Important!
Disconnect the dishwasher from the power supply (unplug or switch off at the circuit breaker) and allow all
its parts to cool before any cleaning or maintenance.
Holiday time
If the dishwasher is not going to be used for some time, we recommend you leave it clean and
empty. Leave the drawer(s) ajar to allow air to circulate. Turn off both the power and water
supply to the dishwasher.
When using your dishwasher for the first time after a long period away, we recommend
pouring 3 cups of water into the drawer before loading and starting a wash. This is to lubricate
components that may have dried out during non-use.
Cleaning the surfaces
Wipe with a clean damp cloth. Take care not to wet the control panel.

Important!
We do not recommend the use of the following cleaning aids on your dishwasher as they may damage the
surfaces:
Plastic or stainless steel scouring pads
Acid or alkaline cleaners
Stainless steel cleaners or polishes
Cleaning the drain filter, spray arm and filter plate
We recommend that the drain filter is cleaned whenever there is evidence of food particles.
The spray arm may need cleaning about once a month in normal use or more often should the
need arise.
The filter plate should not normally need cleaning. Food particles remaining on its surface can
be wiped off with a clean, damp cloth.
