Cleaning the exterior
In most cases, regular use of a soft, damp cloth or sponge and a mild detergent is all that 
is necessary to keep the outside of your dishwasher looking nice and clean. If your 
dishwasher has a stainless steel exterior, a stainless steel cleaner is recommended. The 
Stainless Steel cleaner and Polish part number 31462A
Cleaning the interiorHard water minerals can cause a white film to build up on the inside surfaces, especially 
just beneath the door area.
Do not clean the dishwasher interior until it has cooled. You may want to wear rubber 
gloves. Do not use any type of cleanser other than dishwasher detergent because it may 
cause foaming or sudsing.
To clean interior
Make a paste with powdered dishwasher detergent on a damp sponge and clean.
OR
Use liquid automatic dishwasher detergent and clean with a damp sponge.
OR
See the vinegar rinse procedure in “Cloudy or spotted dishware (and hard water 
solution)” in “Troubleshooting” section.
NOTE: Run a normal cycle with dishwasher detergent after cleaning the interior.

Drain Air Gap
Dishwasher Maintenance Procedure
Vacation or Extended Time Without Use
Troubleshooting
First try the solutions suggested here or visit our website and reference FAQs (Frequently Asked Questions)
 to possibly avoid the cost of a service call.
In the U.S.A., www.kitchenaid.com     In Canada, www.kitchenaid.ca
     
Some state or local plumbing codes require the addition of a drain air gap between a 
built-in dishwasher and the home drain system. Check the drain air gap when your 
dishwasher is not draining well.
The drain air gap is usually located on top of the sink or countertop near the dishwasher. 
NOTE: The drain air gap is an external plumbing device that is not part of your 
dishwasher. The warranty provided with your dishwasher does not cover service costs 
directly associated with the cleaning or repair of the external drain air gap.
To clean the drain air gapClean the drain air gap periodically to ensure proper drainage of your dishwasher. With 
most types, you lift off the chrome cover. Unscrew the plastic cap. Then check for any soil 
buildup. Clean if necessary.
Cleaning the Dishwasher 
Clean the exterior of dishwasher with a soft, damp cloth and mild detergent. If your dishwasher has a stainless steel exterior, a stainless 
steel cleaner is recommended - Stainless Steel Cleaner and Polish Part Number 31462A.
Removal of Hard Water / Filming:
Recommended use of a monthly maintenance product such as affresh®† Dishwasher Cleaner Part Number W10282479. 
■Load your dishwasher (preferably with dishes affected by filming / hard water).
■Place tablet in main wash compartment of detergent dispenser.
■Select cycle/option best for heavily soiled dishes and start dishwasher.
NOTE: Recommended to use a premeasured detergent tablet or pack for regular daily use.
To reduce the risk of property 
damage■If you will not be using the dishwasher during the summer months, turn off the water 
and power supply to the dishwasher.
■Make sure the water supply lines are protected against freezing conditions. Ice 
formations in the supply lines can increase water pressure and damage your 
dishwasher or home. Damage from freezing is not covered by the warranty.
■When storing your dishwasher in the winter, avoid water damage by having your 
dishwasher winterized by authorized service personnel. 
PROBLEMSOLUTION
DISHWASHER DOES 
NOT RUNNOTE: It is normal for the dishwasher to repeatedly pause several times during a cycle.
If the Start/Resume light is blinking, close the door and push START/RESUME.
Be sure the door is closed and latched. 
Be sure you have disabled Sleep Mode by pressing either START/RESUME or CANCEL, or by 
opening and closing the door before selecting your cycle/option.
Check that there is not an interference with large casserole dishes and the wash system at the back of 
the dishwasher. Adjust loading as necessary to ensure door is closed and latched.
Be sure you have selected a cycle. See “Cycles and Options Descriptions” section.
Be sure there is power to the dishwasher. A circuit breaker or fuse may have tripped.
If lights other than Start/Resume blink and the unit will not run, you will need to call for service.

