How to Fix / Troubleshooting

  • Clean spray arms: Ensure upper spray arm jets are clear and aimed toward the dispenser area.
  • Adjust loading: Avoid placing tall items directly in front of the dispenser that block water flow.
  • Try powder or gel: As a test, use powder or gel detergent to see if performance improves.
