Before each wash load, check the coarse strainer, the drain screen basket and the drain fine filter screen and remove any objects and soil particles.

1.Turn the drain stopper assembly ¼ turn to the left to release and lift up. Clean basket.

2.Turn the drain screen basket to the left until you feel release and lift up. Clean the screen.

3.Lift the drain fine filter screen up and slide right edges out of the holder. Clean screen.

To clean the wooden cutting board

Wash in warm, soapy water and dry completely. Oil frequently with mineral or linseed oil, following the instructions on the container.

NOTES:

■Do not put wood into the dishwasher or microwave.

■Do not soak.

■Avoid extremes in temperatures — do not plunge into very hot water or store in the refrigerator.

Cleaning the interior

Hard water minerals can cause a white film to build up on the inside surfaces, especially just beneath the lid area.

Do not clean the dishwasher interior until it has cooled. You may want to wear rubber gloves. Do not use any type of cleanser other than dishwasher detergent because it may cause foaming or sudsing.

To clean interior

Make a paste with powdered dishwasher detergent on a damp sponge and clean.

Use liquid automatic dishwasher detergent and clean with a damp sponge.

See the vinegar rinse procedure in “Spotting and filming on dishes” in “Troubleshooting.”

NOTE: Run a Normal cycle with detergent after cleaning the interior.
