iii ::: ,
The five-level wash system provides excellent cleaning
results. A triple filtration and soil collector system filters the
wash water and prevents food particles from redepositing
on the clean dishes.
The wash water continuously flows through the Ultra-
Fine filter, trapping food particles. A small amount of
water remains under the filter to keep the pump seal
moist.
Water Heating
WATER HEATING glows, and the cycle progression
pauses, whenever water is heated during a cycle.
WATER HEATING
Wash or rinse action continues as the water heats.
• Two water jets, located under the spray arm remove the
food particles from the Ultra-Fine filter.
• A coarse strainer prevents bones, pits, and other large
objects from entering the pump system.
NOTE: Periodically check the coarse strainer and remove
any objects on the strainer.
