Care and Maintenance
Maintenance Tasks
Certain areas of your dishwasher require
occasional maintenance. The maintenance tasks
are easy to do and will ensure continued superior
performance from your dishwasher. These tasks
are:
• Winterizing Your Dishwasher
• Wiping up Spills and Splash-out
• Clean the Stainless Steel Inner Door and Tub
• Check/Clean the Spray Arm Nozzles
• Check/Clean the Filter System
• Clean the Exterior Door Panel
• Clean the Door Gasket
Winterizing Your Dishwasher
If your dishwasher will be unused for an extended
period of time in a location that experiences
freezing temperatures (e.g., in a holiday home or
through a vacation period), have your dishwasher
winterized by an authorized service center.
To avoid dishwasher damage, do not
allow water to remain in your dishwasher
systems through extended periods of
freezing temperatures. Freezing
temperatures can damage your
dishwasher.
Wiping Up Spills and Splash-out
Water may occasionally splash out of your
dishwasher, especially if you interrupt a cycle or
open the dishwasher door during a cycle. To
avoid floor damage and possible mold growth, do
not allow wet areas to remain around or under the
dishwasher.

Check/Clean the Stainless Steel
Inner Door and Tub
Clean the outer edges of the inside door panel
regularly to remove debris that might collect there
from normal loading.
If spots begin to appear on the stainless steel tub
or inner door, make sure the rinse agent reservoir
is full.
Check/Clean the Spray Arm
Nozzles
Occasionally check the spray arms to ensure that
the spray arm nozzles (holes) are unobstructed.
You must remove the spray arms to check them
for obstruction.
To remove the top spray arm:
1. Remove the empty top rack from the
dishwasher.
2. Turn the
A
rack
upside-
down. The
top spray
arm is held
in position
by a locking
nut as

shown in
Figure 26A.
Turn the
locking nut
counter-
clockwise
1/8 turn and
remove it, as shown in Figure 26B to
release the spray arm.
3. Remove the spray arm as shown in Figure
27.
4. Look for
obstruction
in the
spray
nozzles.
5. If the spray
nozzles
need
cleaning,
flush them under running water.
