BEFORE CALLING FOR SERVICE

Problem Possible Causes Solutions

operate

Door is not completely closed.

Make sure that the door is completely closed and

latched.

Power supply or power cord is not con-

nected.

Connect the power supply or cord properly.

Fuse is blown or circuit breaker tripped. Replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker.

Dishwasher operates too

long

Dishwasher is connected to cold water.

Check the water supply connection or water heater set-

ting. (Heating cold water takes longer.)

Odor

The previous cycle was stopped before

completion and residual water remains in

the dishwasher.

There is food in the bottom of the unit or in

the lter.

Unwashed dishes are left in the unit for a

long time.

Turn on the power, run the Cancel cycle option to re-

move the residual water, then run the Quick cycle using

detergent but with the dishwasher empty.

Clean the lter and the interior according to the “Care

and Cleaning” section of the owner’s manual.

Run an empty cycle with detergent, or run an empty

cycle with one cup of white vinegar in a dishwasher safe

glass or bowl placed on the upper rack.

(Vinegar is an acid, and with constant use it could dam-

age your appliance.)

Water remains in tub

after completion of cycle

Drain hose is kinked or clogged. Adjust hose or clear blockage.

Spots and lming on

dishes

Low water temperature.

Water supply should be at least 120°F for best wash

performance.

Wrong amount of detergent used. Use the recommended amount of detergent.

Overloading. Do not overload the dishwasher.

Improper loading. See the Using Your Dishwasher section.

Insucient water pressure. Water pressure should be between 20 and 120 psi.

Insucient detergent.

Add the recommended amount of detergent. See the

Using Your Dishwasher section.

Rinse aid dispenser is empty. Rell rinse aid dispenser.

Extremely hard water

The best way to eliminate spots on your dishes is to install a whole house water softener in your home. If

a water softener is already installed or you do not plan on installing one, try adding the “Extra Rinse” op-

tion as part of the wash cycle to help minimize this condition. To add an extra rinse to the cycle, select the

wash cycle and then press the RINSE button.

NOTE: Selecting “Extra Rinse” will increase cycle times and water usage.

To remove hard water build up in the tub

Remove all dishes, silverware and the silverware holder from the dishwasher. Only the racks should

remain

in the tub.

Fill a measuring cup with white vinegar, approximately 14~17 ounces (400~500mL), and place the mea-

suring cup in the lower rack.

Run a Normal cycle and select ExtraRinse and Sanitary then close the door.

DO NOT USE DETERGENT

NOTE: Make sure to let the dishwasher complete the entire cycle. This cleaning method should only be

done as needed.
