ZLQWHUDVNDVHUYLFHWHFKQLFLDQWR
1
Turn off electrical power to the dishwasher. Remove
fuses or trip circuit breaker.
2
Turn off the water supply and disconnect the water inlet
line from the water valve.
3
Drain water from the water inlet line and water valve.

Does Your Dishwasher Have an Air Gap?
An air gap protects your dishwasher
against water backing up into it if a drain
clogs. The air gap is not a part of the
dishwasher. It is not covered by your
warranty. Not all plumbing codes require
air gaps, so you may not have one.
The air gap is easy to clean.
1
Turn off the dishwasher and lift off the air gap cover.
2
Remove the plastic cap under the cover and clean with a
toothpick.
3
Replace the cap and cover when the air gap is clean.
Check the air gap any
time your dishwasher
isn’t draining well.

Filters
Inspect and clean the filters periodically. This should be done every other month or more depending on usage. If
there is a decrease in wash performance or dishes feel gritty, this is also an indication the filters need to be cleaned.
Ultra-Fine Filter Assembly
To clean the Ultra-Fine Filter assembly, remove the
bottom rack. Twist the Ultra-Fine Filter assembly
counterclockwise and lift to remove for cleaning. Rinse
filter with warm soapy water and use a sponge to
carefully remove any stubborn particles.
For models with a 2-piece Ultra-Fine Filter assembly with
an additional Filter Basket for food particles, twist the
Filter Basket in the counterclockwise direction to unlock
it from the Ultra-Fine Filter assembly. See directional
arrows on the bottom of the Filter Basket. Pull the Filter
Basket to remove from the assembly, throw away any
food particles, rinse with warm soapy water, and use a
sponge to remove any stubborn particles.
Once cleaned, replace Filter Basket back into the
Ultra-Fine Filter assembly and twist it clockwise to lock
into place.
Fine Filter
To clean the Fine Filter (mesh plate), remove the bottom
rack. Remove the Ultra-Fine Filter.
Lift the Fine Filter up and out from under the two rear
retaining tabs. Rinse filter with warm soapy water.
Scouring pads or brushes can scratch the filter surface
but a soft brush or sponge may be needed to remove
stubborn soils or calcium deposits caused by hard water.
Once cleaned, replace the Fine Filter making sure it
goes under the two rear retaining tabs. Replace the
Ultra-Fine Filter.
