| Problem | Possible cause |
| Dishes do not dry | Rinse-aid dispenser is empty. Fill rinse-aid dispenser. |
| Indicator light(s) do not come on | A fuse may have blown or a circuit breaker tripped. Replace fuse or reset circuit breaker at your fuse box/breaker box. |
| Dishwasher does not start | Door of dishwasher not properly closed. Close dishwasher making sure that door latches. |
| Dishwasher runs a long time | If the dishwasher completes the cycle, but the run time seems exceptionally long it is probably due to cold incoming water. To avoid this problem it is recommended that before starting the dishwasher: open the hot water faucet at the sink nearest the dishwasher and run the water until it runs hot. Then turn off the water and start the dishwasher. |
| Machine cycle does not advance to rinse | Water line is closed or inlet fitter is blocked. Open water valve and/or check inlet filter. |
| Water not pumped from dishwasher | Kink in drain hose. Filter clogged. Kitchen sink clogged. Air gap (type installed at sink) clogged. Check drain hose and fine and coarse filters (see section titled CARE and CLEANING). Check kitchen sink to make sure it is draining well. If problem is kitchen sink not draining you may need a plumber rather than a serviceman for the dishwasher. |
| Detergent dispenser lid will not close | A program was not completely finished. |
| Lower spray arm does not rotate freely | Remove lower spray arm and clean arm and spray arm mounts. |
| White deposits left on dishes | Too little rinse-aid. |
| Streaks on glassware | Too much rinse-aid used. |
| Rattling noises | Utensils not properly arranged. |
| Suds in dishwasher | Incorrect type of detergent used. Use only automatic dishwasher detergents. |
| Unsatisfactory washing result | • Incorrect amount of detergent or rinse agent. • Utensils incorrectly arranged or rack overloaded. • Wash arm rotation blocked by utensils. • Filters not properly fitted into position. • Clogged nozzles in wash arm(s) • Unsuitable program selected. |
