DISHWASHER SYSTEMS

THE WASH SYSTEM

The wash system provides excellent cleaning results. Two levels of filtration filter the wash water and prevent food particles from redepos- iting on the clean dishes.

•A filter plate prevents bones, pits, and other large objects from entering the pump sys- tem.

•Items small enough to pass through the filter plate are caught in the drain filter.

•The wash water continuously flows through the drain filter, trapping food particles.

IMPORTANT: Before each wash load, check the drain filter for evidence of food particles and clean. (A small amount of water will remain in the drain filter area.) The filter plate is designed to be self-cleaning, but food scraps may accu- mulate. The spray arm and filter plate may need cleaning about once a month in normal use or more often, should the need arise.
