automatic dishwashers. Measure detergent
carefully. Try a different brand.

THE TUB
It is not normal for water to remain in the
bottom of the tub at the end of a cycle. If
water remains in the bottom of the tub at the
end of a cycle, the dishwasher may not be
draining properly. (See Dishwasher Does Not
Drain Properly, page 19.) The filter may also
need to be cleaned. (See Care of Glass Trap
Filter, page 15.) Note: It is normal to see a
small amount of water under the filter and
glass trap at the end of a cycle.
