Should you find something, simply scoop it out. Be sure to replace the black insert before you put the filters back in. To reach an item caught in the drain pump, remove the filters then the small black insert in the sump area. WARNING! Never run the dishwasher without the filters in place. PRO OVERFILL PR OTECTION Your ASKO dishwasher has an overfill protection device that automatically shuts off the inlet valve and starts the drain pump if the water level in the unit should rise above the normal level. If this happens, turn the water off at the main supply and call for service. If there is water in the base pan due to an overfill or small leak, the water must be removed before the dishwasher will start. PRO ELECTRONIC OVERFILL PR OTECTION ON OUR ELECTR ONIC MODELS On Models 1485, 1595, 1805, 1885, and 1895, when an overfill is detected all of the indicator lights on the control panel will flash at once. On Models 1485, 1595, 1885 and 1895, the LED window will also display a fault code (F2). ENERGY SAVING ENER GY SAVING TIPS If you plan to wash the dishes right away, there's no need to pre-rinse.
