Your dishwasher cleans by spraying a mixture of hot water and detergent through the spray arms against
soiled surfaces. Each cycle begins with a pre-drain. Next, the dishwasher fills with water covering the filter
area. Water is then pumped through the filter and spray arms. Soil particles go down the drain as the water is
pumped out and replaced with clean water. The number of water fills will vary with the cycle being used.
