Filter Reinstallation Instructions

Noting the previous illustrations, place the Lower Filter under the Locating Tabs in the

bottom of the dishwasher so the round opening for the Upper Filter Assembly lines up

with the round opening in the bottom of the tub.

Insert the Upper Filter Assembly into the circular opening in the Lower Filter.

Slowly rotate the filter clockwise until it drops into place. Continue to rotate until the

filter is locked into place. If the filter is not fully seated (still turns freely), continue to

turn the filter clockwise until it drops and locks into place.

NOTE: The Upper Filter Assembly arrow does not have to align with the arrow in the

Lower Filter as long as the filter is locked.

To replace Upper Filter Assembly

IMPORTANT: To avoid damage to dishwasher, do not operate your dishwasher without the ULTRA WASH®”^^ filters properly

installed. Be sure the Lower Filter is securely in place and the Upper Filter Assembly is locked into place. If the Upper Filter

Assembly turns freely, it is not locked into place.

DISHWASHER EFFICIENCY TIPS

Hot water dissolves and activates the dishwasher detergent. Hot water also dissolves grease on dishes and helps glasses dry

spot-free. For best dishwashing results, water should be 120°F (49°C) as it enters the dishwasher. Loads may not wash as well if

the water temperature is too low.

Additional efficiency tips

■

To save water, energy and time, only scrape dishes. Do not rinse dishes before putting them into the dishwasher.

■

Use a delay feature to run your dishwasher during off-peak hours. Local utility providers recommend avoiding heavy usage

of energy at certain times of day.

■

During the summer, run your dishwasher at night. This reduces daytime heat buildup in the kitchen.

■

Use a rinse aid to improve drying.
