To start a wash cycle, load your dishwasher, add detergent, close the door securely, select your desired wash cycle using the control panel, and press the Start button.
Check the drain hose for any kinks or clogs, ensure the garbage disposal cap is removed if connected, and clean the filter at the bottom of the dishwasher.
Remove the bottom rack, locate the filter at the bottom of the dishwasher, twist and lift it out, then rinse it under warm water to remove debris.
Ensure the rinse aid dispenser is full, select a heated drying cycle, and check that the vent is not blocked.
To reset the dishwasher, press and hold the Start/Reset button for a few seconds until the control panel lights blink, then release.
Check for any items that may have fallen into the bottom of the dishwasher, ensure that dishes are not touching spray arms, and inspect the pump for obstructions.
It is recommended to clean your dishwasher monthly, including the filter, spray arms, and door seals, to maintain optimal performance.
High-quality dishwasher detergent, either in the form of gel, powder, or pods, is recommended for best cleaning results.
Use a rinse aid, ensure proper loading to allow airflow, and select a heated dry option if available.
Make sure the spray arms are not clogged, check that the water inlet valve is working, use the correct amount of detergent, and ensure dishes are loaded according to the manual.
