Caring for Surfaces
Exterior
Wash with a mild, nonabrasive detergent and water. Rinse and dry.
Interior
Do not clean the dishwasher interior until it has cooled.
The interior is self-cleaning with normal use. If hard water causes lime deposit buildup, clean
using the following instructions:
1. After dishwasher begins to fill, open door and pour two (2) cups of vinegar into the
dishwasher. Do not add dishes or detergent.
2. Run the machine through any full wash cycle.
ENERGY SAVER DRY (AIR DRY) option
Heater is off during the entire drying period, saving energy.
Note: If you wish to shorten the drying time and save energy, turn
the control knob to OFF at the beginning of the dry cycle and open
the dishwasher door slightly.
CARING FOR YOUR DISHWASHER
Cleaning the Drain Air Gap
If the installer of your built-in dishwasher installed an air gap in the drain system, it should be
checked periodically to make sure it is clean. Air gaps are usually mounted on the counter top
or in the wall above the dishwasher and can be inspected by removing the cover.
