DISHWASHING - Poor Drying
POSSIBLE CAUSES:
- Using the Air Dry cycle. Switch to heated drying.
- Low water temperature. Turn up the setting on the water heater or use a water heating option regularly.
- (For optimum results, water heating dishwashers require a minimum of 1200F. inlet water and regular use of heating options. Non-water heating dishwashers need 1400F. inlet water for optimum results.)
- Not using a rinse aid such as Jet Dry or Crystal Clear.
- Using too little detergent. Detergent contains ingredients which help to improve drying. Increase the amount of detergent used as directed on page 16.
- Dishes nesting. Be sure dishwasher is being loaded properly. Refer to the User's Guide.
- Some items are difficult to dry in a dishwasher even under the best of circumstances. Cups and glasses with concave bottoms will hold water at the end of the cycle. Plastic and Teflon have a porous surface that holds droplets of water and is difficult to dry. Towel drying of these items may be necessary.
