Rinse aid is not being dispensed; dishes are wet and have poor sheeting.

Safety first: Wear gloves when handling rinse aid chemicals.

Step-by-step checks:

• Check supply: Confirm the rinse aid container is not empty and the pickup tube is submerged.
• Prime the line: Use the pump’s prime function to remove air from the line until rinse aid flows steadily.
• Inspect tubing and injector: Look for kinks or blockages in the tubing and at the injection point into the rinse line. Clean or replace as needed.
• Test pump operation: Energize the pump in test mode. Replace the pump if it fails to run when powered.

When to call a technician: If the control does not energize the pump or the injection point is inaccessible, contact a CMA technician.
