6. Care and Maintenance
Wash arm maintenance:
If you see that the wash arms are not
turning easily, remove the arm(s) as
needed – excessive removal of wash arms
can reduce service life. Both the upper and
lower arms are pressure mounted.
To remove the upper arm, pull down and to
remove the lower arm, pull up. Rinse under
a tap, clear obstructions from outlet holes
and reassemble.
6.5 Cleaning the unit
To clean outer surfaces and the decal covering the touchscreen, use a soft cloth moistened
with soap and water or a surface disinfectant. Do not use harsh cleaning chemicals.
To clean the chamber, use the “Cleaning” function available in the user menu with 0.5 L of
vinegar or citric acid in the chamber. See section 4.8 for details.
NOTE:
Every 25 cycles, the user will be reminded to run a chamber cleaning cycle.
Press OK to continue the selected wash cycle but remember to run a chamber cleaning
cycle at the next available opportunity.
6.6 Preparing the unit for shipping
If preparing the unit for transport or storage, waste water should be removed from the
sump. Waste water in the unit may contain biological contaminants. From the Setup menu,
select the Prepare for Shipping function. The unit will pump all the waste water from the
sump. If a small amount remains, soak it up with absorbent material. Wear disposable
rubber gloves. Dispose of absorbent material according to biological waste disposal
regulations.
If the unit is without power, use the drain tube located under the front of the unit in the
middle to drain the water from the chamber and system. Then unlock the door using the
door lever (see section 4.9) and remove the coarse filter and fine filter (see section 6.4) and
use absorbent material to soak up any water remaining in the sump.
