♦ Not using a rinse aid. Use a rinse
aid, such as Jet Dry according to the
dishwasher’s User’s Guide.
♦ Low water temperature. Adjust
water temperature so it enters the
dishwasher at 140° F or use a water
heating option, if available.
POOR DRYING
POSSIBLE CAUSES:
♦ Using the Air Dry cycle. Switch to
heated drying.
♦ Low water temperature. It should
be 140° F as it enters the dishwasher.
Either adjust water heater or use a
water heating option, if available.
♦ Not using a rinse aid such as Jet
Dry.
♦ Placing detergent in the dispenser
cup incorrectly. Reread the User’s
Guide.
♦ Using too little detergent.
Detergent contains ingredients which
help to improve drying. Increase the
amount of detergent used as directed
on page 17.
♦ Dishes nesting. Be sure dishwasher
is being loaded properly.
♦ Some items are difficult to dry in a
dishwasher even under the best of
circumstances. Cups and glasses
with concave bottoms will hold
water at the end of the cycle.
Plastics have a porous surface that
holds droplets of water and is
difficult to dry. Towel drying of
these items may be necessary.
THE DISHWASHER
DETERGENT NOT WASHED OUT OF
DISPENSER
POSSIBLE CAUSES:
♦ Water temperature too low. Make
sure the water temperature is 140° F.
as it enters the dishwasher or use a
water heating option, if available.
♦ Cup wet when granular detergent
is added. Dry detergent cup before
filling.
♦ Detergent left in cup for a long
time period. Detergent should not
be added until you are ready to start
the dishwasher (unless using the
delay start feature found on select
models.)
♦ Blocked cup. Check to be sure no
utensils such as a pan or cookie sheet
are place in the front of the lower
rack so the detergent cup is blocked
from the water action which flushes
the detergent from the cup.
♦ Detergent placed in wrong side of
cup. Place detergent in right cup (as
you are facing dishwasher) and close
cover. If using a Regular or Pots &
Pans cycle, place detergent in left
cup as well.
♦ Overfilling cup. This can cause the
cover to stick and prevent the
detergent from being washed out of
the cup.
