What Makes Amana Dishwasher Repairs Different
Some Amana dishwashers instead use a maintenance-free filter style with a foreign object cup that is emptied when it fills. Source: Amana - Filter is Dirty - Dishwasher
Amana's triple filter system uses a removable upper filter assembly that protects the pump and a lower filter that keeps food from recirculating, and both need periodic hand cleaning. Source: Amana - How to Clean the Dishwasher Filters
Amana Dishwasher Symptoms and First Checks

- Dishwasher not cleaning. Amana lists soil left on dishes as a sign the filters need cleaning, so the filters are the first thing to clean. Source: Amana - Filter is Dirty - Dishwasher
