Kenmore 665.1404 manual Ultra Wash HE Filtration System, Very Hard Water

ULTRA WASH ®HE FILTRATION

SYSTEM

Your

dishwasher

has the latest

technology

in

dishwasher

filtration.

This

triple

filtration

system

minimizes

sound and

optimizes

water

and

energy consumption

while

providing

superior

cleaning

performance.

Throughout

the

life of

your dishwasher,

the filter

will

require

maintenance

to sustain

peak

cleaning

performance.

The

triple

filter

system

consists

of 2

parts,

an

upper

filter

assembly

and

a lower filter.

•The upper filter assembly keeps oversized items and foreign objects, along with very fine food particles out of the pump.

•The lower filter keeps food from being recirculated onto your dishware.

Lower Filter

The filters may need to be cleaned when:

•Visible objects or soils are on the Upper Filter Assembly.

• There is degradation in cleaning performance (that is, soils still present on dishes).

•Dishes feel gritty to the touch.

Removing and maintaining the filters is very easy. The chart below shows the recommended cleaning frequency.

Manufacturer's recommendation: This practice will eliminate the water and energy that you use preparing your dishes. This

will also save you time and effort.

Very Hard Water
