BEFORE YOU CALL
Dishware Stained or Discolored
• 
Tea and coffee can stain cups.  
Remove the stains by hand washing in 
a solution of 1/2 cup (120 ml) bleach 
and one quart (1L) of warm water.  
Rinse thoroughly.
• 
Iron deposits in water can cause a 
yellow or brown fi lm.  A special fi lter 
installed in the water supply line will 
correct this problem. (See Removing 
Spots and Film).
• 
Aluminum utensils can leave gray/
black marks when they rub against 
other items.  Load Properly.
• 
Certain high acid foods can cause 
discoloration of stainless steel and 
plastics if allowed to sit for a long 
period.  Use the Rinse Only cycle 
or rinse by hand if not operating 
dishwasher at once.
• 
Mixing stainless steel and silver 
utensils in silverware basket can cause 
pitting of the stainless steel blades.  
Avoid mixing stainless steel and silver.
Etching
• 
Using too much detergent especially 
in soft or softened water causes 
damage that looks like a fi lm but 
cannot be removed.
• 
Adjust the amount of detergent 
based on the water hardness. (Check 
Detergent Chart).
• 
Lower the water temperature 
by selecting one of the lower 
temperature options.
Detergent Left in Cups
• 
Detergent may be old.  Discard and 
use fresh detergent.
• 
Be sure the dish load doesn’t block 
spray from entering the detergent 
cup.
• 
Check to see if cycle has been 
completed.
• 
Make sure items do not prevent the 
detergent dispenser from opening.
Dishwasher Leaks
• 
Check that the door gasket is pressed 
into its mounting channel, reaches to 
the bottom of the tub and does not 
extend beyond the end rib so as to 
interfere with door closure.
• 
Spilled rinse aide can cause foam and 
lead to overfl owing.  Wipe up any 
spills with a damp cloth.
• 
Check to see that the dishwasher is 
level.  (See Installation Instructions).
• 
Avoid oversudsing by using the 
correct amount of detergent designed 
for automatic dishwashers.
• 
Check to see that dishwasher is level. 
(See Installation Instructions).
Water in Bottom of Tub
• 
Water left in the tub bottom after 
the cycle is complete is not normal.  
If water remains in the bottom of 
the tub, the dishwasher may not be 
draining properly. (See Dishwasher 
Does not Drain Properly).
Cycle Takes a Long Time
• 
The cycle may have been automatically 
lengthened to reach key temperatures 
due to some factor such as a cool water 
supply or a large load of dishes.
• 
Delay Start option may have been 
selected.
• 
Choose lower temperature options to 
shorten the cycle.
• 
Cycles that are soil-sensing adjust 
automatically to assure a good wash 
- heavier soils will elicit a longer cycle 
response.
Vapor at Vent
• 
Spilled rinse aid can cause foam and 
lead to overfl owing.  Wipe up any spills 
with a damp cloth.
Normal Sounds You Will Hear
• 
Normal sounds include water fi ll, 
water spray, draining and motor 
sounds.
• 
There is a noticeable change in 
sound when the wash action switches 
between the lower and middle spray 
arm.  This is normal since each spray 
arm has its own sound.
• 
It is normal for the dishwasher to 
pause (no sound) when the wash 
action is switching between the lower 
and middle spray arms.
