Dishes are not getting clean; food remains on items after a full cycle.

Safety first: Turn off power before removing parts.

• Clean filters: Remove and thoroughly clean all filters and the sump area.
• Clean spray arms: Remove upper and lower spray arms. Rinse and use a toothpick to clear blocked jets.
• Check water temperature: Run hot water at the kitchen sink until it is hot before starting the dishwasher, to ensure hot fill.
• Use proper detergent: Use a high-quality dishwasher detergent and ensure the correct amount is used.

If performance remains poor and spray arms are clean, the circulation pump may be weak and require replacement.
