DISHWASHER CARE
Cleaning the exterior
In most cases, regular use of a soft, damp cloth or sponge and a mild detergent is
all that is necessary to keep the outside of your dishwasher looking nice and
clean. If your dishwasher has a stainless steel exterior, a stainless steel cleaner is
recommended.
/
Cleaning the interior
Hard water minerals can cause a white film to build up on the inside surfaces,
especially just beneath the door area.
Do not clean the dishwasher interior until it has cooled. You may want to wear
rubber gloves. Do not use any type of cleanser other than dishwasher detergent
because it may cause foaming or sudsing.
To clean interior
Make a paste with powdered dishwasher detergent on a damp sponge and clean.
OR
Use liquid automatic dishwasher detergent and clean with a damp sponge.
OR
See the vinegar rinse procedure in "Spotting and filming on dishes" in
"Troubleshooting" section.
NOTE: Run a normal cycle with dishwasher detergent after cleaning the interior.
Some state or local plumbing codes require the addition of a drain air gap
between a built-in dishwasher and the home drain system. Check the drain air
gap when your dishwasher is not draining well.
The drain air gap is usually located on top of the sink or countertop near the
dishwasher. To order a drain air gap, please call 1-800-4-MY-HOME ®. Ask for
Part Number 300096.
NOTE: The drain air gap is an external plumbing device that is not part of your
dishwasher. The warranty provided with your dishwasher does not cover service
costs directly associated with the cleaning or repair of the external drain air gap.
To clean the drain air gap
Clean the drain air gap periodically to ensure proper drainage of your
dishwasher. With most types, you lift off the chrome cover. Unscrew the plastic
cap. Then check for any soil buildup. Clean if necessary.
Storing for the summer If your dishwasher is not in use during the summer months, turn off the water
supply and power supply to the dishwasher.
Storing for the winter Avoid possible water damage to your home and dishwasher due to freezing
water lines. If your dishwasher is left in a seasonal dwelling or could be exposed
to near freezing temperatures, have your dishwasher winterized by authorized
service personnel.
