8. CLEANING AND
MAINTENANCE
Cleaning your dishwasher is important to
maintain the machine’s service life
Make sure that the water softening setting
(If available) is done correctly and correct
amount of detergent is used to prevent
limescale accumulation. Refill the salt
compartment when the salt sensor light
comes on.
Oil and limescale may build up in your
Dishwasher over time. If this occurs:
•
Fill the detergent compartment but do not
load any dishes. Select a programme which
runs at high temperature and run the Dish-
washer empty. If this does not clean your
Dishwasher sufficiently, use a cleaning agent
designed for use with dishwashers.
•
To extend the life of your dishwasher,
clean the appliance regularly on each month
•
Wipe the door seals regularly with a damp
cloth to remove any accumulated residue or
foreign objects.
To remove and clean the filter combination,
turn it counter clockwise and remove it by
lifting it upwards (1).Pull the coarse filter out
of the micro filter (2).Then pull and remove
the metal filter (3).Rinse the filter with lots of
water until it is free of residue. Reassemble
the filters. Replace the filter insert, and rotate
it clockwise (4).
•
Never use your dishwasher without a
filter.
•
Incorrect fitting of the filter will reduce the
washing effectiveness.
•
Clean filters are necessary for proper
running of the machine.
