TROUBLESHOOTING

8
• Replace fuse or reset circuit
breaker.
• Make sure dishwasher is turned on
and door is closed. Plug in cord
securely.
• Check that water supply is connected
and the water is turned on.
• The system is designed to detect an
overflow. When it does, it shuts off the
circulation pump and turns on the drain
pump.
• Sound from soft food shredding
action and detergent cup opening.
• Ensure everything is secured in the
dishwasher.
• If you do not use often, dishwasher
may hum- remember to fill and pump
out appliance every week to keep the
seal moist.
• Use only dishwasher detergent to
avoid suds. If suds are present, open
the door and let suds evaporate.
• Always wipe rinse agent spills
immediately.
• Make sure that the rinse agent
dispener is filled.
• Select a stronger program.
• Make sure that the detergent dis-
penser and spray arms are not blocked
by large dishware.
• Remove all metal utensils from
dishwasher. See "Removing Hard
Water Spots from Dishes" pg 3.
• Re-load the dishes properly.
• A small amount of clean water around
the outlet on the tub button at the back
of the tub keeps the water seal
lubricated.
• Make sure the kitchen sink is draining
well. If the dishwasher drains into a
disposer, run it clear.
• Be careful not to overfill the rinse aid
dispenser. Spilled rinse aid could cause
oversudsing and lead to overflowing.
Wipe away any spills with a damp
cloth.
• Make sure the dishwasher is level.
• Steam coming through the vent by the
door latch is normal during drying and
water draining.