DETERGENT REMAINS IN 
THE DISPENSER OR
TABLET IS ON BOTTOM 
OF TUBCheck for dishware such as cookie sheets, cutting boards, or large containers, etc., that may be 
blocking the detergent dispenser from opening properly.
Be sure your detergent is fresh and lump free.
Be sure the cycle has completed (the Clean light is on). If it has not completed, you will need to 
resume the cycle by closing the door and pressing START/RESUME.
CYCLE RUNS TOO LONG NOTES: 
■To use less water and reduce energy consumption you will encounter cycles that typically run for 
up to 3 hours. 
■A water heater setting of 120°F (49°C) is best, the dishwasher will delay longer while heating 
cooler water.
■Some options will add time to the cycle. See “Cycles and Options Descriptions” section. The Heat 
Dry option adds approximately ¹⁄₂hour.
Try the 1 Hour Wash cycle.
Run the hot water at a faucet close to the dishwasher before starting the cycle.
DISHWASHER NOT DRYING NOTE: Plastic and items with nonstick surfaces are difficult to dry because they have a porous 
surface which tends to collect water droplets. Towel drying may be necessary.
Use of rinse aid along with the Heat Dry option is needed for proper drying.
Proper loading of items can affect drying. See specific loading instructions within this guide.
Glasses and cups with concave bottoms hold water. This water may spill onto other items when 
unloading. 
■Unload the bottom rack first.
■Locate these items on the more slanted side of the rack for improved results.
WILL NOT FILLBe sure the water is turned on to the dishwasher.
Check that the float is free from obstructions. See “Parts and Features.”
Check for suds in the dishwasher. If foam or suds are detected, the dishwasher may not operate 
properly or may not fill with water. See “Blinking Lights” in “Troubleshooting.”
WATER REMAINS IN THE 
TUB/WILL NOT DRAINBe sure the cycle has completed (the Clean light is on). If it has not, you will need to resume the cycle 
by closing the door and pressing START/RESUME.
If dishwasher is connected to a food waste disposer, be sure the knockout plug has been removed 
from the disposer inlet.
Check for kinks in the drain hose.
Check for food obstructions in the drain or disposer.
Check your house fuse or circuit breaker.
HARD WATER 
(WHITE RESIDUE ON 
DISHWASHER INTERIOR OR 
GLASSWARE)NOTE: Extremely hard water mineral deposits can cause damage to your dishwasher and make it 
difficult to achieve good cleaning. A water softener is strongly recommended if your hardness is 
15 grains or more. If a water softener is not installed, the following steps may help:
Use a commercial cleaner designed for dishwashers once per month.
Always use a rinse aid.
Always use a high-quality, fresh detergent.
Use a detergent booster/water softener additive designed for dishwashers.
ODORS NOTE: If the dishwasher is not used daily, you can run a rinse cycle with the partial load until a full 
load is ready to run, or use the Top Rack Only option (on some models) for partial loads.
Run a vinegar rinse through the dishwasher by putting 2 cups (500 mL) of white vinegar in an upright 
glass measuring cup in the lower rack. Run a normal cycle with the Heat Dry option turned off. Do not 
use detergent.
The dishwasher may not be draining properly, see “Water Remains In The Tub/Will Not Drain” in 
“Troubleshooting.”
NOISY NOTES:
■Surging sounds can occur periodically throughout the cycle while the dishwasher is draining.
■Normal water valve hissing may be heard periodically.
■A normal snap sound may be heard when the detergent dispenser opens during the cycle and 
when the door is opened at the end of the cycle.
■Improper installation will affect noise levels. 
A thumping sound may be heard if items extend beyond the racks and interfere with the wash arms. 
Readjust the dishware and resume the cycle.
PROBLEMSOLUTION 
						

