en-us Care and Maintenance Filters The Bosch® filter system 1j is designed to prevent the need to pre-rinse normally attached food soils from your dishes. Simply scrape leftover food soils off of dishware before loading. This process will conserve time, water and the energy require to heat your household water supply. Your dishwasher filter system is designed to filter 100% of the water entering the spray arms to provide a continuous supply of clean water to remove food soils from your dishware. Filter components The filter system 1j consists of three parts. $ % & A Large Object Trap Prevents objects that should not be placed in your dishwasher from damaging the dishwasher pump system or clogging your household drain. B Flat Fine Filter Prevents food particles from entering the wash chamber and directs particles toward the micro filter. C Micro Filter Directs the smallest of particles to the household plumbing drain. Cleaning intervals The filter system 1j is designed to minimize maintenance while providing premium cleaning performance and minimum energy consumption. Depending on use habits and water hardness, the filter system will require some maintenance to sustain premium cleaning performance. Your filter system may need to be cleaned when: ■ You notice food soils remaining on the filter system or objects trapped in the Large Object Trap. ■ A drop in cleaning performance or a gritty film forms on the dishware. When washing normally attached food soils that have been scraped before loading, in a household that runs the dishwasher every other day, your filter should be cleaned: Cleaning interval Use this setting, 3 times a year if you rinse before loading 4 times a year if you only scrape before loading 6 times a year if you do not rinse or scrape before loading 12 times a year if you have hard water Note: Clean the filter after washing loads with large amounts of food soils or loads with a heavy starch content, like potatoes and pasta, to maintain optimal performance. 40
