On occasion something may get through the filters and into
the drain pump. The drain pumps on ASKO dishwashers
are designed to automatically reverse if anything should get
caught in the impeller, thus ejecting the item back into the
sump area or down the drain. Should you need to remove
an obstacle from the drain, first turn the power off then
remove the filters (as explained on page 7). Next, lift out the
adaptor piece on the left side of the sump area. (You might
want to remove any standing water first.) You can then look
into the sump area for the item causing the obstruction. You
may need to use your finger to move the pump blade and
loosen the object. Should you find something, simply scoop
it out then replace the adaptor piece and the filters.

WARNING!
Never run the dishwasher without the filters in place.

To reach an item caught in the drain pump, remove the
filters then the small insert in the sump area.

CARE AND CLEANING

The interior of your ASKO dishwasher is made of
surgical quality stainless steel that has been electro-
polished to make it the smoothest surface available.
The smooth surface prohibits the accumulation of dirt
and bacteria inside the unit. If the water in your area is
especially hard, however, lime deposits could form

Coarse filter

Larger items, such as pieces of bone or glass, that
could clog the drain are trapped in the coarse filter.
To remove an item caught in this filter, gently
squeeze the tabs on top of this filter and lift it out.

Main filter

Food and soil particles trapped by this filter are
pulverized by a special jet on the lower spray arm
and washed down the drain.

Fine filter

This filter holds soil and food residue in the sump
area and prevents it from being redeposited on the
dishes during a cycle.

For your convenience, we have placed the drain pump
and filtering system within easy reach inside the tub.
There are three components of the filtering system:  the
main filter, the coarse filter, and the fine filter.

In hard water areas, it may be necessary to clean
chemical buildup from the filters every 12 to 18 months.

inside the machine. If this happens, you can remove
them by putting two tablespoons of citric acid in the
detergent compartment and running a Normal program.
In extremely hard water areas you may need to repeat
this process a few times to remove hard water deposits.

To do this, remove the coarse filter by squeezing the
tabs and lifting it out. Next, unscrew the fine filter and lift
it and the main filter out. Wash all three filters gently in
hot, soapy water and rinse them thoroughly.

WARNING!
Never run the dishwasher without the filters in
place.

To clean the edge around the door, use only a soft warm,
damp rag. To prevent penetration of water into the door
lock and electrical components, 

do not use a spray

cleaner of any kind

.

Also, never use abrasive cleaners or scouring pads on
the outer surfaces because they will scratch the finish.
Some papers towels can also scratch or leave marks on
the surface.

Never use a spray cleaner of any
kind on the door panel. You could
damage the door lock and
electrical components. And never
use abrasive cleaners or scouring
pads on the outer surfaces
because they will
scratch the finish. Also,
some paper towels can
scratch or leave marks
on the stainless steel
surface.
