20 Solutions to Common Problems DISHWASHER LEAKS DISHWASHER WON'T RUN • Use only fresh detergent designed for automatic dishwashers. Measure detergent carefully. Try a different brand. • Spilled rinse aid can cause foam and lead to overflowing. Wipe up any spills with a damp cloth. • Check to see that dishwasher is level (See Installation Instructions). NORMAL SOUNDS YOU WILL HEAR • Normal sounds include water fill, water circulation and motor sounds. • Pump pulsing will cause motor speed to increase and decrease at regular intervals during cycles. WATER IN THE BOTTOM OF 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 21.) The filter may also need to be cleaned. (See Care of Filter, page 16.) Note: It is normal to see a small amount of water under the filter at the end of a cycle. • Check to see if circuit breaker is tripped or if a fuse is blown. • Make sure water supply is turned on. • Check to see if cycle is set correctly. (See Operating Instructions, pages 5-8.) • Check to see if the Delay Start option has been selected. • Make sure door is closed and latched. • Check to see if the dishwasher is in the Child Lock mode. DISHWASHER DOES NOT DRAIN PROPERLY • If unit is hooked up to a garbage disposal, make sure the disposer is empty. • If unit is hooked up to a new food waste disposer, check to see if the "knockout" plug located inside the disposal inlet has been removed. • Check to see if drain hose is kinked. • Make sure cycle is complete, not in a pause. CYCLE TAKES A LONG TIME • Check to see if cycle is in a water heating delay. • Check to see if the delay start option has been selected. • Check to see if the sanitize option has been selected.
