8. CLEANING AND
MAINTENANCE
Cleaning your dishwasher is important to
maintain the machine’s service life
Make sure that the water softening setting
(If available) is done correctly and correct
amount of detergent is used to prevent
limescale accumulation. Refill the salt
compartment when the salt sensor light
comes on.
Oil and limescale may build up in your
Dishwasher over time. If this occurs:
• Fill the detergent compartment
but do not load any dishes. Select
a programme which runs at high
temperature and run the Dishwasher
empty. If this does not clean your
Dishwasher sufficiently, use a
cleaning agent designed for use with
dishwashers.
• To extend the life of your dishwasher,
clean the appliance regularly on each
month
• Wipe the door seals regularly with a
damp cloth to remove any accumulated
residue or foreign objects.
8 .1. Filters
Clean the filters and spray arms at least
once a week. If any food waste remains
or foreign objects on the coarse and
fine filters, remove them and clean them
thoroughly with water.
