To start a wash cycle, load your dishes, add detergent, select the desired program using the program selector button, and then press the start button. Ensure the door is closed properly.
First, check if the drain hose is kinked or clogged. Clean the filter and ensure the sink drain is not blocked. If the problem persists, inspect the pump for obstructions.
Remove the lower rack, locate the filter at the bottom of the dishwasher, twist it counterclockwise to remove, and clean it under running water with a brush. Reinstall by twisting it clockwise.
Ensure that you are using a rinse aid, as it helps with drying. Also, check if the selected program includes a drying phase, and verify that the heat settings are appropriate.
To reset the dishwasher, press and hold the start button for about 3 seconds until the display shows a reset confirmation. This will cancel the current cycle and drain the water.
Regularly clean the filter, check and clean the spray arms, wipe the door seals, and run a cleaning cycle with a dishwasher cleaner to remove limescale and grease buildup.
Place larger items like pots and pans on the bottom rack, smaller items like glasses and cups on the top rack, and ensure that nothing blocks the spray arms. Avoid overloading to allow water circulation.
Check for items that may have fallen off the racks and are obstructing the spray arms. Ensure the dishwasher is level and that no dishes are touching or vibrating against each other.
Refer to the user manual for the specific error code. Common solutions include checking water supply, cleaning filters, or inspecting the drainage system. Reset the dishwasher if necessary.
No, you should not use regular dish soap. Always use dishwasher detergent specifically designed for automatic dishwashers to prevent excessive suds and potential damage.
