CARE AND CLEANING
Clean the control panel with a lightly dampened
cloth.
Dry thoroughly. Do not use abrasive or
sharp objects on the panel. They can damage it.
The inside usually takes care of itself.
If it should
ever need cleaning, use a mild cleansing powder.
Scouring pads and harsh cleaners can mar the
finish.
Alternatively, to remove stains inside the
PermaTuf® tub or, if you wish to refresh the inside
of your unit (including the water distribution
system), you may also use citric acid. Fill both
detergent cups completely with citric acid and run
dishwasher through a full cycle without any dishes.
You may repeat as often as you feel necessary.
Citric acid
is widely available in powder form at
most drugstores across the country. Do not use
liquid bleach.
