40 MAINTENANCE
Clogged Drain Air Gap or In-Sink
Disposal
Check the drain air gap or in-sink disposal if the
dishwasher is not draining well.
NOTE
• The drain air gap and disposal are external
plumbing devices that are not part of the
dishwasher.
• The warranty provided with the dishwasher does
not cover service costs directly associated with
the cleaning or repair of the external drain air
gap and disposal.
Cleaning the Air Gap
1
Turn off the dishwasher.
2
Remove the air gap cover and the plastic cap
underneath it.
3
Clean out any debris with a toothpick or
brush.
4
Replace the plastic cap and air gap cover.
Cleaning the Filters
WARNING
• Be cautious of sharp edges when handling the
stainless steel filter.
CAUTION
• Remove food residue caught in filters to prevent
the buildup of odor-causing bacteria and
possible drainage problems.
NOTE
• For best wash performance, clean the filter after
each load. If food debris remains in the filter, it
may cause an odor.
• In areas with hard water, clean the filter at least
once a month with a soft brush.
• Clean the filters using non-abrasive materials
and warm running water.
1
Remove the lower rack and position the
bottom spray arm so a wider vee is open to
the front.
2
Turn the inner filter counter-clockwise and
take out the assembled inner filter and
stainless steel filter.
With the filters removed, check the sump
opening and remove any foreign materials, if
needed.
3
Clean the filters with a soft brush under
running water. Reassemble the filters before
reinstalling them.
