Dishwasher Care And Cleaning
Filter screen
Personal Injury Hazard
Before cleaning interior or filter
screen, wait at least 20 minutes
after a cycle for the heating
element to cool down.
Failure to do so can result in burn
injuries.
Exterior
Regular use of a soft, damp cloth or
sponge and a mild detergent is all that is
necessary, in most cases, to keep the
outside of your dishwasher nice looking
and clean.
Interior
Hard water minerals may cause a white
film to build up on the inside surfaces,
especially just beneath the door area. To
clean interior:
1. Apply powdered dishwasher
detergent to a damp sponge to
make a paste.
or
2. Use liquid automatic dishwasher
detergent and clean with damp
sponge.
Wear rubber gloves. Do not use any type
of cleanser other than dishwasher
detergent because it may cause foaming
or sudsing.
The filter system requires periodic
cleaning as needed.
To clean screen:
1. Unload and slide the bottom rack
forward. (Remove bottom rack if
necessary to reach filter screen.)
2. Remove collected particles from the
screen with your fingers or paper
towel.
3. Return the bottom rack to original
position.
