For proper drying of dishes you need to make sure the Rinse aid is set at the right level plus the drying fan is working.
Some dishwashers also use the hot air by running the heater. If the heater is not working then drying can be affected.

Also might help to read this post.

I am assuming this is a new problem with a machine which was newly hooked up?

If otherwise, more information would be needed like how the machine was working prior, for how long, any changes to the plumbing, or other in the house or moving the machine, etc., etc...

Based upon the limited information provided: Perhaps a pinched drain line or other like the drain hose my be too high (where it drains into the houses plumbing).

Hi

Dishwasher not draining issue usually occurs due to kinked drain pipe, clogged drain filter or drain pump. Check the drain hose for any visible clogging, remove if present. If no visible lint is present then remove then turn off the dishwasher and remove the drain hose and check for any visible clogging. If still not visible then the drain filter or drain pump is clogged and you'll need to clean the drain filter and drain pump. Also, check for any food pieces stuck near the pump impeller. Hope this helps... Please post back for any further assistance.
