CARE AND CLEANING

Switch off the power supply or disconnect the product
before any maintenance or cleaning operation.
Cleaning the machine at regular intervals prolongs the
machine's service life.
Oil and lime may accumulate in the machines washing
section. To clean the machine:
Fill the detergent compartment with detergent without
loading any dishes into the machine. Select a program
that runs at high temperature and start the machine.
Alternatively, a dishwasher descaler which is available
from most supermarkets can be used.
Cleaning the seals in the machine door
To clean any accumulated residues in the door seals,
wipe the seals regularly by using a dampened cloth.
Cleaning the machine
Clean the filters and spray arms at least once a week.
Unplug your machine and turn off its tap before
starting to clean. Do not use hard materials when
cleaning your machine. Wipe with a fine cleaning
material and a dampened cloth.
Filters
Check if any food wastes have remained on the
coarse and fine filters. If any food waste is found, remove
the filters and clean them thoroughly with water under
the tap.

Spray arms
Check whether or not the holes for the upper and lower
spray arms are clogged. If there is any clogging, remove
the spray arms and clean them under water.
You can remove the lower spray arm by pulling it
upwards, while the upper spray arm can be removed by
turning the nut to the left.
Be sure that the nut is perfectly tightened when refitting
the upper spray arm.
Hose filter
The inlet hose filter reduces contamination (sand, clay,
rust etc.) that might be occasionally carried in through
the mains water supply or the indoor plumbing, and
avoids damage to the dishwasher components. Check
the filter and the hose from time to time and clean them
if necessary. To clean the filter, first turn off your tap and
then remove the hose.
After removing the filter from the hose, clean it under the
tap. Insert the cleaned filter back into its place
inside the hose. Refit the hose, turn on the tap and
check for leaks.
