Maintenance and 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....).

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 programme 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.

8.Place the coarse/fine filter (A/B) in the microfilter C) and press together.

9.Put the filter combination in place and lock by turning the handle clockwise to the stop. During this process ensure that the flat filter does not protrude above the base of the washing compartment.

Under no circumstances may the dishwasher be used without filters.

Incorrect repositioning and fitting of the filters will produce poor washing results.

Cleaning the filters

The filters in the base of the washing compartment are to a large extent self-cleaning. Nevertheless the filters should be checked and cleaned from time to time. Dirty filters will degrade the washing result.

Open the door, remove the lower basket.

(A/B), a microfilter (C) and a flat filter (D).

Check that the WRD is not clogged with detergent residue. If

necessary rinse it under running water after having removed it

from the basket by twisting it

 

anticlockwise and pulling it

 

upwards.

 

Never use your dishwasher

 

without the WRD dispenser.

 

Since WRD also ensures

 

correct distribution of the

 

water to the upper spray

 

arm, running the

 

dishwasher without it will

 

impair the washing results.

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
