GE GSD3360K55SS: Burnt BBQ Sauce Residue on the Dishwasher Heating Element

If BBQ sauce has burned onto the heating element of a GE GSD3360K55SS dishwasher, stop using the dishwasher, disconnect power from a safe point, and wait until the element and tub are completely cool. GE says food residue on a heating element can be scraped with a non-metallic object such as a wooden spoon or wiped with a cloth dampened with dish soap and water.
