the cup handle in the upward direction. The entire filter assembly should be cleaned at least once a month.
To clean the main filter and the 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 damage dishes and utensils.
WARNIING : Never run the dishwasher without the filters in place.
?Cleaning The Door
To clean the edge around the door, you should 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 to clean the door panel because it could damage the door lock and electrical components. It is not allowed to use the abrasive agent or some paper towel because of the risk of scratching or leaving spots on the stainless steel surface.
?Cleaning The Drain Pump
Something will occasionally move into the filters and the drain pump. If this occurs, th e drain pumps employed in our dishwasher are designed to automatically reverse, ejecting the item back into the sump area or down the drain. IF you have to remove an obstacle from the drain pump, before you remove the filters, you should turn off the power, then remove the small black insert form the sump area. (You might want to remove any standing water first.) Scoop out the item that is probably in the sump area and causes the obstruction. Remember to replace the black insert before you put the filters back in.
?How To Keep You Dishwasher In Shape
?After every wash
After every wash, turn off the water supply to the appliance and leave the door slightly ajar so that moisture and odors are not trapped inside.
?No solvents or abrasive cleaning products
To clea n the exterior and rubber parts of the dishwasher, do not use solvents or abrasive cleaning products. Rather, use only a cloth and warm soapy water. To remove spots or stains from the surface of the interior, use a cloth dampened with water and a little white vinegar, or a cleaning product made specifically for dishwashers.
?When you go on Holiday
When you go on holiday, it is recommended that you run a wash cycle with the dishwasher empty and them de
?Seals
One of the factors that cause odors to form in the dishwasher is food that remains trapped in the seals. Periodic cleaning with a damp sponge will prevent this from occurring.
