CARE AND CLEANING

The interior of your ASKO dishwasher is made of surgical quality stainless steel that has been electro- polished to make it the smoothest surface available. The smooth surface prohibits the accumulation of dirt and bacteria inside the unit. If the water in your area is especially hard, however, lime deposits could form

inside the machine. If this happens, you can remove them by putting two tablespoons of citric acid in the detergent compartment and running a Normal program. In extremely hard water areas you may need to repeat this process a few times to remove hard water deposits.

CLEANING THE FILTERS

For your convenience, we have placed the drain pump and filtering system within easy reach inside the tub. There are three components of the filtering system: the main filter, the coarse filter, and the fine filter.

In hard water areas, it may be necessary to clean chemical buildup from the filters every 12 to 18 months.

Main filter

Food and soil particles trapped by this filter are pulverized by a special jet on the lower spray arm and washed down the drain.

Fine filter

This filter holds soil and food residue in the sump area and prevents it from being redeposited on the dishes during a cycle.

Coarse filter

Larger items, such as pieces of bone or glass, that could clog the drain are trapped in the coarse filter. To remove an item caught in this filter, gently squeeze the tabs on top of this filter and lift it out.

To do this, remove the coarse filter by squeezing the tabs and lifting it out. Next, unscrew the fine filter and lift it and the main filter out. Wash all three filters gently in hot, soapy water and rinse them thoroughly.

WARNING!

Never run the dishwasher without the filters in place.

CLEANING THE DOOR

To clean the edge around the door, use only a soft warm, damp rag. To prevent penetration of water into the door lock and electrical components, do not use a spray

cleaner of any kind.

Also, never use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads on the outer surfaces because they will scratch the finish. Some papers towels can also scratch or leave marks on the surface.

WARNING!

Never use a spray cleaner of any kind on the door panel. You could damage the door lock and electrical components. And never use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads on the outer surfaces because they

will scratch the finish. Also, some paper towels can scratch or leave marks on the stainless steel surface.
