Problem
Detergent cup lid
latched accidentally
by user
Water standing in
the bottom of the tub
Water won't pump
out of the tub
Suds in the tub
Stained tub interior
Possible Causes
This is normal
Drain is clogged
Correct detergent
wasn't used
Rinse agent
was spilled
Detergent with
colorant was used
What To Do
Open the door and press
•
the START/RESET pad
three times within two
seconds. The detergent
cup will trip.
A small amount of clean
•
water around the outlet on
the tub bottom at the back
of the tub keeps the water
seal lubricated.
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.
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
the door until it locks into
place. Pump out water by
pressing START/RESET, then
immediately press START/RESET
again. Repeat if necessary.
Always wipe up rinse agent
•
spills immediately.
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.
