It is necessary to clean the spray arms regularly for hard water chemicals will clog the spray arm jets and bearings.
To remove the spray arm, screw off the nut to take out the washer on top of the spray arm and remove the arm. Wash
the arms in soapy and warm water and use a soft brush to clean the jets. Replace them after rinsing them thoroughly.
Never run the dishwasher without the filters in place.
