Dishwashing - Washability

Food Specks or Poorly Cleaned Dishes Occasionally, a few items may have unremoved food soil left on them at the end of the cycle. POSSIBLE CAUSES: Water temperature is too low. For optimum results, water heating dishwashers require a minimum of 120° F. inlet water and regular use of heating options. Non-water heating dishwashers need 140°F. inlet water for optimum results. Improper fill. After the fill, the water level should be about even with the heating element in the bottom of the dishwasher. If the water level is low, check to assure that other hot water activities are not occurring at this time and that the dishwasher is level front to back and side to side. Old or caked dishwasher detergent may not dissolve completely. Purchase fresh detergent and store detergent in a dry place (not under the kitchen sink).
