What To Do
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.
Cascade® Automatic
Dishwashing Detergent has
been approved for use in all
GE dishwashers.
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.
Cascade® Automatic
Dishwashing Detergent has
been approved for use in all
GE dishwashers.
Use of the RINSE & HOLD cycle
•
(on some models) after adding
the dish to the load can
decrease the level of staining.
