Washing Special Items, Wash System | KitchenAid KUDP01FL guide

Wash System

The five-level wash system provides excellent cleaning results. Four levels of filtration, and a soil collector system, filter the wash water and prevent food particles from redepositing on the clean dishes.

■The wash water continuously flows through the Ultra-Fine filter, trapping food particles.

■Two water jets, located under the spray arm, remove the food particles from the Ultra-Fine filter.

■A coarse strainer prevents bones, pits, and other large objects from entering the pump system.

NOTE: Periodically check the coarse strainer and remove any objects on the strainer.

Vent System

The vent, located on the top left side of the door, serves several purposes.

During the cycle, it closes to lock sound in the dishwasher. After the cycle has finished, the vent remains closed until the dishes have cooled down. Between cycles, the vent stays open for airflow, reducing the buildup of odors. It also helps relieve air pressure, allowing you to close the dishwasher door more easily.

Overfill Protection Float

The overfill protection float (in the front right corner of the dishwasher tub) keeps the dishwasher from overfilling. It must be in place for the dishwasher to operate.

Check under the float for objects that may keep the protector from moving up or down.
