#4 How do I clean my dishwasher’s exterior?
For non-stainless steel exteriors, wipe the front of the appliance with a damp cloth. DO NOT use abrasive detergents or sponges with a rough surface. For normal stainless steel surfaces, use mild soapy water or a stainless steel cleaner with a soft cloth. Wipe in the direction of the stainless steel grain when washing and drying. Dry thoroughly and use a stainless steel conditioner to condition the surface. Bosch Stainless Steel Cleaning Powder and Conditioner can be purchased in the Bosch Accessories Store. WARNING: Some stainless steel cleaners are known to have negative effects on materials other than stainless steel. DO NOT use the Bosch Stainless Steel Cleaning Powder or Conditioner on control labels, markings, or black stainless steel. For black stainless steel surfaces, DO NOT use any stainless steel cleaners or conditioners including the Bosch Stainless Steel Cleaning Powder and Conditioner. Use of cleaners and conditioners over time may discolor the black stainless steel. Simply wipe down the surface with mild soapy water and a soft cloth and dry. Make sure to always wipe in the direction of the grain.
