Cleaning

Cleaning

The dishwasher’s inner container is made of stainless steel and is kept clean through nor- mal use. However, if you have calciferous (hard) water, lime deposits can form in the dishwasher. In this case, run a normal wash program with two tablespoons of citric acid in the dishwasher detergent compartment.

Coarse filter

The coarse filter collects large food particles which cannot get past the drain pump. Lift out and empty the coarse filter as neces- sary. Don’t forget to replace it!

Fine filter

The residue collected on the fine filter is auto- matically rinsed off with each wash. The fine filter should still be cleaned once or twice a year.

1.Remove the fine filter by first turning the filter’s strainer counter-clockwise and then lifting the strainer and filter straight up.

2.Clean with a dishwashing brush. Ensure that the edges are properly sealed when replacing the fine filter.

Drain pump

The pump can be accessed from inside the machine.

1.Always unplug the dishwasher or turn the power to the unit off at the circuit breaker before cleaning the pump.

2.First remove the coarse filter by pressing together the two catches and lifting the filter upwards.

3.Then remove the filter’s strainer by turn- ing it counter-clockwise and remove the fine filter.

4.Finally remove the Pump access plug to the left in the bottom drain.

5.By inserting a finger into the hole you can rotate the pump blade and remove any blockages.

6.Replace the Pump access plug and fil- ters.

7.Insert the electrical plug back into the outlet.
