Care And Cleaning - Amana ADW662EAB Manual Del Propietário

General Dishwasher Care:
The dishwasher interior is normally self-cleaning. Periodically
check the bottom of the dishwasher tub to see if any large
particles have not gone through the strainer portion of the
module.
Wipe the edge of the inner door liner to remove any food soil splashes which
occurred during loading.
The color from some tomato-based food soils has been known to occasionally
adhere to today's dishwasher tubs, causing a temporary 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.
• Run the Pots and Pans cycle.
The front of the dishwasher can be cleaned with a soft damp cloth and liquid
spray cleaner. Do not use abrasive powders or cleaning pads.
For a strong odor try placing baking soda in both sides of
the detergent cup. Select Light Wash and allow the water to
circulate for about 10 minutes. Interrupt the cycle by
unlatching the door and let it stand overnight. Restart the
dishwasher by latching the door and allow it to complete the
cycle. You can also try a citric acid containing dishwasher cleaning product
such as Glisten (Part No. R0131566) or a commercially available dishwasher
cleaning product.

Care and Cleaning

!
WARNING
To avoid risk of burns, allow
heating element to cool before
cleaning the interior.
Storage
Fill both detergent cups
with a fresh-scented
dishwasher detergent
or baking soda and select the Normal
Wash cycle. Allow the dishwasher to
complete the cycle. Then turn the
water supply off and drain the
dishwasher. To drain:
1. Press the Drain/Off pad once.
2. Operate the drain twice to ensure
most of the water is removed.
3. Last, disconnect the electrical
supply and prop open the door.
Citric Acid
To prevent damage to the
finish of your stainless
steel appliance, do not
allow mustard, tomato juice, marinara
sauce, or other citrus based sauces or
products to remain on stainless steel
surface. Citric acid permanently
discolors stainless steel.
