To start a wash cycle, load the dishwasher, add detergent, close the door, select the desired cycle on the control panel, and press the 'Start' button.
Check the drain hose for kinks or clogs, ensure the garbage disposal cap is removed if connected, and clean the filter located at the bottom of the dishwasher.
It is recommended to clean the filter every month to ensure optimal performance and prevent clogs.
Use a high-quality automatic dishwasher detergent in powder, liquid, or tablet form. Avoid using hand dishwashing detergents.
Ensure the spray arms are not obstructed, check for adequate water temperature, and verify that the correct amount of detergent is being used.
Regularly clean the filter, check and clean spray arms, inspect door seals for debris, and run an empty cycle with a dishwasher cleaner monthly.
To reset the dishwasher, press and hold the 'Start/Reset' button for about 3 seconds until the lights on the control panel blink.
Unusual noises may be caused by items blocking the spray arms, loose racks, or foreign objects in the filter or pump area. Check and adjust as necessary.
Ensure the water supply valve is open, check for kinks in the water supply line, and inspect the inlet valve for any clogs.
Use a rinse aid to enhance drying, ensure the 'Heated Dry' option is selected, and avoid overloading the dishwasher to allow proper air circulation.
