Dishwasher runs but dishes are not getting clean; food remains on dishes and glasses are cloudy.

Safety: Turn off power before removing lower components if needed.

• Clean spray arms: Remove upper and lower Samsung spray arms. Rinse under water and use a toothpick to clear blocked jets.
• Clean filter and sump: Remove the filter assembly and clean thoroughly. Check the sump for debris that could restrict pump intake.
• Use proper detergent: Use high-quality dishwasher detergent and ensure rinse aid is filled, especially in hard water areas.
• Check circulation pump: If spray arms are clean but water pressure seems weak, the circulation pump may be failing and should be tested and replaced if necessary.
