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

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.

In most cases, regular use of a soft, damp cloth or sponge and a mild detergent is all that 
is necessary to keep the outside of your dishwasher looking nice and clean. If your 
dishwasher has a stainless steel exterior, a stainless steel cleaner is recommended.

Hard water minerals can cause a white film to build up on the inside surfaces, especially 
just beneath the door area.

Do not clean the dishwasher interior until it has cooled. You may want to wear rubber 
gloves. Do not use any type of cleanser other than dishwasher detergent because it may 
cause foaming or sudsing.

To clean interior

Make a paste with powdered dishwasher detergent on a damp sponge and clean.

OR
Use liquid automatic dishwasher detergent and clean with a damp sponge.

OR
See the vinegar rinse procedure in “Cloudy or spotted dishware (and hard water 
solution)” in “Troubleshooting” section.

NOTE: Run a normal cycle with dishwasher detergent after cleaning the interior.

Some state or local plumbing codes require the addition of a drain air gap between a 
built-in dishwasher and the home drain system. Check the drain air gap when your 
dishwasher is not draining well.

The drain air gap is usually located on top of the sink or countertop near the dishwasher. 

NOTE: The drain air gap is an external plumbing device that is not part of your 
dishwasher. The warranty provided with your dishwasher does not cover service costs 
directly associated with the cleaning or repair of the external drain air gap.

Clean the drain air gap periodically to ensure proper drainage of your dishwasher. With 
most types, you lift off the chrome cover. Unscrew the plastic cap. Then check for any soil 
buildup. Clean if necessary.
