cleaning and maintaining your

dishwasher

Keeping your dishwasher clean improves its performance, reduces unnecessary

repairs, and lengthens its life.

CLEANING THE EXTERIOR

It’s best to clean spills on the outside of your dishwasher as they occur. Use a soft, damp cloth on the
control panel to gently wipe away spills and dust. Do not use benzene, wax, thinner, chlorine bleach, or
alcohol. These materials may discolor the inner walls and cause stains. Do not clean the dishwasher by
sprinkling water over it and avoid letting water come into contact with any of the electrical parts.
If your dishwasher has a stainless steel door panel, you can clean it with a stainless steel cleaner for
Home Appliances or a similar product using a clean, soft cloth.

CLEANING THE INTERIOR

Clean the interior of your dishwasher periodically to remove any dirt or food particles. Wipe the inside of
the dishwasher and the inner part of the door with a wet dishcloth. We recommend f illing the detergent
dispenser with dish detergent, and then running the dishwasher empty periodically using either the Normal
or Express 60 cycle with the sanitize option. This will keep your dishwasher clean.
If white spots and odor are still present in your dishwasher, run the Normal cycle with the dishwasher empty
and without detergent until it f lushes. Then, interrupt the cycle and put an 8 ounce cup of white vinegar into
the lower basket. Close the dishwasher and let the cycle f inish.
Do not remove the tub front seal (the long rubber seal enclosing the opening of the dishwasher).

CLEANING THE FILTERS

1. Turn off the dishwasher.
2. Rotate the f ilter insert counterclockwise to unfasten and then detach
the f ilter insert.
3. Remove the f ine f ilter (f lat, rectangular).
CAUTION
Do not touch the HEATING ELEMENT during or immediately after use.

If the Normal cycle light is continuously blinking and cannot be reset or started, try the following steps: 1. Turn off the dishwasher by pressing the Power button. 2. Wait for a few minutes and then turn it back on. 3. Select a different wash cycle based on the level of dirt on your dishes. You can try the Auto, Heavy, or Express 60 cycle. 4. If you have chosen the Sanitize option, wait for the water temperature to reach the sanitary temperature (over 156°F or 69°C). The "Sanitize" light will blink during this process and then stay on until the Sanitize option is completed. Press the Power button to turn off the "Sanitize" light. If the issue persists, consult the "Information Codes" section in the manual for more details on specific LED blinking patterns and their respective causes.

The blinking blue light under the normal button on the Samsung DW80R2031US dishwasher indicates that the selected cycle is complete. The dishwasher powers off automatically when the cycle is finished. The light of the most recently finished cycle will be illuminated.

The possible cause for dishes not drying properly in the Samsung DW80R2031US dishwasher could be the following: 1. There is no rinse aid in the dispenser. Check the dispenser and add rinse aid. Use a liquid type rinse aid. 2. The temperature of the water is low when the dishwasher is running. Use rinse aid with the Sanitize option. 3. Too many dishes have been loaded. Proper loading of items can affect drying. Load your dishes as recommended. 4. Glasses and cups with concave bottoms hold water. This water may spill onto other items when you are unloading. After the cycle finishes, empty the lower rack first and then the upper rack. This will prevent water from dripping from the upper rack onto the dishes in the lower rack.

The dishwasher is stuck in a "drain mode". First time using and unable to get it to work. Turned it on - set the desired wash type and closed door. The dishwasher after a few minutes goes into "Heavy" mode/light blinking - sounds like it wants to drain? First time using - is there a reset option? Am i doing something wrong or is it defective?

What do I do about a smelly dishwasher?

In the case of a smelly dishwasher, you can take the following steps: - Clean the filters - Clean the spray arms - Clean the door rubbers - Run a hot wash program - Run an empty machine with a dishwasher cleaner

Do you have to pre-rinse the dishes?

It is not recommended to rinse dirty dishes before placing them in the dishwasher. For the life cycle of the machine, it is better to put everything dirty in the dishwasher. The grease on the dirty dishes is the lubrication for the pump in the machine.

How much dishwashing detergent should I use?

The average amount used is about 25 grams of dishwashing detergent. It is recommended to follow the advice on the packaging.

How do I add softening salt to my dishwasher?

Each dishwasher has a separate compartment for softening salt. It opens when you turn the knob on the compartment. The softening salt can then be poured into the compartment by means of a funnel.

Why is my dishwasher not turning on?

Ensure that the dishwasher is properly connected to a power source and that the circuit breaker has not tripped. Additionally, check if the energy-saving feature is activated, as this may prevent the dishwasher from starting.

What should I do if the dishes come out dirty after a cycle?

Make sure you are loading the dishes correctly, allowing proper water flow. Check for any blockages in the spray arms and ensure they can freely rotate. Also, ensure that you are using the appropriate amount and type of detergent, as using too little or the wrong detergent can affect cleaning performance.

How do I troubleshoot a dishwasher leak?

Ensure that the dishwasher is level and not tilted, as this can cause water to spill out. Check for any damaged or faulty door gaskets as well. Additionally, inspect the water supply line and drain hose for any signs of leaks or blockages.

Why does my dishwasher make loud noises during operation?

Check if there are any loose items, such as utensils or small plates, that may be causing the noise. Ensure that the dishwasher is properly leveled and not resting against any cabinets or walls. Examine the spray arms and filter for any debris that might be causing noise or restriction in water flow.

How can I resolve a dishwasher that is not drying dishes properly?

Verify that the Rinse Aid dispenser is filled, as this aids in the drying process. Additionally, ensure that the "Heated Dry" option is selected, allowing the dishwasher to use heat during the drying cycle. Proper loading technique to allow air circulation around the dishes can also improve drying performance.
