TROUBLESHOOTING TIPS
Before Calling For Service
Reviewing the charts on the following pages may save you from calling for service.
Problem Possible Causes What To Do
Dishwasher doesn't 
start
Fuse blown, or the 
circuit break tripped.
Replace fuse or reset circuit breaker. 
Remove any other appliances sharing 
the same circuit with the dishwasher.
Power supply is not
turned on.
Make sure the dishwasher is turned 
on and the door is closed securely.
Make sure the power cord is properly 
plugged into the wall socket.
Check that the water supply is 
connected properly and the water 
is turned on.
Door of dishwasher 
not properly closed.
Make sure to close the door 
properly and latch it.
Water not pumped 
Twisted or trapped 
drain hose.
Filter clogged.
Kitchen sink clogged.
Check the drain hose.
Check the kitchen sink to make sure 
it is draining well. If the problem is 
the kitchen sink that is not draining,
you may need a plumber rather than 
a serviceman for dishwashers.
Suds in the tub Wrong detergent.
Water pressure is low
Use only the special dishwasher 
detergent to avoid suds. If this occurs, 
open the dishwasher and let suds 
evaporate. Add 1 gallon of cold water 
to the bottom of the dishwasher. 
Close the dishwasher door, then select 
any cycle. Initially, the dishwasher will 
drain out the water. Open the door 
after draining stage is complete and 
check if the suds have disappeared.
Repeat if necessary.
Check the coarse filter.
