Care and maintenance

Shutting off the water and electricity

supplies

Turn off the water tap after every wash cycle to avoid

 

leaks.

Always unplug the appliance when cleaning it and

 

when performing maintenance work.

Cleaning the dishwasher

The external surfaces of the machine and the control

 

panel may be cleaned using a non-abrasive cloth

 

which has been dampened with water. Do not use

 

solvents or abrasive products.

Any marks on the inside of the appliance may be

 

removed using a cloth dampened with water and a

 

little vinegar.

Preventing unpleasant odours

Always keep the door of the appliance ajar in order to

 

avoid moisture from forming and being trapped inside

 

the machine.

Clean the seals around the door and detergent

 

dispensers regularly using a damp sponge. This will

 

avoid food becoming trapped in the seals, which is

 

the main cause behind the formation of unpleasant

 

odours.

Clean the water inlet filter at the tap outlet regularly.

- Turn off the water tap.

-Unscrew the end of the water inlet hose, remove the filter and clean it carefully under running water.

-Replace the filter and screw the water hose back into position.

Cleaning the filters

The filter assembly consists of three filters which remove food residues from the washing water and then recirculate the water. They should be cleaned if you wish to achieve the best results in every wash.

Clean the filters regularly.

The dishwasher should not be used without filters, or if the filter is loose.

After several washes, check the filter assembly and if necessary clean it thoroughly under running water, using a non-metallic brush and following the instructions below:

1. Turn the cylindrical filter C in an anti-clockwise direction and pull it out (fig. 1).

2. Remove the cup filter B by exerting a slight pressure on the side flaps (fig. 2).

3. Slide out the stainless steel plate filter A (fig. 3).

4. Inspect the trap and remove any food residue. NEVER REMOVE the wash cycle pump (black detail) (fig. 4).

Cleaning the sprayer arms

Food residue may become encrusted onto the sprayer

arms and block the holes used to spray the water. It is

therefore recommended that the arms are checked from

time to time and cleaned with a small non-metallic

brush.

The two sprayer arms may both be removed.

To remove the upper sprayer

arm, rotate the locking ring in

an anti-clockwise direction.

The upper sprayer arm should

be replaced with the holes

facing upwards.

The lower sprayer arm can be removed by pressing on the side tabs and pulling it

Cleaning the water inlet filter* If the water hoses are new or have not been used for an extended period of time, let the water run to make sure it is clear and free of impurities before performing the necessary connections. If this precaution is not taken, the water inlet could become blocked and damage the dishwasher.

After cleaning the filters, replace the filter assembly and fix it in position correctly; this is essential for maintaining the efficient operation of the dishwasher.

Leaving the machine unused for extended periods

Disconnect the appliance from the electricity supply and shut off the water tap.

Leave the door of the appliance ajar.

When you return, run a wash cycle when the dishwasher is empty.

* Only available in selected models.
