Stainless Steel Inner Door and Tub
The stainless steel used to make the dishwasher tub and 
inner door provides the highest reliability available in a 
GE Appliances 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.

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, DS, D1, ES, FS,
