CARING FOR YOUR DISHWASHER

CARING FOR YOUR DISHWASHER

Overfill protector

The overfill protector (in the front right corner of the dishwasher tub) keeps the dishwasher from overfilling. It must be in place for the dishwasher to operate.

Check under the float for objects that may keep the protector from moving up or down.

Moving or winterizing your dishwasher

Protect your dishwasher and home against water damage due to freezing water lines. If your dishwasher is left in a seasonal dwell- ing or could be exposed to near freezing temperatures, have a qualified person do the following:

1.Disconnect power or unplug dishwasher.

2.Turn off water supply to the dishwasher.

3.Remove the 4 screws on the lower access panel and remove the lower access panel.

4.Place a shallow pan under the water supply valve. Then, use a wrench to disconnect the water inlet from the water supply valve. Separate the water inlet from the water supply valve and drain water into the pan.

5.Remove the spring clamp from the water outlet and separate from the water supply valve; drain water into pan.

6.Reconnect both water inlet and water outlet to the water supply valve.

7.Empty the pan and reposition it under the water pump.

8.Remove the clamp and disconnect the drain hose from the water pump; drain water into pan.

9.Reconnect drain hose to the water pump, being sure to position the clamp over the connection.

10.Replace the lower access panel.
