dishwasher.
2 Do not add detergent.
3 Choose the longest cycle.
4 Start the dishwasher and allow it to run for
about 18 to 22 minutes, then it will be in the
main wash.
5 Open the door to pour 2 cups of white
vinegar into the bottom of the dishwasher.
6 Close the door and let the dishwasher
complete the cycle. If the vinegar does
not work: Repeat as above, except use 1/4
cup (60 ml)of citric acid crystals instead of
vinegar.

select a shortest cycle to wash the glasswa-
re and to get them clean
Using a solution of 1/2 cup of bleach and 3
cups of warm water to remove the stains by
hand.

after a cycle to let the heating elements cool
down before cleaning interior; otherwise,
burns will happen.

ber gloves. Never use any other cleaner
than dishwasher detergent for the risk of
foaming or suds.
