DISHWASHER CARE
Cleaning
Cleaning the exterior
In most cases, regular use of a soft, damp cloth or sponge and a mild detergent
is all that is necessary to keep the outside of your dishwasher looking nice and
clean. If your dishwasher has a stainless steel exterior, a stainless steel cleaner (Part
Number W10355016 or W10355049) may be ordered from
Sears.com . Do not use
abrasive cleaning products on the exterior of your dishwasher.
Cleaning the interior
Hard water minerals can cause a white film to build up on the inside surfaces,
especially just beneath the door area.
Do not clean the dishwasher interior until it has cooled. You may want to wear
rubber gloves. Do not use any type of cleanser other than dishwasher detergent
because it may cause foaming or sudsing.
To clean the interior:
Make a paste with powdered dishwasher detergent on a damp sponge and clean.
OR
Use liquid automatic dishwasher detergent and clean with a damp sponge.
OR
See the vinegar rinse procedure in “Cloudy or spotted dishware” in the
“Troubleshooting” section.
NOTE: Run a normal cycle with dishwasher detergent after cleaning the interior.
Drain Air Gap
Some state or local plumbing codes require the addition of a drain air gap between
a built-in dishwasher and the home drain system. Check the drain air gap when your
dishwasher is not draining well.
The drain air gap is usually located on top of the sink or countertop near the
dishwasher. To order a drain air gap, please call
1-844-553-6667 . Ask for Part
Number 300096.
NOTE: The drain air gap is an external plumbing device that is not part of your
dishwasher. The warranty provided with your dishwasher does not cover service costs
directly associated with the cleaning or repair of the external drain air gap.
To clean the drain air gap
Clean the drain air gap periodically to ensure proper drainage of your dishwasher.
With most types, lift off the chrome cover. Unscrew the plastic cap. Then check for
any soil buildup. Clean if necessary.
Vacation or Extended Time Without Use
To reduce the risk of
property damage
■
If you will not be using the dishwasher during the summer months, turn off the
water and power supply to the dishwasher.
■
Make sure the water supply lines are protected against freezing conditions. Ice
formations in the supply lines can increase water pressure and damage your
dishwasher or home. Damage from freezing is not covered by the warranty.
■
When storing your dishwasher in the winter, avoid water damage by having
your dishwasher winterized by authorized service personnel.
