• A:Answer Just recently installed a Whirlpool dishwasher with a foil looking "Made in the USA" sticker on the bottom right-hand corner of the front door. I tried to lift it with a fingernail, however it wouldn't budge. I took a microfiber cloth and saturated it with very hot tap water and held it on the sticker for a few minutes. I was able to lift enough of the sticker to grip it with my fingertips and it peeled right off....problem solved.

Q: QuestionI just got my dishwasher installed and it is making an odd sound. I haven’t had a new dishwasher in 17 years, so i am not sure if this sound is normal or not. It is a very rapid vibrating sound or like it is straining. It happens periodically.

• A:Answer You are probably hearing the blade that pulverizes any food particles so they can be pumped out with the dirty water. I'm used to it now and have plans to put it to the test by not rinsing, or even scraping food off thoroughly, and seeing how it does. Hope this helps!

Q: QuestionWhat is the duration of each cycle? How do you know how much time is left?

Asked 5 years ago by flo123.

This question was asked about the related product: KitchenAid - 24" Front Control Built-In Tub Dishwasher with 3rd Rack, 50+ Total Wash Jets, 44 dBA - Stainless Steel

• A:Answer The ProWash and Normal cycles take about 2 hours and 15 minutes for dishes that have been rinsed off before being put into the dishwasher. The ProWash cycle detects dirt and such and will go longer if needed, hence rinsing the dishes before they go in. That and it smells better if you take more than a day to accumulate a full load

Q: QuestionDoes heated dry only work on the ProWash Cycle or does it work on all Cycles?

Asked 4 years ago by Ricky.

This question was asked about the related product: KitchenAid - 24" Front Control Built-In Tub Dishwasher with 3rd Rack, 50+ Total Wash Jets, 44 dBA - Stainless Steel

• A:Answer There is an option for heated dry, which you can choose with any cycle. I don't know if it's automatic when choosing ProCycle because I haven't used that cycle yet, but you can certainly choose to turn heated dry on. Same with the high temperature wash, sanitizing wash, and extended heated dry options. The dishwasher also remembers your settings for each cycle, at least as far as I have experienced.

Asked 2 years ago by Grammy.

This question was asked about the related product: KitchenAid - 24" Front Control Built-In Tub Dishwasher with 3rd Rack, 50+ Total Wash Jets, 44 dBA - Stainless Steel

• A:Answer Yes, and the control lock button requires a 3 second hold. Great dishwasher, it gets off baked on cheese and you will love the 3rd rack. I prefer the upfront controls because it is so quiet, that is the only way you know it is on.
