Cleaning the inside of the machine
The dishwasher tub is made of stainless steel and is kept
clean through normal use. However, if you have hard
water, limescale deposits may form in the dishwasher. If
this happens, run the Platters & Pans program with high
temperature and two tablespoons of citric acid or
commercially available dishwasher cleaner in the
detergent compartment (with no dishes in the machine).
