Maintenance and Cleaning (Continued)
INTERNAL CARE CONTINUED
Cleaning the interior cabinet
Over time, grime can accumulate on the interior walls of the appliance. A quick wipe down will do wonders for
removing any dishwasher odour which can develop over time.
Step 1
Remove both the upper and lower basket racks and run them under hot water within the kitchen sink.
Step 2
Scrub the inside of the dishwasher with a rag or sponge dampened with hot water. If there is stuck on food
residue, use some white vinegar to help remove it. Wipe down the rubber door gaskets (attached to the dishwasher
cabinet) as these can collect food residue, mould and mildew.
Removing dishwasher odour
If your dishwasher has developed an odour and you’ve completed all of the internal cleaning steps listed above, you may
like to try a cleaning cycle using some white vinegar and baking soda. Follow the steps below.
Step 1
Empty the appliance of all dishes.
Step 2
Place one cup of white vinegar in a stable bowl in the upper basket rack of your dishwasher.
Step 3
Set your dishwasher to the Intensive program and run for a full cycle. This is the hottest program for your
dishwasher and the acids within the vinegar will help to break down any deposits on the interior of your dishwasher.
Step 4
Remove the bowl from the dishwasher once your cycle is complete. Sprinkle a cup of baking soda on the floor of
the dishwasher.
Step 5
Set your dishwasher to the 90 Min program and run another empty cycle. This will dissolve all the baking soda
and eliminate any remaining odour within your dishwasher.
FROST PROTECTION
Please take frost protection measures with your dishwasher in winter, particularly when you reside in cold regions.
After each washing cycle, follow these steps:
•
Turn off the power to your dishwasher at the power point.
•
Turn off the water supply to your dishwasher, at the supply tap and disconnect the water inlet pipe from the water
valve on the rear of your dishwasher.
•
Drain the water from the inlet pipe and water valve. Use a bucket to capture the water.
•
Reconnect the water inlet pipe to the water valve at the rear of your dishwasher.
•
Remove the filter assembly from the bottom of your dishwasher and use a sponge to soak up any residual water
sitting in the filter housing.
Caution!
Failure to follow these steps in regions prone to freezing can result in damage to your dishwasher. The
manufacturer’s warranty will not apply if these steps haven’t been followed.
