What does Dishes Not Clean mean?

If dishes come out dirty after a wash cycle, it could be due to incorrect loading, an unsuitable program choice, or blocked/stuck internal components like wash arms or filters.

Common Causes

  • Dishes not placed orderly or overloading.
  • Unsuitable program selected (e.g., too low temperature/short cycle).
  • Wash arms are stuck or their holes are clogged.
  • Filters are clogged or incorrectly installed.
  • Detergent is insufficient, unsuitable, or stored improperly.
