Whirlpool DU850SWP 用户手册

In most cases, regular use of a soft, damp cloth or sponge and a 
mild detergent is all that is necessary to keep the outside of your 
dishwasher looking nice and clean. If your dishwasher has a 
stainless steel exterior, a stainless steel cleaner is recommended.

Hard water minerals can cause a white film to build up on the 
inside surfaces, especially just beneath the door area.

Do not clean the dishwasher interior until it has cooled. Wear 
rubber gloves. Do not use any type of cleanser other than 
dishwasher detergent because it may cause foaming or sudsing.

Make a paste with powdered dishwasher detergent on a damp 
sponge and clean.

Use liquid automatic dishwasher detergent and clean with a 
damp sponge.

See the vinegar rinse procedure in “Spotting and filming on 
dishes” in “Troubleshooting.”

NOTE: Run a normal cycle with detergent after cleaning the 
interior.

The filter system requires periodic cleaning as needed. 

1. Unload the bottom rack. Slide the rack forward or remove the 

rack to reach the filter screen.

2. Remove collected particles from the screen with your fingers 

or a paper towel.

3. Replace the bottom rack with the rack bumpers facing the 

door.

NOTE: Do not clean the dishwasher interior until it has cooled.
