Solutions
• Make sure that the door is completely closed
and latched.
• Connect the power supply or cord properly.
• Replace the fuse or reset the circuit breaker.
• Check the water supply connection or water
heater setting. (Heating cold water takes
longer.)
• Turn on the power, follow the instructions
under Canceling a Cycle to remove the
residual water, then run the Express Wash
cycle using detergent but with the dishwasher
empty.
• Clean the filter and the interior according to
the Cleaning the Filters and Dishwasher Care
sections of this Use & Care Guide.
• 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 damage your appliance.)
• Adjust hose or clear blockage.
• Select correct cycle based on soil level and
type of dishware being washed.
• Check water supply connection or water
heater setting.
• Use recommended detergent.
• Water pressure should be between 20 and 80
psi.
• Clean the spray arms.
• Make sure dishes do not block spray arm
rotation or interfere with detergent dispenser.
• Clean filters.
• Use less detergent and use a rinse aid to
minimize the problem.
