use abrasive products, scouring pads or sol- vent (acetone, trichloroethylene etc....).

Internal cleaning

Ensure that the seals around the door, the de- tergent and rinse aid dispensers are cleaned regularly with a damp cloth.

We recommend every 3 months to run the wash programme for heavy soiled dishes using de- tergent but without dishes.

Prolonged periods of non- operation

If you are not using the machine for any pro- longed period of time you are advised to:

1.Unplug the appliance and then turn off the water.

2.Leave the door ajar to prevent the forma- tion of any unpleasant smells.

3.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 ap- pliance 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 ho- ses.

4.Pull the machine out together with the ho- ses.

Avoid over tilting the machine during transpor- tation.
