Care and Cleaning

General Recommendations

•The dishwasher interior is normally self-cleaning. Periodically check the bottom of the dishwasher tub to see if any large particles remain.

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

•When cleaning stainless steel, always wipe with the grain. Never use products containing chlorine bleach or citric acid.

•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 from dishes, before loading.

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

•Use a dishwasher detergent that contains chlorine to better fight staining.
