Winterizing Your Dishwasher
CAUTION: POSSIBLE
DISHWASHER DAMAGE -
FREEZING TEMPERATURES CAN
DAMAGE THE DISHWASHER. DO
NOT ALLOW WATER TO REMAIN
IN THE DISHWASHER THROUGH
EXTENDED PERIODS OF
FREEZING TEMPERATURES.
If your dishwasher will be unused
for an extended period of time in a
location that experiences freezing
temperatures (e.g., in a holiday home
or through a vacation period), you
must drain all the water from the
dishwasher’s interior. Turn off the
water supply, disconnect the drain
hose, and allow your dishwasher to
completely drain into a bucket or
other appropriate receptacle.
Check/Clean the Filter System
Your dishwasher has a filter system
made up of a Large Object Trap/
Cylinder Filter assembly and a Fine
Filter on the floor of the dishwasher
tub. During normal use the filter
system is self-cleaning. The filter
system is accessible and and easily
cleaned.
The Large Object Trap/Cylinder
Filter assembly prevents large
objects such as bones, glass,
toothpicks, seeds, and straws from
entering the pump system and
causing damage or noise. Frequently
inspect the filter system and clean it
whenever you find foreign objects.
(Care and Maintenance, continued)

Cylinder Filter Assembly:
1. Grasp the ring handle, as shown in
