How do I clean the filter screen on my dishwasher?

To clean the filter screen, first unload the bottom rack and slide it forward or remove it to reach the filter screen. Remove collected particles from the screen with your fingers or a paper towel, then replace the bottom rack with the rack bumpers facing the door. Do not clean the dishwasher interior until it has cooled. (Page 16)
