Winterizing Your Dishwasher
For dishwashers installed in RV’s, boats, or wherever it will
be exposed to freezing temperatures, take these steps to
protect it from freezing.
1. Cut off electrical power to the dishwasher
2. Turn off the water supply and disconnect the dishwasher
3. Drain the water from the inlet pipe and water valve (Use
a pan to catch the water)
4. Reconnect the water inlet pipe to the water valve.
5. Remove the filter at the bottom of the tub and use a
sponge to soak up any water left in the sump area
NOTE: If your dishwasher cannot work because
it has become frozen, please contact a service
professional.
Cleaning Instructions
The Control Panel
The control panel can be cleaned using a damp cloth and
then dried thoroughly.
The Metal Case
If needed, a gentle appliance wax can be used to polish the
metal case.
Rubber Seals
One reason odors form in dishwashers is when food remains
trapped inside the seals. Periodic cleaning with a damp cloth
will prevent this from occurring.
The Tub
Should spots or stains form on the stainless steel tub, clean
the interior using a cloth dampened with a weak mixture of
water and vinegar or a cleaning product made specifically for
dishwashers.
The Door
The edge around the inside of the dishwasher door can be
cleaned using a damp cloth. Avoid dripping water into the
door lock and electrical components, DO NOT use a spray
cleaner of any kind.
The Spray Arm
To prevent the spray arm jets from clogging, the spray arm
should be cleaned periodically. For easy cleaning, the entire
spray arm can be removed by grasping it at the middle and
pulling upwards. Once removed, rinse the spray arm under
running water to clean the jets. After cleaning, make sure the
spray arm is reinstalled correctly and can turn freely.
