How To Clean Your Dishwasher
Though this article primarily explains how to clean the inside of your dishwasher, your stainless steel dishwasher may still need to be cleaned on the outside. Be sure to visit our page on how to clean stainless steel surfaces, appliances, and more for extra info.
To keep your dishwasher in its best working condition, you'll need to give it a wash of its own. You'll know it's time when your dishes come out covered in soap scum and you can see hard water stains on the walls and door, and gunk build up on the racks. Calcium, Lime & Rust Remover cleans the entire appliance — even breaking up powder detergent clogs — making cleaning your dishwasher a cinch.
How to Clean Your Dishwasher using Calcium, Lime & Rust Remover
- Empty the dishwasher completely (no dishes, no detergents; leave the racks)
- Pour a 1/2 cup of Calcium, Lime & Rust Remover directly into the bottom of your empty dishwasher
- Run a normal cycle
- Rinse the empty dishwasher out by running another normal cycle
Always read label instructions before use.
