Whirlpool DU8900XT Before calling for assistance, If you need assistance?, If you need service

If you need service or assistance,

we suggest you follow these five 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 DISHWASHER WILL NOT RUN, OR STOPS DURING A CYCLE:

l Is the door tightly closed and securely latched?

l Has the cycle been correctly set? l Is the water turned on?

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

l Is the dishwasher wired into a live circuit with the proper voltage?

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 YOUR DISHWASHER SEEMS TO RUN TOO LONG:

l Are you using POTS & PANS Cycle or HI-TEMP WASH Option? The dishwasher may be wait- ing for the water to heat.

l Is your household water temperature set too

low? Low water temperature settings will cause longer dishwasher operating times.

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?

IF YOU HEAR GRINDING, GRATING, CRUNCH- ING, BUZZING SOUNDS:

l A hard object has probably entered the POWER CLEAN Module. The sound should stop when the object is ground up.
