Question

If the rinse button is always lit, is it only running that cycle?

Community Answer

No, it means that your dishwasher needs the addition of liquid rinse aid. There are several brands available.

Question

The dishwasher's stainless steel tub is dirty. How do I clean it?

Community Answer

Start the dishwasher on the hottest cycle, and wait wait 10 mins. Open the door and add a cup of white vinegar into the water. Close the door, and let the dishwasher complete the cycle.

Question

What do I do if the intake/drain light comes on after the first cycle and the machine stops with the light blinking? I have to restart over and over to get the wash finished.

Community Answer

I had this exact issue. The verdict was too much soap. I now measure 1 teaspoon of gel and that solved the problem.
