Care and Cleaning
Burn Hazard
Allow heating element to cool
before cleaning the interior.
Failure to do so can result in
burns.
Outside—Clean stainless steel front and
handle with hot soapy water and a soft
dishcloth. Rinse with clean water and wipe dry
with a soft cloth. Wipe stubborn spots with an
ammonia-soaked paper towel, rinse and dry.
Cleaners made especially for stainless steel,
such as Sheila Shine, trademark of Sheila
Shine, Inc., Stainless Steel Magic, trademark
of Magic American Corp., or similar products
are suggested. Always follow manufacturer's
instructions. Clean the control panel with warm
water and mild liquid detergent. Rinse well and
wipe dry with a clean soft cloth. Avoid harsh or
gritty cleaners or scouring pads which may
scratch the finish.
Inside—The inside of the dishwasher is self-
cleaning with normal use. If needed, clean
around the tub gasket area with a damp cloth.
The filter is self-cleaning. A glass trap located
in the center of the filter is designed to collect
pieces of broken glass, straws, bones and pits.
To remove items in glass trap, grasp handle,
lift out, empty and replace.
Note: Hard water may cause lime deposit
buildup on the interior of the dishwasher. For
cleaning instructions see "Removing Spots
and Film" section.
Overfill Protector—keeps dishwasher from
overfilling and is located in the left front corner
of the tub.
• Clean occasionally with household cleaner
containing vinegar or bleach to dissolve
any buildup.
• Overfill Protector should move up and
down freely about one inch. If it does not
move, lift and clean underneath.
Care of Drain Air Gap
If a drain air gap was installed for your built-in
dishwasher, check to make sure it is clean so
the dishwasher will drain properly. A drain air
gap is usually mounted on countertop and can
be inspected by removing the cover. This is not
part of your dishwasher and is not covered by
warranty.
