Cleaning the inside of the machine
The dishwasher tub is made of stainless steel and is
kept clean through normal use. However, if you have
hard water, limescale deposits may form in the
dishwasher. If this happens, run the Platters & Pans
program with high temperature and two tablespoons of
citric acid or commercially available dishwasher cleaner
in the detergent compartment (with no dishes in the
machine).
Cleaning the outside of the machine
•
Use only a slightly damp cloth (with a little cleaner if
necessary) when cleaning the outside of the
machine. Do not use solvents, as these can damage
the machine.
•
If the surface discolors or rust appears, clean the
surface immediately with a non-abrasive cloth.
WARNING!
Do not use a spray bottle or the like around the door
lock. This is to ensure that water does not penetrate
the door catch and come into contact with the electrical
components.
Winter storage
If the dishwasher is to be stored outdoors where the
temperature can fall below freezing, do as follows:
1. Look under the cabinet adjacent to the dishwasher
for a white, plastic type hose leading away from the
dishwasher. This hose is the dishwasher PEX fill
hose. Follow this hose away from the dishwasher to
where it connects to a shut-off valve. Turn this
shut-off valve completely off.
2. Open the dishwasher door, choose any program,
press Start/Stop, and close the dishwasher door.
You will hear the drain pump come on to begin the
cycle. Once you hear the drain pump stop, open the
door and cancel the cycle by holding the Start/Stop
button for three to five seconds.
3. Turn the dishwasher off with the main power switch.
4. Go back under the cabinet to the shut-off valve for
the dishwasher. Lay an old towel under the shut-off
valve and dishwasher fill line. The towel will soak up
any water that comes out of the hose or valve.
5. Disconnect the dishwasher fill line from the shut-off
valve using a 11/16" (17 mm) wrench or an
adjustable wrench.
6. When you no longer see water dripping from the fill
line or shut-off valve, remove the towel.
7. Remove the dishwasher power cord from the
receptacle.
