US CA

1Remove the basket carefully. Lift from the back end first to prevent knocking the detergent and rinse agent dispenser.

2Lift the spray arm and shake any foreign material out.

Rinse the spray arm clean under running water and wipe with a damp cloth.

3 In the center of the filter plate there are two rings.

Hold the center ring still and turn the outer ring

counter-clockwise, about a 1/8 turn. This will

release the filter plate.

4Lift the filter plate out.

When cleaning the underside of the filter plate, take care handling the sharp outer edge to avoid the risk of cuts.

Remove any foreign material, wash in hot soapy water and rinse thoroughly in clean water. The heater plate can be wiped with a damp cloth.

5Replace the filter plate so it lies flat in the base of the drawer ensuring the filter plate is fully locked into position with the center ring.

6To lock the filter plate into position, ensure the lines align with each other (refer to the diagram for the correct position). The filter plate must not be able to move about freely.

7Replace the spray arm back onto the impeller.

8Replace the basket, lowering the front edge of the basket into position first.

Note: Where there is broken crockery or glass in the drawer, it must be carefully removed to prevent damage to the DishDrawer®.

DCS DD224P5, DCS DD124P5 specifications

Fisher & Paykel is well-known for its innovative kitchen appliances, and the DCS DD124P5 and DD224P5 dishwasher models exemplify their commitment to quality and functionality. Designed for the modern kitchen, these dishwashers combine advanced technologies with sleek aesthetics to deliver exceptional cleaning performance.

The DCS DD124P5 is a compact, single-drawer dishwasher ideal for smaller spaces or as an additional unit in larger kitchens. Its 24-inch width makes it versatile enough to fit under counters while still providing robust cleaning capabilities. The DD224P5, on the other hand, features a double-drawer design, offering double the capacity without sacrificing the convenience of installation. Both models are designed to be fully integrated, allowing them to blend seamlessly with kitchen cabinetry and providing a custom look.

One of the standout features of both models is the SmartDrive technology, designed to deliver efficient and effective washing. This technology uses a precise sensor system to determine load size and soil levels, adjusting water usage and cycle duration accordingly. This not only conserves water but also ensures optimal energy efficiency, making it an environmentally friendly choice.

Another key characteristic of the DD124P5 and DD224P5 is their flexibility with wash options. Each drawer can operate independently, meaning you can run two different wash cycles simultaneously. This is particularly useful for households with varying needs, as you can run a quick wash for lighter loads in one drawer while tackling heavily soiled dishes in the other.

Both models feature a variety of wash programs, including options for delicate items, heavy-duty cleaning, and express washes, accommodating diverse dishwashing needs. The intuitive control panel with easy-to-read indicators simplifies the selection process, making it user-friendly for everyone.

Noise reduction is another significant advantage of these dishwashers, with both models operating at a whisper-quiet level. This allows for comfortable conversation and a peaceful kitchen environment even when the dishwasher is running.

In terms of design, Fisher & Paykel opts for a modern stainless-steel finish that adds sophistication to any kitchen. The internal design also prioritizes space and organization, with adjustable racks, foldable tines, and dedicated cutlery trays that enhance loading flexibility.

In summary, Fisher & Paykel's DCS DD124P5 and DD224P5 dishwashers embody the brand's dedication to high performance and modern design. Their innovative features, energy-efficient technologies, and versatile configurations make them ideal choices for any kitchen, catering to both aesthetic preferences and practical needs.
