To start a wash cycle, first load your dishes and add detergent. Close the dishwasher door and select the desired wash program using the control panel. Press the start button to begin the cycle.
Ensure the dishwasher is plugged in and the circuit breaker is not tripped. Confirm that the door is fully closed and the water supply is turned on. If the problem persists, consult the user manual or contact Caple support.
To clean the filter, remove the lower dish rack and locate the filter at the bottom of the dishwasher. Twist and lift the filter out, then rinse it under running water to remove debris. Replace the filter by aligning it and twisting it back into place.
Check for clogs in the drain hose and ensure it is not kinked. Clean the filter and remove any debris from the bottom of the dishwasher. If the issue continues, there may be a problem with the drain pump.
Regular maintenance includes cleaning the filter, checking and cleaning spray arms, wiping the door seal, and running an empty cycle with a dishwasher cleaner to remove buildup.
To adjust the rinse aid setting, open the rinse aid dispenser cap. Use a screwdriver to adjust the setting dial to the desired level, usually between 1 and 6, with higher numbers indicating more rinse aid.
A foul odor may result from food debris trapped in the filter or spray arms. Regular cleaning of these parts and running a cleaning cycle with vinegar or a dishwasher cleaner can help eliminate odors.
To reset the dishwasher, turn it off and unplug it from the power outlet. Wait a few minutes, then plug it back in and turn it on. This can help resolve minor glitches.
Ensure that the rinse aid dispenser is filled, as rinse aid helps with drying. Select a longer drying cycle if available. Make sure dishes are not nested together, which can trap moisture.
Yes, you can wash plastic items, but it's best to place them on the top rack to avoid exposure to the heating element. Check that the items are labeled dishwasher safe.
