How to Fix / Troubleshooting

Safety first: Unplug the appliance and turn off water before removing hoses or panels.

  • Clean dispenser: Remove the detergent drawer and wash it thoroughly under warm water. Use a brush to clean jets and channels.
  • Check dispenser housing: Clean any buildup in the housing where the drawer slides in.
  • Adjust detergent use: Use HE detergent and follow the dosing instructions for your water hardness and load size.
  • Check water pressure: Ensure both hot and cold taps are fully open and that inlet filters are clean so the dispenser flushes properly.
