SPECIAL CARE ITEMS

Care and cleaning

Interior

The dishwasher interior is normally self- cleaning. Periodically check the bottom of the dishwasher tub to see if any large particles have not gone through the strainer portion of the module.

Wipe the edge of the inner door liner to remove any food soil splashes which occurred during loading.

The color from some tomato-based food soils may occasionally adhere to various components of the dishwasher interior, causing temporary discoloration. To minimize this:

➢Remove excess tomato-based food soils off of dishes, prior to loading.

➢Run the Heavy Wash cycle when washing loads containing tomato-based food soils.

➢Change dishwasher detergent and be sure to use a dishwasher detergent that contains chlorine to better fight staining.

Exterior

The front of the dishwasher can be cleaned with a soft damp cloth and liquid spray cleaner. Do not use abrasive powders or cleaning pads.

Stainless Steel Care and Cleaning (select models)

Do not use a cleaning product containing chlorine bleach. Always wipe with the grain of the stainless steel. For daily cleaning and light soil , use a soft cloth or sponge and one of the following: mild detergent and water, a solution of white vinegar and water, Formula 409 Glass and Surface Cleaner* or a similar multi-surface cleaner. Rinse and dry. To polish and to help prevent fingerprints, follow with Stainless Steel Magic Spray* (part No. 20000008)**.

For moderate to heavy soil , clean with Bon Ami*, using a soft cloth or damp sponge. Rinse and dry. To restore luster and to remove streaks, follow with Stainless Steel Magic Spray*.

For discoloration , wipe with Cameo Stainless Steel Cleaner*, using a damp sponge or soft cloth. Rinse immediately and dry. To restore luster and to remove streaks, follow with Stainless Steel Magic Spray*.

Storage/moving

Fill detergent cup with a fresh-scented dishwasher detergent or baking soda and select the Normal Wash cycle. Allow the dishwasher to complete the cycle. Then turn the water supply off and drain the dishwasher. To drain, press the START/Cancel pad once. Operate the drain twice to ensure most of the water is removed. Last, disconnect the electrical supply and prop open the door.

When turning the water supply to the home off, the water shut off at the dishwasher must be turned off also.
