DRAIN AIR GAP

Check the drain air gap any time the dishwasher isn’t draining well.

If a drain is clogged, the drain air gap protects your dishwasher from water backing up into it. If there is leakage from air gap check connection of dishwasher to water-pipe network (See Installation Instructions).

To clean the drain air gap

Clean the drain air gap periodically to ensure proper drainage of your dishwasher. Lift off the outer cover. Unscrew the plastic cap. Then check for any soil build-up. Clean if necessary.

NOTE: The fill air gap is located to the right of the drain air gap and does not require maintenance.
