Care and Cleaning
Dishwasher
Protect
Against
Freezing
If your dishwasher is left in an unheated place
during the winter, ask a service technician to:
1.
Cut off electrical power to the dishwasher.
Remove fuses or trip circuit breaker.
2.
Turn off the water supply and disconnect the
water inlet line from the water valve.
3.
Drain water from the water inlet line and
water valve. (Use a pan to catch the water.)
4.
Reconnect the water inlet line to 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.
The air gap is easy to clean.
1.
Turn off the dishwasher and lift off the
chrome cover.
2.
Remove the plastic cap and clean with
a toothpick.
Stainless
Steel
Interior—
Tub and
Inner Door
The stainless steel used to make the dishwasher
tub and inner door provides the highest
reliability available in a Monogram dishwasher.
If the dishwasher tub or inner door should be
scratched or dented during normal use,
they will not rust or corrode. These surface
blemishes will not affect their function
or durability.
Check the air gap any time your dishwasher
isn’t draining well.
