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

Safety first: Turn off power if removing lower panels; for filter cleaning, power can remain on but avoid starting a cycle.

• Clean filters: Remove and thoroughly clean the fine and coarse filters under warm water.
• Clean spray arms: Remove spray arms and clear all jet holes with a toothpick. Rinse well.
• Check water temperature: Run hot water at the sink until hot before starting the dishwasher. Ensure water is at least 120°F (49°C).
• Use proper detergent: Use high-quality dishwasher detergent and keep rinse aid filled.
• Check circulation pump: If spray pressure seems weak even after cleaning, test and replace the GE Café circulation pump if necessary.
