CARE AND CLEANING
FILTER ASSEMBLY
Inspect and clean the filters periodically. This should be done ev-
ery month or more depending on usage. If there is a decrease in
wash performance or dishes feel gritty, this is also an indication
the filters need to be cleaned.
To clean the filter assembly, remove the bottom rack and lower
spray arm. Twist the filter assembly counterclockwise and lift to
remove. Remove the filter plate.
Lower Spray Arm
Rinse the filters with warm soapy water. Scouring pads or
brushes can scratch the filter surfaces but a soft brush or sponge
may be needed to remove stubborn soils or calcium deposits
caused by hard water.
Once cleaned, replace the filter plate, insert the filter assembly
through the plate and twist it clockwise until it locks in place.
Make sure the filters are fully seated as improper replacement of
the filters may reduce the performance level of the appliance.
Replace the lower spray arm and lower rack.

STAINLESS STEEL INNER DOOR AND TUB
The stainless steel used to make the dishwasher tub and inner
door provides the highest reliability available in a Haier
Appliances dishwasher.
If the dishwasher tub or inner door should be scratched or dented
during normal use, they will not rust or corrode. These surface
blemishes will not affect their function or durability.
