SOLUTION
•Avoid spilling dry detergent on wet silverware. Clean with silver polish.
• Use RINSE & HOLD cycle. Certain foods left on silverware for extended periods
of time may cause pitting.
•Remove tarnish with silver polish.
•Load metal utensils so mey do not rub against dishes. Marks may be removed
with mild abrasive cleanser and plastic scounng pad.
• Do not overload. Load glasses in upper rack only, See Loading section for tips.
•Use RINSE & HOLD cycle if dishes will not be washed at end of day.
•Plastic odor will be gone after several weeks use.
•If you do not use your dishwasher often set it to fill and pump out once
every week, This will help keep the seal moist and the garbage disposer clear.
• This will discolor the tub inter or w th extended use Check the detergent
dispenser for signs of any discoloration.
If dispenser is discolored, change to
detergent without any colorant.
•Using the RINSE & HOLD cycle after adding a dish to the load can decrease
the level of staining,
• This is a normal occurrence.
• Dial must be in OFF position for cup lid to close and latch properly. If you
unlatch the door and open it to dry your d shes, the D a does not advance
to OFF by itself.
