CARE AND CLEANING
USER MAINTENANCE INSTRUCTIONS
Clean the control panel with a lightly dampened cloth. Dry thoroughly. Do not use abrasive or sharp objects on the panel. They can damage it.
Clean the outside with a good appliance polish wax. The outside cabinet finish is durable, but it can scratch. So use no scouring pads, or harsh or gritty cleaners.
The inside usually takes care of itself. If it should ever need cleaning, use a mild cleansing powder. Scouring pads and harsh cleaners can mar the finish.
Alternatively, to remove stains inside the PermaTuf¨ tub or, if you wish to refresh the inside of your unit (including the water distribution system), you may also use citric acid. Fill both detergent cups completely with citric acid and run dishwasher through a full cycle without any dishes. You may repeat as often as you feel necessary.
Citric acid is widely available in powder form at most drugstores across the country. Do not use liquid bleach.
DO NOT USE LIQUID BLEACH
