Champion Poor Drying / Rinse Aid or Final Rinse Issue

Dishes come out wet and do not dry properly, even though the cycle completes with no error code.

Possible Causes

Insufficient rinse aid dosing, Low final rinse temperature, Clogged rinse nozzles, Overloading or improper racking

How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Allow racks to cool before handling.

Improving drying:

  • Check rinse aid level and setting: Ensure the Champion rinse aid reservoir is filled and increase the dosing rate slightly if spotting or wet dishes persist.
  • Verify final rinse temperature: Observe the rinse temperature gauge; it should reach the specified sanitizing temperature. If low, troubleshoot the booster heater.
  • Clean rinse arms and nozzles: Remove rinse arms and soak in descaling solution to clear mineral deposits from nozzles.
  • Adjust loading practices: Avoid stacking items and ensure glasses are angled for drainage. Allow racks to sit briefly after the cycle to air dry.

When to call a technician: If rinse temperature cannot be maintained, the booster heater or control system may need professional repair.
