How To Remove And Clean The Upper And Lower Filters?
I have read every word three times on the 8 pages in the User Guide that came with my new dishwasher but nowhere does it explain how to remove the filters for cleaning. On Page 2 it shows a picture of the filters but doesn't show how to remove them for cleaning. It says "See 'Filtration System in full User Guide for complete removal and maintenance. There is no such article in my User Guide.