							14
FOOD SOILS REMAIN 
ON DISHESBe sure the dishwasher is loaded correctly. Improper loading can greatly decrease the washing 
performance, see “Dishwasher Use”.
Select the proper cycle and option for the type of soils. The Heavy Duty cycle with the ProScrub
® (on 
some models) option can be used for tougher loads.
Be sure the incoming water temperature is at least 120°F (49°C). 
Use the proper amount of fresh detergent. More detergent is needed for heavier-soiled loads and hard 
water conditions.
Scrape food from dishes prior to loading (do not prerinse).
DISHES DIRTY/SUDS IN 
DISHWASHER/CYCLE NOT 
COMPLETEIf foam or suds are detected by the dishwasher sensing system, the dishwasher may not operate 
properly or may not fill with water.
Suds can come from:
■Using the incorrect type of detergent, such as dish detergent for hand washing dishes, laundry 
detergent, or hand soap. 
■Not replacing the rinse aid dispenser cap after filling (or refilling) the rinse aid.
■Using an excessive amount of dishwasher detergent.
Call for service.
If no water was present in the machine at any time during a heated wash cycle, the cycle will end and 
the Clean LED will not come on. See “Will Not Fill” in “Troubleshooting.”
DID NOT SANITIZEIf the sanitized light is blinking, the load is NOT sanitized. The cycle was interrupted in the final rinse, 
or the temperature for your water heater is set too low. Set your water heater to 120°F (49°C).
DAMAGE TO DISHWAREImproper loading can cause dishes to become chipped or damaged. See specific loading instructions 
within this guide.
BLINKING LIGHTSBlinking LEDs will occur when the cycle is paused or when the cycle has been interrupted by opening 
the door. In this case, the Start/Resume button LED, the Cycle Status Indicator LED(s), and the 
countdown bars on the Cycle Status Display all blink together to indicate that attention is needed. See 
Start or Resume a Cycle in the “Dishwasher Use” section. 
Blinking LEDs can also occur when certain errors have been detected. In this case, the Clean/
Complete LED will blink one time with a pause in between blinks. 
Call for service. 
CLOUDY OR SPOTTED 
DISHWARE (AND HARD 
WATER SOLUTION)NOTES:
■Liquid rinse aid is necessary for drying and to reduce spotting.
■Use the correct amount of detergent. 
Confirm that the cloudiness is removable by soaking the item in white vinegar for 5 minutes. If the 
cloudiness disappears, it is due to hard water. Adjust the amount of detergent and rinse aid. See 
“Hard Water White Residue On Dishwasher Interior Or Glassware in “Troubleshooting.” If it does not 
come clear, it is due to etching (see below).
Be sure the incoming water temperature is set at 120°F (49 ºC).
Try using the High Temp and Sani Rinse options.
To remove spotting, run a vinegar rinse through the dishwasher.
■Wash and rinse the affected dishware and load into dishwasher. Remove all silverware and metal 
items. Put 2 cups (500 mL) of white vinegar in a glass measuring cup in the lower rack. Run a 
normal cycle with the Heat Dry option turned off. No detergent is needed.
ETCHING (PERMANENT 
CLOUDINESS)This is an erosion of the surface of the glassware and can be caused by a combination of: water that 
is too hot, from using too much detergent with soft water or by pre-washing. Detergent needs food 
soil to act upon. If etching has occurred, the glassware is permanently damaged. To avoid further 
etching, adjust the detergent amount to match the water hardness, stop pre-washing, and use water 
heating options only when incoming water temperature is below 120°F (49°C).
LEAKING WATERBe sure dishwasher has been installed properly and is level.
Suds can cause the dishwasher to overflow. Measure the detergent accurately and use only 
detergents designed for use in a dishwasher. Less detergent is needed in soft water. Try another 
brand of detergent if sudsing continues.
To avoid rinse aid leaking from the dispenser, be sure the lid is securely attached and avoid overfilling.
TUB IS DISCOLORED NOTES: 
■High iron content in the water can discolor the tub.
■Tomato-based foods can discolor the tub or dishware.
A citrus-based cleaner can be used to clean.

INSTRUCCIONES IMPORTANTES DE SEGURIDAD
ADVERTENCIA: Cuando use la lavavajillas siga precauciones básicas, incluyendo las siguientes:
GUARDE ESTAS INSTRUCCIONES
■  Lea todas las instrucciones antes de usar la lavavajillas.
■  Use la lavavajillas únicamente para las funciones que fue 
diseñada.
■  Use únicamente detergentes o agentes de enjuague 
recomendados para ser usados en las lavavajillas y 
manténgalos fuera del alcance de los niños.
■  Al introducir los artículos para lavar:
1) Coloque los artículos puntiagudos de manera que no 
dañen el sello de la puerta
2) Introduzca los cuchillos filosos con los mangos hacia 
arriba para reducir el riesgo de cortaduras.
■  No lave artículos de plástico que no lleven la indicación 
“lavables en la lavavajillas” u otra similar. Lea las 
recomendaciones del fabricante para los artículos de 
plástico que no lleven tal indicación.
■  No toque el elemento de calefacción durante o 
inmediatamente después de usar la lavavajillas.
■  No haga funcionar la lavavajillas a menos que todos los 
paneles estén colocados debidamente en su lugar.
■  No juegue con los controles.
■  No abuse, ni se siente ni se pare sobre la puerta, la tapa o 
sobre las canastas de la lavavajillas.
■  Para reducir el riesgo de lesión, no permita que los niños 
jueguen dentro ni sobre la lavavajillas.
■  Bajo ciertas condiciones, un sistema de agua caliente que 
no ha sido usado por dos semanas o más puede producir 
gas hidrógeno. EL GAS HIDRÓGENO ES EXPLOSIVO. Si 
el sistema de agua caliente no ha sido usado por ese 
período, abra todas las llaves de agua caliente y deje que 
corra el agua por varios minutos antes de usar la 
lavavajillas. Esto permitirá que los gases acumulados 
escapen. Debido a que el gas es inflamable, no fume ni 
encienda ninguna llama abierta durante este tiempo.
■  Quite la puerta o la tapa del compartimiento de lavado 
cuando remueva o deje de usar para siempre una vieja 
lavavajillas.
INSTRUCCIONES DE CONEXIÓN A TIERRA
GUARDE ESTAS INSTRUCCIONES
■
  Para una lavavajillas con cable eléctrico y conexión a 
tierra:
La lavavajillas debe estar conectada a tierra. En caso de 
funcionamiento defectuoso o avería, la conexión a tierra 
reduce el riesgo de choque eléctrico al establecer una ruta 
de menor resistencia para la corriente eléctrica. La 
lavavajillas viene equipada con un cable eléctrico que tiene 
un conductor para conexión a tierra y un enchufe con 
conexión a tierra. El enchufe debe ser conectado a un 
contacto apropiado que esté instalado y conectado a tierra 
de acuerdo con todos los códigos y ordenanzas locales.
ADVERTENCIA: La conexión inadecuada del 
conductor de conexión a tierra puede resultar en riesgo de choque eléctrico. Pregunte a un electricista 
calificado o a un agente de servicio si no está seguro si 
la lavavajillas está adecuadamente conectada a tierra. 
No modifique el enchufe que viene con la lavavajillas. Si 
no cabe en el contacto, pida que un electricista 
calificado instale un contacto apropiado.
■
  Para lavavajillas con conexión permanente:
Esta lavavajillas debe estar conectada a un sistema de 
cableado de metal permanente, conectado a tierra, o se 
debe tender un conducto para la conexión a tierra del 
equipo con los conductores de circuito y conectado a la 
terminal de tierra del equipo o al conductor de 
suministro de la lavavajillas.
Peligro de Vuelco
No use la lavavajillas antes de estar completamente instalada.
No se apoye en la puerta abierta.
No seguir estas instrucciones puede ocasionar heridas serias o cortaduras.

