Aluminum utensils have rubbed against dishes.
Door not opened immediately after Clean light

W h t a T o D o
Reposition the dishes, so the water from the lower spray arm
can flush the detergent cup. See the Loading section. Repo-
sition the tall utensils or heavy silverware that may be keep-
ing the dispenser cup door from opening. See the Loading
section.
Remove marks with a mild, abrasive cleaner.
For proper drying, the dishwasher door must be opened im-
mediately after the Clean light comes on.
Make sure inlet water temperature is at least 120°F (49°C).
Use Wash Temp Boost.
Select a higher cycle, such as Heavy.
Check the rinse agent dispenser and fill as required.
Make sure the door is firmly closed.
Make sure water valve (usually located under the sink) is
turned on.
A special filter in the water supply line is the only way to cor-
rect this problem. Contact a water softener company.
We recommend using a rinse aid to help prevent hard water
mineral deposits from forming. Run dishwasher with citric
acid to remove mineral deposits.
Replace fuse or reset circuit breaker. Remove any other ap-
pliances from the circuit.
In some installations, the power to the dishwasher is pro-
vided through a wall switch, often located next to the dis-
poser switch. Make sure it is on.
Unlock control panel. See the Getting started section.
Turn off power to the dishwasher (at circuit breaker or wall
switch) for 30 seconds, then turn back on.
Each pad must be touched within 30 seconds of the others.
To relight, touch any pad again or open the door and unlock.
Clean the air gap. See the Care and cleaning section.
Refer to the Installation Instructions for proper drain line in-
stallation.
If you have an air gap, clean it. See the Care and cleaning sec-
tion. (Built-In Models Only)
If the dishwasher drains into a disposer, run disposer clear.
Check to see if your kitchen sink is draining well. If not, you
may need a plumber.
