DISHWASHER CARE

Cleaning the exterior

In most cases, regular use of a soft, damp cloth or sponge and a mild detergent is all that is necessary to keep the outside of your dishwasher looking nice and clean. If your dishwasher has a stainless steel exterior, a stainless steel cleaner is recommended.

Cleaning the interior

Hard water minerals can cause a white

film to build up on the

inside surfaces,

 

especially just beneath the door area.

 

 

 

Do not

clean the dishwasher

interior until it has cooled. You may want to wear rubber

 

gloves.

Do not use any type

of cleanser

other than dishwasher

detergent because it

may cause foaming or sudsing.

To clean interior

Make a paste with powdered dishwasher detergent on a damp sponge and clean.

OR

Use liquid automatic dishwasher detergent and clean with a damp sponge.

OR

See the vinegar rinse procedure in "Spotting and filming on dishes" in "Troubleshooting" section.

NOTE: Run a normal cycle with dishwasher detergent after cleaning the interior.

Some state or local plumbing codes require the addition of a drain air gap between a built-in dishwasher and the home drain system. Check the drain air gap when your dishwasher is not draining well.

The drain air gap is usually located on top of the sink or countertop near the dishwasher. To order a drain air gap, please call 1-800-4-MY-HOME ®. Ask for Part Number 300096.

NOTE: The drain air gap is an external plumbing device that is not part of your dishwasher. The warranty provided with your dishwasher does not cover service costs directly associated with the cleaning or repair of the external drain air gap.

To clean the drain air gap

Clean

the drain air

gap periodically

to ensure proper drainage

of your dishwasher. With

 

most

types,

you lift off the chrome

cover. Unscrew the plastic

cap. Then check for any

 

soil buildup.

Clean

if necessary.

 

 

Storing

for

the

summer

If your dishwasher

is not

in use during

the

summer months,

turn off the water supply

 

 

 

 

and power supply to the dishwasher.

 

 

 

 

 

Storing

for

the

winter

Avoid possible

water damage to your

home

and dishwasher

due to freezing water lines.

 

 

 

 

If your dishwasher

is left

in a seasonal

dwelling

or could be exposed

to near freezing

 

 

 

 

temperatures,

have

your

dishwasher winterized

by authorized service

personnel.
