CARE AND CLEANING
FILTER ASSEMBLY
Inspect and clean the filters periodically. This should be
done every month or more depending on usage. If there is
a decrease in wash performance or dishes feel gritty, this is
also an indication the filters need to be cleaned.
To clean the filter assembly, remove the bottom rack and
lower spray arm. Twist the filter assembly counterclockwise
and lift to remove. Remove the filter plate.
Rinse the filters with warm soapy water. Scouring pads or
brushes can scratch the filter surfaces but a soft brush or
sponge may be needed to remove stubborn soils or calcium
deposits caused by hard water.
Once cleaned, replace the filter plate, insert the filter assembly
through the plate and twist it clockwise until it locks in place.
Make sure the filters are fully seated as improper replacement
of the filters may reduce the performance level of the
appliance. Replace the lower spray arm and lower rack.
STAINLESS STEEL INNER DOOR
AND TUB
The stainless steel used to make the dishwasher tub and
inner door provides the highest reliability available in a Haier
Appliances dishwasher.
If the dishwasher tub or inner door should be scratched
or dented during normal use, they will not rust or corrode.
These surface blemishes will not affect their function or
durability.
PROTECT AGAINST FREEZING
If your dishwasher is left in an unheated place during the winter,
ask a service technician to:
1
Turn off electrical power to the dishwasher. Remove fuses or
trip circuit breaker.
2
Turn off the water supply and disconnect the water inlet line
from the water valve.
3
Drain water from the water inlet line and water valve. (Use a
pan to catch the water.)
4
Reconnect the water inlet line to the water valve.
DOES YOUR DISHWASHER HAVE AN
AIR GAP?
An air gap protects your dishwasher against water backing
up into it if a drain clogs. The air gap is not a part of the
dishwasher. It is not covered by your warranty. Not all plumbing
codes require air gaps, so you may not have one.
The air gap is easy to clean:
1
Turn off the dishwasher and lift off the air gap cover.
2
Remove the plastic cap under the cover and clean with a
toothpick.
3
Replace the cap and cover when the air gap is clean.
If the dishwasher tub or inner door should be scratched or
dented during normal use, they will not rust or corrode.
These surface blemishes will not affect their function or
durability.
