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.

Hard water may cause lime deposit buildup on the

interior of the dishwasher. For cleaning instructions see

“Removing Spots and Film” section.

Outside

Occasionally wipe with a mild

nonabrasive detergent and water. Rinse and dry.

Models with Stainless Steel Door

Clean outer door with warm soapy water and a dishcloth

or sponge. Rinse with clean water and a dry cloth. Do not
use harsh cleaners.

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.

Winterizing

A dishwasher left in an unheated place should be

protected from freezing. Have a qualified person do the
following:

To Disconnect Service:

1. Turn off electrical power to the dishwasher at the

supply source by removing fuses or tripping circuit

breaker.

2. Shut off water supply.
3. Place a pan under the inlet valve. Disconnect water

line from inlet valve and drain into pan.

4. Disconnect drain line from pump and drain water

into pan.

To Restore Service:

1. Reconnect the water, drain, and electrical power

supply.

2. Turn on water and electrical power supply.
3. Fill both detergent cups and run dishwasher through

a HEAVY WASH cycle.

4. Check connections to make sure they do not leak.

Allow heating element to cool before

cleaning the interior.

Failure to do so can result in burns.
