cleaning and maintaining your

dishwasher
Keeping your dishwasher clean improves its performance, reduces unnecessary
repairs, and lengthens its 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 may cause stains. Do not clean the dishwasher by
sprinkling water over it and avoid water coming into contact with any of the electrical parts.
If your dishwasher has a stainless steel door panel, it can be cleaned with a stainless steel cleaner for
Home Appliances or 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 running the dishwasher
periodically (using a Quick or Delicate cycle with the sanitize with extra dry option) with an empty load after
inserting dishwasher detergent. This will keep your dishwasher clean.
If white spots and odor still present in your dishwasher, run the Quick cycle without loading dishes until it
flushes and interrupt the cycle and put 8 oz.cup of white vinegar solution in the lower basket and then finish
the cycle. Do not use detergent.
Do not remove the Seal tub front (the long rubber seal enclosing the opening of the dishwasher).
CAUTION

clEanIng thE nozzlES

If the cleaning performance of your dishwasher is continually low or the nozzles seem clogged, you can
clean each of the nozzles. When removing the nozzles, take care as they may break.
