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.

Scraps of food may accumulate in the drain filter (A) and should be removed by rinsing the filter under running water.

To remove the drain filter:

- simply pull it out by the handle.

The dishwasher must not be used without filters.
