Outside
Occasionally wipe with a mild, 
nonabrasive detergent and water. Rinse and dry.
Inside
—The inside of the dishwasher is self-
cleaning with normal use. If needed, clean around 
the tub gasket area with a damp cloth.
Overfill Protector
—keeps dishwasher from 
overfilling and is located in the right front corner of 
the tub.
•  Clean occasionally 
with household cleaner 
containing vinegar to 
dissolve any buildup.
•  Overfill protector should 
move up and down freely 
about one inch. If it does 
not move, lift and clean 
underneath.
Care of Drain Air Gap
If a drain air gap was installed for your built-in 
dishwasher, check to make sure it is clean so 
the dishwasher will drain properly. A drain air gap 
is usually mounted on countertop and can be 
inspected by removing the cover. This is not part of 
your dishwasher and is not covered by warranty.
Note: Hard water may cause lime deposit buildup 
on the interior of the dishwasher. For cleaning 
instructions see “Removing Spots and Film” 
section.
Winterizing 
A dishwasher left in an unheated place should be 
protected from freezing. Have a qualified person 
do the following:
To Disconnect Service:
1.  Turn off electrical power to the dishwasher at 
the supply source by removing fuses or turning 
off the circuit breaker.
2.  Shut off water supply.
3.  Place a pan under the inlet valve. Disconnect 
water line from inlet valve and drain into pan.
4.  Disconnect drain line from pump and drain 
water into pan.
Note: See Installation Instructions for more 
details.
To Restore Service:
1.  Reconnect the water, drain, and electrical 
power supply.
2.  Turn on water and electrical power supply.
3.  Fill both detergent cups and run dishwasher 
through a Heavy Wash cycle.
4.  Check connections to make sure they do not 
leak.
Note: See Installation Instructions for more 
details.

rupture. Be sure all supply lines to and  
circulating lines within dishwasher are protected.
Failure to do so could result in property damage. 
Allow heating element to cool 
before cleaning the interior.

burns.
