Place larger and more heavily soiled items on the bottom rack, ensuring they do not block the spray arms. Use the top rack for smaller items like cups and glasses. Avoid overcrowding to ensure optimal cleaning performance.
Check for blockages in the filter, drain hose, and sump area. Ensure that the dishwasher is level and that the drain hose is not kinked or clogged. Clean the filter regularly to prevent drainage issues.
To clean the filter, remove the lower rack and twist the filter assembly counterclockwise to remove it. Rinse the filter under running water and use a soft brush to remove any debris. Reinstall the filter by aligning it and twisting it clockwise.
Perform a monthly clean of the filter and spray arms, inspect the door seal for debris, and run an empty cycle with a dishwasher cleaner every 1-2 months to maintain optimal performance.
Spots can be caused by hard water. Ensure you are using a rinse aid and that the dishwasher's salt reservoir is filled. Adjust the rinse aid dosage setting if necessary.
To reset the dishwasher, press and hold the start button for about 3 seconds until the control panel lights up, indicating a reset. Release the button and select the desired cycle to restart.
Ensure the dishwasher door is fully closed and latched. Check the power supply and circuit breaker to ensure power is reaching the appliance. Also, verify that the selected cycle has been properly activated.
Ensure the dishwasher is properly leveled and that it is not in contact with adjacent cabinetry. Inspect the spray arms and filter for obstructions, and ensure dishes are loaded correctly to prevent them from clattering.
Check the door seal for damage or debris and ensure it is clean. Inspect the water inlet and drain hoses for leaks or loose connections. If the issue persists, contact a professional technician.
No, regular dish soap should not be used in dishwashers as it can create excessive suds and potentially damage the appliance. Always use detergent specifically designed for dishwashers.
