What Makes Electrolux Dishwasher Repairs Different
The drain hose should be held at least 32 inches above the floor and then run down to the drain connection so the unit drains completely. Source: Electrolux - Dishwasher Drain Hose Guide
The unit heats incoming water before washing when needed and shows Hd or HO during that delay, which adds roughly 1 to 2 minutes per degree of temperature rise. Source: Electrolux - Dishwasher Error Codes and Alarms Guide
Electrolux Dishwasher Symptoms and First Checks
- Dishwasher odor. Electrolux says to run a rinse-only cycle if the dishwasher won't be run soon and to make sure it is draining properly. Source: Electrolux - Why does my dishwasher have an odor and how do I fix it?
- Dishwasher leaking. Electrolux says to check first that the drain hose is installed correctly and unblocked and that the door closes fully, since the kick plate can keep it from shutting. Source: Electrolux - Dishwasher - Water Leaking
