How to keep your dishwasher in shape
After Every Wash
After every wash, turn off the water su pply the appliance and leave the door slightly ajar s o that moisture
and odors are not trapped inside.
Remove the plug
Before cleaning or performing maintenance, always remove the plug from the socket. Do not run risks.
No solvents or Abrasive Cleaning Products
To clean the exter ior a nd r ubber par ts of t he d ishw ash er, do no t use solv ent s o r abra siv e cle anin g
products. Rather, use only a cloth and warm soapy water.
To remove spots or stains from the surface of the interior, use a cloth dampened with water and a little
while vinegar, or cleaning product made specifically for dishwashers.
Moving the Appliance
If the appliance must be m ov ed, t r y t o k eep i t in a v er t ic al po s it ion. I f a bsolutely necessary, it can b e
positioned on its back.
Seals
One of the factors that cause odors to form in the dishwasher is food that remains trapped in the seals.
Periodic cleaning with a damp sponge will prevent this from occurring.
The door should not be left in the open position since this could present a tripping hazard.
When You Go on Holiday
When you go on holiday, it is recommended that you run a wash cycle with the dishwasher empty and
then remove the plug from the s ock et, tur n off the wate r s upply and l eave t he doo r of t he applia nce
slightly ajar. This will help the seals last longer and prevent odors from forming within the appliance.
