DISHWASHER CARE

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
is recommended.
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 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 "Troubleshooting"
section.
NOTE: Run a normal cycle with dishwasher detergent after cleaning the interior.
