frost precaution
Avoid placing the dishwasher in a location where the temperature is below 0°C. If your appliance is
left in an unheated place over the winter, you are advised to:
1. Disconnect the unit from the water inlet.
2. Turn on the unit. Select any washing cycle and let it run for 1 minute only. This will allow all the
excessive water that remains in the unit to drain out.
3. Disconnect from the mains.
4. Empty the dishwasher.
5. Close the dishwasher’s door.
6. Disconnect the unit from the water drain. Use a suitable receptacle to catch any residual water
in the pipes.
Should you encounter any difficulties with the above steps, please ask a service technician
for assistance.
