20 Solutions to Common Problems Vapor at Vent • Water vapor escapes from the vent during the drying part of cycle. This is normal. • 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). Dishwasher Won't Run or Fill (error code i10) • Check to see if circuit breaker is tripped or if a fuse is blown. • Check to see if the water supply is turned on and the pressure of the water supply is not too low. (Contact your local water company). • Check to see if the water tap is open and is not clogged. • Check to see if cycle is set correctly. (See Operating Instructions). • Check to see if the dishwasher is not set for Delay Start. • Check and insure the door is closed and latched. • Check to see if the filter in the inlet hose is not clogged and is free of kinks and bends. Dishwasher Does Not Drain Properly (error code i20) • If unit is hooked up to a food waste disposer, make sure the disposer is empty. • Check to see if the knockout plug has been removed from inside the food waste disposer inlet. • Check the sink spigot is not clogged. • Check to see if drain hose is free of kinks and bends. • Check to see if the cycle is complete, not in a pause. Dishwasher has an Odor • Soiled dishes left in dishwasher too long can create an odor. Use Rinse cycle. • There will be a "new" smell when first installed. This is normal. • Check to see if unit is draining properly. (See Dishwasher Does Not Drain Properly). Stains on Tub Interior • Washing large amounts of dishware with tomato based soil can cause a pink/orange appearance. This will not affect performance and will gradually fade over time. Pre-rinsing or using the Rinse cycle will reduce the chance of staining. Using no heat dry option will lessen staining. Removing Spots and Film Hard water can cause lime deposit buildup on the interior of the dishwasher. Dishes and glasses may also get spots and film for a number of reasons. (See Glassware/Flatware Spotted or Cloudy section). To remove buildup, and film, clean using the following instructions: 1. Load clean dishes and glasses in normal manner. Do not load any metal utensils or silverware. 2. Do not add detergent. 3. Select the NORMAL WASH cycle. Press START pad. Close and latch the door. 4. Allow dishwasher to run until it starts the second water fill (approximately 10 minutes). 5. Unlatch an and open door and pour 2 cups of white vinegar into the bottom of dishwasher. 6. Close and latch door and allow cycle to finish.
