Maintenance and cleaning

Internal cleaning

Ensure that the seals around the door, the detergent and rinse aid dispensers are cleaned regularly with a damp cloth.

We recommend the use of Finish Dishwasher Cleaner every 3 months or run a 65°C wash without dishes using detergent. Regular use of Finish Dishwasher Cleaner cleans inaccessible parts, eliminates unpleasant food odours and helps prevent the build-up of limescale.

Cleaning the central filter

(After each wash)

Scraps of food may accumulate in the drain filter (A) and should be removed by rinsing the filter under running water.

To remove the drain filter

- simply pull it out by the handle.

Once cleaned, refit the filter by pushing it back to its original position until it engages.

The dishwasher must not be used without filters. Incorrect repositioning and fitting of the filters will produce poor washing results.

Cleaning the filters is vital to ensure correct operation of the machine.

External cleaning

Clean the external surfaces of the machine and control panel with a damp soft cloth. If necessary use only neutral detergents. Never use abrasive products, scouring pads or solvent (acetone, trichloroethylene etc....).

Prolonged periods of non-operation

If you are not using the machine for any period of time you are advised to:

1. Unplug the appliance and then turn off the water.

2. Fill the rinse aid dispenser.
