Asko D3432 Overfill Protection, Energy Saving Tips, Cleaning the Drain Pump

Page 10

CLEANING THE DRAIN PUMP

On occasion something may get through the filters and into the drain pump. The drain pumps on ASKO dishwashers are designed to automatically reverse if anything should get caught in the propellers, thus ejecting the item back into the sump area or down the drain. Should you need to remove an obstacle from the drain, first turn the power off then remove the filters (as explained on page 9). Next, lift out the adaptor piece on the left side of the sump area. (You might want to remove any standing water first.) You can then look into the sump area for the item causing the obstruction. You may need to use your finger to move the pump blade and loosen the object. Should you find something, simply scoop it out then replace the adaptor piece and the filters.

WARNING!

Never run the dishwasher without the filters in place.

To reach an item caught in the drain pump, remove the filters then the small black insert in the sump area.

WARNING!

Be sure to replace the adaptor piece before you put the filters back in.

OVERFILL PROTECTION

Your ASKO dishwasher has an overfill protection device that automatically shuts off the inlet valve and circulation pump and starts the drain pump if the water level in the unit should rise above the normal level. If this happens, turn the water off at the main supply and call for service.

ENERGY SAVING TIPS

♦If you plan to wash the dishes right away, there’s no need to pre-rinse. Simply scrape off large particles and load the dishes.

♦Wash only full loads.

♦Use the Pots & Pans and Heavy wash programs only for heavily soiled dishes.

If there is water in the base pan due to an overfill or small leak, the water must be removed before the dishwasher will start.

When an overfill is detected, the Heavy wash light will flash. (See Fault Messages on page 8.)

♦Don’t use the high temperature for lightly soiled dishes.

♦Avoid using the heated dry option. (You can speed up the drying process by opening the door slightly to release the moist air.)
