Common Questions
28 totalWhat should I do if there are suds in the dishwasher tub?
Suds are caused by using the wrong detergent — only automatic dishwasher detergents should be used. To remove suds, open the dishwasher and let them evaporate, then add 1 gallon of cold water to the tub, close the door, and pump out the water by pressing START/RESET twice. Repeat if necessary, and always wipe up any rinse agent spills immediately. (Page 21)
What water temperature is required for effective cleaning in the GHD3800?
The entering water must be at least 120°F and not more than 150°F for effective cleaning and to prevent dish damage. You can check the water temperature using a candy or meat thermometer by running hot water into a glass from the faucet nearest the dishwasher until the temperature stops rising. (Page 12)
Why won't my dishwasher drain properly?
The most likely causes are a clogged air gap, a clogged kitchen sink drain, or a garbage disposal that needs to be run clear. If you have an air gap, clean it by removing the chrome cover, unscrewing the plastic cap, and cleaning it with a toothpick. Check that your kitchen sink is draining well, and if not, you may need a plumber. (Pages 17, 21)
How do I remove spots and film buildup from glasses and flatware?
Use Jet-Dry rinse agent to remove spots and prevent new film build-up on dishes, glasses, flatware, cookware, and plastic. To remove stubborn pre-existing film, run the longest cycle without detergent, and after 18 to 22 minutes pour 2 cups of white vinegar into the bottom of the dishwasher and allow the cycle to complete. If the vinegar rinse doesn't work, repeat the process using 1/4 cup of citric acid crystals instead of vinegar. (Page 22)
What is the warranty coverage on the GHD3800 dishwasher?
The dishwasher comes with a one-year full warranty covering parts and labor for any defect in materials or workmanship, and a second-year limited warranty covering the Water Distribution System parts only (labor costs are the owner's responsibility). Additionally, the PermaTuf tub or door liner is covered for ten years if it fails to contain water due to defects such as cracking, chipping, peeling, or rusting, including free labor and in-home service. (Page 31)
How do I use the Start Delay feature on the GHD3800?
The Start Delay allows you to delay the start time of any cycle for up to 5 or 6 hours depending on your model. To use it, select your desired wash cycle and option, then slowly turn the dial to the desired delay time, and latch the door to begin the countdown — the Cycle On light will illuminate. (Page 10)

4Warning!
For your safety, the information in this manual must be followed to minimize the risk of fire, explosion, electric shock, or to prevent property damage, personal injury, or loss of life. Under certain conditions hydrogen gas may be produced in a water heater that has not been used for two weeks or more. HYDROGEN GAS IS EXPLOSIVE. If the hot water has not been used for two weeks or more, prevent the possibility of damage or injury by turning on all hot water faucets and allow them to run for several minutes. Do this before using any electrical appliance which is connected to the hot water system. This simple procedure will allow any built-up hydrogen gas to escape. Since the gas is flammable, do not smoke or use an open flame or appliance during this process.Water Heater Safety

When Using Your Dishwasher
I Use only powder, tabs or liquid detergents or wetting agents recommended for use in a dishwasher and keep them out of the reach of children. Cascade® Automatic Dishwashing Detergent has been approved for use in all GE dishwashers. I Locate sharp items so that they are not likely to damage the door seal. I Load sharp knives with the handles up to reduce the risk of cut-type injuries. I Do not wash plastic items unless marked dishwasher safe or the equivalent. For plastic items not so marked, check the manufacturer’s recommendations. I Non-Dishware Items: Do not wash items such as electronic air cleaner filters, furnace filters and paint brushes in your dishwasher. Damage to dishwasher and discoloration or staining of dishwasher may result. I Do not touch the heating element during or immediately after use. I Do not operate your dishwasher unless all enclosure panels are properly in place. I Close supervision is necessary if this appliance is used by or near children. I Load light plastic items so they will not become dislodged and drop to the bottom of the dishwasher— they might come into contact with the heating element and be damaged. Read and follow this Safety Information carefully.Save These Instructions

