Whirlpool DP1098XR Series manual If you need assistance

If you need service or assistance, we suggest you follow these four steps:

1. Before calling for assistance...

Performance problems often result from little things you can find and fix yourself without tools of any kind.

If your dlshwasher will not run, or stops during a cycle:

l Is the door tightly closed and securely latched?

l Has the cycle been correctly set (and the Control Knob pulled out]?

l Is the water turned on?

l Have you checked your home’s main fuses or circuit breaker box?

l Is the power supply cord plugged into a live circuit with the proper voltage (portable models)?

l If the motor has stopped because of an over-

load, it will automatically reset itself within a few minutes. If the motor does not start, call for service.

If water remains in the dishwasher: l Has the cycle completed?

l A small amount of remaining water is normal. l Is drain air gap clogged?

If detergent remains in the covered detergent cup:

l Is the bottom rack in backwards? (The rack bumpers should be at the front.)

l Is the dishwasher detergent fresh and dry with- out lumps?

l Is the cycle completed?
