1 Main filter

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

2 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.

3 Fine filter

This filter holds s oil residue in the sump area preventing it from being redeposited onto the dishes during a cycle.

Protecting Against Frozen Pump Damage

It is important to protect your pumps from frozen water damage caused by the drop of internal home temperature. If your home temperature goes below 34°F for a long period of time, you can have ice build in the lines and around the motors. Have your plumber follow the below steps if you water pipes freeze.

1.Cut off the electrical power to the dishwasher.

2.Turn off the water supply and disconnect the water inlet pipe from the water valve.

3.Drain the water from the inlet pipe and water valve. (Use a pan to catch the water)

4.Reconnect the water inlet pipe to the water valve.

5.Remove the filter at the bottom of the tub and use a sponge to soak up water in the sump.

If your dishwasher does not work because of ice,

please contact professional service persons.

Cleaning the Spray Arms

It is necessary to clean the spray arms regularly in order to prevent the clogging of the jets and bearings from hard water chemicals.

To remove the upper spray arm, turn the nut clockwise and remove the arm. To remove the lower spray arm, pull it upward.

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