■Read the Dishwasher User Instructions that came with your dishwasher.

■Check that all parts have been installed and no steps were skipped. Check that you have all tools used.

■Is the water turned on?

If none of these possible solutions work, please see the Use and Care Guide for service contact information.

Additional Tips

Expect longer wash times. Your new dishwasher will average

2-3 hours per load, but use nearly 40% less energy than older models. Designed with a low wattage, low energy consumption motor, your dishwasher washes longer to ensure exceptional cleaning. Certain models are equipped with an optical water sensor so the first cycle will run longer to calibrate to optical sensor. Selecting certain options could increase cycle time past 3.5 hours.

Rinse Aid is necessary for good drying results:

This dishwasher is designed to be used with rinse aid for good drying performance and controlling hard water deposit buildup. Energy efficient dishwashers use less water and energy, so they depend on the water sheeting action of rinse aid for good drying performance.

Start/Resume light may flash:

When pressing Start/Resume, you must make sure the door is closed within 3 seconds. If you do not close the door within

3 seconds, the Start/Resume light will flash until you press it again. (You must also do this when adding a dish during the middle of a cycle.)

NOTE: If a braided supply hose is used, replace inlet hose after

5 years to reduce the risk of hose failure. Record hose installation or replacement dates on the hose for future reference.
