The dishwasher will flush away all normal food soils. However, objects (fruit pits, bones, etc.) may collect in openings and should be removed occasionally to avoid clogging the drain system.

CAUTION: Personal injury hazard. Before cleaning the interior, wait at least 20 minutes after a cycle for the heating element to cool down. Failure to do so could result in burn injuries.

Cleaning the Spray Arms

Because hard water chemicals will clog the spray arm jets and bearings, it is necessary to clean the spray arms regularly. To remove the spray arm, twist the retaining nut 90 degrees and pull the spray arm off the shaft.

Wash the arms in soapy, warm water and use a soft brush to clean the jets. Replace them after rinsing thoroughly.

Cleaning the Filters

For best performance and results, the filter assembly must be cleaned regularly. The filter efficiently removes food particles from the wash water, allowing water to be recirculated during the cycle. For this reason, it is a good idea to remove the large food particles trapped in the filter frequently by rinsing the main filter and cup under running water. To remove the filter assembly, pull up on the cup handle. The entire filter assembly should be cleaned at least once a month. To clean the main filter and fine filter, use a cleaning brush. Then, reassemble the filter parts as shown in the illustration and reinsert the entire assembly in the dishwasher, positioning it in place and pressing downward. The dishwasher must never be used without the filters. Improper replacement of the filter may reduce the performance level of the appliance and may damage dishes and utensils.
