Care and Cleaning

Clean the outer surface and door jambs with a lightly dampened cloth. Dry thoroughly. Do not use abrasives or sharp objects; they can damage the dishwasher.

If your model has a stainless steel front panel, clean it with a good appliance polish wax. The outside cabinet finish is durable, but it can scratch. Do not use scouring pads, or harsh or gritty cleaners.

Appliance Polish Wax & Cleaner (Cat. No. WR97X0216) is available from GE Service and Parts Centers.

The inside usually takes care of itself. Keeping your rinse agent dispenser filled all the time will give the tub and inner door of your dishwasher a polished appearance.

Not Using Your Dishwasher in Winter? Protect Against Freezing

If your dishwasher is left in an unheated place during the winter, ask a service technician to:

•Cut off electric power to the dishwasher. Remove fuses or trip circuit breaker.

•Turn off the water supply.

•Disconnect the water inlet line from the water valve.

•Drain water from the inlet line and water valve. (Use a pan to catch the water.)

•Reconnect the water inlet line to the water valve.

•Pour 1 cup non-toxic antifreeze into the sump. (Non-toxic antifreeze available at recreational vehicle stores.)

Built-in Dishwashers Often Use an Air Gap. Keep It Clean

An air gap is a plumbing device. It protects your dishwasher against water backing up into it if a drain clogs. The air gap is not a part of the dishwasher. And you may not even have one. Not all plumbing codes require air gaps.

Check the air gap any time your dishwasher isn’t draining well.

TWO TYPES OF AIR GAPS

If you have an air gap, check it at least once a month. IT IS NOT PART OF YOUR DISHWASHER. IT IS NOT COVERED IN YOUR WARRANTY.

The air gap is easy to clean. With most types, first turn off the dishwasher, then lift off the chrome cover. Then unscrew the plastic cap and check for any buildup of grit. A toothpick makes cleaning easy.

What is Dishwasher-Safe

Keeping Your Dishwasher Filters Clean

Your dishwasher has a filter system comprised of a central filter and a microfilter. At the end of each wash, remove the filter from the bottom of the dishwasher and make sure it is clean.

To check to see if the filter is clogged or dirty, first remove the lower wash arm by lifting it up and off. Turn the center filter assembly handle counterclockwise and pull out.

Remove the microfilter

by pulling it down away from the center filter assembly. Then press the tabs on the inner filter and remove it also. Clean all filter

parts with water and a stiff bristled brush.

To replace, line up the dome on the tube, press down and lock into place by turning clockwise. Replace the wash arm.
