IMPORTANT:
Keeping your dishwasher filter clean is key to keeping your dishes clean. Make sure the filter is clean EVERY
TIME before you using the dishwasher. Cleaning the filter helps prevent buildup and clogs and ensures your dishwasher run
smoothly.
• Inspect the filters for blockage after each wash cycle.
• To remove blockages, unscrew the coarse filter to remove the filter system. Remove any food and clean the filters under
running water.
• Clean the entire filter assembly once a week.
•
Use a cleaning brush to clean the coarse and fine filter.
• Use a lightly dampened cloth to clean the control panel. Dry thoroughly.
• Use a dishwasher polish wax on the exterior.
• Never use sharp objects, scouring pads, or harsh cleaners on any part of the dishwasher.
How to Clean the Door
Use a soft, warm, damp cloth to clean the edge around the door. Do not use a spray cleaner of any kind to avoid
getting liquid on the door lock and electrical components.
How to Protect Against Freezing
Please take frost protection measures on dishwasher during cold weather seasons. After each wash cycle, do the
following:
1. Turn off the power to the dishwasher.
2. Turn off the water supply and disconnect the water inlet pipe from the water valve.
3. Drain water from the inlet pipe and the water valve. Use a pan to catch the water.
4. Reconnect the water inlet pipe to the water valve.
5. Remove the filter at the bottom of the tub and use a sponge to soak up the water in the sump.
WARNING!
Do not use abrasive cleaning agents or rough paper towels to avoid scratching or marring the stainless
steel surface.
WARNING!
When cleaning the filters, do not knock them against surfaces. This can contort the filters and affect
the performance of your dishwasher.
