Maintenance Checklist & Warning Signs
Simple routine steps keep your dishwasher running efficiently. If you notice abnormal warning signs, our Duluth technicians are ready to help.
Twist and unlock the cylindrical mesh filter at the tub bottom. Rinse under warm running water and brush away trapped food debris and grease.
Inspect upper and lower spray arms for hard water blockages. Use a soft brush or toothpick to dislodge calcium and mineral deposits.
Wipe down the perimeter rubber seal with mild dish soap to prevent mold. Verify that the overfill float switch moves freely without sticking.
Run an empty high-temperature sanitize cycle with an appliance descaling tablet or vinegar cup to clear hidden grease and internal pipes.
Standing Puddle in the Basin
High PriorityMore than an inch of standing dirty water after a cycle signals a drain pump blockage, pinched hose, or faulty check valve.
Persistent Foul or Musty Odor
Attention NeededRotten smells that survive deep cleaning usually indicate stagnant waste trapped in the internal air gap or sump chamber.
Gritty Film on Clean Glasses
Service RecommendedChalky film, grease haze, or food specks on upper-rack glassware mean weak water circulation or failing wash impellers.
Grinding Hum or Buzzing Noise
Immediate ActionLoud rhythmic grinding during wash or drain cycles points to broken glass in the chopper blade or worn motor bearings.
