DISHWASHER WON’T FILL
• Check to see if the water supply is turned on.
• Add 1/2 cup of water to the bottom of the unit
and start again.

• Soiled dishes left in dishwasher too long can
create an odor. Use Rinse cycle.
• There will be a “new” smell when first
installed. This is normal.
• Check to see if unit is draining properly (See

NOTE
If these conditions persist, a home water
softener should be considered.
