in dishwasher.

DISHES DON’T DRY

Make sure inlet water temperature is correct. (See How to Test Water 
Temperature section.) Try to use the Heated Wash option.

Unload the bottom rack first. Water from dishes in the top rack may be spilling into 
the bottom rack.

Check for improper loading. Dishes shouldn’t nest together. Avoid overloading.

Check the rinse agent dispenser to see that it’s not empty.

UNCLEAN DISHES

Check inlet water temperature. It should be at least 120°F. (See How to Test 

AND FLATWARE

An overall yellow or brown film on dishes or glassware can be caused by iron  
deposits in water. A special filter in the water supply line is the only way to correct  
this problem. Your water softener company can tell you about the filter.
