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
• Do not use scrub pads or abrasive cleaners on
the exterior of the dishwasher.
• Most soil can be removed using a soft, damp
cloth or sponge. A mild soap can be used to
help release stubborn soil. Rinse and wipe dry
with a soft cloth after cleaning.
• Stainless steel surfaces can be polished using
a stainless steel cleaner. Follow the instructions
on the cleaner, and wipe in the direction of the
grain.
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.
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.)
• Using Machine Clean
− Run the Machine Clean cycle once a month
or after every 30 cycles to eliminate residual
soil, odor, white spots and other dirt inside the
appliance.
1. Remove all dishes from the appliance.
2. Add 3 tbsp. (40 g) of citric acid to the
detergent dispenser or follow the manufacturer's
instructions if using a dishwasher cleaning
agent. Do not use dishwasher detergent.
3. Press and hold Heavy for 3 seconds to select
the Machine Clean cycle.
4. Press Start.
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.
