Caring for the dishwasher
GEAppliances.com
To clean the control panel, use a lightly dampened cloth, then dry thoroughly. To clean the exterior, use a good appliance
polish. Never use sharp objects, scouring pads or harsh cleaners on any part of the dishwasher.
If your dishwasher is left in an unheated place
during the winter, ask a service technician to:
1
Cut off electrical power to the dishwasher.
Remove fuses or trip circuit breaker.
2
Turn off the water supply and disconnect the
water inlet line from the water valve.
3
Drain water from the inlet line and water
valve. (Use a pan to catch the water.)
4
Reconnect the water inlet line to the
water valve.
5
Remove the plastic sump cover in the tub
bottom and use a sponge to soak up water
in the rubber boot.
An air gap protects your dishwasher against
water backing up into it if a drain clogs.
The air gap is not a part of the dishwasher.
It is not covered by your warranty. Not all
plumbing codes require air gaps, so you may not
have one.
The air gap is easy to clean.
1
Turn off the dishwasher and lift off the
chrome cover.
2
Unscrew the plastic cap and clean with
a toothpick.
Check the air gap any time your
dishwasher isn’t draining well.

Protect Against Freezing
For cleaning rust and tarnish, cleaners with
oxalic acid such as Bar Keepers Friend Soft
Cleanser™ will remove rust, tarnish and small
blemishes. Use only a liquid cleanser free
of grit and rub in the direction of the brush
lines with a damp soft sponge. Do not use
appliance wax or polish on the stainless steel.
For other blemishes and marks, use Stainless
Steel Magic or a similar product using a clean
soft cloth. Do not use appliance wax, polish,
bleach or products containing chlorine on
Stainless Steel. You can order Stainless Steel
Magic # WX10X29 through
