blocks
the wash arms.

to see that it's not empty. (See page 5.)

is correct. (See page 4.)

loading.
Dishes shouldn't
nest together.
Avoid overloading.
• Unload
the bottom rack first. Water from dishes in the top rack may be spilling into
the bottom
rack.
• Plastic items have a porous
surface and tend to hold water. Towel drying may be
required.

will hold water.

the detergent
cup. If you used a
powder
detergent,
open the cup and remove any caked-on
detergent.
If the cup still
doesn't
open automatically,
call for service.
• Detergent
may be old. If the powder
detergent
is hard or caked in the box, throw it
away. Be sure to store detergent
in a cool, dry place.
