Before calling for service, review this list. It may save you both time and expense. This
list includes common experiences that are not the result of defective workmanship or
material in your dishwasher.
FOOD SOILS LEFT ON DISHES
• Check incoming water temperature. (See Getting Started, page 8.) It should
be at least 120°F (49°C). (See Factors Affecting Performance, page 20.)
• Choose another cycle for longer washing time.
• Check rack loading section for proper loading—avoid nesting items.
• Home water pressure may be too low—should be 20 to 120 pounds per
square inch (psi).
• Check water hardness. For extremely hard water, it may be necessary to
install a water softener. (See Detergent Usage Guide, page 18.)
• Use fresh detergent.
• Make sure items are not blocking any of the spray arms, preventing them
from rotating.
DISHES NOT DRY
• Make sure the rinse aid dispenser is filled.
• Increase the amount of rinse aid (See Rinse Aid, page 19).
• Check the incoming water temperature. Be sure it is at least 120°F (49°C).
• Check for proper loading—avoid nesting items.
• Plastic items may need to be towel dried. More water collects on plastic
items when cycle is complete because they do not get as hot as glass or
metal items.
• Cups with a concave bottom will collect water.
