3. Slowly rotate the filter clockwise until it drops into place.
Continue to rotate until the filter is locked into place. If the
filter is not fully seated (still turns freely), continue to turn the
filter clockwise until it drops and locks into place.
NOTE: The upper filter assembly arrow does not have to align
with the arrow in the lower filter as long as the filter is locked.
IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to dishwasher, do not operate
your dishwasher without the filters properly installed. Be sure the
lower filter is securely in place and the upper filter assembly is
locked into place. If the upper filter assembly turns freely, it is not
locked into place.
Dishwasher Care
Cleaning the Exterior
Clean the exterior of dishwasher with a soft, damp cloth and
mild detergent. If your dishwasher has a stainless steel exterior,
a stainless steel cleaner, such as affresh
®†
Stainless Steel Cleaner
is recommended. Avoid using abrasive cleaning products on the
exterior of the dishwasher.
Cleaning the Interior
Clean the interior of the dishwasher with a paste of powdered
dishwasher detergent and water or use liquid dishwasher
detergent on a damp sponge to clean the cooled-down interior.
A white vinegar rinse may remove white spots and film. Vinegar
is an acid and using it too often could damage your dishwasher.
Put 2 cups (500 mL) white vinegar in a glass or dishwasher-safe
measuring cup on the bottom rack. Run the dishwasher through
a complete washing cycle using an air-dry or an energy-saving
dry option. Do not use detergent. Vinegar will mix with the
wash water.