Check the water temperature with a candy or meat thermometer. Turn on the hot water faucet nearest the dishwasher, place the thermometer in a glass and let the water run continuously into the glass until the temperature stops rising. Use Jet-Dry ® Rinse Agent Jet-Dry® rinse agent removes spots and prevents new film build-up on your dishes, glasses, flatware, cookware and plastic. Fill the rinse agent dispenser until it reaches the bottom of lip inside the opening. Replace cap. To check if rinse agent is needed, remove the cap and look into the dispenser. On some models, the dispenser can be checked by pressing the clear center of the fill cap 2 or 3 times. If rinse agent fills the center of the fill cap, you have enough. A full dispenser should last about one month. If rinse agent spills, wipe up the excess. Dish Preparation Prior to Loading I No pre-rinsing of normal food soil is required. I Scrape off hard soils including bones, toothpicks, skins, and seeds. I Remove large quantities of any remaining food. I Remove leafy vegetables, meat trimmings, and excessive amounts of grease or oil. I Remove acidic food soils that can discolor stainless steel.
Customer Service Troubleshooting Tips Operating Instructions Safety Information 13 Forget to Add a Dish? A forgotten dish can be added any time before the main wash. Push the door latch to the left. Once the water calms, open the door. Steam may rise out of the dishwasher. Add forgotten dishes. Close the door and push the latch to the far right. 4 3 2 1 Proper Use of Detergent Use only detergent specifically made for use in dishwashers. Cascade® Automatic Dishwashing Detergent has been approved for use in all GE dishwashers. Keep your detergent fresh and dry. Don’t put powder detergent into the dispenser until you’re ready to wash dishes. The amount of detergent to use depends on whether your water is hard or soft. With hard water, you need extra detergent. With soft water, you need less detergent. Protect your dishes and dishwasher by contacting your water department and asking how hard your water is. Twelve or more grains is extremely hard water. A water softener is recommended. Without it, lime can build up in the water valve, which could stick while open and cause flooding. Too much detergent with soft water can cause a permanent cloudiness of glassware, called etching. You’ll find two detergent dispensers on the inside door of your dishwasher. All wash cycles except RINSE ONLY require detergent in the main cup. Wash cycles with two washes will also use the open cup. When using automatic dishwashing detergent tabs, simply place one tab in the main cup and close. Be sure the Dial is OFF before adding detergent. Otherwise, the detergent cup will not close and latch properly. Add detergent then close the main cup. NOTE: To open detergent cup after it has been closed, simply turn the detergent cup handle counter-clockwise until it releases. A snapping sound may be heard. Open cup Main cup
The Wash Tower Keep the center area clear in the lower rack. The wash tower rises through the center of the lower rack during the wash and rinse portions of the cycle. A second wash tower (on some models) is located in the top rack. Water from the wash tower in the lower rack shoots up into this wash tower and out the openings at the top. When loading items around this wash tower do not block the top openings. Don’t block or load tall things next to the Wash Tower. Also, be careful not to let a portion of an item such as a pot or dish handle extend through the bottom rack. This could block the wash arm and cause poor washing results. Upper Rack The upper rack is for glasses, cups and saucers. Cups and glasses fit best along the sides. This is also a secure place for dishwasher-safe plastics. The upper rack is good for all kinds of odd- shaped utensils. Saucepans, mixing bowls and other items should be placed face down. The cup shelf (on some models) may be placed in the up or down position to add flexibility. Secure larger dishwasher-safe plastics over two fingers when possible. Make sure small plastic items are secure so they can’t fall onto the heating element. Safety Information Operating Instructions Troubleshooting Tips Customer Service Loading the dishwasher racks. For best dishwashing results, follow these loading guidelines. Features and appearance of racks and silverware baskets may vary from your model. 14
15 Customer Service Troubleshooting Tips Operating Instructions Safety Information Lower Rack When loading the lower rack, do not load large platters or trays in the front right corner. They may prevent detergent from circulating during the wash cycle. The lower rack is best used for plates, saucers, and cookware. Large items such as broiler pans and racks should go along the sides. Load platters, pots and bowls along the sides, in corners, or in the back. The soiled side of items should face the center of the rack. Silverware Basket Put flatware in the removable basket with fork and knife handles up to protect your hands. Place spoons in the basket with handles down. Mix knives, forks and spoons so they don’t nest together. Distribute evenly. Small plastic items, such as measuring spoons and lids from small containers, should go in the bottom of the silverware basket with silverware on top. To increase the flexibility of the lower rack, the silverware basket may be split (on some models). Grasp the basket at opposite corners and slide apart. The basket sections should be placed in the lower rack by hanging them on the top hoop. A cover can be lowered to either side to secure lightweight items from the effects of the vigorous wash action. Don’t let any item extend through bottom. Single basket (on some models) Split basket (on some models)
Safety Information Operating Instructions Troubleshooting Tips Customer Service 16 Caring for the dishwasher. To clean the control panel use a lightly dampened cloth then dry thoroughly. To clean the exterior use a good appliance polish wax. Never use sharp objects, scouring pads or harsh cleaners on any part of the dishwasher. Protect Against Freezing If your dishwasher is left in an unheated place during the winter, ask a service technician to: Cut off electrical power to the dishwasher. Remove fuses or trip circuit breaker. Turn off the water supply and disconnect the water inlet line from the water valve. Drain water from the inlet line and water valve. (Use a pan to catch the water.) Reconnect the water inlet line to the water valve. Remove the plastic sump cover in the tub bottom and use a sponge to soak up water in the rubber boot. 5 4 3 2 1 Sump cover screws
Customer Service Troubleshooting Tips Operating Instructions Safety Information Check the air gap any time your dishwasher isn’t draining well. Does Your Dishwasher Have an Air Gap? An air gap protects your dishwasher against water backing up into it if a drain clogs. The air gap is not a part of the dishwasher. It is not covered by your warranty. Not all plumbing codes require air gaps, so you may not have one. The air gap is easy to clean. Turn off the dishwasher and lift off the chrome cover.
