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 filters

(After each

wash)

Inspect the central filters (B) and (C) and remove any scraps of food with a brush, under running water.

Filters (B) and (C) are both removed by lifting up the outer one (B) (pulling the central funnel upwards); the smaller filter

(C) can be removed by pressing the two tongues (D).

Once cleaned, refit the filters by pressing them down until they click into place.

Cleaning the large filter

(every week)

Clean the large filter (A) on both sides under running water, using a brush.

To take it out, remove the spray arm by pressing the two tongues (E), turn the ring (F) anticlockwise and then slide the whole part out. Refit the filter following the above instructions in reverse order.

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.

3.Leave the door ajar to prevent the formation of any unpleasant smells.

4.Leave the inside of the machine clean.

Frost precautions

Avoid placing the machine in a location where the

temperature is below 0°C. If this is unavoidable, empty the machine, close the appliance door, disconnect the water

inlet pipe and empty it.

Moving the machine

If you have to move the machine (moving house etc....

):

1.Unplug it.

2.Turn the water tap off.

3.Remove the water inlet and discharge hoses.

4.Pull the machine out together with the hoses. Avoid over tilting the machine during transportation.

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.
