  • QuestionI purchased a Maytag and there was no cord to plug in I was told it was a hardwired? I need a regular plug up dishwasher

    Asked by Faith.

    • Answer I paid $35 for an install kit when I bought the dishwasher which probably had the cord in it. Best Buy installed it for me that’s why I am not totally sure. You need to contact the store and ask them. If you had a sales rep they should have told you. If you bought it online you should have read more carefully. By the way my dishwasher is awesome!

    Asked by Em.

    • Answer I do not know how much water this unit uses but I can tell you that we love it. It is the quietest dishwasher that we have ever used. When it is running there is almost no sound and I frequently find myself asking my wife if she had started the latest cycle and it is running and I am standing next to it. Sorry that I can't answer the question asked but I can tell you that it is the best. We u8sually use the SANI cycle.

  • QuestionJust received the dishwasher today. Ran the initial first cycle. Loaded it with dishes for the first washing cycle. Used the pod and rinse agent it came with. All dishes have white spots on them. Is this normal for a first wash? Will that go away?

    Asked by AngieP.

    • Answer We are sorry to hear about your concern with your Dishwasher. Pease see some troubleshooting tips for this concern. Is the water turned on? The water supply must be completely open to wash and rinse the dishes properly. Are you using rinse aid? The use of rinse aid is very important. Using a rinse aid will optimize your drying and wash performance. Your dishwasher is specifically designed to use liquid rinse aid for improved drying performance and to control the buildup of hard water deposits. https://youtu.be/LPm_ZtsGvoE Are you using the high-temperature wash option? Consider using a high-temperature wash option. This option raises the main wash temperature to improve cleaning for loads containing tough, baked-on food. https://youtu.be/lfpd3GpafbI Are you using the heated dry option? This option dries dishes with heat. This option, with the use of a rinse aid, will provide the best drying performance. Heated Dry will NOT dry plastic articles or remove all the moisture from convex-bottomed items. What type of detergent should I use? High-quality pre-measured tablets and packs are recommended for improved performance. Quality tablets and packs have been proven better than powder, liquid, or gel detergents at reducing filming on dishes. Using tablets and packs over time will start to reduce or eliminate white film. They are suitable for all water hardness and soil levels. Also, by using rinse aid, you can minimize the repeat buildup of the white film (not all packs and tablets contain rinse aid). Always place pre-measured detergents in the main compartment and close the lid. The Pre-Wash indicator on the dispenser lid is for customers who use powder or gel detergent and wish to add an amount of detergent to the Pre-Wash cycle. The volume of detergent added here is approximately eight cubic centimeters if filled full and level. Any detergent added here would be immediately added to the wash when the cycle starts, versus detergent inside the dispenser, which is added during the main wash cycle. NOTE: Follow the instructions on the package when using other dishwasher detergent types. Use automatic dishwasher detergent only. Add detergent just before starting a cycle. Fresh automatic dishwasher detergent results in better cleaning. Store the detergent in a tightly closed container and place it in a cool, dry place. Extremely hard water mineral deposits (15 grains per U.S. gallon or more) can damage your dishwasher and make good results difficult to achieve. A water softener is recommended to avoid damage and achieve good results. Have you cleaned the dishwasher? Extremely hard water mineral deposits can cause damage to your dishwasher and make it difficult to achieve good cleaning. A water softener is strongly recommended if your hardness is 15 grains or more. Use affresh® Dishwasher Cleaner (or another dishwasher cleaning product) or a white vinegar rinse to remove white spots and film. Depending on the severity of the spots more than one treatment may be required. Cleans even where you can't see affresh® cleans deep inside your appliances reaching components such as the tub, racks, pump, valves, drain, and recirculation hoses. Please review the troubleshooting tips provided. If the issue persists, we recommend contacting Maytag® directly at 800-344-1274 for further assistance. Our representatives are available Monday through Friday from 8:00 AM to 6:00 PM EST.
