4.
To re-assemble and replace the filter assembly, follow above directions in reverse order.
CAUTION: Inspect the filters every time the dishwasher has been used.
WARNING: Improper replacement of the filter may reduce the performance level of the appliance and damage
dishes and utensils.
CLEANING THE FILTER
To clean the coarse filter and the fine filter, use a soft cleaning brush. Remove any food remnants and clean the
filters under running water.
NOTE: When cleaning the filters, DO NOT knock them against hard surfaces as that could damage them,
affecting the performance of the dishwasher.
NOTE: Hard water can adversely affect the performance of your dishwasher. Hard water conditions will also
contribute to 'lime' (white filmy substance) deposits and/or 'scaling' on the surface of the dishwasher tub and
heater element, located in the sump underneath the removable filter screen. It is recommended to run the
washer empty and rinse the inside using 1 cup of white vinegar at least once a week.
DISHWASHER CARE
The control panel can be cleaned by using a lightly dampened cloth. Dry thoroughly. Dishwasher exterior can be
cleaned with a regular, non-abrasive multipurpose cleaner or polish wax. Never use sharp objects, scouring pads
or harsh cleaners on any part of the dishwasher.
CLEANING THE DOOR
To clean the edge around the door, you should use only a warm, damp
cloth. To avoid water contact between the door lock and electrical
components, DO NOT use a spray cleaner of any kind.
WARNING:
Never use a spray cleaner to clean the door panel as it may
damage the door lock and electrical components.
Abrasive cleaners and some types of paper towels may scratch the
finish, and should not be used.
PROTECT AGAINST FREEZING
If the dishwasher will be exposed to cold temperatures, it is necessary to take the following steps to prevent
damage from freezing.
After each wash cycle:
1.
Turn off and unplug 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 water valve, using 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 absorb water in sump.
NOTE: Contact a qualified service technician if frost or ice buildup prevents the dishwasher from working.
