Care and maintenance
Checking and cleaning the
spraying arms
The nozzles in the spraying arm may calcify

the nozzles regularly after each cycle and
clean them if required.
1. Empty both racks and remove the lower
rack.
2. Pull the lower wash arm up and off.

3. The upper spraying arm is affixed using a
bayonet closure. To remove the spraying
arm, hold the two serrated bayonet
grips (32) still and turn the spraying arm
clockwise.
4. Clean the nozzles under running water.
5. Affix the spraying arm again after cleaning.
The spraying arm must be firmly affixed
and must be able to rotate freely.
Complete cleaning
In well-stocked supermarkets and drugstores,
you will find special dishwasher cleaning
products. Cleaning the appliance using these
products takes place when the dishwasher is
empty and is very intensive. You should clean
the dishwasher in this way from time to time.
When doing so, please note the manufactur-
er instructions on the packaging.
To prevent limescale deposits, please follow
the instructions for the correct setting of the
appliance (rinse aid and salt) (see “Dish-
washer detergents, rinse aids and dishwash-
er salts” on page EN-13).
Protection against frost
damage
Position the dishwasher in an area which is
protected from frost, if possible. If this is not
possible, protect the dishwasher against frost
as follows. You will need a shallow dish or a
pan as well as a sponge.
1. Disconnect the mains plug from the socket
or switch off the fuse.
2. Close the tap and unscrew the inlet
hose (27).
3. Let the water from the inlet hose flow
completely into the dish.
4. Remove the (20) filters.
5. Remove the water from the sump floor
with the help of a sponge.
