consists of
three parts.
Cleaning intervals
The filter system
1b
is designed to
minimize maintenance while
providing premium cleaning
performance and minimum energy
consumption.
Depending on use habits and water
hardness, the filter system will require
some maintenance to sustain
premium cleaning performance.
Your filter system may need to be
cleaned when:
■
You notice food soils remaining
on the filter system or objects
trapped in the Large Object Trap.
■
A drop in cleaning performance
or a gritty film forms on the
dishware.
When washing normally attached
food soils that have been scraped
before loading, in a household that
runs the dishwasher every other day,
your filter should be cleaned:
Note:
Clean the filter after washing
loads with large amounts of food
soils or loads with a heavy starch
content, like potatoes and pasta, to
maintain optimal performance.
A Large Object Trap
Prevents objects that should not
be placed in your dishwasher
from damaging the dishwasher
pump system or clogging your
household drain.
B Flat Fine Filter
Prevents food particles from
entering the wash chamber and
directs particles toward the micro
filter.
C Micro Filter
Directs the smallest of particles
to the household plumbing drain.
