Care of Drain Air Gap
If a drain air gap was installed for your built-in dishwasher, check to make sure it is
clean so the dishwasher will drain properly. A drain air gap is usually mounted on
the sink at the countertop and can be inspected by removing the cover. This is not
part of your dishwasher and is not covered by warranty.
