De-Liming

Minerals accumulate on the interior surfaces of the dishwasher. The deposits have a white haze and, in cases of heavy accumulation, may appear as a granular solid. The generic name for mineral deposits is lime.
  • The removal of lime deposits is called de-liming.
  • Your dishwasher should be de-limed regularly; how often will depend on the mineral content of your water.
  • Inspect your machine interior for lime deposits.
  • If de-liming is required, a de-liming agent should be used for best results in accordance with the chemical supplier’s instructions.

Danger

  • Death or serious injury may result when de-liming solution is mixed with sodium hypochlorite (chlorine bleach) sanitizing agent. Mixing may cause hazardous gases to form.
  • De-liming solution and other acids must never be mixed with chlorine, iodine, bromine, or fluorine.

Caution

  • Skin contact with de-liming solutions can cause severe irritation and possible chemical burns.
  • Always wear protective clothing and goggles when handling chemicals.

Attention

  • Contact your chemical supplier for specific safety procedures and instructions for the use of the de-liming solution supplied for the dishwasher.
  • De-liming solution or other chemicals are not supplied by the dishwasher manufacturer.
