PROBLEM

POSSIBLE CAUSE AND REMEDY

DETERGENT LEFT IN

DETERGENT DISPENSER

Action of water may be obstructed. Load dishwasher according to

directions. Be sure that a large plate or other item is not placed

directly in front of Detergent Dispenser.

Dispenser cover may not open. Tall item in silverware basket may be

resting against cup, preventing it from opening.

Detergent may be old. If very hard or caked in container, do not use.

Certain brands of detergents may perform better than others; try

another brand.

SPOTS AND FILMING

ON GLASSES AND

FLATWARE

You may notice some water spotting when you first get your dish

washer, However, this spotting should ce2ise after you have used the

dishwasher for a while. Automatic dishwashing will remove the in

visible grease film acquired from hand dishwashing. If spotting persists,

the cause may be one or more of the following:

• Extremely hard water

• Low water temperature

• Overloading

• Improper loading

• Use of too little detergent

• Use of too much detergent

• Use of old detergent

• Use of low-phosphate detergent

Rinse agent container empty (on dishwashers having this feature).

Check level. Fill if necessary. On models not having this, a solid wet

ting agent may be used.

Use of low-phosphate detergent: see page 7.

Due to varying local water conditions and personal preferences, please

try several brands of suggested detergents to find one that gives the

best results for you. See page 7.

Detergent dispenser does not open. Open cup manually and remove

caked detergent. If cup still does not open automatically, call service

man to adjust.

Water is not hot enough—it should be between 140° F. and 150° F. as it

enters the dishwasher.
