How Electrolux Dishwashers Are Built
Electrolux dishwashers use a manually cleaned filter pair: a cylinder fine filter that twists out counterclockwise and a coarse filter in the tub bottom beneath it. Source: Electrolux - Dishwasher Glass Trap and Filter Guide
Some built-in installs use a countertop drain air gap, which is a separate plumbing part and has its own filter to clean. Source: Electrolux - Dishwasher Glass Trap and Filter Guide

- Dishwasher odor. Electrolux says to run a rinse-only cycle if the dishwasher won't be run soon and to make sure it is draining properly. Source: Electrolux - Why does my dishwasher have an odor and how do I fix it?
