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 or WW then you have a painted door panel. If your model
number ends with SS, then you have a stainless steel door
panel.
Follow the instructions below for cleaning the door panel for
your specific model.
Painted Door Panel (model numbers ending in BB–black or WW–
white.
Use a clean, soft, lightly dampened cloth, then dry thoroughly.
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.
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 dishwasher.
Cleaning the Spray Arms
Because hard water chemicals will clog the spray arm
jets and bearings, it is necessary to clean the spray arms
regularly. Wash the arms in soapy, warm water and use
a soft brush to clean the jets. Replace them after rinsing
thoroughly.

Stainless Steel Door Panel (model numbers ending in SS)
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.
For other blemishes and marks, use 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. You can order Stainless Steel Magic # WX10X29
through GE Appliance Parts by calling 877.959.8688. In
Canada, call 1.800.661.1616.
Do not use sharp objects, scouring pads or harsh cleaners
on the control panel.
You can order citric acid #WD35X151 through GE Appliance Parts

at your local grocery store or by calling GE at the numbers
above and ask for WX10X10019.
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.
