Problem

May Be Caused By

What to Do

Chipping or breaking

of glassware

Improper loading

Do not overload. Load between rack prongs, not

over them. Glasses loaded over prongs will not be

supported and may chip or break. Make sure glassware

is secure and can’t come loose. Always use the top

rack for delicate items.

Dishes are not clean

Spray arms do not rotate

properly

Make sure that both spray arms rotate freely. Make

sure that items do not obstruct movement of spray

arms. If necessary, clear any obstructions.
Make sure holes in spray arms are not blocked. If

necessary, clean spray arms. See page 15.

Incorrect detergent use

Use only correct amount of dishwasher detergent

according to water hardness. See page 8. Fill

dispenser only when ready to start the dishwasher.

Do not use old or caked detergent. Store dishwasher

detergent in dry place and in a closed container.

Change the dishwasher detergent if results are still

poor.

Cycle selected is too short

Select normal or heavy wash cycle.

Incorrect loading

Make sure dishes and flatware are loaded properly.

See Loading Your Dishwasher section. Make sure

all items are loaded securely and do not tip over. Avoid

placing very tall glasses in the corners of the rack.

Filter system clogged or not

installed properly

Make sure filter system is clean and properly installed.

See page 13.

Detergent build-up in

dishwashing compartment

Pour a teaspoon to tablespoon of citric acid crystals

or white vinegar into the pre-wash compartment in

the detergent dispenser. Run a normal cycle with no

dishes.

Chucks of food left on

dishes or in dishwasher

compartment due to drain

outlet cover being removed

Check to make sure drain outlet cover is in place. See

page 14.