PUESTA EN MARCHA/REFERENCIA RÁPIDA (VARÍA SEGÚN EL MODELO)
IMPORTANTE: No bloquee el depósito del 
detergente.
Los artículos altos pueden 
bloquear la puerta del 
depósito si los coloca en la 
canasta inferior. Los moldes 
para galletas y las tablas para 
cortar pueden bloquear 
fácilmente el depósito si los 
coloca en la parte izquierda 
de la lavavajillas. Si después 
de finalizado un ciclo hay 
detergente dentro del 
depósito o en el fondo de la 
tina, el depósito quedó 
bloqueado. 
Secado - el agente de enjuague es fundamental.
Deberá usar un agente de 
secado, como puede ser un 
agente de enjuague, para un 
buen rendimiento de secado 
(se incluye una muestra). El 
agente de enjuague junto con 
la opción de Heat Dry 
(Secado con calor) le 
proporcionarán el mejor 
secado y evitarán que se 
forme humedad excesiva en 
el interior de la lavavajillas.
1 Hour Wash (Lavado en 1 hora) – cuando necesita 
resultados rápidos.
Las lavavajillas eficaces funcionan por más 
tiempo para ahorrar agua y energía, de la 
misma manera que se ahorra gasolina 
cuando se conduce un automóvil despacio. 
Cuando necesite resultados rápidos, el 
Lavado de 1 hora limpiará la vajilla usando un 
poco más de agua y energía. Seleccione la 
opción de Heat Dry (Secado con calor) para 
acelerar los tiempos de secado (agrega 
aproximadamente 35 minutos al ciclo de 
1 Hour Wash (Lavado de 1 hora).
USE RINSE AID FOR
BETTER DRYING

Ciclo Heavy Duty (Intenso) para la limpieza de 
suciedad rebelde
Se recomienda el ciclo Heavy Duty (Intenso) 
para las cargas con suciedad rebelde. Úselo 
para ollas, sartenes, cacerolas y vajilla muy 
sucias que sean difíciles de limpiar. No 
necesita enjuagar los platos previamente, sólo 
raspe la suciedad y cárguelos.

Presione START/RESUME (Inicio/Reanudar) cada 
vez que agregue un plato.
IMPORTANTE: Si alguien abre la puerta 
(como puede ser para agregar un plato – aún 
durante la opción de Delay Hours – Horas de 
retraso), deberá presionarse el botón de Start/
Resume (Inicio/Reanudar) cada vez.
Si el botón de START/RESUME (Inicio/
Reanudar) está ubicado en la parte superior 
de la puerta: Empuje la puerta y ciérrela con 
firmeza en menos de 3 segundos de haber 
presionado START/ RESUME (Inicio/
Reanudar). Si la puerta no se ha cerrado en 
menos de 3 segundos, el LED del botón de 
Inicio/Reanudar destellará, se escuchará un 
tono audible y el ciclo no comenzará.
Dosificación del detergente
Es posible usar demasiado detergente en su lavavajillas. Esto 
puede ocasionar corrosión en los platos. Vea “Agregue 
detergente”, en la sección “Uso de la lavavajillas” para 
determinar la cantidad de detergente necesario según la 
dureza del agua.
