Dishwasher interior remains wet and dishes are not dry at the end of the cycle.

Safety first: Disconnect power before accessing the vent or fan.

• Use rinse aid: Ensure the rinse aid dispenser is filled and set to an appropriate level to promote sheeting and faster drying.
• Loading pattern: Avoid nesting dishes and blocking the vent outlet. Place plastic items on the top rack where they dry better.
• Check vent and fan: Inspect the vent on the inner door for blockages. If your model has an active drying fan, verify it runs during the drying phase; replace the fan assembly if inoperative.
• Allow standing time: After the cycle ends, wait 10–15 minutes before opening the door to allow residual heat to complete drying.

If drying remains poor, the heater or control drying algorithm may need professional evaluation.
