It is the cage that catches your pieces of food. When removing them, screws or bolts must be removed. Be careful once you remove the filter to avoid dropping the screws into the now uncovered drain hole.

The lower part of these filters may be coarse. Clean the filters in a well full of hot water and vinegar.

Use a damp vacuum cleaner to remove all water, debris from the bottom of your dishwasher and empty the drain hole (if you do not have a wet vacuum, you can use a paper towel and clean it hand).

3. Fill a vaporizer with vinegar and spray on sediment or visible dirt.

Apply the paste with a sponge, then rub with a rag. Wear rubber gloves, especially if your skin is sensitive.

9. Replace the lower grill in the dishwasher.

Turn the cutlery basket upside down. Fill the detergent compartment with vinegar and place a bowl full of vinegar in the top rack. Set the dishwasher to the hottest cycle. The bowl full of vinegar fills with water, overflowing and dispensing vinegar throughout the cycle.
