The lower spray arm may be removed  
by pulling it upwards and rotating it  
anti-clockwise. Mounting back the  
spray arm is by pulling it down and

CLEANING THE SPRAY ARMS  
On occasions, food residue  
may become encrusted onto  
the spray arms and block the  
holes used to spray the water.  
It is therefore recommen-  
ded that you check the arms  
from time to time and clean  
them with a small non-me-  
tallic brush.  
The top spray arm may be removed  
by pressing it up and then rotating it  
anti-clockwise. Mounting back the  
spray arm is by pulling it upwards and  
rotating it clockwise.  
To remove the upper spray  
you must remove it together  
with the manifold.  
The Top Rack rack has a fixed wash tube with all the wash nozzles facing  
upward. To clean it you can slide the rack out and with a tweezer remove  
items that may be lodged in the nozzles.
