This saves time and prevents future problems. Cleaning the dishwasher ■ Regularly wipe the front of the appliance with a damp cloth water and a small amount of liquid soap is adequate. ■ For black stainless steel and anti-fingerprint surfaces, use a soft, dry towel. For stubborn dirt, use warm water diluted with a non-abrasive, mild cleansing soap. Never use stainless steel polish. ■ For stainless steel appliances (excluding black stainless and anti-fingerprint), use a stainless steel polish to seal and protect the surface. ■ Clean the outer edges of the inside door panel regularly to remove debris that may collect from normal loading. If spots begin to appear on the stainless steel, make sure the rinse aid dispenser is full and functioning properly. ■ Clean the door seal regularly with a damp cloth to remove food particles that may collect from normal loading and cause odor. A soiled door seal may not seal properly. 34

Care

and

Mai

ntenance

A regular inspection and

maintenance of your machine will

help to prevent faults. This saves time

and prevents future problems.

Cleaning the dishwasher

■

Regularly wipe the front of the

appliance with a damp cloth -

water and a small amount of

liquid soap is adequate.

■

For black stainless steel and

anti-fingerprint surfaces, use a

soft, dry towel. For stubborn dirt,

use warm water diluted with a

non-abrasive, mild cleansing

soap. Never use stainless steel

polish.

■

For stainless steel appliances

(excluding black stainless and

anti-fingerprint), use a stainless

steel polish to seal and protect

the surface.

■

Clean the outer edges of the

inside door panel regularly to

remove debris that may collect

from normal loading. If spots

begin to appear on the stainless

steel, make sure the rinse aid

dispenser is full and functioning

properly.

■

Clean the door seal regularly with

a damp cloth to remove food

particles that may collect from

normal loading and cause odor. A

soiled door seal may not seal

properly.
