Reinstall the front filler plate, the residue basket, the upper spray arm, and the main spray arm in the reverse order (press the spray arms down vertically until you hear a click and you cannot lift them gently.

■ Recommendations on Servicing of Dishwasher

1. Clean the panel and door glass manually with hot water and a small amount of detergent. Wipe with sponge cloth and dry with soft cloth after cleaning. Do not rub with scouring pad or metal wire articles to avoid scratching the surface.
2. Apply a layer of oil to the liner for protection in case of long-time idleness of dishwasher.
3. Use neutral detergent to clean the liner and inner door, and clean the both completely with clean water. Clean gently, avoid using steel brush or rough brush, and dry with sponge or cloth after cleaning.
4. Do not place lemons, sauces, pickles, mustard or other salty or corrosive food on the inner parts such as the liner and inner door for a long time to prevent corrosion.
5. Try to avoid long-term contact between the liner & the inner door and powerful bleaching powder, household chemicals and soap.
6. Try to avoid sharp and hard utensils such as knives, forks, and cookers from hitting the liner and the inner door. Push the dish rack into the cavity to prevent scratches, scratches, or dents on surface.
7. Do not put low-carbon steel or cast-iron cookware in the liner for a long time, and do not leave steel wool, rubber dishwashing sheets, wet dishwashing sponges, or other cleaning pads in the liner to avoid "floating rust" and "mildew spots" in the long run.
8. If any "floating rust" or "mildew spots" are found on the liner, apply five-cleaning powder or toothpaste to the rust and spots, and then clean them with a rag. But do not clean the liner with scouring wire, polishing sheets, or polishing materials.
   9 When water scale is produced in the liner due to lack of softening salt, add the softening salt in time, and put a washing tablet or a small amount of sodium citrate in the dishwasher liner. Run any complete program before quick washing.
