Cleaning and care

Hygiene cycle
If you mainly use low temperature pro-
grammes, there is a risk of bacteria and
unpleasant odours building up in the
wash cabinet. To prevent this happen-
ing the dishwasher will automatically in-
crease the temperature in the final rinse
of the selected programme after several
programmes using low temperatures
have been run. This is to prevent the
build-up of residues and odours.
This programme results in higher energy
consumption.
You can activate or deactivate this func-
tion (see "Settings" chapter, "Hygiene
cycle" section).
If you switch off the Hygiene cycle, run
the Intensive 75 °C programme once
per month to clean the wash cabinet
and prevent odours from developing.
Cleaning the door and the door
seal
The door seal and the sides of the dish-
washer door cannot be reached and
cleaned by the spray arm jets. As a res-
ult, mould can develop here.
 Wipe the door seals regularly with a
damp cloth to remove food deposits.
 Wipe off any food or drink residues
that may have dripped onto the sides
of dishwasher door.
