This dishwasher has the latest technology in dishwasher filtration. This triple filtration system minimizes sound and optimizes water

and energy consumption while providing superior cleaning performance. Maintain the filter regularly to ensure peak cleaning

performance throughout the life of the dishwasher.

The triple filter system consists of 2 parts, a filter assembly and a stainless steel filter.

■ The filter assembly keeps oversized items and foreign objects, along with very fine food particles, out of the pump.

■ The stainless steel filter keeps food from being recirculated onto your dishware.

Remove, inspect, and clean the filter system once a month for best performance. Filters may need to be cleaned more often

depending on usage. See chart below for details.

The filters may need to be cleaned when:

■ Visible objects or soils are on the filter assembly.

■ There is degradation in cleaning performance (that is, soils still present on dishes).

■ Dishes feel gritty to the touch.

Removing and maintaining the filters is very easy. The chart below shows the recommended cleaning frequency.
