Caring for Your Dishwasher Exterior
Cleaning the Control Panel
Use only soft cloth that is lightly dampened with mild detergent. Clean the control panel only with a moist cloth and clear water.
Cleaning the Colored Doors
Use only light cloth that is lightly dampened with mild detergent.
Cleaning the Stainless Steel Doors
Use a soft cloth with a cleaner made for cleaning stainless steel. For the best results, apply the stainless steel cleaner to a soft cloth
and wipe the surface in the direction of the grain. DO NOT use abrasive cleaners or cleaners containing bleach.
Cleaning the Door Gasket
Regularly clean the door gasket with a damp cloth to remove food particles and other debris. Use a gentle household cleaner for
the outside and the door seals, and rinse thoroughly.
Caring for Your Dishwasher Interior
When cleaning the underside of the main fi lter, care must be taken
on the sharp outer edge to avoid the risk of cut type injuries.
Cleaning your dishwasher at regular intervals ensures longer
product life and reduces the risk of recurring problems. Always
disconnect the power to machine before cleaning.
Possible dishwasher damage: Abrasive cleaners, scouring pads,
abrasive cloths (paper towels) can damage the dishwasher door.

both the power and water supply to the dishwasher.
CAUTION
If your dishwasher is equipped with interior lighting, replacement
should only be done by an authorized service agent.
