Hi Jim, we appreciate your interest in the LG Fully-Integrated SteamDishwasher™ w/ 3rd Rack, Model # LDF8874ST. This unit has 3 filters, a Mesh Filter, an Outer Filter and an Upper STS Filter that all need to be cleaned of any food debris that might cause odors...^IFV
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.Have to remove it, but it's easily accessible and comes out with a small twist.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You need to clean the filter yourself. Soft foods will get forced through the screening and removed, but hard things will be left in the little basket in the tub floor. You remove it by twisting it in the direction labelled on it and wash it in the sink. Do this weekly and you will not have issues at all.
Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.The dishwasher installer recommended removing and cleaning the screen monthly to remove particles that were too large to pass through to the disposal. The manufacturer also recommends running the dishwasher empty once per month with a dishwasher cleaning product. Both of these items seem to be recommended by most manufacturers for suggested maintenance, regardless of whether or not the unit has a built-in disposal or the home has soft water.

Sorry, there was a problem. Please try again later.You have to clean the filter by hand. It depends on the amount of food left on plates, etc.
