Tricity Bendix DH 088, Instruction Book

12

Clean the external surfaces of the machine and control panel
with a damp soft cloth. If necessary use only neutral
detergents. Never use abrasive products, scouring pads or
solvent (acetone, trichloroethylene etc....). 

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 programme 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.

Cleaning the central filters

(After each wash)

Inspect the central filters (B) and (C) and remove any scraps of
food with a brush, under running water.
Filters (B) and (C) are both removed by lifting up the outer one
(B) (pulling the central funnel upwards); the smaller filter (C)
can be removed by pressing the two tongues (D).
Once cleaned, refit the filters by pressing them down until they
click into place.

Cleaning the large filter

(Every week)

Clean the large filter (A) on both sides under running water,
using a brush.
To take it out, remove the spray arm by pressing the two
tongues (E), turn the ring (F) anticlockwise and then slide the
whole part out. 
Refit the filter following the
above instructions in reverse
order.

The dishwasher must not be used without filters.
Incorrect repositioning and fitting of the filters will
produce poor washing results.
Cleaning the filters is vital to ensure correct operation of
the machine.

To ensure a correct working of the dishwasher, NEVER try
to remove the upper spray arm.

If residues of soil have clogged the holes in the upper spray
arm, remove them with a toothpick.

Prolonged periods of non-operation 

If you are not using the machine for any period of time you are
advised to: 
1. Unplug the appliance and then turn off the water. 
2. Fill the rinse aid dispenser. 
3. Leave the door ajar to prevent the formation of any 

unpleasant smells. 

4. 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 appliance 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 hoses.
4. Pull the machine out together with the hoses. 
Avoid over tilting the machine during transportation.
