A comprehensive Operating and Service Manual. All schematics are complete and easy to read. The PCB drawings and complete parts list are very helpful. I would definitely recommend this manual.
Genuine Toshiba owner's manual. Couldn't really ask for more. And written in understandable English in contrast to a few recent experiences I have had with manuals for other equipment other than Toshiba but made in China and written in "Chinglish"!

Maintenance and cleaning
Internal cleaning
Ensure that the seals around the door, the detergent and rinse aid dispensers are cleaned regularly with a damp cloth. We recommend every 3 months to run a 65°C wash programme without dishes using detergent.
Cleaning the central filter
(After each wash) Scraps of food may accumulate in the drain filter (A) and should be removed by rinsing the filter under running water. To remove the drain filter - simply pull it out by the handle. Once cleaned, refit the filter by pushing it back to its original position until it engages.

The dishwasher must not be used without filters. Incorrect repositioning and fitting of the filters will produce poor washing results. Cleaning the filters is vital to ensure correct operation of the machine.
