Care & Cleaning

Care of Drain Air Gap

If a drain air gap was installed for your built-in
dishwasher, check to make sure it is clean so the
dishwasher will drain properly. A drain air gap is
usually mounted on the sink at the countertop and
can be inspected by removing the cover. This is not
part of your dishwasher and is not covered by
warranty.

Freezing temperatures may cause water lines
to rupture. Be sure all supply lines to and
circulating lines within dishwasher are
protected. Failure to do so could result in
property damage.

WINTERIZING

A dishwasher left in an unheated place should be
protected from freezing. Have a qualified person do
the following:

To Disconnect Service:

1 Turn off electrical power to the dishwasher at

the supply source by removing fuses or
tripping circuit breaker.

2 Shut off water supply.

3 Place a pan under the inlet valve. Disconnect

water line from inlet valve and drain into pan.

4 Disconnect drain line and drain water into

pan.

To Restore Service:

1 Reconnect the water, drain, and electrical

power supply.

2 Turn on water and electrical power supply.

3 Fill both detergent cups and run dishwasher

through a HEAVY WASH cycle.

See Installation Instructions for more details.
