If your dishwasher is not draining, check for blockages in the drain hose, filter, and garbage disposal. Make sure the drain hose is not kinked and is positioned correctly. Clean any clogs or debris from the filter and hose.
Ensure that the dishes are loaded correctly, avoiding overcrowding. Use the appropriate amount of detergent and select the right wash cycle for the load. Regularly clean the spray arms and filters to maintain optimal performance.
Unusual noises can be caused by items in the dishwasher rattling or the spray arm hitting dishes. Ensure that dishes are loaded securely and check that the spray arms are not obstructed.
Regular maintenance includes cleaning the filters, checking and cleaning the spray arms, wiping down the door seals, and running a cleaning cycle with a dishwasher cleaner monthly to prevent buildup.
To clean the filters, remove them from the bottom of the dishwasher, rinse under running water, and use a soft brush to remove stubborn debris. Ensure they are fully dry before reinserting.
If the dishwasher is leaking, check the door seal for damage, ensure the dishwasher is level, and inspect the hoses and connections for any leaks or loose fittings.
Refer to the user manual for specific error code meanings and troubleshooting steps. Common solutions include resetting the dishwasher, checking water supply, and ensuring proper drainage.
A small amount of water left in the sump area is normal to prevent the seals from drying out. However, if there is more water than usual, check for obstructions in the drain path.
Use high-quality, phosphate-free dishwasher detergent in tablet or powder form for best results. Avoid using liquid dish soap or hand soap, as these can cause excessive suds and damage the dishwasher.
