Dishwasher Cleaner Part

■ Load your dishwasher (preferably with dishes affected by filming /
hard water).
■ Place tablet in main wash compartment of detergent dispenser.
■ Select cycle/option best for heavily soiled dishes and start
dishwasher.
NOTE: Recommended to use a premeasured detergent tablet or pack
for regular daily use.
Cleaning the Filters
If you have a drain air gap,
check and clean it if the
dishwasher isn't draining well.
To Reduce Risk of Property Damage During Vacation or Extended
Time Without Use
■ When you will not be using the dishwasher during the summer
months, turn off the water and power supply to the dishwasher.
■ Make sure the water supply lines are protected against freezing
conditions. Ice formations in the supply lines can increase water
pressure and cause damage to your dishwasher or home. Damage
from freezing is not covered by the warranty.
■ When storing your dishwasher in the winter, avoid water damage by
having your dishwasher winterized by authorized service
personnel.
It is very easy to remove and maintain the filters. The chart below shows the recommended cleaning frequency.
*Manufacturer's recommendation: This practice will conserve the water and energy that you would have used to prepare your dishes. This will
also save you time and effort.
Very Hard Water
If you have hard water (above 15 grains), clean your filter at least once
per month. Building up of white residue on your dishwasher indicates
hard water. For tips on removing spots and stains, see the
“Troubleshooting” section in the full Use and Care Guide.
Cleaning Instructions
IMPORTANT: Do not use wire brush, scouring pad, etc., as they may
damage the filters.
Rinse filter under running water until most soils are removed. If you
have hard-to-remove soils or calcium deposits from hard water, a soft
brush may be required.
