Do notclean the dishwasher by sprinkling water over it and avoid letting water come into contact with any of theelectrical parts.If your dishwasher has a stainless steel door panel, you can clean it with a stainless steel cleaner forHome Appliances or similar product using a clean, soft cloth.CLEANING THE INTERIORClean the interior of your dishwasher periodically to remove any dirt or food particles. Wipe the inside ofthe dishwasher and the inner part of the door with a wet dishcloth. We recommend fi lling the detergentdispenser with dishwasher soap, and then running the dishwasher empty periodically using the Self Cleanoption. To keep the cutlery pad clean, turn it over. This will keep your dishwasher clean.If white spots and odor are still present in your dishwasher, run the Self Clean option with the dishwasherempty and without detergent until it fl ushes.
