MAINTENANCE To maintain performance and prevent trouble, it is important to check the outside and inside of the dishwasher, including filters and spray arms, at regular intervals. WARNING ••When cleaning the outside and inside of the dishwasher, do not use benzene or thinner. Otherwise, it may cause fire or explosion. ••To prevent injury during care and maintenance or cleaning, wear gloves and/or protective clothing. NOTE ••If you have not used the dishwasher for a long time, refresh the inside by running the Machine Clean cycle without detergent. When the cycle is finished, clean the inside and outside of the dishwasher according to the Maintenance instructions. Cleaning the Exterior ••In most cases, the exterior of the dishwasher can be cleaned with a soft damp cloth or sponge, then dried with a soft cloth. If the dishwasher has a stainless steel exterior, use a stainless steel cleaner. CAUTION ••If cooking oil is spilled on the exterior of the product, wipe it off immediately. Do not clean the exterior of the product with cleaners which contain alcohol, thinners, bleach, benzene, flammable liquids, or abrasives. These substances may discolor or damage the appliance. MAINTENANCE 45 Cleaning the Interior ••Clean the interior of the dishwasher periodically with a soft, damp cloth or sponge to remove food and dirt particles. ••To remove white spots and odor from inside the dishwasher, run an empty cycle, without detergent, with one cup of white vinegar in a dishwasher safe glass or bowl placed on the upper rack. (Vinegar is an acid and with constant use it could damage the appliance.) Seasonal Maintenance and Storage ••If you will be absent for an extended period of time during warmer months, close the water valve and disconnect the power supply line, or turn off the circuit breaker. Clean the filter, tub and dispenser to prevent odor. ••If you will be absent for an extended period of time during colder months and there is a possibility of freezing temperatures, winterize the water supply lines and the dishwasher itself. Winterization must be performed by qualified service personnel. ENGLISH
