Care And Cleaning - Monogram ZDT925SPNSS Owner's Manual

CARE AND CLEANING

EXTERIOR DOOR PANEL
Before cleaning the front panel, make sure you know what
type of panel you have. Refer to the last two letters of
your model number. You can locate your model number
on the left-hand tub wall just inside the door. If your model
number ends with SS, then you have a Stainless Steel
door panel. If your model number ends with II, then you
have an Integrated door panel.
Follow the instructions below for cleaning the door panel
for your specific model.
Stainless Steel Door Panel (model numbers ending in SS)
For cleaning rust and tarnish, cleaners with oxalic acid
such as Bar Keepers Friend Soft Cleanser™ will remove
rust, tarnish and small blemishes. Use only a liquid
cleanser free of grit and rub in the direction of the brush
lines with a damp soft sponge. Do not use appliance wax
or polish on the stainless steel.
CONTROL PANEL
To clean the control panel, use a lightly dampened cloth. Then
dry thoroughly.
INTERIOR
To clean and de-odorize your dishwasher, use citric acid,
or Cascade Platinum™
®
Dishwasher Cleaner, a detergent additive. They will
break up mineral deposits, and remove hard water film
and stains. You can order citric acid # WD35X151 through
Monogram by calling 800-444-1845. In Canada, call 800-
661-1616. You can purchase dishwasher cleaners at your
local grocery store.
STAINLESS STEEL INNER DOOR AND TUB
The stainless steel used to make the dishwasher tub and
inner door provides the highest reliability available in a
Monogram dishwasher.
DOES YOUR DISHWASHER HAVE AN AIR GAP?
An air gap protects your dishwasher against water backing up
into it if a drain clogs. The air gap is not a part of the dishwasher.
It is not covered by your warranty. Not all plumbing codes
require air gaps, so you may not have one.

Dishwasher Cleaner or Finish
Check the air gap
any time your
dishwasher isn't
draining well.
For other blemishes and marks, use Stainless Steel
Magic or a similar product using a clean soft cloth. Do not
use appliance wax, polish, bleach or products containing
chlorine on Stainless Steel. You can order Stainless Steel
Magic # WX10X29 through Monogram Preferred by
calling 800-444-1845. In Canada, call 800-661-1616.
Integrated Door Panel (model numbers ending in II)
This is a custom installed door panel, and you will need to
refer to the cabinet manufacturers recommendations for
proper cleaning.
®
If the dishwasher tub or inner door should be scratched
or dented during normal use, they will not rust or corrode.
These surface blemishes will not affect their function or
durability.
The air gap is easy to clean.
1
Turn off the dishwasher and lift off the air gap cover.
Remove the plastic cap under the cover and clean with a
2
toothpick.
Replace the cap and cover when the air gap is clean.
