PROBLEM 1: Dishwasher Takes Long Time To Finish

SOLUTION 1:

1. Check if the cycle takes longer than 3 hours.
   
   
   • Although this is a long process, it is important to verify that the dishwasher is actually taking longer than 3 hours to complete a cycle.
     
     
2. Check water connection.
   
   
   • The most common issue for long cycle times is caused by cold water. Although the dishwasher can be connected to a cold water source, it is not recommended.
     
     
   • If your dishwasher is connected to the cold water source, you will have longer cycle times because the dishwasher needs to heat up the water to the correct temperature.
     
     
   • If the dishwasher is connected to a hot water source, run the sink faucet until the water is hot, and then start the dishwasher.
     
     
3. Inspect the insulation material (green felt). This may require you to remove the dishwasher from under the cabinet.
   
   
   • This material should NOT be removed. It acts a sound insulator, and it also insulates the unit by trapping heat inside.
     
     
   • If the material has been removed, heat will escape, lowering the cabin's temperature and extending wash cycle times.
     
     
   • If the felt has been removed or is damaged, service is required. The felt will not be covered under warranty.
     
     

*If the dishwasher runs longer than 3 hours, is connected to a hot water line, and has the insulation material still installed, service is required.
