What To Do
Press the Start pad once and close the door within
4 seconds to start the dishwasher. Press and hold,
for 3 seconds, the Start pad a second time when the
dishwasher is running only if you wish to cancel the
cycle. If problem persists, call for service.
Press Start and close the door.
To turn off the double beep indicator (or re-activate it if
it was previously turned off), press the Heated Dry/Dry
Boost pad 7 times within 5 seconds. A triple beep will
sound to indicate the end-of-cycle beep option has been
turned on or off.
See the Care and Cleaning section.
Make sure inlet water temperature is correct (see the
USING THE DISHWASHER section). Turn on the
hot water faucet nearest the dishwasher, let run until
the water temperature stops rising. Then start the
dishwasher and turn off the faucet. This ensures the
entering water is hot. Select Wash Temp Boost/High if
available.
Turn on a faucet. Is water coming out more slowly
than usual? If so, wait until pressure is normal before
using your dishwasher. Normal water pressure to the
dishwasher should be 20-120 psi.
Clean the air gap or flush the disposer.
Refer to the Installation Instructions for proper drain line
installation.
Make sure large dishware does not block the detergent
dispenser or the wash arms. See the Loading section.
