Cleaning The Control Panel; Protect Against Freezing - GE Profile GLD3866T05SS Manuel Du Propriétaire

Caring for the dishwasher.
Cleaning the Exterior door panel
Before cleaning the front panel, make
sure you know what type of panel you have. Refer to
the last two letters of your model number. You can
locate your model number on the left-hand tub wall
just inside the door. If your model number ends with
BB, CC, WW, SA or BG, then you have a painted door
panel. If your model number ends with SS, then you
have a Stainless Steel Door panel. If your model
number ends with CS, then you have a CleanSteel
panel.
Follow the instructions below for cleaning the door
panel for your specific model.

Use a clean, soft, lightly dampened cloth, then dry
thoroughly. You may also use a good appliance wax
or polish.

protect Against Freezing

If your dishwasher is left in an unheated place during
the winter, ask a service technician to:
Cut off electrical power to the dishwasher.
1
Remove fuses or trip circuit breaker.
Turn off the water supply and disconnect the
2
water inlet line from the water valve.
does your dishwasher Have an Air Gap?
An air gap protects your dishwasher against water
backing up into it if a drain clogs. The air gap is not
a part of the dishwasher. It is not covered by your
warranty. Not all plumbing codes require air gaps,
so you may not have one.
