A glass trap is located in the bottom of the dishwasher next to the filter. This
trap is designed to collect pieces of small bone, pits, or larger pieces of food.
It will need to be emptied. To remove items from the glass trap, grasp the
handle and lift the glass trap out. Empty and clean, and then replace the
glass trap before the next use.
Overfill Protector

rinse cycle. It is located in the lower left front corner of the dishwasher
bottom. The overfill protector should move up and down freely about one
inch.
?Clean the protector occasionally with household cleaner containing
vinegar or bleach to dissolve any buildup.
?To ensure easy movement, clean underneath the protector.
