DISHWASHER CARE
Interior Cleaning
Many detergents may leave white spots or a white residue on
dishware and on the interior of the dishwasher. Over time this
residue can become unsightly and could affect dishwasher
performance. Use of a dishwasher cleaning product such as
affresh

Dishwasher Cleaner can help to remove the residue.
Monthly use of affresh

help maintain the dishwasher. Follow package directions.
NOTE: We recommend the use of high-quality, premeasured
detergent tablets or packs and the use of rinse aid for dishwasher
cleaning and daily care.

To Reduce Risk of Property Damage During Vacation or
Extended Time Without Use
■ When you will not be using the dishwasher during the summer
months, turn off the water and power supply to the dishwasher.
■ Make sure the water supply lines are protected against freezing
conditions. Ice formations in the supply lines can increase
water pressure and cause damage to your dishwasher or
home.
■ Damage from freezing is not covered by the warranty.
■ When storing your dishwasher in the winter, avoid water
damage by having your dishwasher winterized by authorized
service personnel.
Exterior Cleaning
Clean the exterior of dishwasher with a soft, damp cloth and mild
detergent. Avoid using abrasive cleaning products on the exterior
of the dishwasher. Abrasive cleaning products can damage the
