Troubleshooting tips and frequently asked questions for Faber Dishwashers.
Troubleshooting tips
If dishes remain dirty, check that spray arms are not blocked by large utensils and rotate freely. Remove and clean spray arm holes with a toothpick. Also ensure you are using the correct cycle for the soil level and that the detergent dispenser opens during the cycle.
For poor drying, ensure the rinse aid dispenser is filled and set to the recommended level (usually 3-4). Select a cycle with a heated dry option. Also, avoid overloading; leave space between items for air circulation.
If water pools at the bottom, clean the filter assembly and check the drain hose for kinks or clogs. Run a rinse cycle with a dishwasher cleaner to remove grease buildup. Ensure the garbage disposal (if connected) is clear.
When the dishwasher won't start, check that the door is latched securely and the control lock is not activated. Reset the breaker. If the display is blank, there may be a power issue; verify the outlet has power.
For unusual noises, check for foreign objects in the sump or spray arms. Secure loose items in the rack. A humming noise may indicate a drain pump issue; if persistent, contact Faber support.
