Spray arms
Holes and bearings can sometimes
become blocked. Remove any debris
using a pin or the like. The spray arms
also have holes underneath.
To facilitate cleaning you can remove the
spray arms. Remember to fit them firmly
back into place afterwards.
Lower spray arm
• Pull the lower spray arm straight up to
release it.
Upper spray arm
1 Pull out the upper basket.
2 Unscrew the spray arm bearings
counterclockwise to remove the spray
arm from the upper basket.
The door and the door seal
Regularly clean the sides of the door and
the door seal. Use a slightly damp cloth
(with a little cleaner if necessary).
The dishwasher tub
The dishwasher tub is made of stainless
steel and is kept clean through normal
use.
Limescale deposits
If you have hard water, limescale deposits
may build up in the dishwasher. If this
happens, run a self-cleaning programme
with two tablespoons of citric acid in the
detergent compartment (with no dishes in
the machine). See Self-cleaning
programme in the chapter Using the
dishwasher.
Front panel
Keep the buttons clean and free from
grease. Wipe them clean with a dry or
slightly damp cloth. Never use cleaners –
they can scratch the surface. Use the
main power switch to turn off the
dishwasher before cleaning the buttons
to avoid activating any buttons
unintentionally.
Unblocking the drainage pump
If the dishwasher still contains water after
the programme has finished, something
may be blocking the drainage pump. Such
items are easily removed.
1 Turn off the machine using the main
power switch and unplug it from the
wall socket.
2 Remove the coarse filter and the fine
filter.
3 Scoop out the water from the
dishwasher tub.
