How to Change the Filter in My Kenmore Dishwasher
- 1). Lift the latch recessed in the front door of the Kenmore to open the dishwasher, which stops automatically if it is in midcycle. Lower the door.
- 2). Pull the lower rack out of the Kenmore so it is over the open door.
- 3). Grip the plastic lip that protrudes upward from the interior bottom of the Kenmore next to the filter screen. Twist it one half-turn counterclockwise and pull up to remove it. Wash the screen until all the holes in the part are clear and unobstructed.
- 4). Pull out the filter basket underneath the screen. The filter is inside the compartment at the bottom of the Kenmore.
- 5). Wipe the filter opening with a rag to remove grease and any loose food particles before replacing the filter.
- 6). Insert the new filter in the opening and push down until it seats in position.
- 7). Line up the screen with the opening, push down and twist one half-turn clockwise to snap it in place.
