Caring for the dishwasher
To clean the control panel, use a lightly dampened cloth, then dry thoroughly. To clean the exterior, use a good appliance
polish. Never use sharp objects, scouring pads or harsh cleaners on any part of the dishwasher.

Protect Against Freezing
If your dishwasher is left in an unheated place
during the winter, ask a service technician to:
1
Cut off electrical power to the dishwasher.
Remove fuses or trip circuit breaker.
2
Turn off the water supply and disconnect the
water inlet line from the water valve.
Does Your Dishwasher Have an Air Gap?
An air gap protects your dishwasher against
water backing up into it if a drain clogs.
The air gap is not a part of the dishwasher.
It is not covered by your warranty. Not all
plumbing codes require air gaps, so you may not
have one.
Stainless Steel Panels
For cleaning rust and tarnish, cleaners with
oxalic acid such as Bar Keepers Friend Soft
Cleanser™ will remove rust, tarnish and small
blemishes. Use only a liquid cleanser free
of grit and rub in the direction of the brush
lines with a damp soft sponge. Do not use
appliance wax or polish on the stainless steel.
