DRAIN AIR GAP
Check the drain air gap anytime your dishwasher isn’t draining well. Some state
or local plumbing codes require the addition of a drain air gap between a built-
in dishwasher and the home drain system. If a drain is clogged, the drain air gap
protects your dishwasher from water backing up into it.
The drain air gap is usually located on top of the sink or countertop near the
dishwasher.
NOTE: The drain air gap is an external plumbing device that is not part of your
dishwasher. The warranty provided with your dishwasher does not cover service
costs directly associated with the cleaning or repair of the external drain air gap.
To Clean the Drain Air Gap:
Clean the drain air gap periodically to ensure proper drainage of your dishwasher.
Follow the cleaning instructions provided by the manufacturer.
With most types:
1.
2.
3. Clean plastic cap with a toothpick.

WINTERIZING YOUR DISHWASHER
Protect your dishwasher and home against water damage caused by freezing water

freezing temperatures, have your dishwasher winterized by authorized service personnel.
