• For best wash performance, clean the filter after each
load. If food debris remains in the filter, it may cause
odor.

sembled correctly. If the filter is not assembled correctly,
you may experience poor cleaning results.
• If you have hard water, cleaning this filter at least once
a month is recommended.
