What To Do
If you have an air gap,
•
clean it.
Check to see if your kitchen
•
sink is draining well. If not,
you may need a plumber.
If the dishwasher drains
•
into a disposer, run
disposer clear.
See the
• About the display
section.
Use only automatic
•
dishwasher detergents to
avoid sudsing.
To remove suds from the
•
tub, open the dishwasher
and let suds evaporate.
Add 1 gallon of cold water
to the tub. Close and latch
the dishwasher. Pump out
water. Touch START, then
immediately touch RESET.
Repeat if necessary.
Always wipe up rinse agent
•
spills immediately.
Steam comes through the
•
vent by the door latch
during drying and when
water is being pumped out.
Some detergents contain
•
colorant (pigment or dyes)
that will discolor the tub
interior with extended use.
Check the detergent cup
for signs of any
discoloration. If cup is
discolored, change to
detergent without any
colorant.
