has been installed properly and is level. | |
| Suds can cause the dishwasher to overflow. Measure the detergent accurately and use only | |
| detergents designed for use in a dishwasher. Less detergent is needed in soft water. Try | |
| another brand of detergent if sudsing continues. | |
| To avoid rinse aid leaking from the dispenser, be sure the lid is securely attached and avoid | |
| overfilling. | |
