PROBLEM SOLUTION
CYCLE RUNS TOO LONG
DISHWASHER NOT DRYING
NOTES:
• To use less water and reduce energy consumption you will encounter cycles that typically run
for up to 3 hours.
• A water heater setting of 120°F (49°C) is best. The dishwasher will delay longer while heating
cooler water.
• Some options will add time to the cycle. (See "Cycles and Options Information" section.) The
Heated Dry option adds 1/2 hour.
Try the 1 Hour Wash cycle.
Run the hot water at a faucet close to the dishwasher before starting the cycle.
NOTE: Plastic and items with nonstick surfaces are difficult to dry because they have a porous
surface which tends to collect water droplets. Towel drying may be necessary.
Use of rinse aid along with the Heated Dry option is needed for proper drying.
Proper loading of items can affect drying. (See specific loading instructions within this guide.)
Glasses and cups with concave bottoms hold water. This water may spill onto other items when
unloading.
• Unload the bottom rack first.
• Locate these items on the more slanted side of the rack for improved results.
Be sure the water is turned on to the dishwasher.
Check that the float is free from obstructions. (See "Parts and Features.")
Check for suds in the dishwasher. If foam or suds are detected, the dishwasher may not operate
properly or may not fill with water.
Be sure the cycle has completed (the blue light is on). If it has not, you will need to resume the
cycle by closing the door and pressing START.
If dishwasher is connected to a food waste disposer, be sure the knockout plug has been
removed from the disposer inlet.
Check for kinks in the drain hose.
Check for food obstructions in the drain or disposer.
Check your house fuse or circuit breaker.
NOTE: Extremely hard water mineral deposits can cause damage to your dishwasher and make
it difficult to achieve good cleaning. You may bring water samples to Sears to check your water
hardness level. A water softener is strongly recommended if your hardness is 15 grains or more. If
a water softener is not installed, the following steps may help:
Use a commercial cleaner designed for dishwashers once per month.
Clean the ULTRA WASH _;HEfilters at least once per month.
Always use a rinse aid.
Always use a high-quality, fresh detergent.
Use a detergent booster/water softener additive designed for dishwashers.
