Maintenance
Cleaning
Keep the dishwasher clean to improve performance, reduce unnecessary repairs, and
lengthen its lifecycle.
Exterior
Clean spills on the surface of the dishwasher as they occur. Use a soft, damp cloth on the
control panel to gently wipe away spills and dust.
CAUTION
• Do not use benzene, wax, thinner, chlorine bleach, alcohol, or other chemical
substances. These materials may discolour the surface of the dishwasher and cause
stains.
• The dishwasher has electric parts inside. Do not sprinkle water directly onto the
dishwasher. Protect electrical components from coming in contact with water.
• For a stainless-steel door panel, clean using a stainless steel cleaner for home
appliances and a clean, soft cloth.
Interior
Clean the interior of the dishwasher on a regular basis to remove any dirt or food
particles. Wipe inside the dishwasher and inside the door with a wet dishcloth. To
maintain optimum cleanliness, we recommend running the Self Clean cycle periodically
with the dishwasher empty.
To keep the cutlery pad clean, turn it over after each use. To remove white spots and
odors from the cutlery pad, run the Self Clean cycle with the dishwasher empty and no
detergent until the cutlery pad flushes. Then, stop the cycle and put an 8-ounce cup of
white vinegar into the lower basket. Close the door, and then resume the cycle.
CAUTION
Do not remove the front seal (the long rubber seal enclosing the opening of the
dishwasher). The seal keeps the inner side of the dishwasher sealed.

Use a damp cloth to remove lime scale
or grease deposits inside the dishwasher.
Alternatively, apply some detergent, and
then run an empty cycle using the highest
rinse temperature.
CAUTION
To avoid damaging the motor, use caution
when manually moving the water reflector.
