Recommended time intervals to clean your filter
*Manufacturer's recommendation: This practice will eliminate the water and energy that you use preparing 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. You may bring your water samples to Sears to check hardness level. For tips on removing spots and stains, see
“Troubleshooting” section.

1. Noting the previous illustrations, place the lower filter under the locating tabs in the
bottom of the dishwasher so the round opening for the upper filter assembly lines up with
the round opening in the bottom of the tub.
2. Insert the upper filter assembly into the circular opening in the lower filter.
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.
