Maintaining the Dishwasher ...............................
Dishwasher Interior
Cleaning
The inside design is normally sell'cleaning. However,
you may want to periodically check the bottom of the
dishwasher tub to see if any large particles have not gone
through the strainer portion of the module.
You may also want to wipe the edge of the inner door
liner to remove any food soil splashes which occun'ed
during loading.
The color from some tomato-based food soils has been
known to occasionally adhere to today's dishwasher
tubs, causing discoloration. To help prevent this, when
washing a load of dishes soiled with tomato sauce:
Scrape excess tomato-based food soils off of dishes,
prior to loading. Do not prewash the dishes, however.
Set the control knob at the Pots & Pans setting.
Do not use the water heating options if the incoming
water temperature is already 120-140 ° F (49-60 ° C).
Odors
Any odor inside the dishwasher is likely related to a
chemical (chlorine) odor fi'om the detergent or a food
odor from soiled items sitting in the dishwasher. Try
using a different detergent, especially a lemon- scented
one, or purchase a fresh package and see if the odor
decreases.
It is recommended that the Rinse & Hold feature be used
if dishes are to be held for a couple of days before
washing. This will remove most food soils that may
develop an odor.
For a strong odor, try one of the following:
1. Place baking soda in both sides of the detergent cup.
Select Light and let the water circulate for about 10
minutes, Stop the dishwasher by unlatching the door
and let stand overnight. Restart the dishwasher by
latching the door and let it complete the cycle.
2. Use a commercial dishwasher cleaning product such
as Jet-Dry Dishwasher Cleaner*, according to
package directions.
Storage/Moving
Fill both detergent cups with a fresh-scented dishwasher
detergent or baking soda and select a Nodal cycle.
Allow the dishwasher to complete the cycle. Then turn
the water supply off and drain the dishwasher, lb drain,
start any cycle as all cycles begin with a drain. Listen
for the drain to complete, then open the door to interrupt
the cycle prior to the fill. Operate the drain twice to
ensure most of the water is removed. Last, disconnect
the electrical supply and prop open the door,
