! Check if the dishes are improperly loaded
(Too many dishes have been loaded.)
( Rearrange the dishes so they do not interfere with the nozzle
rotation and the detergent dispenser's cover operation.
Load only an appropriate number of dishes and
load your dishes as recommended.
Step 3 : Water (1)
! Check if the water temperature is low.
( Connect the water supply line to a hot water supply.
For best performance, the temperature of the supplied water should be 120 ˚F (49 ˚C).
Step 4 : Water (2)
! Check if water pressure is low.
( The water pressure should be between 20 and 120 psi (140 ~ 830 kPa).

! Check if the amount of detergent was inappropriate.
( Use the appropriate amount of automatic dishwasher detergent.
Step 8 : Detergent (3)
! Check if detergent remains in the dispenser.
(
Check for the position of dishware such as cookie sheets,
!")#$%&!
(
Check for the position of dishware such as cookie sheets,
cutting boards, or large containers, etc. that maybe
blocking the detergent dispenser from opening properly.
Rearrange the dishes so they do not interfere
with the detergent dispenser opening.
Step 10 : Nozzle
! Check if the spray nozzle is clogged.
( If the pump or spray nozzle is clogged by debris or food,
remove them. And advise customers to clean the nozzle as recommended.
Step 11 : Air Gap / Disposal
! Check if the air gap or the disposer is clogged.

Improper detergent
Hard water
Symptom
Spots and Filming on Glasses and Flatware
Step 1 : Detergent
! Check if the correct amount of effective detergent is being used.
( Advise customers to use recommended dishwasher detergents only.
(Refer to the manual)
- Do not use less than 1 tablespoon (15 g) per load.
- Detergent must be fresh to be effective.
-
Store detergent in a cool, dry area.
#6. Improper Operation
6-3. Not Clean – If Spots and Filming on Glasses and Flatware
!"*#$%&!
-
Store detergent in a cool, dry area.
- Heavy soil and/or hard water generally require extra detergent.
" Advise customers to use rinse agent
to remove spots and prevent new film buildup.
# If detergent is old or damp powder detergent, advise customers to use fresh detergent.
Step 2 : Hard Water
! In case of hard water, advise customers as followings.
- If water is extremely hard, a water softener may be required.
-The harder your water, the more detergent a load needs.
- To prevent the common hard-water problem of spotting and to help dishes dry better,
to add a rinse aid is recommended.
- If white residue inside your dishwasher is seen, occasionally try to dissolve it with
distilled white vinegar(or Lemon juice & White vinegar mixture).
Instead of using detergent, place a container with 2 cups of vinegar(or 1 cup of Lime
juice & 1 cup of white vinegar) in the bottom rack and run a normal cycle but without
sanitize option.
# How To Remove Spots and Films From Dishes
Try a white vinegar rinse. NOTE: This procedure is intended for occasional use only.
Vinegar is an acid, and using it too often could damage your dishwasher.
! Wash and rinse dishes. Do not use sanitize option. Remove all silverware or metal items.
" Put 2 cups (16 ounces [500 mL]) white vinegar in a glass or dishwasher-safe measuring
cup on the bottom rack.
# Run the dishwasher through a complete washing cycle. Do not use detergent.
Vinegar will mix with the wash water.

Symptom
Leaves Glasses with A Dim Finish
Step 1 : Detergent
! Check if water supplied is soft and too much detergent was used.
( Under load the dishwasher and use a rinse aid to minimize this.
This is called etching and is permanent. To prevent this from happening,
use less detergent if you have soft water. Wash glassware in the shortest cycle
that will get them clean.
#6. Improper Operation
6-4. Not Clean – If Leaves Glasses with A Dim Finish
!"+#$%&!
that will get them clean.
Step 2 : Silica Film or Etching
! In case of Silica film or etching :
(silica film is a milky, rainbow-colored deposit; etching is a cloudy film)
- Sometimes there is a water/chemical reaction with certain types of glassware.
This is usually caused by some combination of soft or softened water,
alkaline washing solutions, insufficient rinsing, and overloading the dishwasher.
It might not be possible to prevent the problem, except by hand washing.
To slow this process use a minimum amount of detergent but not less than 1
tablespoon (15 g) per load. Use a liquid rinse aid and under load the dishwasher to allow
thorough rinsing. Silica film and etching are permanent and cannot be removed.
Step 3 : Water Temperature
! If water temperature entering the dishwasher exceeds 150°F,
this could be etching. Lower the water heater temperature.
Causes
