Put 2 cups (500 mL) white vinegar in a glass or dishwasher-safe measuring cup on the bottom rack. Run the dishwasher through a complete washing cycle using an air-dry or an energy-saving dry option. cleaning the Filters For best performance and results , the filter assembly must be cleaned regularly. The filter efficiently removes food particles from the wash water, allowing water to be recirculated during the cycle. For this reason, it is a good idea to remove the large food particles trapped in the filter frequently by rinsing the Main Filter, Metal Strainer, and Fine Filter under running water. The entire filter assembly should be cleaned at least once a month. To remove the filter assembly, turn the Main Filter ¼ turn counterclockwise and lift to remove. If you have a drain air gap, check and clean it if the dishwasher isn't draining well. To clean the main filter and fine filter, use a cleaning brush. Then reassemble the filter parts as shown in the illustration and reinsert the entire assembly in the dishwasher, positioning it in place and turning the Main Filter ¼ turn clockwise to secure in place. NOTE: The dishwasher must never be used without the filters. Improper replacement of the filter may reduce the performance level of the appliance and may damage dishes and utensils.
