Ensure that dishes are not overlapping and that spray arms can spin freely. Place larger items like pots and pans on the bottom rack, and fragile items like glasses and cups on the top rack.
Check for obstructions in the drain hose or filter. Ensure the drain hose is not kinked and that the sink drain is not clogged. Cleaning the filter regularly can prevent this issue.
It is recommended to clean the filter every month to ensure optimal performance and prevent clogs.
Use a high-quality dishwasher detergent, preferably in tablet or gel form, specifically designed for automatic dishwashers. Avoid using liquid dish soap.
Ensure the rinse aid dispenser is filled, as rinse aid helps with the drying process. Also, use a high-temperature wash cycle and open the door slightly after the cycle to let steam escape.
White residue is often caused by hard water mineral deposits. Use a rinse aid and consider adding a water softener if your water is particularly hard.
Regularly clean the filter, wash the spray arms, and wipe down the door seals. Running an empty cycle with a cup of vinegar can help remove odors and mineral buildup.
To reset the dishwasher, turn it off and unplug it from the power source. Wait about 5 minutes, then plug it back in and turn it on. This can reset the control panel.
Ensure that no items are blocking the spray arms from rotating. Check for any loose items in the dishwasher and ensure it is level. Unusual noises can also be caused by a malfunctioning pump or motor.
Choose a normal cycle for everyday loads, an intensive cycle for heavily soiled pots and pans, and an eco cycle for energy-efficient washing of lightly soiled dishes. Refer to the user manual for specific cycle options.
