Cleaning the Exterior Door Panel

 

Safety

Before cleaning the front panel, make

sure you know what type of panel you have. Refer to the last two letters of your model number. You can locate your model number on the left-hand tub wall just inside the door. If your model number ends with BB, CC, WW, SA or BG, then you have a Painted Door panel. If your model number ends with SS, then you have a Stainless Steel Door panel. If your model number ends with CS, then you have a CleanSteel panel.

Follow the instructions below for cleaning the door panel for your specific model.

Painted Door Panel (model numbers ending in BB–black, CC–bisque, WW–White, SA–silver metallic or BG–graphite black)

Use a clean, soft, lightly dampened cloth, then dry thoroughly. You may also use a good appliance wax or polish.

Stainless Steel Door Panel (model numbers

ending in SS)

The stainless steel panels can be cleaned with Stainless Steel Magic or a similar product using a clean, soft cloth. Do not use appliance wax, polish, bleach or products containing chlorine on Stainless Steel doors.

You can order Stainless Steel Magic #WX10X15 through GE Parts by calling 800.626.2002.

CleanSteel Door Panel (model numbers ending in CS)

Use a clean, soft, lightly dampened cloth, then dry thoroughly. Do not use appliance wax, polish or any chemical agent on CleanSteel doors.

Do not wipe the dishwasher with a soiled dish cloth or wet towel. These may leave a residue. Do not use scouring pads or powdered cleaners because these products can scratch the finish.

Stainless Steel Interior—Tub and Inner Door

The stainless steel used to make the dishwasher tub and inner door provides the highest reliability available in a GE dishwasher. If the dishwasher tub or inner door should be scratched or dented during normal use, they will not rust or corrode. These surface blemishes will not affect their function or durability.

Cleaning the Control Panel

To clean the control panel, use a lightly dampened cloth. Then dry thoroughly.

Troubleshooting Tips

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

1Cut off electrical power to the dishwasher. Remove fuses or trip circuit breaker.

2Turn off the water supply and disconnect the water inlet line from the water valve.

3Drain water from the water inlet line and water valve. (Use a pan to catch the water.)

4Reconnect the water inlet line to the water valve.
