2-10 minutes, press "Pause" and open the dishwasher.
3. Add amount 100ml vinegar or 50g anti-scaling agent and resume the washing program.
4. When the program ends, you may take a towel and wipe away the thin film on the heating plate gently. If
there is any vinegar smell or anti-scaling agent residue in the dishwasher, you can run a "Self-Clean"
washing program with the "Sanitize" option for removal without any tableware or detergent placed in
the dishwasher.
Notes
If the limescale accumulate excessively, add more vinegar or anti-scaling agent with over 200ml vinegar
and anti-scaling agent (between 75 and 150g). After cleaning, use a towel or brush to clean the heating
plate.
