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 wax. Never use sharp objects, scouring pads or harsh cleaners on any part of the dishwasher.
Cleaning the Exterior
Cleaning the 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. You may also use a
good appliance wax or polish.
Cleaning the Control Panel
To clean the control panel, use a lightly
dampened cloth; then dry thoroughly. Do
not use sharp objects, scouring pads or
harsh cleaners on the control panel.
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.
You can order Stainless Steel Magic
#WX10X15 through GE Parts by calling
800.626.2002.
Do not wipe the dishwasher with a soiled
dish cloth or wet towel. These may leave
a residue. Do not use scouring pads or
powdered cleaners because these products
can scratch the finish.
