How do I fix suds in the tub of my GE GD 650-670 Dishwasher?
Suds in the tub are usually caused by using the wrong detergent or spilling rinse agent. Use only high-quality automatic dishwasher detergents to avoid sudsing, such as Cascade® Platinum™ ActionPacs™ or Finish® Quantum® Automatic Dishwashing Detergent. To remove suds, open the dishwasher and let them dissipate. Open the door, press and hold Start for 3 seconds, and close the door. Always wipe up rinse agent spills immediately.
Why is the Smart Assist light red on my GE GD 650-670 Dishwasher?
If the Smart Assist light is red, a potential problem has been detected with your machine. Use the SmartHQ App to identify and troubleshoot the potential problem. If you are not connected to WiFi, check your display for any codes and call for service.
Why is there a slight odor coming from my GE Dishwasher during the dry portion of the cycle?
This is normal when the Dry Boost option is used for the first time. It is caused by the heating of new parts and will disappear in a short time. No action is required.
