Know Your KitchenAid Dishwasher
How KitchenAid Dishwashers Are Built
Most KitchenAid dishwashers use a two-part manual filter (an upper assembly and a lower filter) that must be removed and rinsed by hand, while select models with the Advanced Clean Water Wash System use a maintenance-free microfiltration setup with a cup that catches hard objects.

Some KitchenAid dishwashers have a Leak Detection System using sensors, a flow monitor and a drip tray that stops the cycle, drains the tub and signals that service is needed. Source: KitchenAid - Dishwasher Leaks
