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 BB, CC, WW, SA, ES, DS
or TS then you have a painted door panel. If your model
number ends with SS, then you have a Stainless Steel
door panel. If your model number ends with II, then you
have an Integrated door panel.
Follow
the instructions below for cleaning the door panel
for your specific model.
