Care and cleaning.

Cleaning the Exterior Door Panel

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 ES 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 II, then you have an Integrated door 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 or ES-slate)

Use a clean, soft, lightly dampened cloth, then dry thoroughly.

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.

Do not use scouring pads or powder cleaners because these products can scratch the finish.

You can order Stainless Steel Magic #WX10X29 through GE Parts by calling 1.877.959.8688 or visiting GEApplianceparts.com. In Canada, call 1-800-661-1616.

Integrated Door Panel (model numbers ending in II)

This is a custom installed door panel, and you will need to refer to the cabinet manufacturers recommendations for proper cleaning.

Cleaning the Control Panel

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

Cleaning the Dishwasher Interior

To clean and de-odorize your dishwasher, use citric acid or Lemi Shine®*, a detergent additive. Lemi Shine will break up mineral deposits, and remove hard water film and stains. You can order citric acid #WD35X151 through GE Parts by calling 877-959-8688 or visiting GEApplianceparts.com. In Canada, call 1-800-661-1616. You can purchase Lemi Shine at your local grocery store or by calling GE at the numbers above and ask for WX10X10019.

Stainless Steel Inner Door and Tub

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.
