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 
Café dishwasher.
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.

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 D1 or W2 then you have a painted door 
panel. If your model number ends with S1, 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 D1–Matte 

Black or W2–Matte White)
Use a clean, soft, lightly dampened cloth, then dry 
thoroughly.

Stainless Steel Door Panel 

(model numbers ending in S1)

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
