User Maintenance
Keeping your dishwasher clean improves its performance, reduces unnecessary
repairs, and lengthens it’s life.
Cleaning the Exterior
It’s best to clean spills on the outside of your dishwasher as they occur. Use a soft,
damp cloth on the control panel to gently wipe away spills and dust. Do not use
benzene, wax, thinner, chlorine bleach, or alcohol. These materials may discolor the
inner walls and cause stains. Do not clean the dishwasher by sprinkling water over it
and avoid letting water come into contact with any of the electrical parts.
If your dishwasher has a stainless steel door panel, you can clean it with a
stainless steel cleaner for home appliances or a similar product using a clean, soft
cloth.
Cleaning the Interior
Clean the interior of your dishwasher periodically to remove any dirt or food particles.
Wipe the inside of the dishwasher and the inner part of the door with a wet dishcloth.
We recommend filling the detergent dispenser with dish detergent, and then running
the dishwasher empty periodically using either the normal or rapid cycle with the
sanitize option. This will keep your dishwasher clean.
If white spots and odor are still present in your dishwasher, run the normal cycle with
the dishwasher empty and without detergent until it flushes. Then, interrupt the cycle
and put an 8 ounce cup of white vinegar into the lower basket. Close the dishwasher
and let the cycle finish.
Cleaning the Filters
1. Turn off the dishwasher.
2. Rotate the filter insert
counterclockwise to unfasten and
then detach the filter insert.
3. Remove the fine filter (flat, rectangular).
Do not remove the tub front seal (the long rubber seal encosing the
opening of the dishwasher).
Do not touch the heating element during or immediately after use.
