48 MAINTENANCE Cleaning the Filters 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. WARNING ••Be cautious of sharp edges when handling the stainless steel filter. CAUTION ••Remove food residue caught in filters to prevent the build up 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. ••Make sure the filter is assembled correctly before starting a cycle. When assembling, rotate it firmly until it clicks. 4 To replace the assembled filters, position the spray arm so the wider vee is toward the front. Fit the filters back into the filter holder and secure them by turning the inner filter clockwise until it clicks into place.
