Cleaning the interior

If mineral deposits from hard water accumu- late on the interior of your dishwasher, clean with a damp cloth or follow the instructions indicated in "Removing spots and film" on page 23.

•Do not clean the dishwasher interior until it has cooled.

•Do not use any type of cleanser that may cause foaming or sudsing. Use cleansers made for stainless steel products.

•Run the dishwasher through a Normal cycle

with detergent after you are finished cleaning the interior.

Cleaning the exterior

Wipe the control panel, front, and sides with a damp cloth, then dry. Never use detergents

or abrasive cleansers which may damage the finish.

Storing your dishwasher

Storing for the winter

Protect your dishwasher and water lines against freezing if they are exposed to freezing temperatures in a seasonal dwell- ing. Refer to the Installation Instructions and have a qualified person do the following:

1.Close the door.

2.Turn off electrical power supply to the dishwasher.

3.Remove the 4 screws attaching access panel and lower panel to dishwasher using a 1/4"hex socket, nut driver, or Phillips screwdriver. Remove panels and set panels aside on a protective surface.

4.Shut off the water supply. Place a pan under the fill valve and disconnect at both

inlet and outlet sides. Drain water into pan.

5.Place a pan under the check valve outlet and disconnect the flexible tubing at the check valve. Drain the machine water

into pan. Leave the fill and check valves disconnected.

To restore service, reconnect the fill valve

and the flexible tubing at the check valve. Turn on the electrical power supply and the water supply. Close and latch the door. Select the Normal cycle and let the machine com- plete the cycle. Check connections to make sure they are watertight and do not leak.
